Heck yeah mk6 content 🤘🏼
Craig i love your personality it brings so much life to this type of informative content
MK6 is GTI perfection
Thanks for adding the 2 things at the end.
I went stage 2.my high mileage stock clutch felt perfectly fine..for about 2 hours.oops lol
Already have the exhaust on my cart! hope it arrive soon
Yeah I have all of this on my 2016 Golf R and it absolutely rips.
I'm gonna try a few of these mods on my GTI 🔥🔥
That golf looks Hella sweet
Thanks
Heres my 2014 VW GLI MK6 setup
Unitronic stage 1 ECU/TCU tune - adds 50 hp, 100 tq for $900
034 Motorsport aluminum dogbone mount
034 Motorsport solid rubber engine/tranny mounts
034 Motorsport rear swaybar - the car turns on a dime
Bilstein b4 - upgrading to B6s shortly
P3 Cars digital vent display
I have 233K miles and change oil every 5K miles with LM Molygen
Bro, your hair... Looks fabulous! 😉
Nice mk6, for me the best bang is a stage 1 off the shelf tune
For those curious, like I was in the beginning of modding, all these upgrades take about 1 second off 0-60 time. My quickest is 6.2. Not the fastest, but the most fun and the best looking, and still a hell of a lot cheaper than the competition!
6.2? Do you live in high elevation? I run a 5.6 on pump gas and a stage 1+ tune
@@tallboiturbos6487 Not at all. What I noticed recently is how bad my GTI, and just me personally, are at launching. The tires always spin. These tires don't grip well. I think that has to add at least .5.
Recently added new motor and trans mounts as well but 0-60 is still the same. Any thoughts? I'm all ears.
Stage 2, 91oct COBB tune, APR cold air intake, turbo back exhaust, plus others.
PC William are u just running like normal tires, or some high performance tires
PC William or get some engine mounts or tranny mounts it'll help it from that horrible bounce off the launch
@@tallboiturbos6487 I actually have both engine and tranny from 034 motorsports. The winter has gotten really cold, it's likely a factor. I thought the tires were decent, they came with the car. Mechanics haven't said anything bad about them.
Dope!
MK6 DSG w K04 Turbo, IE K04 tune, Turbo back exhaust, intercooler and radiator upgrades, intake and bov. What should I do next? Injectors? Throttle body? LSD for transmission? I was told catch cans ruin this particular motor by Brink Motorsports here in Austin, TX.
The upgraded clutch kit is for the manual right? How well does the DSG hold up with these upgrades?
nice, im not sure if you covered this part of the build but whats the width of those wheels ? ?
This editing style is great! Reminds me of donut media.
Jobe used to work for ECS Tuning before going to Donut
Do I need to pair the intercooler with a specialized tune or will my eurodyne stage 2 tune work with it well?
Shoulda posted the bill ... lol!! This is coming from 20 dubbin.
Hell yeah and nice hair No Negativity, thanks for these tips! Very helpfull
blow off valve is pure cosmetic or it does increase turbo life time?
does this work apply to the standard mk6 golf as well?
Is this clutch kit meant for standard or automatic?
We recommend a tune that's no longer available
What kind of coil overs on the gti behind u
Hi, can You tell me where can I find that diffuser bcs it looks very beautiful
Mk6 dreams💭💭💭💭💭💭
Do I need new clutch all with these ??
May you post list of all mods on this GTI?
Is that the R front bumper? You sexy bastard... Been drooling over that piece for months.
Dude your hair looks dope.
you mentioned the clutch/flywheel....how would this work out for DSG? I am possibly getting a new daily and finally thinking about modifying my Mk6.
I think we are good to go as DGS owners go. As Long as your clutches in your transmission are good. LsD would be the best upgrade for a DSG
The stock DSG can already hold a good amount of power, but if you're concerned about that, or just want to upgrade your DSG, get a TCU Tune. That will not only allow the transmission to handle more torque, but you'll also get faster, more aggressive shifts.
Mk6 gang gang!
It's just so annoying how these "basic" upgrades will run you about 3k.
you can always do it in stages! plus, if you build a wish list, it will notify you when there are sales/drops in pricing so you can save a bit on it.
Gotta pay to play!
@@jesussalgado7210 yep... the price is about right, there is a lot involved, development, regulations, testing, marketing, sales and support.
NAME OF THAT REAR DIFFUSER? ITS SICK
Do you have a link for the ecs turbo back set up
Do I have to tune the car If I wanted to do the full exhaust?
once you do more than a cat-back, yes. the emissions system gets unhappy when you don't tune for different cats.
im looking at getting these mods and im wandering if these in your video would fit a standard mk6? anyone know if they do before i purchase? thanks!
Fitment info should be on the product pages on our site!
Where can I find that diffuser? @ECS Tuning
Is it "soon" yet?
I have the ecs intake installed on my mk6 jetta and the anti vibration couple keeps dry rotating. I'm on my second one.
are you using an air filter recharge kit at regular intervals?
@@ecstuning yup I do one with every oil change.
@@xboxman309 Hmm.. its the anti vibe damper that is the problem?
@@ecstuning I believe so it the rubber fitting that in the middle of the upper and lower intake tubes.
I want one of these. Just creamed a deer in my E34 540i so I think its time to get back into something that isnt 30 years old
That sucks. The e34 540/6 is such a great car I owned 2 m sports and regret selling them quite a bit. They make great daily drivers especially with some mods.
@@pdee886Mine was an auto and I miss its looks and sound, but I did pick up a Mk6 GTI Autobahn with APR stage 1, stage 2 clutch and new OEM turbo and its a lot more fun
@@Captain_Brown_Beard mk6 is definitely a nice ride. Can be made to be quick with a few mods and totally not uncommon to get around 100whp just out of simple ‘bolt-ons.’ He fact that your e34 was auto would’ve killed it for me. Then again I can’t stand automatics as a whole. I mean sure, they have their place in certain cars/ applications but I’m a three pedal guy through and through. The e34 540/6 with a ltw flywheel, decent clutch and a 3.15lsd which you can get from the early e32 750 (need to swap pinion flanges,) really makes them fun to drive.
@@pdee886 I had a that 3.15 LSD and never got a chance to install it even though it probably wouldnt have made much of a difference for the auto. I sold it recently for $800 lol. Insurance gave me $4300 for my e34
BTW. I had that 540i for 8 years so I was looking for somethine else anyways. Only had 100k miles on it too when I hit the deer :(
He forgot to upgrade the timing chain “plastic” guide... ps that snaps; those upgrades would be useless.... when the car is stranded by the side of the road...
Amen bro. That happened to me, and bc the camshaft had play...well it got chipped along the block. So i had to get another camshaft, block fixed, new timing chain kit with new tensioner, and oil pump. All bc of that little piece.
unfortunately you are right i wish i knew before!
Just recently bought a mk6, can you explain what that is?
@@RIS3N1 The timing chain is a chain, attached to gears that spin and are synchronized to crankshaft and camshaft which makes valves open and close. The tensioner...well keeps tension on the chain our engines EA888 are prone to have timing chain/tensioner issues. There was a class lawsuit for this for timing chains failing before 50k miles. Mine failed at 48k. But this lawsuit ended in 2019 so they wont reimburse you or fix it anymore. I was too late because it happened in 2020.
@@RIS3N1 timing chain for the engine, just look it up bro.
Would my mk6 DSG also support all this power?
100% , no upgrades needed to dsg
I have 105xxx miles on the car with everything he just said and the dsg is totally fine
That's what others enthusiasts say off the bat when purchasing a GTI, DSG handles tunes and upgrades better. Manuals need improvements.
On that topic though, I am getting 034's street density motor mount, for various reasons. Browse the forums for reviews. I think HYDE16 had the most thorough review.
What happened to Zach he got sick of you guys too and went to donut media 😂
what exhaust is this ?
That is our MK6 3.0" exhaust system which can be found here: bit.ly/3AnpS0C
What if my gti is a v4?
Mk5 Jetta 2.5 please
Craig Daugherty, thank you, I checked out the “$550 P944 ecs after hours” video. Pretty cool car
Can anyone argue that you don't really need a catch can on this platform? I don't have one and I know of a buddy who doesn't on his K04. They're rather pricey at $400
i mean... you can not run a catch can, but you will sacrifice a percentage of the total possible clean air you can deliver to your engine since the PCV system will send unfiltered crankcase pressure through the intake, which includes oil and carbon particulate. that's what gets built up on intake valves in DIT engines since there is no fuel spraying across the valve to clean it. Basically, yes, you can get away with no catch can, but you'll end up paying for it in the long run with carbon cleaning.
@@ecstuning ahhh, gotcha. Explains a lot! Are catch cans essentially all the same, then? Im sure the fancy braided hoses are going to bring the price up! I'd go for an ECS one as Im happy with my stage 2 ECS with SMF combo.
@@stepsidelandscapinglawnsol3093 good question! No - not all catch cans are created equally. The cheap ones on the market generally dont have the baffling internally needed to capture suspended particles. Head over to blog.ecstuning.com and search 'catch can' I explain how they work and why a quality design is important in that article.
Hi , so am mohammad for kuwait .
And my car is a golf gti mk6 .. 2011
If i wont to ordar form you can you delivrat to kuwait bro
Your hair look stupid 💯❤️ all love bro
Craig, I had to stop you at 2:28. As a potential customer, I do not have an unlimited budget, or the facilities (which include a lift of course). I do not believe that fancy airbox will give that much gain on it's own. I'm not about to rip the entire front end of the car to buy an OEM placement IC. The hp/tq curves for stage 2 are very peaky. I don't think that exhaust flows as much as it could; branching out into dual 90 degree bends. I don't know what the purity thing is all about.
I'd much rather see how a petrol head like myself can make an efficient machine, capable of actually performing in AutoX or Trackdays without the hype, silliness and over-expense, please. Thanks for trying. BTW, I'm a retired Mechanical Designer and former ASE Technician
Golf Made in Germany 🇩🇪😍

2.5l i5 is much more reliable.. I wish it was available from 2020 Audi RS3
Vw👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👌👌👌
31bhp from an intake 🤔
I feel like i lost some hp with mine lmao, sound is great tho
Do a mk2 one 😂
Craig Daugherty basically
Craig Daugherty you mean “how to make your mrk 2 have 100hp”
ko4 turbo...
shhhh that version of mods is next. we also have a parts breakdown for that route on blog.ecstuning.com just search mk6 and enjoy some content there too!
Your hair looks Oddly nice
I'll make sure Craig sees this
@@ecstuning lol
MK6 is the last great GTI
Clubsport
Why do y’all disregard the GLI ???? Everyone doesn’t like the hatch , some of love our sedans.
1:25 "the best bang for your buck is going to be a full turbo back system"
What? Do we have different definitions of 'bang for your buck'? Don't ruin your reputation with bad advice in the content now.
Think most Mk6 fans know a downpipe is all thats really needed, which would make that alone the 'bang for your buck' mod and a catback more 'cosmetic'
that's fair - to clarify bang for your buck, you would get all the benefits of actually improving power/exhaust flow while having something nice, shiny, and ear-pleasing all at once. plus, its cheaper to do the whole system at once than it is to do it in pieces.
I need a mk6 first :[ fuck covid
Yes we would like you to spend 42,000 on upgrades. Just basic...
Almost 90hp maybe?
Why go through all the details and be sketchy about mentioning the important part first?
Intake and intercooler without a tuner? 0 horsepower gain
Catback or muffler without a downpipe? 0 horsepower gain
Downpipe without a tuner? 0 horsepower gain
There's no need to bother with any of the parts on these without a tuner and if you're hesitant about putting a tuner on it then don't bother with any of it, waste of money.
This is simply not true. To MAXIMIZE potential yes, but to have any increase, no. Would be beneficial to actually know what you're talking about before you comment.
I get what you're saying but I get enough pleasure from a car that "sounds" good even though it might not be any faster.
So if one were to go ahead with all these upgrades and didn't get a tune, they would see 0 performance gains ? Yeah tune maximizes potential but I find it hard to believe one would not see even a little bit more power if they did all these upgrades without a tune
@@uMadness Maybe 10-20hp? Thats alot of money for 10-20hp when you can get a stage 1 without needing any of it for like 600$
@@RyanVier best comment of the day. Just get apr stage 1 and be done. Front wheel drive......
Your hair looks stupid🤣🤣
Seriously though, i would love to try these on my GTI... But i have to get one first
mk6 vw golf gti....not mk6 gti
31hp with an intake... Yeah no lol not buying that one.
Not a real R take off the bumper
its not an R - it's a MK6 GTI that was converted with all Genuine European VW mk6 R bumpers before the R was available in the states! In the long history of VW modifications, converting to more desirable body components is incredibly popular.
Thats a mk6 R not gti
