Great video. Super excited I'll be getting mine done during the week. It'll be interesting to see if i get the same noticeable performance gain as mine is a manual transmission.
Got the Mercedes A250 at the moment, don't know whether to get a golf R and APR tune or an A45 Facelift... This video is swaying me towards the Golf lol
Bro they are both great cars with very different characteristics, I’d say test drive both and make ur decision however u will never get the feel for a golf Rs full potential if you test drive a stock one.. stock to stage 2 is like diving a car in a different league 👍🏽
Iwas thinking about A45. Before i heard its stiff/numb boring steering. It will for sure be fast, but worth the extra cash.. Doubt it, i would rather pay extra cash for an M3 in that case. I however bought the 2017 GTI Clubsport (40 Year Anniversary) For Exactly same cash as the Standard GTI. It being almost like a Golf R, with much of the same internals was a great deal. However since its a Special Edition, its not on sale anymore.. Check it on my channel! But as ending words id say Get a Golf R - Then get the Japanese made IPE Valvetronic, Stage 1 or 2 engine + DSG & its Game Over for Most of the Competition! Now go check the videos on my Fancy GTI Clubsport !!! 😎 👍
Chris Robinson golf R stage 2 would beat a stage 1 A45, the slight power increase with the a45 is lost to the golf Rs DSG gear box, the golf Rs gear box is defo better and compliments the engine far better than the a45 in my opinion.. but again the a45 is a force to be reckoned with once tuned up properly
Freemode-AJ I’m guessing ur stage 1 right now then? Bro just buy a decat down pipe and get the stage 2, you will get a nice little sound upgrade and a weapon of a car with the new stage 2 👍🏽
On the bogging down on launch control bit, have you had the Haldex filter serviced? When it clogs up it makes the car really decline on launch control, common problem on the 7R
OFFICIALLY GASSED - OG Oh good hopefully be an easy fix. Sick videos as always mate keep them coming 👍🏻 And if you’re ever up north, swing by for any detailing 👀👌🏻
Make sure the gauze was cleaned out, prone for getting blocked, like a 5 min job and new fuild again and see what it's like. Mine was done at 40k but the gauze was clean lol wierd
Yo bro, give me a recommendation, i've got the Arteon 4M 2.0 TSI - yea you're going to have to google it, its unusual but same engine as the Golf R. Need something nice but reversable
Reece Vaughan ah yes I know the car... so bro a tuning box is Guna be your best bet if it’s Guna be instantly reversible.. not everyone’s cup of tea iv used them and had no real issues, look at a JB4 tuning box or maybe a DTUK box 👍🏽
Ricardo Simpkins so far so good mate, these engines are capable of a lot more power on stock internals etc so it’s fairly safe, 5k oil service intervals for peace of mind, but yes no issues..
Love the video, got the stage 2 update done on mine today, does what it says on the tin really, 2nd and 3rd gear appear to warp time 0-100 in under 7secs??
@@officially_gassed Does that pass the yearly checkup in the UK? Sounds great, I have a 09 2.0TSI Scirocco with a miltek non res catback and it doesn't pop like this. This has to be done or could be done with a tune right?
Zanic L3 Officially it won’t pass a yearly check lol but if u know someone u can get it to pass 😉 yes it’s all in the mapping bro APR have now added a pop and crackle map for when ur in Race mode
@@officially_gassed you sure pal? I knew quite a few people on the 7R FB page who had it on before that race. Hence why I mentioned on there that I didn't think yours was running as strongly as some of the other Stage 2 cars on there when running the Fiesta and assumed you had the older software. I don't run APR, but I knew there was more in it ;-) You was two up and he was fully stripped, so was hardly a fair battle anyway. Be good to re-run and see if it does better. This time go solo :-) This is why a Dragy is useful for seeing any changes in mods/maps. But dyno doesn't always work and placebo can take over
VtecAbuser yea man new software just came out last week so it’s literally brand new.. ur right man power to wait was mad on that fiesta and as u say I was two up he was on his jack jones.. and yes man bro I’m way over due to buy a draggy, watch this space!! 👊🏽
"It's Spider POOP !! - I SHIT u Not !!!" 😄 👍
Damnn wtf you're Golf R is quick asf 🤣
This channel is deadass ode underrated
Now you're really GASSED UP 😀😀🙌
Nice jame
You look more than chuffed, a bit *GASSED* actually 👀😂😂👍🏽
Dennis .:R 😂😂😂 bro u gota go stage 2 man the levels are high now!!
Yes my G loving your videos man - you got the same map as me now v2.6 mental shit 😀
ASRmann thanks bro! Mad ain’t it!

OK here's my feedback after driving it home from the workshop today. I'd say at
Sorry that's my wife's account for some reason, haha
Your videos are SICK keep up the hard work, your cars on a level proper gassing people up 👆
Jamie's officially gassed 💪 haha. Lad
Sick mate. Made me wanna get a golf R now 😂😂
Awesome video
So tempted to get a Golf R
Love watching your vids, on my 4th in a row! Where did you get your plate from??
DVLA bro 👍🏽
OFFICIALLY GASSED - OG nice 👌🏽, I best start looking
What happened to that other video of some of you guys meeting, was an X5, a TT and a Fiesta which had no passenger seat remember :D
the golf r is nice but your a45 was sick, nice plate👍🏾
Any problems with the APR tune ? I am thinking getting one . Thanks
What 0-60 that pushing now? Fuck I’m jealous definitely the best golf R I’ve seen

Sick vid as usual
Great video mate. I'm in two minds should I get a Stage 2 map done or a Rumus exhaust system with downpipe?
Freemode-AJ I’m guessing ur stage 1 right now then? Bro just buy a decat down pipe and get the stage 2, you will get a nice little sound upgrade and a weapon of a car with the new stage 2 👍🏽
@@officially_gassed My car is stock mate I have the 7.5R.
Madness skrr skrr 💨💨
On the bogging down on launch control bit, have you had the Haldex filter serviced? When it clogs up it makes the car really decline on launch control, common problem on the 7R
Jack Anderson hey bro, yea the car had the Haldex service by VW back in June this year, done under 5k miles since so hopefully rules that out

Because vw won't clean the gauze unless you specifically ask them to
mr green interesting 🤔
That’s madd no lag at all
Is this new version compatible with mk7 and not just mk7.5?
that number plate looks 🔥
Yes bro🙌
Its poppin like its a popcorn machine!
If you turn up your boots you will produce more heat so you need add more cooling or you will detonate, did they address this??
Junior Graham that’s fine I’m running an Optional uprated front mount intercooler to tackle this very issue.. thanks tho!

Mad one💯
Is there a version of this for the scirocco R?
reidn010 not sure tbh 🤷🏽♂️ there must be an APR flash for the scirocco R
2017 M140i or Golf R 7.5
What BHP has the map added or was it just torque
Jason Elliott not sure yet mate.. I’m
Yet to get it on the dyno..
How's the reliability with the mods and tune?
Ricardo Simpkins so far so good mate, these engines are capable of a lot more power on stock internals etc so it’s fairly safe, 5k oil service intervals for peace of mind, but yes no issues..
Is you dsg tune too?
Yes my car has a DSG tune although there is no update for that as of yet
Love the video, got the stage 2 update done on mine today, does what it says on the tin really, 2nd and 3rd gear appear to warp time 0-100 in under 7secs??
What exhaust setup?
Zanic L3 miltek turbo back with full de cat non resonated 👍🏽

ok cheers
How old are you?😂😂😂. Cool vlogs👏
Sickkk
Oiyh Brouv!
Spider shit 😂😂😂. I thought it was human shit from the pipes 🙈
Good to see you have the latest software on now. Re-race with the Fiesta?
You need to get some Dragy numbers for this car..
VtecAbuser yea man.. however when I raced the fiesta this new V2.6 software hadent been released. But I’m sure there will be a re race soon 😉
@@officially_gassed you sure pal? I knew quite a few people on the 7R FB page who had it on before that race.

Luke Gifford Surrey rolling road 👍🏽
I miss my R 🤣🤣🤣
Each spider poop adds 1bhp.
What mods are u running bro?
Front mount intercooler, intake, VWR turbo elbow, miltek turbo back exhaust with Decat, stage 2 APR software and TCU software 👍🏽
Spider poop. LOL
Please don't comment "get out the wrench and get it done" when you aren't the one who wrenches on your own car.
He said 'get down to wrench'
Not get out the wrench.
As in wrench, the name of the garage.
WeekEnd133 mate open ur ears and listen before you comment something so stupid..
Drinking game. Do a shot every time you hear bruv 😂
Damn this you-tuber doesn't even know how to put his DSG, aka automatic gearbox, in gear @ 10:00 haha
What a pointless and stupid comment.. why waste your time 🤷🏽♂️
Spider shit?Which you now have under your nails.yuck boy
