So, what we learned today is that a Golf R in the wet on Cup2 tyres doesn't go any faster, no matter how much power you throw at it. Ash could have had a lie in. Lol
I have a golf gti mk8 and considering this race chip mods, l have THE new inlet pipe by racing Line and the r600 intake sistem, you thing at THE end is a good project or not?
warranty is invalid plus insurance unless you declare you have modified your car, and of course pay a few hundred pound extra for insurance for the year
haha! It seems to work fairly well to be fair, on the road though perhaps not so much in the upper maps and in the wet traction is a limitation rather than output for speed
It was fastest in comfort/eco mode without the RaceChip on, likely due to the increased output meant more wheel-slip, so a lower output was preferable for these specific conditions. If there was more grip available, no doubt more output = better times.
haha! We have actually just found a test site which would allow us to do this type of testing without the risk of losing our license or putting the general public at risk

Hahahaha, you are absolutely correct Steve 😂😂😂
Nice video. Too bad it was wet and cold. Looking forward to seeing the Racingline parts.
Thank you and thanks for watching, dropping next week!
Not the best advert for a racechip! But appreciate the honesty.
A rated wet grip tyres and a remap should suffice then!
I think even then they would struggle! Ideally we'd need to test again in more dry conditions to give a fair test
You should try the Racingline PCM now it’s out. See how it goes vs the Racechip
We'd LOVE to try it!
Would one of the videos be racinglines own piggyback ecu? Be interested to see what you think to that over the race chip.
I don't believe it's part of the shipment they sent us, we'll reach out to 'em and see if they can send it down to test.

We're going to be doing a video with the BM4 soon, so stay tuned for that!
Hello, I have at home a cupra ateca 2021 gen 4 300cv and a cupra formentor vz 310cv, would the same racechip be used for both engines?
It is similar, would you like to order one?
Is it reasonable to assume this would work for the US spec '22 Arteon?
Not sure on that one, we only really focus on UK/EU spec cars. Best to ask RaceChip
Don't they have APR in the UK?
Yes! But sadly nobody in the world has unlocked these ECUs for tuning as of yet
What do these modifications do to a cars manufacturers warranty?
You'd have to ask the warranty provider that question as we don't provide it
warranty is invalid plus insurance unless you declare you have modified your car, and of course pay a few hundred pound extra for insurance for the year
Did you do an episode on wheels and suspension?
Yes! Checkout the MK8R playlist we have
That lag you feel could be torque limiter and not clutch slip.
It could be!
What was the cost please ??
What would you like the cost for?
Shite these boxes, tried one on my 7.5R when I first got it, made about 12 bhp on the dyno, tested in all modes. Waste of money
haha! It seems to work fairly well to be fair, on the road though perhaps not so much in the upper maps and in the wet traction is a limitation rather than output for speed
Lol and praying for no rain in the next video.
Definitely! Kinda hard in winter, haha!
Did I hear right that it was fastest in ECO mode on a stock setup?
It was fastest in comfort/eco mode without the RaceChip on, likely due to the increased output meant more wheel-slip, so a lower output was preferable for these specific conditions.
If there was more grip available, no doubt more output = better times.
Is a dq 381 ?
Yup! 7-speed wet clutch
Mk8 r with racechip vs amg a45s
We are ready to RACE!
You go to the mud to test the 0-60 times and launch control? Seriously? :D
haha!
Waiting
Enjoyed?
why did you not do a 100-200km/h?
Speed limit on UK roads is ≈ 20mph - 70mph

Tanks Richard!
