The install of hood stack components went much smoother than the removal of the EGR, ASV, and DPF. Although - Mounting the hood stack is going to be a two person job as someone is going to have to hold it from the bottom in order to get the clamp on at the flange coming off of the turbo.
The code that was thrown was a code P2101 code, this code has been resolved and another video is going to be released on how we did that!
Overall, I am enjoying the hood stack A LOT. It is turning a lot of heads and from the short amount of time between doing the work and posting the videos I have already had multiple people stop me in parking lots asking me to start the car or what engine was in it, etc. I am loving it, I had no idea what I was missing. Although - this car is 100% going to need some engine mounts soon as I can now see how much movement the engine has

What did you do to get the check engine light off in the globe plug to stop flashing
There is an update video that I put out, but Malone (Tunezilla) initially didn’t tune out the ASV! So the check engine light was on for it. No big deal and they got it settled quick
I'm thinking of doing the same hood stack and tone to my TDI but I am curious about what it has done to your fuel economy? Right now I get 35-45mpg, and I am worried it'll drastically degrease fuel economy.
Hey man appreciate the comment! Make sure to give the channel a like and subscribe. Out of the jetta videod it average 40-45 depending on how i am driving. My fiancé drives it now and is easier on it, so it gets a little better than when i drive it lol
These videos helped me hood stack mine just finished today only thing different I did than you was used a tunezilla tune instead of Malone
Hey man, thanks for the comment! Make sure to like and sub to the channel!
Very happy my video could help someone in their wrench turning. How are you liking it? If it is too loud make sure to give my other video a watch I threw a "muffler" in it to make it a little more manageable on the highway, here is the link: th-cam.com/video/nqgqxF3mfiE/w-d-xo.htmlsi=qvO1lSuhyRTzkj4m
Tunezilla is malone but tunezilla is their new name.
@@NRCThings I love it just threw the bigger turbo upgrade from darkside developments in it and it’s twice as fast now spins tires at 30 mph lmao. Been about 2-3 months since I finished and I couldn’t be happier definitely a head turner!
Do you get fumes inside the vehicle alot. Thought about doing it but the dump is right at the fresh air inlet to the cab and figured the exhaust would blow in the window all the time if windows were down.
Thanks for the comment, make sure to like and sub! With the windows down, yes. Windows closed, AC on, and with re-circulate on there are no fumes in the car. Hope that helps!
If the tube is not hooked up is it necessary to block off?
Yes
Did you have any issues with deleting the asv?
No sir. No issues at all on my end. Thanks for the comment, make sure to like and sub to the channel all the support helps. If you have any other issues and questions just give me a shout!
Palm trees must be south texas? I live in south texas as well. I own a 12 Passat tdi 6sp with Malone stage 2 and rawtek exhaust. Mine doesn’t sound as nice as urs though 👍🏼
Yes sir! South Texas. Nice, where are you out of? Mine is a little loud lol. Thanks for the comment! Make sure to give us a like and subscribe
Gets short ram, don’t know why but it’ll make turbo noises louder
Hey man, appreciate your video🤙, I'm relatively new to Texas, any troubles with local cops?
Hey man, that is why I post them! Hope to help at least one person with each video I post. No trouble with the cops here for the stack, oddly enough I have been pulled over four times since I put it in but never for the stack lol.

those big hole saws are cordless killers
Thanks for the comment, make sure to like and sub! That hole saw was no joke. Pretty damn expensive too, but it got the job done. Definitely the most stressful part about the whole install was make sure I was cutting the hole in the correct spot
How did you go about getting that glow plug light to stop blinking? TUNEZILLA told me that they cannot tune out the primary EGT sensor and that is what’s causing it. They told me to install it into the hood stack pipe but I don’t really want to cut into it. How did you fix yours?
Hi Ivan, sorry for the late response. I would refer you to the following video that I posted: th-cam.com/video/hYIxS3N8OyQ/w-d-xo.html let me know if that works for you! Make sure to give us a like and follow, every little bit helps us grow!
How loud is it at idle? I’d want to do this to save money but is it too obnoxious? Louder or quieter than straight piped v8 deisel?
Hi Jake, thanks for the comment! Make sure to give us a like on the video and subscribe to the channel. I am not going to lie, the car is pretty loud with just the stack. I drive 100 miles round trip to work and it got a little annoying. Although - I have already found a solution. I ordered a baffle type of muffler insert to put into the stack. I have a video in the works on that, but have had no time to edit here lately. It makes it much more manageable. Comparing it to my straight piped 6.7, it is louder. That is due to the short run of exhaust, but it was expected
@@NRCThings what baffle did you end up ordering?
@@malakimetcalf03 Car Chemistry Exhaust Insert 3DI25R off of Summit. Also has part number CCI-3DI25R listed. Thanks for the comment! Make sure to give us a sub!
@@malakimetcalf03 editing video of that right now actually
What size is the vband off the back of the turbo?
I'm at the same place. I've been fussing with the vband for hours, it seems to be a hair to small. I have the bolt almost all the way threaded out but it won't pull tight enough to slip down in it's notch. I wonder if Darkside sent me the wrong part.
I might just run to the parts store and get a longer bolt...
Its not a run of the mill vband, its a 2.5"-sh sized marmon vband. I wanted to know before tearing into the exhaust but went ahead and gutted the dpf instead of trying to make my own. Alot of work, but worth it.
It’s a two person job. Thread it all the way out and get somebody to hold the stack from the bottom. It is TOUGH. I tried to do it by myself and fought it for two hours with no luck
Also - proper size is 75mm. At least that is what is the direct replacement. The VW part number is 1K0 253 725 B. That is right below 3"
Was the DPR and EGR removed and the block off plate installed on the other end of the EGR pipe that goes to that intake flap right there near the intake manifold in the front? Otherwise if you have hot exhaust gas going to your blockoff plate thats not a good thing to trap it all in the DPF/EGR and can cause serious problems.
😂😂😂😂😂
Do you need to Install a block off plate for the pipe that was removed along with the dpf?
Hey man thanks for the comment. Which pipe are you talking about? The stack replaces all of the DPF components, and the one block off plate I installed was the only one needed. I hope that helps! The “pipe” that needs the block off plate is the cross over tube that runs from the manifold to the EGR
@@NRCThings I was talking about the egr cooler pipe I believe. The one from the egr valve to the back of the engine. I put the blank on the pipe that connected to the egr. Wasn't sure if I need to blank off the hole that's on the back of the engine, from when I took the dpf and what not out.
@@malakimetcalf03 if you go to my removal video it may show the pipe you’re talking about. If you’re removing the cooler completely you won’t have any other block off plates other than the one for the cross over tube that runs from the drivers side of the manifold around the front to the EGR valve. We may be talking about the same one
@@NRCThings Yeah you're video showed you just capping it on the egr valve side, but I believe that pipe runs from the egr valve to the egr cooler? Then ig out of the cooler to the exhaust. I may be wrong. But anyway there's a small curvy pipe i took out with my dpf. Now it's an open hole idk if I need to plug it or what.

Big balls to do this in Texas with car inspections.
dont you have friends to help u pass the inspection?
No more inspections in Texas in 2025 only emissions in bigger counties
Inspections are gone January 1
How are you dealing with rain? I want to hood stack mine but having to possibly cover it every time makes me not want to
That is exactly what I do at the moment, it really isn't a daunting task! I love it, and it turns a lot of heads. I appreciate the comment, make sure to give the channel a like and sub! Really helps us grow
Put a condom on it. Or a tractor flap and if you live in California maybe put a lock on it 😂

I have a mk 7 golf sportwagen tdi that ive hood stacked lol, I'm currently driving without a hood since i haven't done the holesaw cut yet, any tips for it?
Hey man! Thanks for the comment, make sure to like and subscribe to the channel! My advice - measure 15 times and cut once. It’s a daunting task but it isn’t impossible. My stack had some room to rotate (forward toward engine, back towards firewall). When doing your measurements have it dead nuts centered so if you’re off on either direction you can rotate on the turbo flange. Keep in mind, when the hood closes all of the way the stack moves back towards the firewall. I’ll be it moves every bit of 1/4”. Do it with the same size hole saw I did and send it. Good luck buddy! Let me know how it goes
@@NRCThingsey sorry for the late reply, got the hood drilled and i ended up going with just a 4" hole because i got a dogbone mount and transmission mount upgrade so the exhaust hardly moves even under power. In the past month everyones loved it when they see it haha ill have to make a video of it all when I finally take it to a drag strip
🤙🏻
Thanks for the comment Peter! Woke this car up, just waiting on the DSG tuner now. Make sure to give the channel a follow!
