Did you compare the integrated engineering intercooler with the DO88 here from Sweden? Its supposed to have better flow than Wagner Tunings which also was the biggest one before?
Hey Evan, thanks for the constant motivation. I assure you that those who need it, deeply appreciate it. Have a great day/evening, idk I'm from South Africa
I got bummed out when he said that :( I feel like i learn new things all the time watching you work on masterpieces over the years, thanks to you, I knew how to help others. SOOooo Excited to see the Evo 8 evolve. :)
the thing you said is a turbo speed sensor, it’s actually the diverter valve Evan, it does the same thing as a blow off valve but recirculates into the intake
You're GIVING the car away- the winner gets whatever rims are on it, IMO! If the winner wants to change them, let them do it. No way you can build these giveaways to suit everyone and if folks don't want to enter, that makes it easier to win for those who do! You've done a ton to this car to make it sweet.
Nice to see a VW on the channel ! As an ex VW dealer tech ... once you know how they come apart they are actually really simple and make sense . Also .. haven't gone back and watched the old vids on it but looks like the waterpump is/was leaking by the stain on the oil pan . One last thing ... big difference between old and new watercooled VW owners .
They would really hate their life's if they had to change the new style water pumps 🤣 but I would love to see them do it hahaha. I do them All the time and still hate them
You need a vibrant resonator instead of the stock one, it will give it more bass without being raspy, but the problem is the stock muffler, with it will be quite and without it will be annoying, maybe try a club sport muffler.
@@TheAndy7042 what I'm saying is you need a muffler with a downpipe or else it will sound like shit, I am aware that a downpipe would increase the sound dramatically.
That “Silly” plastic oil pan, is actually really durable and alot better than the usual oil pan you see on a everyday car, dont ask me why i just got taught that at work as im a apprentice
I know working on all these cars is probably stressful. Especially while running a business on top of it. But you are living my dream keep up the awesome work man
OZ Wheels simply look good on everything, from Subaru and VW to Porsches and Lambos That said, I like the look of Rotiforms but they get a lil bit of hate they deserve because they are like 50% reps, heavy and not so good cast quality But I personally like the brand
@@RoliRuli I know the BLQ’s were inspired but I wouldn’t put it as the same category as Reps I feel like it is a difference, but for there cast wheels I know it does come from China but my experience has been good so far 👌🤷♂️
All jokes / jabs aside Evan, I enjoy the content on the GTI. I’ve got a MK7 R myself and am enjoying the heck out of getting it up to my idea of perfect. Just tackled installing all four new rotors and EBC pads and NEVER worked on brakes before that. Going to miss the VW content but keep it up. Thanks for giving it a shot!
Once you work on a VW a few times u know what to expect so u go into a job knowing what weird things and challenging things lie ahead. I bet I could say that same thing if I went to JDM cars.
Check that thermostat housing for leaks or evidence of replacement. That white residue on the oil pan is from coolant. Pretty common on mk7/mk7.5 mqb cars.
Also that that electronic part on the turbo doesn’t monitor turbo speed, it’s a diverter valve. It’s a recirculating system so it diverts extra boost back into the system rather than a blow off valve venting it to atmosphere.
correction* the is38 does not have a turbine speed sensor as that was just released on the mk8, what he pointed to is the diverter valve to release pressure back into the intake when throttle is shut
@@farewell_to_normalcy9352 I love that he pulled the trigger on this car and I’m happy he partnered with these big companies, but man this dude is spreading a lot of misinformation about this platform.
@@toddj4549 He just repeats the same general misinformation everyone does. It's not his fault, he works on many different platforms and I don't expect an wealth of knowledge on this platform. It's still a MK7 build so I support the channel. I knew it was going to be a generic build when I heard Integrated Engineering lmao.
I would say just install an aftermarket muffler and remove the resonator! Thats what I have on my car and I always have people asking whats my setup. I have a catless dp but the difference in sound is very minimal.
I must be one of the very few cause not only do i have a big turbo 1.8t With a 3inch back back! But i run the stock resonator so it like quiet! Just hear the turbo!
Exactly how is a true front mount worse and just might as well run the stock cooler? The stock cooler is thin and sandwiched between two hot heat exchangers. How is that just as good as a thick, aluminum bar and plate intercooler hanging out in the wind at the front of the car with tons of airflow? Just want to understand your reasoning. Why are you running true front mount setups on your other cars?
@WonderWaffle I have an ARM one on my MK6 and a Neuspeed unit on my MK5 with the stock cooler deleted on both. They work great. Very well made and thick with great fin density. I can understand the IE unit working well because of the massive surface area and thick core, but to say a real front mount is as bad or worse than stock is ridiculous.
@WonderWaffle Couldn’t have said it better man I got a CTS fmic for my mk7 and it’s worlds better than the stock one lol I can’t believe people still argue over what’s better, 6 years that this platforms been out
Evan you should start a segment once a week or so called fun facts with Drew. And i would like to see y’all doing more of the work like you use to. I enjoy the channel but i feel like we miss so much. Just something for you to chew on. Either way i am an OG and will watch whatever you put out.
Dude lastnight driving by my store a vw cc that had to be straight piped. And it decel pops for almost 45 seconds straight down shifting to a stoplight. I like pops and bangs tbh but not tuned to do it. Like proper gear shift bangs or 3 4 5 pops on decel from a angry motor. Not some stock shit trying to be a fake race motor. Only constant pops I think should happen is real anti lag. Not fake anti lag sounds
Hi Evan, want to say thank you for your videos and thank you for being you I also suffer from anxiety disorder but your videos help a ton love you man All the way from jamaica🇯🇲🤘🔥
man that car is coming out soo awesome dude!! if i have a job by next month or something i will order a couple things to enter this giveaway. i havent had a car in 6 years which sucks. good luck to who every wins this sick car!!

Your coolant thermostat is leaking I work at audi and see many of them leak I recommend getting it changed 👌🏼

Well Evan these days your OGs still watch you for the “building” process of your cars so please show us how you do installs?
I got bummed out when he said that :( I feel like i learn new things all the time watching you work on masterpieces over the years, thanks to you, I knew how to help others. SOOooo Excited to see the Evo 8 evolve. :)
I want to like it but it’s at 69
Right that why I even clicked on the video was fo watch him install it
Yes more drew. I could listen to him talk about cars for hours
Yes agreed. I wanna hear a back story on this guy. Like education and what experience he has in the automotive world
you might be gay then
@@gearbanginentertainment7476 “gear bangin’ entertainment” is such the definition of gay lmfaoo
@@6z0 ok Mr. Stank, who likes carrots in his mouth..
Throw a 14” ultra vibrant resonator and 3” straight out the back that settled the rasp on mine but still gave it some sound👌🏻
thats what i had to throw on mine, vibrant ultra quiet resonator. Got rid of my rasp on my is38 gti. I got a clubsport s muffler as well though
the thing you said is a turbo speed sensor, it’s actually the diverter valve Evan, it does the same thing as a blow off valve but recirculates into the intake
Yup!!!
Needed some shanks content today , going through a hard time with my dad in the hospital . Thank you Evan
Loved the advice at the end
Keep ur head up man whatever happens it’s all goin to be just find all you can do is ur best to remain strong
@@LimNotSlim I appreciate that , thank you
A GTX3071 is a big turbo for the MQB an IS38 is a medium sized turbo. Also the Revo Intercooler is rated above IE in quite a few studies.
Revo tune is garbo, I was on stage 1.5 ED and beat revo stage 2
@@TheAndy7042 I said nothing about the tunes I said the intercooler..
@@Timbo1969 ik lol but I’m just stating the tune is pretty bad, product is good
Man the motivational bit at the end of the video got me good today. Cent even explain how much I needed it.

CEL shirt would suit me as a VAG guy 😅
And Evan, how many VW owners hurt you 😂
The subtle shots are Lowkey hurting😂😂
A CEL shirt would suit me as a Nissan/Infiniti guy 😆
Sheesh it actually sounds pretty good with the stock exhaust with the muffler on it
I’m running a CTS catted downpipe with a MBRP exhaust and it sounds killer. I have a video if you’re interested in listening
Just throw a set of Bronze 17" Enkei RPF1s on there with a meaty tire set up ;)
The intercooler on my 12 regal gs was like that. Between radiator and condenser. A fmic was a must and helped tremendously
Positive message today was so true and I often need to be reminded of that. Thanks for the positive force!
To be honest I quite like install videos. One of the main reasons I watch automotive TH-cam is to learn about different cars and different parts.
Records are set on a true FMIC setup, regardless if the IE one flows better.
Don’t do a muffler delete been there best thing that sounds good is a AWE exhaust.
Congratulations on the stage2+ intercooler XD
Also, get a magnaflow dual exit exaust without dampner, sounds perfect
And delete the resonator!
I have a VW CC of the same model year with a rear muffler delete and its the perfect volume for me living in a more residential area
This might be one of the first times I've actually listened actively to your daily advise and it kinda hit home. Thank you Evan, it really helped!
These End video quotes are part of my motivation to go big turbo on my escape
She's coming along, slowly but surely. Appreciate that kind advice at the end there.
The loud speaker bit had me hollering 😂
6:19 the crust on the oil pan is from the water pump leaking leaks on every golf/Audi made from plastic
They would really hate their life's if they had to change the new style water pumps 🤣 but I would love to see them do it hahaha. I do them All the time and still hate them
Exhaust/2step competition between all of your own cars would be 😎
Please keep showing the install process, more and more the vloggers I follow have turned away from showing the process.
You need a vibrant resonator instead of the stock one, it will give it more bass without being raspy, but the problem is the stock muffler, with it will be quite and without it will be annoying, maybe try a club sport muffler.
Downpipe it’s self makes it loud trust me, you don’t wanna put any exhaust upgrades
@@TheAndy7042 what I'm saying is you need a muffler with a downpipe or else it will sound like shit, I am aware that a downpipe would increase the sound dramatically.
I say make a poll on what style wheel people like generally and find a set that most people like, or are indifferent about.
Some enkei gtc02 in hypersilver would look wild on this thang

OZ Wheels simply look good on everything, from Subaru and VW to Porsches and Lambos

But I personally like the brand
BBS, Vossen, HRE. Leave the Rotos to the stance boys.
How is Rotiform 50% reps?
@@Kisame.Hoshigaki some of their designs are blatant replicas, some and alot of cast wheels are poor quality

the amount of happines this i get when evan uploades
EDITED bc i am not good at english

I have the X-Force Exhaust on my mk7 GTi. Best exhaust for the buck plus it has an electronic valve whether you want loud or a quiet drive 👌🏽👌🏽
Drew is Evan's encyclopaedia 😂😂
Once you work on a VW a few times u know what to expect so u go into a job knowing what weird things and challenging things lie ahead. I bet I could say that same thing if I went to JDM cars.
exactly if euro guys get a jdm or us car they gonna get confused and mad at things just like it is the other way around with getting a euro car

Not only do those screwdrivers with that type of handle can be made to use a wrench on the handle, You can also use a socket over it as well......
Hello Evan.
Hello Kevin.
Hello Jonathan.
Fun fact, FCPEuro will take used oil if you get oil from them as part of the “warranty” if you will
I usually don't stick around for the advice at the end but i did this time and i really needed to hear that
Awesome. Imo for the wheels, just throw some 18x9 Rpf1's and call it a day. Weight is everything
correction* the is38 does not have a turbine speed sensor as that was just released on the mk8, what he pointed to is the diverter valve to release pressure back into the intake when throttle is shut
I would’ve loved to see the install
The IS38 is not considered “big turbo.” It’s just slightly bigger than the IS20…
I posted the same thing until I saw this comment 😂

Love hearing Drew talk about this stuff
Wow, I was today years old when I found out about the screwdriver/wrench duo, that’s so dope lol, thanks Evan
Evan bro!!! That intercooler is sick.....👌
I would say just install an aftermarket muffler and remove the resonator! Thats what I have on my car and I always have people asking whats my setup. I have a catless dp but the difference in sound is very minimal.
Bro just want to say a massive thanks for the ending messages you gave, seriously needed them both right now

Watched this on my lunch break today and sheesh happy I did , what a great ending! So excited to get into my GTI build more
Don’t have a vw….. but eqt customer over here. Great people. That downpipe won’t pass Cali smog unless it has a carb sticker.
Coolant residue all over the oil pan. Waterpump/thermostat is leaking. Gotta remove the intake manifold
your advice keeps me going man, thank you.
12:49 that exhaust though 💜
okayyy?? i have never seen a VW Golf with a siren or big and loud speakers here in Sweden and im glad for that

So that isn’t a turbo speed sensor. That’s called a diverter valve. Basically recirculating bov. Vw has them on the turbo
And I bet that you will admit the car is pretty good at your first pull when it's done ☺️

Ignitiontube coming in clutch for our boy Mr Shanks
Getting a Golf R this week or next so very excited for the rest of the GTI content!
sad to see u didnt film the install. im concidering doing it myself but wnated to have some guidens from you xp
This is the most amount of running cars I’ve seen on a jdm car channel in months
Obviously I’m jp it’s just funny to think of because a lot of them have 10 cars and only 4 actually run 😂😂
EVAN IS LITERALLY THE JDM VERSION OF STADMAN😂😂LOL

My guy you put the biggest smile on my face all the time , just had a rough long day best advice I could get right now priceless 🤙🤟
thanks bro! and always apprecaite the advice at the end!! it really helps we all go through shit trust me we all do! it can always be worse !
3piece heritage wheels would be 🔥
And ie does offer pops and bangs on stage 2 and up.i got them
What’s up Evan you should make a second account for full installs a lot of us like myself still love them
someone needs to hop on that parts bundle! hecka good price for what youre getting
I wish other VW guys would understand is38’s and ko4’s ARE NOT BIG TURBOS
Water pump is leaking on the GTI. Tell tale sign is dried coolant on oil pan
Me watching you call out the VW weirdos for tuning with pops and bangs while sitting in my jetta that pops and bangs 👁👄👁
Love those turbo noisessss
Any recommendations for a new exhaust for a 2000 3.5 Mustang?👀
Drew is a gem!!
Evan u should buy a 2nd Gen Veloster next. I’ve got a 2019 Veloster Turbo R-Spec which is the track focused (non N) model Veloster.
New fan. Pretty cool thing you said at the end. Thank you!
