Prefer this shape to the newer. Just wondering, with this setup you are over twice the stock power on stock internals. How would you rate the longevity of such a setup? Cracking little pocket rocket!
@@rsc8841 it’s more the drive train, clutch etc that I’d be concerned about. The engine is used in the S3, Golf R etc so it’s obviously gonna hold the power okay.

@@danielhozan6927 higher insurance has nothing to do with getting modded parts back. insurance will be higher because a faster car equals a higher risk of getting in a car crash therefore you have to pay more for your insurance
I own a polo 6r 1.4, not a GTI, and I feel like Polo's are more for affordable VW looks, Music quality, comfort and stance than performance, but i definitely wouldn't mind owning this Polo. Nice one mate.
I love Snake Pass IT IS NOT FOR BEGINNERS! The road has many bits that catch people unfamiliar out all the time. Even temperature and animals come into play (with the odd rambler lol). Stay safe people.
Would you like to review my golf r7.5 that has lots of custom bits on it? I’m in Canterbury and dying of cancer in the month and I’d love you to have a drive
If I were the owner I would be getting the car down to unicorn or EcoTune and scrap RTMG off tbh Also I know the 1.8 TSI very well, 420bhp is your limit stock block, don’t listen to christof at RTMG otherwise you’ll end up with a box full of bits from the side of the road and forking out for a new engine and forge kit
anything more than st1 and these need an LSD. Cant get the power down in the twisties. Mines st 2 and on the straights it just spins, if its wet itll spin in 3rd.
Moin. super gutes Video, mich würde Interessieren was unser Tüv dazu sagen würden!!!??was mich besonders Interessiert, wie sieht es mit der Haltbarkeit aus!!!???oder wo bekommt man diese Recaro Sitze her , finde sie Hammer.
Everyone hating cause you can achieve 400 with a bigger turbo and intake .... the catch can and coils are some what cosmetic , does help but not necessary to get that
It's the same engine as the mk7 gti/R and it's faster than those golfs because it's lighter and more agile. Also there is not much difference between this car stock and an mk7 GTI.
@jacquesvanstaden Straight away that tells me, you never sat in a 25th Anniversary [with all the extras it came with]...an R32...or even the V6 4Motion....They never failed...were more bullet-proof than the more breakable MK5's. They simply had their time....
Ahhh good old Roger, we have missed you. The overweight middle aged glasses wearing armchair critic, have you dropped your herald newspaper again and jumped back on youtube? its been a while since youv been on the car channel moaning about other peoples possessions. Usually its speeding, comes on a car channel, moans about cars (click his channel theres a good few comments) please guys don't be like Roger, he is lonely and deflects his loneliness to try drag others down with him, to make himself feel slightly better about himself, we missed you Roger ❤️
In Germany VW used to sell 2litre of these called Polo R WRC with 220ps which been limited to 2500 pieces.
Not the same engine. Ea113 to ea888.3.
@@thibaultjacqueloot87 i didn't know they produced ea113 till 2014
We love our #Gtis here in South Africa 🇿🇦

I can't imagine longevity is high when your pushing all the stock internals to their max more wear and tear
Running similar power on my 6P Cupra same engine, 2 years no issues, EA888 Gen3 engines are strong when looked after.
@@rsc8841 it’s more the drive train, clutch etc that I’d be concerned about. The engine is used in the S3, Golf R etc so it’s obviously gonna hold the power okay.
Sorry never realised the clutch was upgraded. Just the rest of the internals that will be fucked

induction kit is half the engine bay😂
The insurance cost must be eye-watering after all these mods. But great to see the passion for tuning these VAG cars.
Bet he’s got it on standard no mods 🤣
Insurance doesn’t account for mods if he crashes he don’t get upgrade parts back

@Daniel Hozan depends who your insured with, my last policy covered all parts at retail price.
This makes me wish I had a GTI, such a nice car
That is one minty Polo!!!!!!
Always loved how compact this generation was.Truly a pocket rocket,but what's the weight of this thing now?
I was tempted by a polo gti lovely little cars !!
Stage 3 plus 😂 always makes me laugh
Too bad we don’t get the Polo in the U.S. I’d get one in a heartbeat.
Same here. Would also love a Scirocco. Got an MK6 GTI and absolutely love it
That 4th gear pull was insane!
What a genuine guy and what a nice car good to hear a car with no pops and bags

I would recommend doing e40 tune rather than bigger turbo and spend the money on the the LSD diff it can't be that expensive to get a drum of it
How do these high HP FWD cars do in the wet? I struggle with a stock GTI at times, how do people do it with an extra 100hp? haha
A LSD helps quite alot 👍 cuts down torque steer quite abit
Very carefully 😂 my esc light goes crazy in the wet.
Send it!!
absolutely awful if u don't have ps4 tyres
Spend some money on suspension modifications, LSD, and tires like the other two guys suggested really help a ton!
Is this the rhayder road/ellan valley? Awesome little road
I love Snake Pass
IT IS NOT FOR BEGINNERS! The road has many bits that catch people unfamiliar out all the time. Even temperature and animals come into play (with the odd rambler lol). Stay safe people.
That is sick man!
That's a lovely looking Polo. I love it! Props to the owner and to you for showing it to us. I was having a rough day LoL
Αυτό το Polo mk5/6r-c,είναι το ποιοτικότερο polo και έχει το ποιο όμορφο design από όλα!( Walter Maria de Silva!)
I actually think the polo is the golf of old especially with the is38 no problem
Would you like to review my golf r7.5 that has lots of custom bits on it? I’m in Canterbury and dying of cancer in the month and I’d love you to have a drive
God bless you mate, are you the guy that was on og's channel a few months ago?
Rip bro

Quality road only 15 mins from my house, nice motor 😎
hey bud kie, can you pls tell about the extension side skirts ? a link to the product page would be helpful. thanks mate. Hot Car...!!!
Lovely car and sound owner but 1 hand on the wheel gives me anxiety REEEEEEEE.
Gotta get that fast gear shift 👍😁
is the IS38 also upgraded?
Beautiful
I've got a 6c GTi!
What bucket seats are in this car?
TIA
Hi, I've been looking to upgrade the brake calipers on my Polo 6c ... would you kindly be able to provide the model number of the ones you are using.
I'm totaly don't like the polo but this polo I like
Snake pass 👌
I wonder if we have IS38 turbo in South Africa
How many millimetres has it been lowered to ?
What gearbox you got?😊
I wish this engine inside my polo sedan
Snakes pass, good road

What difference(s) did the owner notice running meth over just running IS38?
is this snake pass?
The man fr stole my name 🙄😂
Man that is beautiful.
Exactly how i want it with the styling. Sideskirts, dark taillights, black/red emblems 😍
I knew I’d seen this polo about where I live!! Snake pass mint burning road 👌🏻
Are the corsa vxr seats a straight fit or do they require modifications?
They straight fit just custom rails required
Are they corsa vxr seats
Is this just the 1.8 on 400bhp? 😱 how much psi he running !
It must be. I’ve never seen these in 2.0 only the new polos
Maybe consider my fiesta st mk 7 to a polo GTI
Everyone hating cause you can achieve 400 with a bigger turbo and intake .... the catch can and coils are some what cosmetic , does help but not necessary to get that
What's the 100-200?
Obviously he’s having issue with traction
I wonder why the owner doesn’t go with wider wheels & tyres?
Would take a Golf R over this though (bet he’s spent about the same amount on it)
this would gap a stage 2 golf R by about 15 car lengths
@@jasonelliott8101 has it got the handling of a golf r though? (No hate to the guy though beautiful car I’d just rather have its older brother)
@@SamLaidler I had a stage 2 golf R.. handled great.. I can imagine polo with good handling mods would be great to
@@jasonelliott8101 100% that polo with a nice set up would be serious on them back lanes
Think this car will put a bigger smile on your face
With the iboost the gears are maped in different boost like per gear??
Nice job!!
Sik build mate. Are they corsa vxr seats!! One of best seats in my opinion for hot hatch’s!!
Cupra 290 black edition seats are one the best seats I’ve ever had in a car
Big up the manuals 👍
The 1.8 and 2.0 are physically the same size mate, it's not like the 2.0 is a bigger engine.
Right...just the bore and stroke are slightly different which is why there is that slight variation in cc
@@WaseemKhan-iu4bh The bore is the same. The stroke is different
i'am really not into gti's because here in the netherlands they are litteraly in every street. but this one is damn clean!
Man like Kie!
Rapidd!
Is it easy to get insurance for these mods?
Great car. One lady owner. Only used for shopping commutes. Never raced - ££££ ono
Love that's manual
📈💥💥💥👌
From 6R or which is with 1.8 192Ps, the series is not bad. But with 400ps this is a Porsche killer
How are you doing Luke I have missed a lot of videos because my phone broke but I'm back my brother
Moves like a golf
It's the same engine as the mk7 gti/R and it's faster than those golfs because it's lighter and more agile.
Also there is not much difference between this car stock and an mk7 GTI.
Goodbye gearbox
Not good for motor
Belting car in today's market....
Get a girlfriend
Shame it's a polo
Not really, It's the modern equivalent of a MK4 GTI....
Alright Roger 👍
