I absolutely love the GT2260. I have one on my S3 and run it on Cobb Flex. Spool and transient response is fantastic. It’s a great turbo if you want to maintain a stock like feel with another 40HP over the IS38.
I’ve got a manual and the Pmax feels like a rocket above 3700 rpm. Totally different animal than the stock car. I’m going with MPI once I’m due for a valve cleaning.
@@tune_zilla daily driving with autocross and have my first track day coming up next month. No Mexico drags.......except the occasional impromptu roll.
how much did all this cost? I also have a 2022 mk8 also in Palmello Yellow i would love to have the hp that you have…..even stock it goes decent….my buddy has a 2021 civic type r and we we r dead even every time…..having 400hp like yours must be a blast to drive. ✌️
I will be on Unitronics UNIFLEX MPI file next month with the PMAX i do a lot of spirited canyon drives and the occasional 40 or 60 roll , i agree that the stock turbo was very quick to come on and i really enjoy the PMAX POWER IS MORE linear and usable in those canyon runs!
@@tune_zilla i failed to mention i already have the PMAX installed had since October! Definitely agree , you think we will hit 470whp on full E85? I have a catless Milltek dp
What are your thoughts on reliability post turbo swap? I am stage 2 Uni right now with the tcu locked Mk8, but as soon as the tcu gets cracked I would like to go Powermax. I'm just worried that going stage 3 might cut the lifespan of the car in half.
Probably not as laggy as my 2zz celica even though its non turbo lift doesnt kick in till 6k RPM then you get a sudden boost of pretty much 40+ HP, in a 190 car that is alot
Is it possible to get ecu/tcu dq250 maps for garret powermax stage 1 on a seat leon cupra 5f, basically a golf 7r? It has stock mpi, miltek 200cell downpipe, intercooler, drop in air filter, one step colder plugs
It might be possible. If you open a ticket on our website (tunezilla.com) we can have our calibrator take a look. Be sure to supply your VIN, and if possible, ECU/TCU ID.
![MK8 GTI Amazing Track Car? - [How to Drive Front Wheel Drive Fast]](/img/n.gif)
I dynoed at 403whp and 400wtq. MK8 GTI 6MT 93 pump gas Powermax EQT tuned.
Can’t wait for MPI/E85

400+ and still a restrictive setup? That's insane!
These videos are are the same quality of these huge channels amazing guys keep it up
Great job! You can definitely feel the lag on this turbo that’s for sure
I’ve got a manual and the Pmax feels like a rocket above 3700 rpm. Totally different animal than the stock car. I’m going with MPI once I’m due for a valve cleaning.
Yeah. It’s a different beast for sure. What do you use your GTI for mostly? Daily driving or “Mexico drags”??

Are people swapping the Golf R OEM Conti turbo's on MK8 GTI's? I wonder how that would compare?

I think you’ll like it. Sounds weird to say, but the lag actually helps with traction on this little ripper.

@@forestmetten870 Not sure. We haven't finished with our tuning on E85 yet. Not sure what Unitronic is doing.
@@tune_zilla low pressure fuel pump and mpi with 980 cc injectors! , ill stay tuned to see what ya guys make.
All these decent prod value low sub low view channels.. must be tought out there
Appreciate the positive vibes! 🙏
@@tune_zilla just found you randomly on a custom gearbox adaptor plate adventure !
they r doing what they love ….what more can you ask for? channel with grow ….new here and sub for life
I think the lag will help, 1 2 and 3 are almost useless with the stock turbo once tuned.
Quick question will there ever be a TCU tune for the Tiguans with the 8 speed Asin transmission, thanks
We do have plans to continue development on the Tiguan, but at this time we don't have a confirmed timeline.

Can u map these turbos withiut any other hardware

Great Work! Are you guys revising the tune for the V6 TDI 3.0 CATA engine code? similar what you guys did with 3.0 TDI CNRB
Those have been revised and live for a while but we are working on Stage 3 OTS files for select turbo upgrades for the CATA!
Hi Tunezilla Great Video ⭐️
Do you mind doing some dragy runs and POV with the car?
Thanks! We'll be taking this car to the track lots this season and plan to capture our results in future videos.
@@tune_zilla hello, could you explain to me what it is about the mk8 that allows for more hp than a mk7 on a Powermax 1? thanks
what psi to get 400 hp ?
