Great vid, awesome fitment.
Just removed mine super great video man
Took me about 35 minutes total
What a wonderful video
Great job mate! Great job! BIG BIG like from Europe, Hungary. I will do exactly the same on my 2018 R-Line Tiguan 162KW just like in your tutorial! Thank You Again! Awesome!
Hi from Down Under! Glad you liked the video. Hope yours turns out great!
Great video and very helpful, just got my mk7 golf R back box and going to do the same thing to my tiguan mk2 230hp,have been look for this mod and you have the answer to it,your a top man for making this video in good detail.
Cheers mate glad the vid helped you out. It's an awesome mod. Good luck with it.
I love the sound from USA I hope I can have it done on my 2022 Tiguan R-line 👍
Great video. Wish there was one somewhere on TH-cam that was fitting the MK7R exhaust to the MK1 Tiguan!
damn sounds amazing !!
Sounds good
very useful
Wauw fantastic sound great idea !!
i have the same car and from the beginning i didnt like the fake tips !!
sounds good.
I was thinking to get an a akrapovic one, but this seems a better solution
Very nicely set out what it entails to do this, Thank You Grouse Garage.
Is there a drone noise when coasting, I understand thats why the flaps are there for?
Thanks mate. Appreciate the comment. None of my videos are monetarised. I simply do it to help others.
非常详细👍👍👍，虽然我已经拆过而且拆坏了hhhhh🤣🤣🤣
i have just watched this video. thank you for sharing. i love the way they you make and create something. on the Tiguan there is a weakness with the DAB signal in the UK, can you do a video of you making something new that will fix this issue?
That sounds amazing!! Absolutely beautiful OEM+ 🤩🫡
It's nice they give u guys the dsg transmission at least in the states we don't even get that or even the more aggressive offerings of the tiguan
Usually it's the opposite, and we get dumbed down versions of models. This is especially true for American muscle cars, sadly.
Crackin job that lad but I actually prefer the look of the fake one’s to be honest love the dsg farts though👌🏻I’m thinking of doing something similar with my t-roc 2.0 litre think I might just whip the res off instead haha
Nice. Take my money
Bless your souls
I have a My23 Tiguan and I’m hoping you could do the job for me, your work is brilliant and happy to wait 24:33
Good evening mate
Are you open to fitting a GOLF R exhaust on my Wolfsburg Tiguan?
I would supply the exhaust and pay for your service.
I’m very impressed with your work 👏
i think rline is the same engine for gti!what you think?my dear friend!
Hello from USA! Considering a Tiguan to buy. EXCELLENT video. I appreciate the time and effort it took to make this video and I hope Tiguan owners do too! Great skills in welding and video production and creation here!
*** Would you say the Tiguan's are decently reliable if an owner stays on the maintenance schedule with oil changes at 3500 miles? Looking for an owner perspective.
The Tig is a great car. With regular documented service history, you will have little trouble. I love the build quality, especially the interior comfort and materials.
@@GrouseGarage yes,its a designed car,when i saw the ad for tiguan,i dicided to buy it!
Great guide. How long did it ruffly take you to do?
I did the whole job over 1 weekend. I had all the materials ready to go.
Hey Grouse Garage, in the before and after sound check. Was there any modifications on it before? I didn’t know there was DSG fart on a stock Tiguan.
Completely stock. No mods. We were all surprised about that DSG fart! 😄😄
Hello thanks for the vid! Quick question. Is this only for the tiguan All Space? Since the regular tiguans only have the exhaust on 1 side. Or will the allspace diffuser fit on a regular one ?
What year model?
Nice! What wire/gas did you use in your MIG to weld this up? Anything special?
Stainless wire, CO2/Argon mix gas and Solar Flux on the joins.
is this tiguan modified other than the exhaust? i love the sound between shifts. been wanting that for my tiguan..
Completely stock other than the exhaust
Great video! Not sure if it has been asked but can you advice how much something like this cost?
Hi mate. If in Australia, you would be looking at $250 on average for a good second hand Golf R complete exhaust. I paid $170 for mine with valves. Miscellaneous stainless pipe cost me up to $100. I did all the install obviously. No further costs. To have an exhaust shop do the install is going to cost around $400-$500 I believe, from what I have been told.
@@GrouseGarage you know in china ,this may cost double!
Awesome vid, thanks! I will have a go very soon. Qyestion: where did you get the 'TIGUAN' letters for the centred lettering? They look bigger than our standard on left side?
Thanks a million!
Ali Express for $20. They match current 21-22 facelift Tiguan. It's a much cleaner look I think!
@@GrouseGarage ah thought so, thats great! Yep I agree super clean and symetrical! Also, getting my mk7.5 r exhaust fitted friday based on your vid!
@@pete8oes Let me know your thoughts after you have it done. In sport mode sounds great under hard acceleration 👍
Will do mate, Looking forward to it 👍
Reporting back.... I have installed my mk7.5 R exhaust! Wow what an improvement! It really sets off the look of our tiggy, worth the upgrade on looks alone... let alone the new exhaust note! Whoa!
I left the valves in too, so I can switch between 'wife mode' and 'husband/beast mode' by hand... both have a great note, just different types of grumble at idle and when giving it some... DSG farts in beast mode are nice 😎
Thanks a million for your video! You covered lots of points that went unanswered on the forums. As you said ' so stoked with the result, so so happy', I 100% agree! Shout yourself a beer mate 👍
Next up - replace the TIGUAN to be centre aligned. Then you can spot me on NSW roads 🍻👍🤜🤛
Hey mate, is the resonator of the tiggy the same as a R? I took the res out of my R but want to keep the tiggy a bit quiet like you.
The Tig and Golf R res are completely different. Not interchangeable.
@@GrouseGarage thanks mate, so keep the toggy res on gotcha. Does the right tip look a bit uneven? Or is it the angle
Did you disconnect the vehicle battery before welding?
I didn't actually, but as a precaution to everyone else I'd suggest you should.
Hey mate, are the actuators required? Seen some mk7.5 exhausts for sale without it so wanted to know before getting it
They aren't required for a Tiguan.
@GrouseGarage thank you for the quick reply sir! 🙏
Hey mate, love the video. Did you keep the valves open or shut? And "boomy" sounds at low rpm?
I left the valve actuators in and their default position is open. I don't have any "boomy" sound or drone at all. It's all quite subtle when cruising but throaty when you give it some. DSG shifts sound great! 👍
@@GrouseGarage Is this a North American Tig? Without the DSG.
@@GrouseGarage i just know how to make sound in DSG shifts,but i dont konw how to make sound in P,i wanne to hear the "boom"sound in P!do you know how to do it ?
Welches Baujahr ist dein Tiguan?
Bin das gleiche bei dem 2020 Modell am überlegen
Es ist ein 2018 Modell
@@GrouseGarage wie steuerst du die Klappen an?
How many horse power is the Tiguan? Is it the 2.0 tsi 184hp!!
162 kilowatt = 217 horsepower.
That’s what I thought, in North America the only available model is the 2.0 tsi 184 hp, also I am sure u have a different transmission then what is offer here in North America, anyway sound very good. Wish near future the will offer it here, I will definitely trade my Tiguan for the new model anyway nice video 👍
@@Enzo-zh3xk Surprisingly the market for Tiguan 2.0TSI in Europe and Australia has much more variety. They have a number of Petrol and Diesel options whereas here in NA we have the standard 184hp 2.0TSI. You can get a Tiguan in AUS/EUR with the same 2.0TSI tuned engine as the Golf R if you want. 322hp in a Tiguan?! Yes please, but I doubt we'll be lucky to get that in Canada or US.
@@GrouseGarage I GOT APR 1 stage to improve horsepower to 220(maybe)😆😆
Would it work on a volkswagen golf 1.4 tsi?
Yeah most likely, but your rear bar might need modification to suit the quad tips. Or fit a Golf R bar.
Does your tiguan dsg?
Yes it's a DSG
nice nice
br huehue
Diesel o gasolina?
Petrol. You won't get a diesel sounding like that.
I would like to hear a diesel tdi with an exhaust though. Sure not the same but ….
Is that a stock 162 ?
Yes it's stock
@@GrouseGarage seems pretty quick.
This might be the stupidest question you get. But I’ll ask anyways what generation golf R exhaust? Does it matter which generation?
Also I have a 2018 Tiguan would this still be possible?
Mk7 or 7.5 Golf R exhaust. Will definitely fit a 2018 Tig. That's what mine is. Your rear bar may be different though depending on model.
@@GrouseGaragehey sorry to bother again but I have been thinking and have another question. Do you think any after market golf R exhausts could fit on the Tiguan (with the same amount or more welding than you did)? I’m honestly not satisfied with any of the Tiguan exhausts on the market and airflow wise a golf R exhaust doesn’t look like much of an upgrade in the airflow department. Sorry for rambling I’m just thinking hard about this.
The clips are a disaster I stuck my head in there and couldn’t even find the clips
Don’t want to be an asshole. But that wide right pipe looks a little bit off. Goes down a little bit
Oh that? It's intentional. Ads character ;)
