Has anyone had Bosch failures? I got a set from rockauto and im having 1 of them arcing to the plug intermittently. Gonna replace it but using dielectric grease has seemed to fix it for now.
You're welcome! I will say APR makes coil packs that are supposedly better than R8 coils ("10% more energy output") and cost roughly the same. I plan on testing them soon when I change plugs but wanted to let you know all the options that are out there.
I picked mine up from Modded Euros here: www.moddedeuros.com/products/oem-ignition-coil-06e905115e They have other options as well, such as a CTS brand R8 coil.
Oh man your videos are getting me pumped for my GTI
It's such a fun car! You definitely are not going to regret it!
@@TheParkingLotMechanic yeah man i keep having to remind myself its going to be a daily driver and i cant put every mod under the sun on it.
Yep, thanks, just got colder NGK spark plugs and R8 Coils for my 2011 GTI build-ish
Some good OEM+ right there. Your GTI will thank you!
We know that you don't get a lot bit thanks for keep us entertained
This R8 coil packs make a big difference to tuned engines 😊👍
Sweet! When we tune the GTI, we’re gonna test the stock ones vs R8 as well :)
@@TheParkingLotMechanic Best ones are the ARP coil packs.10% gain in power apparently 👍
I saw those and CTS claiming increased power. Gonna try them at some point!
@@TheParkingLotMechanic do you have vid now? Stock vs r8?

Does anyone know if I need to have a tune to get r8 coil packs on my mk5 gti , bevause I have a stock engine at the moment
Shouldn't have to but these help the engine run better when you do get a tune.
really enjoyed the video
Great Vid!
Thank you!
Is the car still running like silk?
It still is. Regular oil changes and these coils help this thing run like mint!

Yes! Plug and play upgrade!
