Happy Thanksgiving you guys!

I just hit 60k kms on my stage 2 uni r and I love it so much! The Remus exhaust makes it so great

My mk7 gti is my first turbo car I ever owned bought used at 20k miles now a 35k loving every mile. Went stage 1 to 2 then to big turbo stage 3 within 6 months it’s a wild ride.

Having the mk8 R in manual I can say after driving the 7.5 it’s better. Both great. But the truck rear diff is worth it. Have a milltek road + ordered so pumped for it 👍🏼 Also I got at msrp with a great trade in. The 7.5 I drove went for the same price with 12k miles on it. Good dealers are out there. Pete I’m in MA and do a lot of business in NH. When this is staged it’s going to be so fun would love to get in contact

I know what you mean about that annoying stop/start 😱I have a 7.5R with an Autowatch Ghost immobiliser fitted, one of the benefits is that you can permanently disable the stop/start 👍. . I’m in the UK, not sure if it’s available in the US but might be worth looking into 😎

My 7.5 always put a smile on my face !

APR tune removes the 7.5 auto start stop function. Amazing bonus. Eco mode auto adds it back. Just an FYI

Love the vids! On the cat back talk I think the xforce sounds best with the xforce downpipe. I only prefer since it’s a few hundred cheaper than Remus and Milltek

you know what you are talking about. fellow mk7r owner here. keep it up!

For plugs. Non projected or bust. Only need 1 step colder unless hybrid or larger. NGK R7438-8 (4905) Denso IKH01-24 (5749) FCP would be best since you can run their warranty for these costly plugs on shorter intervals. But they only carry the 5749's and almost never in stock. Otherwise, Rockauto or directly from NGK or Denso. I wouldn't dare buy plugs from Amazon or anywhere else. APR's plugs may be a good option too. But they're so new. Jury is out on that to really make a call at this point. I run Denso 5749's in my IS38 GTI. Run on an 8k interval for both plugs & oil. Since I drive my car hard often. And because I've been one who's dealt with a broken plug and replacing a motor once in my MK7 already. I'm not chancing it.

Love my 2018 R. I was thinking of selling it when used car prices peaked but I would have regretted it. 53 k miles. 2018 introduced 72 mo 60k mile warranty. Not sure if 2019 had it as well.

I run a scorpion non resonated with stock down pipe and it sounds really good! I have a mk7 gti stage 1 EQT tuned

corsa exhaust is my favorite, i run it with a cts downpipe and it sounds great

Another great vid, especially with the spark plugs. I've been looking into more "after market" water pumps my proactive approach to that problem if you will.🤷‍♂️ oh yeah, crackle and bangs all the way

XForce exhaust is really good too

Brisk er12s plugs is what I run. I change them out every oil change because how cheap they are but they work great. You could run them to 10k but you have to regap around 5k. I have pops on normal drive and only use it to piss people off lol

I've been enjoying your growth and content over your journey. Curious why you didn't include the Armytrix exhaust in with your suggestions? I have the carbon fiber on my Golf R stage 3 and its nice. I also just hit 42K miles, continued health and happiness

I love my awe touring on my mk8. However I echo the sentiment. I wish it was louder, hopefully a dp gives me that little more rasp

My 19 R still have 28k miles and still under warranty but IE tune is so tempting. You are right, mk7.5 R is such a livable daily but when needed turn to a beast.

Your pops & bangs do they only go off in sport mode or all the time ? When I get mine I would like to turn it off or turn it down lol

Hey I just have one question about your R, how is the mileage on it now that you upgraded to stage 2?

Hey bro! What should i exactly do with my car so it would sound like yours at 2:05?

Do you recommend getting the stage two tcu and ecu tune From IE?

I wouldn't be so sure about the MK8 being better!!

You need to get some paddle extensions 🤘

Stock turbo?

Golf bois

dude u talk too much
