Our Golf R is slowly evolving from a daily driver into a track weapon and the next step in the transition was suspension and braking! We got our hands on some EPIC Bilstein B16 Damptronic Electronically adjustable coilovers along with some Circo by Winmax front brake pads.
How did we test the improvement? Well we handed the keys to James Stewart from Driving Solutions to see what track times would be like before and after!!
Previous lap time (Stock shocks, H&R Springs, street pads) - 1:55
New lap time (Bilstein coilovers, race compound pads) - 1:52

I feel like you and the Mighty Car Mod guys would get along great. Great presentation on your end - best Golf R B16 Damptronic video on youtube I could find. Also, just had my b16 damptronic kit delivered today for my 19R!

@@SparesboxAuto quick question - I just got the b16 damptronic kit installed today, but I don’t feel any difference at all between the different drive modes. Did you guys notice much difference between the different modes?

Have the Bilstein B16 damptronic coilovers installed in my 2017 Golf R. Did you guys use factory shock mounts and bumpstops with these coilovers. I ended up cutting two nubs of my bumpstops due to knocking when going over bumps at slow speeds in the front coilovers. I'm currently using aftermarket ECS Tuning HD shock mounts and are thinking of installing factory shock mounts. Some people say the coilovers already have bumpstops and not to use factory ones? Thanks for your help....

Does your Golf R with stock DCC build in? I heard of people saying GTI/R suspension mods should go for Bilstein B14 rather than B16 if your car without DCC?

Video could turn down the music a tad more while talking. Still thumbs up though. I like hearing about this stuff.

Does the billstein coilovers work with dcc? I am very interested to buy billstein's for my golf 7R, building a trackcar for the Nurburgring and Spa, love from belgium!

Only the B16 does. Also the KW DDC coilovers work with DDC and have a more comfortable ride in comfort, and stiff in race. You should pair it with the super pro lower control arms for more camber and the super pro rear stiffer anti roll bar for better turn in.

The Bilstein Damptronic coilovers are indeed compatible!

@@kokekan75 Which KW model are you referring to in this context? was looking at B6 DCC shocks with some adjustable springs, but still looking at options. In current, I never use comfort mode as normal is not uncomfortable. Comfort bounces more which is not comfortable.
