LOVE TUNED RACES! Bring them ALL!!!

A lot of cars wake up from single tunes and you can really see their potential. So I feel it's really important to bring tuned cars. And you can also use TUNED cars against higher HP cars that are stock and compare them. Then people can see with simple tunes what their cars can do

I really enjoy tuned cars as well Sam, It shows value in cars for their money. For instance My GLI stock is not really fast at all. But with a single Stage 1 APR tune that they offer warranty on, I can beat a TYPE R and the car cost me 21k and 500 for the tune so 21500 for the total car. So I feel it's good to bring them on sometimes. Because some cars really just need one simple tune to shine. Such as the VW, Honda, TYPE S. But whatever you are comfortable with works.

Tuned races are great

Tuned and stock both are great. Would love to see this GLI vs a tuned DCT veolester. Can u drive the GLI also sometimes? I noticed u only was in the Honda

There's a video around from last week ish but one of them was manual and one was automatic kinda threw it off

Me tooooo

I would too. But I can tell you after I installed the Ktuner and went for a stage 2 map. It's a huge difference in my opinion I mean I can squeal em in third gear with my 6-speed. I can't do that when it's not tuned though. I flashed it back to stock to bring it in for a service and I noticed immediately the difference. I guess the butt Dyno versus regular track racing must tell your mind something different according to this video.

I agree I'm on the stage 3 tune and it's night and day

@@xxtreme33 it's mind-boggling how the weight can make that much difference.

what? both cars are tuned dude, not a true rep of either car... accord still king!!!

Also sti smashed it too whilst in sport mode only not sport sharp

@footballcoreano ...yeah, better for repair shops 🤣🤣🤣

@footballcoreano hahahaha. VW thanks you for keeping their repair shops open

@KZfaq Sucks You guys literally look like the sore loser club who just witnessed their car get crushed and are making excuses. Yeah there was a lot of hype around the Honda. But don't forget the GLI/GTI has set way better tuned records than the 10 speed ever will. Btw I own a 2019 Stage 2 150K miles with 0 issues. You guys sound hella sad

Personally I would take a loaded 14 328i over the accord

@@NS416 14 is way too old

You are right on with your comment. Own a 2021 Accord 2.0T sport and I LOVE everything about it EXCEPT the sound system. Honestly, the 2007 civic I traded in had a much better stock sound system.

@@NS416 With cash, I'd take a Lamborghini... 😂

I just bought myself a 2022 accord 2.0t and can confirm. It’s phenomenal except for the sound system

Weight too

@footballcoreano Drag and roll races show different, The Accord is superior. VW fanboys in denial.

@@limitedreach4446 bro you literally just saw a VW gap the Accord and you're still talking crap. Who's delusional?

@@MeltingRubberZ28 It’s tuned, stock, the Accord will have it. More Horsepower and less weight will always win, you VW fanboys are missing brain cells and it shows.

Gli is a sleeper but driver can't launch

All three cars were auto actually.

@@Japalian24 Exactly my point. The accord as fast as it is, does not have a very durable transmission. Honda is pretty famous for making weak in house transmissions and being too stubborn to change. The civic has a CVT, which i personally would never drive in any vehicle ever. Can be the fastest car in the world and it makes for a lousy driving experience. The VW DSG is a great automatic trans. VW has plenty of their own issues.... but transmissions are good.

@@boost331 the new honda 10 speeds have had no such issues

But yes would still pick the gli everytime if for sporty driving

@@Japalian24 I'm pretty sure boost31 is referring to the DSG transmission...NOT YOUR REGULAR ORDINARY AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION. in fact that DSG transmission will go through the gears FASTER than any human being could ever shift.

I agree. There are tools and apps that are available to easily measure those times. They should implementing times into their vids.

Goog it Fatty

I agree, these drag races are creating quite the drama online, and numbers would give the runs credibility.

@@GoofieNewfie You see what happens on the video, why do you need the numbers? its like saying i know what is the box office of the movie, no need to watch it.

The numbers would only make the Honda fan boys more upset. Do you realize the kind of SPEED the GLI is trapping for it to come back after being 3 cars behind due to traction and win the race? And then for it to gap it by 5 cars on the rolling.

Sure.

VW ius a piece of crap most likely the ECU is rigged to give lesser performance results for legality issues.

@@adrianleon1731 "Wanna race mine then?" Sure, how about two years from now, when your VW can not hold its gears properly?

@@squidproquo2241 No, that is false. Launch control can only be used with sport mode on and traction off. Has nothing to do with the cars state of tune.

@@turdzilla1675 "No, that is false. Launch control can only be used with sport mode on and traction off. Has nothing to do with the cars state of tune." HUH! You addressed this post to the wrong person, bud

Yea I wanna know the MODs on that Jetta. That thing MOVES OUT and even better in manual mode and from a roll.

@@DG-uh6rk DSG is always better manual MODE on a roll. That is the fastest form. The GLI will always outune the accord. The fastest turbo swapped accord using TYPE R turbo is running 11.7 while the fastest GLI is running 10.6 seconds with GOLF R turbo swapped. Both relatively small turbos. GLI is just the faster car

doesnt matter. Mod for Mod the GLI will always be faster than the accord.

@@glistud8178 Okay “GLI STUD” 🤣.

It’s a fact. Lol. Fastest accord 11.7 fastest GLI 10.4. At those speeds it’s 7 car diff

They're great, man. I have a tuned 1.5. Even with the base maps (ones included with KTuner), it becomes a lot quicker. I haven't used Hondata, but I've also heard great things about their tuner. However, you can buy additional tunes. For example, TSP Stage 1. (I don't believe that non-SIs have a Stage 2 tune from TSP.) Supposedly, KTuner's base maps allow for better quick acceleration, but TSP's tune has better acceleration at the top end. I use "supposedly" because I haven't used TSP yet - only KTuner basemaps.

Only the 2.0t accords I have the cvt’s

@@slick8972 2.0T accords have the 10 speed automatic.

Only 1.5T have a CVT, the 2.0T have a 10 speed traditional transmission.

That thing scoots!!!!

Yeah imagine it wth a golf R turbo it be a completely different animal

Also when it comes to reliably… it’s a breakdown soon engine

@@hondatrix naaaaah the gen 3 tsi engine is pretty stout. Even with extra power thrown at it. Main issue is our water pump/thermostat housing

They probably rigged the ECU for tax and gas consumption purposes.

@@walahmelons5504 well that’s what more horsepower does. If the accord had 360 as well it would shit on the GLI

@@bmwworld2022 No it wouldn't lol. The GLI also weighs less and has a faster transmission. I'm not trying to sound like a GLI fanboy because honestly I don't like VW, but if the GLI beat the accord when the accord got a much better launch than the GLI it's just obvious that if they both got a good launch the GLI would win by a large gap, I mean y'all saw how quickly it caught up from being so far behind after a bad launch

@@walahmelons5504 vw has more horses n torque and lighter, the torque is what pulled ahead of the accord 🙄

That car is 45lbs short of 4K. Not sure that’s such a good race against a car that weighs 3300 lbs

What are you talking about logan? There was a 4 car difference when they both used paddle shifters on the rolling race. The accord can't compete with the GLI.

@@martintintin7729 No matter how hard I try, I just can't find who asked? Besides, it's really a pointless comparison. The Type-R K20C1 got the bigger stock turbo.

@@martintintin7729 The only 2.0T GLI’s that run below 12’s are MK6’s, which are almost 200 lbs lighter than the MK7. Keep in mind the 2.0T engine and 10G Accord are only 3-4 years old. VW’s 2.0T has been around for well over 10 years. The MK6 is what? 13 years old? Pretty sad if you ask me...

That’s not true at all? Where the hell are you getting your information from? The MK6 GLI ran 10s and the MK7 engine broke records for STOCK BLOCK for 10 seconds this year it’s self. Further more the MK7 GLI can do WAYYY better timing than any MK6 GLI. The fastest STOCK turbo GLI runs 11.9 with videos on KZfaq. The fastest TURBO SWAPPED accord with 5 k spent on it runs 11.7. Further more, the USA GLIS get the 35th anniversary edition which is 200 pounds lighter than the one used in this video and only 100 pounds heavier than a regular GTI. Know ur facts before talking. The GLIGTI within 4 years of coming out broke records of 10 seconds while the accord 2.0 can barely beat 11.7 with 5 k spent on it

Don’t come here talking crap without knowing anything about the actual GLI. The one used in Canada are all same weight. The ones used in USA are lighter. Google GLI S or 35th US edition u fool. Jesus Christ Honda pekple try to make up anything

the gli took it

@Tony Stank, that would be a good race because so many are interested in it. The TLX Type-S however is at least 1/2 sec. faster to 60 in 4.7. It will also launch better with its SHAWD. Outside of that, the Tyoe S also beats the Accird in every imaginable category. Yet the Accord is still a supreme family car in its segment.

Good luck, those manual GLI's have really weak clutches so even a stg 1 tune will slip the clutch. The DSG can hold the power much better.

Anytime you modify a vehicle by increasing boost puts more pressure on the drivetrain and other components on the vehicle and it will require more maintenance to keep it reliable. I do believe APR does sell a tune and they offer their own warranty but soon as you tune your car you void your factory warranty so that's something to keep in mind if your car is brand new.

@@dudndadn12212 well, that's not very motivating, lol.

@@eppyz copy that - thank you for the heads up! I might just wait until the car runs out of factory warranty and then trick it out a little bit.

@@JuanCarlosYes Yeah, VW is VERY strict with mods on cars. The best bang for the buck is a tune. On a manual car you will need to upgrade your clutch, and you have to be careful with the 2.0 in your car with a manual. Some modified cars suffered from crank walk which basically means your engine is toast. The DSG car's don't seem to suffer from this issue. So if I were you? Keep it stock. Just so you know I drive a MK7.5 GTI with DSG and know a thing or 2 about them. I am keeping my GTI stock. Been there done that with previous cars. The bottom line? Though fun to be quicker? The stock cars are quick enough. Its also nice knowing that your warranty is intact and stock should last a very long time. If you get the mod itch though? I get it. Been there. Just trying to have other people learn from my financial mistakes.

Touring weigh more than the 2.0 sport, it should be a 2.0 sport

Also, stock they are matched because though, the Accord has more power, the GLI is lighter. If the GLI was tuned to have the same horsepower number as the Accord, the Accord would win. Tuned is actually unfair to the Accord if anything because it has more power and it’s lighter. The Accord is the superior car.

Are you blind, the accord won every race fanboy..

it's because 2019+ all the Jetta GLI come with the GTI motor and DSG trans and the same platform. And the GTI/GOLF R have been tuning monsters for a while so it's essentially the same car with a trunk

No bra the gli is compact car class it classed in the same class as the civic its funny that the vw still beat the honda

@@skillzphilly8246 EXACTLY my point. Dont try and twist it slipknot. The GLI is a compact sedan that's meant to weigh as much as a CIVIC SI, but instead weighs as much as a MIDSIZED sport accord. Google it. The autobhan GLI used in this video and the accord sport weigh the same. Yet the GLI pulls. DSG is what kills the accord

Accord seems to be just slightly faster in all tests. Latest test from C&D on the ‘21 Accord was 5.4 0-60. Altima’s slower launch is 100 percent due to the CVT which is slower to respond off the line. Accord has a very low 1st gear which gives it a great launch. Altima might beat it in a roll race though.

@@Ryan57Garr I agree, especially due to the CVT. I still would love to see the race though and think it is strange they have NEVER compared the 2. I can't find 1 video of that comparison. Although the 1 car that did beat the Accord was, surprisingly the Kia K5 GT. That shocked me!
