Where do the german car guys hang out around here? I'm also in NH. Within an hour of portsmouth, manchester etc.

I'm in the UK and no one and I mean NO ONE has winter tyres because we get snow maybe one day of the year but boy oh boy is that one day an absolute shit fest! 🤣

First time on your channel, buying an ARA is on my wishlist when I get my finances nicely sorted (EU fyi, bit harder). Just wanted to leave a comment both for the algorithm and because I love how you enjoy your car while respecting other drivers. Keep it up 💙

your super close by to where i live

This thing sound sick asf

We miss your golf R, i think you do too. Can't beat the pure joy that comes with driving that car. Other cars can be 'better' but iykyk. Love the wheels btw.

Looking at a 2018 golf r with 81k miles and 31 service records with all service intervals done at 20k, 30k and 40k. What is your opinion on it?

would love to be on a vid i got a mk7 gti with vortex xl!

Lucien's GTI is no slouch at all. Watching this video we can't help but be confused on where the rest of its glory is displayed! Your SouthBend Stage 2 Endurance clutch/flywheel and Billet Rear Main Seal upgrades are sad no attention was paid to them. When the downpipe was first in question, all 3 exhaust joints were leaking (2 of which were reducers causing a restriction) -- replaced all with 3" stainless. Not to mention, that $500 of that bill in which the downpipe/no wipers is "all it came back with" went to a brake fluid reservoir. Spark plugs/drivers door latch too. Would love the chance to clear the air further Lucien, especially if you are still having troubles!

I got the same issue with the fuse blowing on my mk7.5 R. It's a simple fix, he just needs to order the after market SMC compressor check valve and that issue will go away. Tank will not lose PSI randomly anymore, tank will fill up faster, no more fuses blowing, etc. fixes all the issues. Edit: and mind you it is also only $25 for this part so about the cost of 3 packs of fuses. In the past month I have gone through probably 8 of these boxes of 40 amp fuses. Recommend replacing it before it blows that little red fuse box completely.

For clout he’s gotta get off the prets.

Lmaooo When he popped the hood 💀😂😂

Sounds nauty 🤌🏽

what's his insta?

I never once launched my Lancer Evolution 9. I don’t see the reason to put that type of wear on my daily. My race car? Yeah sure, but not my daily. I’d rather play it safe. I think the MK8 Golf R will be my next car. I’ve been looking at used M340i’s, CTR-V Blackwings, etc. this car is priced right.

Are you on E85? If you do where do you get it, as a fellow NH man we dont have any E85 to my knowledge

My s3 sunroof creaked since new, even had Audi try their best to fix it but no luck. It drives me crazy but I always listen to my music loud anyway lol

As someone else who lives in NH are you tuned on e85 and if so where do you get it?

Good video with the comparison to choose! If you allow me to get this clip and introduce on my channel with Korean subtitles for people here, that would be very useful to check both golfs! ❤ I really love golf too!

IE off-the-shelf tunes are the way to go, customer service is one of the best.

The 5 pot is amazing

I have this intake on my R with a forge elbow I decided to gold wrap the elbow unfortunately I'm stupid and didn't record before and after intake temps but I don't seem to be having any issues!

I wonder if people do donuts there?

Looks like Ali Express wheels for $250

crazy how far you’ve come. i’ve been here since ur gti. big congrats man

Sick video bro! I'm going to start making POV Drive videos and this helped me out a lot, thanks!

Dude... this is so weird, i was walking my dogs in a neighborhood awhile back and saw a sweet blue Audi, and I'm now seeing this video and, its you. i live literally down the street from you, wtf.

The 5 cylinder sound never gets old❤what are your thoughts on the 8Y gen RS3 by the way😅? Do u prefer the 8V gen or 8Y gen RS3??

NH gang! Those 8V's are such an under appreciated platform.

Just got one, on the pricey side, but its by far the best if you don't wanna drill into your bumper. Tried other "tow hook" variations, they simply don't work right with the parking sensors.

What is the procedure exactly for the anti lag sound launch with the downshift.

Awesome video man. I love these so much 🔥 Also, I’m not a sunglasses expert but I think the frames you have on don’t suit your face shape. Makes you look like you have a sad face, at least to me. If that’s something you don’t really care about, that’s cool 🫡😁

"Obviously, as you can see"

Downpipe won’t ruin it, get a catted one, it’ll get rid of any drone and make it more pronounced. I have the 034 one and I’d highly recommend

If you wanted to go sideways you should’ve gotten a RWD car the way the good lord intended

Does it feel as quick as your stage 2 golf R?

Ya'll noreasters and your Dunkin.....you know it's just diabetes coffee right?

0:06 after hearing that.. im buying 1

Do it. Stage 2 and downpipe and intercooler.

It'll be loud. I have an APR 3 inch downpipe and a 3 inch Neuspeed 3 inch exhaust.

You need to look up the rs3 from Boaz.

Hello, is your RS3 Stock?

Where is this? Dover or Durham? Or is it Portsmouth?

why is your left mirror so zoomed in?

Selling my golf R soon and getting the rs3 this fall🤤🤤

Why do u turn the wheel like its spinning its awd

that GTI is honking hope your R doesnt end up like that

Stunning wheels, do they come in silver finish?

Mine doesn’t shift at 4000 in race, and the delay at partial throttle in manual mode is much longer than stock. Also, my IE stage 1 doesn’t cold start anymore which is fine, idc about how my car sounds when I start it, but weird. Just bummed. I needed a TCU tune so it would stop shifting to 3rd at autox, and went stage 1 because, when in Rome.. If you’re a guy in your 30s and just wants to get to work everyday with an occasional track weekend.. get sticky tires and call it a day. My opinion. Also- the app didn’t work for me when downloading the TCU tune. It kept failing half way. Had to save it with a laptop.

My precious pookie Pete, perhaps it was just the glum weather of the day you record, but i feel you were a little down in this latest video. Is everything okay buddy?
