how do you actually tune the car though i’m so confused, get the dongle, then a cheap android tablet hook it up to your car and then do what from there to tune it I’m just confused, recently just blew my stock turbo looking to go bigger one so I need to do a new tune.

Does the oil separator fails were boost gets in to the crankcase??
@datadrivenmqb 9 күн бұрын
Most people don't understand anything about this system. If the one way check valve fails (just inside the blue passage) then it'll push boost pressure into the outer area of the valve, but much will just be vented into the TIP with some on the crankcase. But it won't be like putting 25psi or whatever straight to the crankcase. Most common failure (of MK7 valves) seems to be the diaphragm ripping, which means it's loses the atmosheric pressure reference and it because an intake air leak at idle while also not closing the diaphragm.
@SRalgarve1965 9 күн бұрын
@ Yes I’m familiar with the diaphragm failure but was wondering if there was a possibility of getting boost in the crankcase thru one of those check valves, thanks for the response
@datadrivenmqb 9 күн бұрын
@ no problem. In a nut shell it moreso interferes with blowby escaping than directly pressurizing the crankcase significantly.

I just got the full retrofit for my 2020 vw GLI, However i cant seem to find a inlet tube that will fit and clip in place i have tried IE,034,Afe, Arm, and velt by urotuning none of these inlet pipes allow the use of the tiguan venturi, Either the angle is off or the pcv port is not deep enough to allow the "clip"to engage.

@datadrivenmqb 19 күн бұрын
@@crimsonsw21 I like them overall. Car looks great IMO. In hindsight I would put the TT spring pads in the rear to maintain a tiny bit of rake. I suspect this varies by car though so may not be necessary on all. I MAY go back to stock (or maybe try Golf R springs), but only because my driveway is somewhat steep and when the car is loaded down with extra tires, tools or our two dogs, it scrapes the rear mud flaps in and out. I did play around with bump stops quite a bit. Fronts are FEBI 22641 (meant for a Volvo) with 5mm trimmed off the TOP, and rears are 10mm trimmed off the TOP as well. Top is done to keep the soft progressive "nose" of the bump to ensure no abrupt engagements mid corner.

The TCR cars run 5W30 Castrol in engines that originally called for 5w40 for reference. Lots of differences between that and a street car as to why they'd run that but bottom line thicker oil won't hurt it. I'd do 0w30 if it won't see track time/250F+ oil temps. 5w40 if tracking the car.

@@whoismario I'm not sure I'd do it without the Venturi (and even then 15-18 valves already pull on the cam cover, would only potentially make things worse). Knowing what we know now, 19+ are ideal candidates for the MK8 PCV since the stock operation is most similar to the MK8 flow path. 17-18 are somewhat successful, but seems the limits are lower. They're more of a mixed bag. It just depends on so many factors it's hard to say.

Hi, thank you really so much for these videos! I came across your videos because I recently started doing track days with my MK7.5 GTI (2017, DLB engine) and had problems. As you mentioned, terrible white smoke would occur on right hand turns and I got flagged doing my first track day. Also I noticed huge amount of oil usage, like a full service + 2 liters more in just 4000km so very very bad. I do have a Stage 2 Revo tune with 200cpi downpipe, do88 full intercooler and MST complete intake (TIP, hose and filter). Now I was considering putting a RacingLine complete catch can kit with PCV plate, but I would probably wait for that and try instead putting back the OEM Intake and see if I do still have issues on track. I also had a compression test done and it came out perfectly so thank you again for all the info, they were really needed!

I've only directly checked out the APR and saw no reason to not use it over anything else. It has a check valve to prevent damage to the N80 valve plus the catch can isn't stupid to empty and doesn't require removal of a TTY engine mount bolt like the VWR. IMO the VWR is poorly thought out and with both being basically the same price the choice is easy. Though those 2 are the most popular options (anecdotally).
