The handling in the curves was awsome. Thanks to his low weight configuration. I was in fact equal to a M240 383HP. STUNNING! I look foward to install the stage 1 plus in the Golf R this spring.

[@detaart]

The whole talk about the fuel isn't technically correct. The horsepower stated by the manufacturer is done with zero timing correction, that is to say the full advance in the base ignition map, under a controlled atmosphere. HOWEVER. The way you guys idle cars in the sun, forever and ever will introduce timing retardation on the base map from higher IATs. The 102 octane in this case will have given you an advantage, because you heatsoak the crap out of the cars you review. You run them back to back and idle them for long periods of time. Hot air means hotter combustion chamber, which means hotter air before compression, so higher likelihood of detonation. Basically, the way the ECU detects a poor grade of fuel is knock detection. If it detects knock, it will back off the timing, thus reducing the power.

I've been seeing a lot of posts about 'South Africans' haha...what am I missing? Is it being imported for the first time or something?🤔

[@SDav21]

@@brianfrisbie7937 No. The Golf GTI and R have a cult like following in South Africa. The whole VW brand actually. We have always had the R and actually they even launched one of the generations in South Africa because of it a few years back and we were the first market to get it.

[@Marcelvandertoorn]

The Golf GTI and Golf R can just be a South African car by now

[@Tilata]

GTI is extremely common in Netherlands too. Especially for young people who want to impress their peers.

[@gloofisearch]

LOL, "I was 82 kilos when I went into tis car, but sweated out 10 kilos when being in this car". Best ever. Well done

[@God_emperor_Doom]

Mat always chooses the fast car even by fault 😂 Poor Sam's reaction was priceless

[@Hefestanios]

*That's the facelifted version of Golf mk7, called mk7.5 with opf that came with model-year 2019. The facelifted mk7.5 came out 2017 and boosted 310hp before opf became mandatory because of eu-regulations. Mk 7.5 also got a new 7-speed gearbox called dq381 vs the 6-speed dq250 in the mk7.

[@TristanRandle]

But obviously you know you’re in a 20 year limited edition running 333bhp. Not sure why you’re saying they are both the same as they are clearly not!

The fact the 8R came only 0.3s behind the modified cars with 450hp is actually very impressive.

[@GhostBestie057]

South A, Sila?😂😂😅

[@wahidkan1165]

Golf 5 R32 is the Winner here in my opinion, No Turbo , Way less HP but still close to the mk7 and mk8 , BEST RESULTS

[@Who_can_save_you_from_hell]

This model is with turbo.

[@RouvenZockt]

Germans watching the video already knew in the intro whats going on here :D

[@nyftn]

did the mk5 have multiple maps ? maybe it was in low boost setting

[@Mk5.maniac]

Probably, I also bet they didn’t know it had launch control or how to go through the steps to use it, car will get a much better start and have higher shift points when that is engaged

[@eugbrat]

The 3dr mk6 is the best looking golf imo and those talladegas on the mk5 ❤

[@SikyGTI]

It's vr6 not v6

[@Quattro_Joe]

@LufusPurplehe is right. Single cylinder head with 6 offset bores. V6 has 2 cylinder heads of 3 cylinders each.

[@SikyGTI]

@LufusPurple ok? Might as well write straight 6 or boxer 6 🤦🏻‍♂️

[@wanabevideographer1613]

It's a nontraditional V6, while it doesn't have two heads, it's pistons aren't aligned in a straight line, nor are they horizontally opposed. In the common engine configurations, it's a V shaped, but for semantics, it's a VR layout.

[@biafo4541]

...so 6 cylinders in a V format...V6

[@dannymullentroll6701]

its commonly known as a v6 since the cylinders are in a V
