A rear sway bar in an mk7 GTI is So easy and cheap and quick to do while also making instant differences to driving and fun, That is probably one of the first upgrades I would do for around 150 bucks.

@@mikestewart9088 depends on what type of car you have. On a gti a rear sway bar makes sense since it is fwd and prone to understeer, a rsb removes some of that understeer and makes it much more neutral. However on a s2000 a rear sway bar will make the car way too prone to understeer since it’s a rwd car

I was getting work done on my mk6 for the hundredth time at the dealership 😂, and ended up leaving the lot with a 2020 Mk7.5! When I bought it they said, the tech who owned it installed an is38 with an after market exhaust. I didn’t know what an is38 was until my uncle tried to race in his 392 scat pack. Couldn’t believe my car could even keep up let alone walk him. Now the family joke is “Homie got walked by a golf.” 😂 Definitely happy I bought one of these. Seems like they are also fairly reliable compared to the mk6.

If you lower the Mk7 GTI you should seriously consider replacing the oil pan with a metal one. I'm still stock height and cracked open my OEM plastic pan on a chunk of ice a couple weeks ago. Also, OBDeleven is a great and inexpensive way to make tweaks to anything electrical (i.e. headlights, taillights, turn signals, windows, door locks, throttle response, steering, LSD behavior, etc.)

Till then it will be supporting parts for the tune ie. Intercooler, catch cans, suspension ect. So about $4k worth of parts for a $500 tune lol.

I have a mk6 gti and I was looking at the König Ampliform but I decided that the Neuspeed rse12 was a better option for a few reasons. The first is that the rse12 are lighter this less rotational mass. The second is that the rse12 have a bore size of 57.1 which directly matches with the gti so I don’t have to do any extra stuff for them to work and won’t have to deal with vibrations. I wish you guys sold Neuspeed because they make more direct matches with Volkswagen and Audi vehicles than a lot of other brands.

i bought a 2020 golf 1.4 tsi and have done a resonator and muffler delete and added a forged carbon wing so far. I'm looking to get 18" wheels and then going to lower it 1" and i want to add a GTI diffuser instead of my fake exhaust port looking diffuser lol. Any tips on where i can locate decent stuff to put on the car?

DSG is a beast with a tune. I'm Stage 2 with EQT and their DSG tune and it's perfect. Aftermarket manual clutches on these can be hit or miss and the "best one" depends on your needs. If you never want to go above a Stage 2, you can make a TTRS clutch work for a stock like driving experience. Otherwise you're swapping to single mass flywheel life and you're gonna have to deal with some driveline chatter. Plus you run a higher risk of thrust bearing wear with aftermarket clutches. I won't blame anyone for getting a manual MK7, but it's simply a case of choosing one of the best affordable automatic in the world that takes to mods easily or a wholly mediocre manual that needs some work to handle mods. I daily my DSG and I'm looking for a manual weekend car. Best of both worlds.
@rodriguezsax
@rodriguezsax 2 жыл бұрын
A southbend stage 2 or 3 clutch will handle whatever you'd like to do, last a long time, and be easy to daily drive. I've heard nothing but horror stories about the "weak manuals" and "faster dsg" but I smile from ear to ear every time I rip through the canyons in my 6mt GTI. No complaints here. The DSG is amazing but I enjoy rowing my own gears. To each their own, we're lucky to have so many options.

PSA: Do NOT trust those Cobb OTS tunes, or the majority of FREE ones out there. They've been known to blow some motors. Spend the 150-200 bucks for a proper one, just a simple "stage 1" will net you nearly 300whp in a lot of cases and around 350lb/ft at the wheels.

@@hendawg3048 proper for an OTS, I should say. Companies develop their tunes with a shop car and can mass market the same file for cheaper. They also benefit from the large amounts of input and feedback they get from their customer base. The tolerances of these motors are known to be very consistent from one to another, making it fairly safe to grab a well-developed OTS file and slap it on your car. Of course, there's different requirements for each stage and often times there will be different files for that stage (such as if you have an upgraded HPFP vs. Stock for a Stage 2 file), but unless you're going big turbo a custom tune really isn't all that necessary with these cars unless you're tuning for something specific like MPI or WMI. A couple reputable companies would be Equilibrium Tuning, Integrated Engineering, APR, as well as others.
