I’m so happy I found you on KZbin. Not many people working on GTi’s on here, not that I know of. Great video

[@redlightrael1993]

Try allen yoho, also I will be buying one soon and modding on my KZbin channel.

[@Sergygo]

I got a GTI and im modding it a got a vfew videos to upload, i got a mk6 6speed so sub up videos coming soon!

[@JacesOwnWorld]

Are you serious? There are hundreds of videos of people working on the MK7 GTI, and thousands of videos of people working on GTI’s in general on KZbin. Everything he is doing to his GTI has already been done many times over, with a plethora of videos on it for the GTI. Do you not know what the search button is?

[@malowmo1440]

@@JacesOwnWorld I’ve probably seen every video on KZbin with GTi / Golf R builds etc.. I haven’t seen much people post videos on GTi recently. Maybe you can help me Jace and list a few down below . Makes my life easier

[@JacesOwnWorld]

@@malowmo1440 since you seem to be new to the search bar on KZbin (LOL), type in “MK7 GTI” and then in the filters section with the three bars, click on that, and then click the “upload date” option. You will see every most recent MK7 GTI vid posted, from earliest on. Good luck 🤣

[@zed0k]

You should look to disable the soundaktor. It's a little device that pumps amplified audio from the engine into the cabin. The car sounds much better with it turned off, you can hear the turbo spooling. I have had it off for 4 years now, it's night and day. You can either just unplug it, or you can code if off / code it to a lower volume using ODB Eleven, or VCDS.

[@davekal]

Or you can unplug and remove it completely. I wrapped the end with electrical tape just in case.

[@jamesroquemore2616]

One of the best parts of the GTI is how quiet the interior is. It does not feel or sound like a cheap economy car.

[@logan4706]

I just did a rear sway bar and end links. If they offer them for the gti I highly recommend it as an upgrade. Keeps the car planted to the ground.

[@redlightrael1993]

It would of been cool if you had gone to the same street where you first did the test run on the stock catback, to see back to back comparison then hit the canyon. Still love the video just a thought I had, I think it makes a difference driving on the street in town vs out in the canyons.

[@1ukas]

one of the best car channels on youtube by far

[@Code-n-Flame]

Happy I found this channel. This dude has made me want to get a downpipe installed on my 2013 Fender Beetle. Question; is a tune NECESSARY after installing a downpipe? Only reason I ask is because the only thing I’ve done with it is a resonator and muffler delete. A high flow cat is definitely getting installed along with the downpipe as well.

[@CameronAlford]

Yes anytime you install a downpipe you need a tune that can compensate for the extra fuel needed for the car to run properly now that you have all that extra air flow 👍🏻

[@MutherRussia90]

Can't wait to get mine in and installed..

[@realityisbendable1008]

I like your video format! Just picked up my 21 MK7 on Sunday! Will definitely want this exhaust !

Sounds good. As you said, you need a race-catalyc convertor or catless downpipe to remove the exhaust restrictions from the stock ceramic cat. On my 2013 Mk7 GTI (Germany) you can remove the 4,000 limiter by putting the car in ESC sport. Not sure if it works on the later NA models. You can have a try.
