Is the Garrett PowerMax GT2260S too big for a MK8 GTI?? - VLOG 025

[@closg9309]

I dynoed at 403whp and 400wtq. MK8 GTI 6MT 93 pump gas Powermax EQT tuned. Can’t wait for MPI/E85

[@Ironrain29]

You running stage 2 clutch?

[@JordieG8]

I absolutely love the GT2260. I have one on my S3 and run it on Cobb Flex. Spool and transient response is fantastic. It’s a great turbo if you want to maintain a stock like feel with another 40HP over the IS38.

[@brooksallenyoung]

400+ and still a restrictive setup? That's insane!

[@alexgoodfellow1472]

These videos are are the same quality of these huge channels amazing guys keep it up

[@papayspeanut]

Great job! You can definitely feel the lag on this turbo that’s for sure

[@rambow70]

Are people swapping the Golf R OEM Conti turbo's on MK8 GTI's? I wonder how that would compare?

[@jeremymitchell8470]

I’ve got a manual and the Pmax feels like a rocket above 3700 rpm. Totally different animal than the stock car. I’m going with MPI once I’m due for a valve cleaning.

[@tune_zilla]

Yeah. It’s a different beast for sure. What do you use your GTI for mostly? Daily driving or “Mexico drags”??

[@jeremymitchell8470]

@@tune_zilla daily driving with autocross and have my first track day coming up next month. No Mexico drags.......except the occasional impromptu roll.

Stage 2 clutch?

[@B8_ghostt]

Quick question will there ever be a TCU tune for the Tiguans with the 8 speed Asin transmission, thanks

[@tune_zilla]

We do have plans to continue development on the Tiguan, but at this time we don't have a confirmed timeline.

All these decent prod value low sub low view channels.. must be tought out there

Appreciate the positive vibes! 🙏

[@forestmetten870]

I will be on Unitronics UNIFLEX MPI file next month with the PMAX i do a lot of spirited canyon drives and the occasional 40 or 60 roll , i agree that the stock turbo was very quick to come on and i really enjoy the PMAX POWER IS MORE linear and usable in those canyon runs!

[@tune_zilla]

I think you’ll like it. Sounds weird to say, but the lag actually helps with traction on this little ripper.

[@forestmetten870]

@@tune_zilla i failed to mention i already have the PMAX installed had since October! Definitely agree , you think we will hit 470whp on full E85? I have a catless Milltek dp

[@tune_zilla]

@@forestmetten870 Not sure. We haven't finished with our tuning on E85 yet. Not sure what Unitronic is doing.

[@forestmetten870]

@@tune_zilla low pressure fuel pump and mpi with 980 cc injectors! , ill stay tuned to see what ya guys make.

[@a.c.gaming7452]

Can u map these turbos withiut any other hardware

[@nafakaboy]

how much did all this cost? I also have a 2022 mk8 also in Palmello Yellow i would love to have the hp that you have…..even stock it goes decent….my buddy has a 2021 civic type r and we we r dead even every time…..having 400hp like yours must be a blast to drive. ✌️

[@Ibej79]

Great Work! Are you guys revising the tune for the V6 TDI 3.0 CATA engine code? similar what you guys did with 3.0 TDI CNRB

[@tune_zilla]

Those have been revised and live for a while but we are working on Stage 3 OTS files for select turbo upgrades for the CATA!

[@tonypatterson1419]

What are your thoughts on reliability post turbo swap? I am stage 2 Uni right now with the tcu locked Mk8, but as soon as the tcu gets cracked I would like to go Powermax. I'm just worried that going stage 3 might cut the lifespan of the car in half.

[@bryce850]

I think the lag will help, 1 2 and 3 are almost useless with the stock turbo once tuned.

[@TheSol115]

what psi to get 400 hp ?

[@atom608]

Probably not as laggy as my 2zz celica even though its non turbo lift doesnt kick in till 6k RPM then you get a sudden boost of pretty much 40+ HP, in a 190 car that is alot

[@keanulayman2461]

Hi Tunezilla Great Video ⭐️ Do you mind doing some dragy runs and POV with the car?

[@tune_zilla]

Thanks! We'll be taking this car to the track lots this season and plan to capture our results in future videos.

[@17VWR]

@@tune_zilla hello, could you explain to me what it is about the mk8 that allows for more hp than a mk7 on a Powermax 1? thanks

[@saso525]

Is it possible to get ecu/tcu dq250 maps for garret powermax stage 1 on a seat leon cupra 5f, basically a golf 7r? It has stock mpi, miltek 200cell downpipe, intercooler, drop in air filter, one step colder plugs

[@tune_zilla]

It might be possible. If you open a ticket on our website (tunezilla.com) we can have our calibrator take a look. Be sure to supply your VIN, and if possible, ECU/TCU ID.
