MK7 Golf R: 5 Must Have Mods

[@awesomecars1]

What would be your first mod? or your top 5? Let us know below!

[@kieranmanners170]

I planned for a remap by yourselves, but not sure whether to exhaust before remap, then will either be lowering springs or an uptated anti roll bar, i have an octavia vRS estate though 2017

[@awesomecars1]

@@kieranmanners170 We always say a remap is probably the best bang for you buck mod you can do on any car, Most engines come alive after a simple ecu flash over stock. Night and day difference you won't regret it!

[@kieranmanners170]

[@MrIntercoolers]

Exhaust Res delete. Great mod for around £100

[@SgtRock4445]

Stage 1 tune.

[@_Ryphon]

1. Turbo inlet / inlet hose 2. Stock intake w/ performance air filter 3. Stage 1+ w/ engine mount insert 4. Quality cat-back (Remus/Armytrix/Milltek) 5. Ceramic coating or tint

[@MrRonan3]

I had a 7 golf R with dsg. APR stage 1 tune and APR carbon air intake turbo elbow. The difference amazing. Worth every Penny,

[@letv9307]

I had a 2018 auto Mini JCW… I went for budget mods. 1. Ecu Stage 1 2. 30mm lowering springs 3. Resonator Delete 4. Induction kit 5. 20mm rear 15mm front spacers

[@motoarch]

So the 5 most obvious things everyone was going to do anyway presented with the enthusiasm that says 'I don't want to fucking be here today'.

[@johnwjeromejr]

Full APR Stage 2 including all supporting mods (intake, FMIC, downpipe, turbo elbow, etc.) and window tint. Stock wheels, suspension, brakes, and exhaust because I don't track, autocross, or drag race. It's a ton of fun just daily driving it.

[@anthonywood9632]

I’ve got 19 plate one so fun sponge installed, wheels yes I’ve got Cadiz on mine with the Bridgestones from factory still on. Induction kit turbo elbow will be first one to get done before going stage one when vw warranty runs out.

[@awesomecars1]

Nice!

[@w3155ach]

Lighter wheels and better tyres.. best bang for buck I think. Improves unsprung weight, ride and point A to B speed, and aesthetics, without affecting warranty.

[@mickholgate3347]

I'd upgrade tyres before suspension, best bang for buck in handling area. 1.intake 2. downpipe/exhaust 3. remap 4. tyres 5. suspension

[@kaney2011]

Have you guys done a video where you recommend upgrades over known issue parts rather than performance upgrades? Happy with my cars performance so more looking to make it bullet proof than faster….any help appreciated!!

[@neilhibbert5201]

Top 5 mods 1. Ghost immobiliser. 2 turbo elbow. 3 remap 4 air intake mods. 5 drilled and grooved discs and upgrade pads.6 spark plugs.

[@pc2908]

On a Mk7 R with DCC (with an owner that loves the adjustability), is there a better upgrade than Damptronics? Is it worth upgrading? Please help.

[@monya91674]

I got a used mk7R 6MT a few yrs back and waited a while before modding, glad I did: 1. Michelin All season tires 2. APR stage 1 ecu 3. RSR hybrid clutch (had to change after the tune lol) NO chatter. 4. Rear sway bar (for your "spirited" driving experience) extremely helpful for over/under stirring on turns. 5. 3M or similar clear bra for your front, VW paint isn't awesome.

[@nickl451]

how does that clutch feel compared to stock? is travel the same?

[@MYstah]

First mods hopefully all together, Exhaust system and down pipe Intake and turbo elbow intake ecu tune probably add tires for safety measures what do you think?

[@xBobbyDL]

For me it has to be : 1. Resonator Delete (Pre OPF). 2. Intake with Elbow or Turbo Technics/Forge Hose. 3. ECU Map and TCU Map/Clutch Upgrade. 4. Power Flex Dog Bone Mount Insert. 5. Uprated Discs and Pads (VBT and Ferodo DS2500)

[@awesomecars1]

Nice, those are some very good upgrades!

[@bd-dn9hf]

I see I'm a bit late to the party here, but a quick question... If you do the ecu mod on a manual, do you need to upgrade the clutch? Thanks, keep making your great informational vids.

[@Dkvwagen]

Highly recommended to do it right away! I’ve seen people go a couple hundred miles on a stock clutch after a tune and I’ve seen people only go a couple before it fails. A must have for sure.

[@zounds13]

The stock clutch is marginal, even for a GTI. Mine failed at around 45,000 miles (before I even went stage 1).

[@_Demonsthenes_]

Tune (biggest difference over any mod youd really ever do again). I personally opted for EQT for their smooth delivery of power, but you can’t go wrong with APR or IE. Do your research and pick your poison. This includes your TCU tune for any DSG owners. turbo inlet pipe, this is really what clogs things up, you could get an AFE Filter and one of these and easily out flow all of these 400 dollar intakes. So unless you got a good deal on an intake keep that in mind. Also for you APR fans I’m sorry to tell you their intake is the worst flowing one of them all. Downpipe, such a huge difference in terms of sound. I opted for a high flow cat to save me some of the drone. But this mod will make your car much louder plus allow you to go to stage 2. Do88 Intercooler, the stock Intercooler is very restrictive even for stock power numbers. If you’re looking to do canyon runs or track this car. You will see a huge improvement, as the stock Intercooler heat soaks very quickly. (It’s quite thin, if you’ve never seen the difference in size alone you’ll be amazed when you look it up). Sway Bar, the turn in on these cars isn’t all that great. But for all of you backroad carving maniacs, can have this problem solved and you won’t have to spend an arm and a leg. Bonus tips, An intake will be the easiest thing you ever install. If you are bringing your brakes to get done make sure they know what they are doing. I got my car from a bmw dealership… who didn’t tell me they snapped the rotor set screw off in the assembly, or stripped the other one out so bad you’ll have to use an angle grinder to get it off. Also VW loves their single use bolts so everytime you do your brakes, change a steering wheel, or anything else really you’re gonna need all new bolts. Take your engine cover off and check for any snapped clips. The bmw dealer snapped the clips holding the coil packs on so you can’t get them off without special tools. No your colored coil packs do not give you more power. (tHeY gIvE 20 pErCeNt MoRe SpArK eNeRgY). Also look behind the engine at the valve cover seals, they use RTV as a gasket so odds are it’s leaking (also if it is check your cylinder 4 spark plug, it’s probably got oil on it). Don’t ask me how I know all of this.

[@Nahimgood3]

What is your overall impression of the racing line BBK, I have a 2022 8Y S3, thinking of getting the 6 piston 380mm RL kit, I tried emailing racing line many times to no avail which makes me uncomfortable spending 4k USD. Any cons overall? Replacement pads and rotors easily findable? pedal feel? fade? any difference in emergency braking?

[@jamesrichardson4604]

Totally agree with you , exactly what I did with my mk4 golf gti that was with you yesterday. Has evolved a bit more over the 18years I've owned it lol 😆.

Im in a Cupra,but: Racingline intake + all the trimmings done Ecu + TCU done Girodiscs fitted with endless pads and metal braided lines Last week I have put in the racingline chassis brace Currently waiting on H&R swaybars to arrive Then its gonna be the subframe locks + dogbone locks After these get done : all the cooling will be replaced plus a catch can

Longterm plan: whole chassis to go verkline (but thats probably in 2-3 year’s time)

[@awesomecars1]

nice a very nice list of mods there!

[@hristohristov8787]

I will personally go slightly different way before pushing the power up first mod will be the brakes(fluid,pads and rotors) Second mod will be lightweight wheels Third mod will be suspension setup eg. coilovers,anti roll bars,full geometry setup Then I will push the car to it's limit on track with the stock power,for me there is no point to up the power until you are able to fully handle the stock level. Afterwards will probably go for intercooler if necessary Then will be intake,ECU remap,exhaust/downpipe That is from me🤙

[@awesomecars1]

Each to their own, still a great list!

[@oscarafael]

Thinking about Track days. I'd say: -Brake update (Disc, Pads, Fluid, Caliper rebuild) -Polybush -Suspension -Wheel & tyres -Remap What you guys think? I have a Scirocco 2.0 TSI

[@jamessohl733]

My first mod was a set of paddles as the stock ones are horrid. I have now just ordered a set of raceline springs and dampers as the stock damping is lacking and the car has poor body control. Then it will be the brakes. They feel under nourished on a B road and would Wilt quickly on track. My car is road biased so upgraded pads and discs plus some extra cooling. I see no point in giving. Car more power until it can stop and corner appropriately. Then. It’s most likely an intake and a tune, but for me they come lower down the list.

[@mikepollastrelli7725]

Fair warning don't ever buy ecs tuning branded shock mounts. I had a bilstein/h&r SS cup kit installed on my mk5 gti barely over a year ago. Not even 3 months after there was so much play from the cheaply made rear shock mounts the suspension rattled over bumps (this was installed by a professional shop). For the life of me couldn't figure out where the noise was coming from and it took me several months to finally figure it out. Recently had the mounts replaced with OE spec Lemfoerder mounts. Don't ever cheap out with the "assembled by ecs tuning" junk.

[@ethanluu3011]

Great video Chaps, I recently picked up a MK7 R and this has given me some great pointers, i think tyres are a Great starting point, I then plan on intake, tune, brakes then exhaust, I am loving the content, keep up the good work 👌🏻

[@awesomecars1]

Very nice! good luck with it and if you need any help just give us a call :)

[@_Demonsthenes_]

An AFE filter and a turbo inlet pipe will breathe just the same as an intake, for half the cost. plus unless your stage 2 you really don’t need it. (Which you can’t do without a downpipe). There’s a guy online who flow tested every intake, wealth of information on his site. (mygolfmk7.com/2019/09/ultimate-mk7-gti-air-intake/). Try a downpipe first, it could easily be loud enough for you, I’ve had plenty of people think I had an exhaust because of it; Plus you need it for stage 2 anyway. The brakes are very good for stage 1-2 unless you track or do canyon runs, just get some good pads. There’s ton of info online as far as the best performing pads on golf r’s. I daily drive on some EBC yellow pads, and they stop just fine. Just some advice from a EQT stage 2 2016 Golf R owner haha. Also Facebook marketplace is your best friend. I have saved well over 2 thousand dollars in the past few months. a brand new IE downpipe for 400 bucks, a 1700 dollar forged carbon steering wheel for 500 bucks to name a few.

Change the downpipe before you modify your exhaust. Start from the front and work your way to the back.

Then you can use it on track and get to know the car as you upgrade. I don't know you have car slalom in UK. In america they call it "auto cross".. Upgrade it and use it on track/race it. Upgrade it a little at time and then you will know your car better.
