Paul, great effort, one thing EVERYBODY is forgetting,,,, you own that car, it is your car to live with. When the media tests a car, they hammer the living crap out of the unit and hand back all the bits and pieces back to the manufacturer to put back together. I think a better test and way easier on the drivetrain would be a rolling start and pull through all the gears. That is more "consumer-centric" as that would help determine what the car would be like entering a freeway on ramp that is short and has a semi bearing down at you doing 75MPH!!!!

@3:30 the reason you see more torque overshoot in 4th is because the ecm is managing the overshoot in a time-dependent manner and you're plotting over RPM. Take a look at the samples - the overshoot in either gear takes roughly the same number of samples to correct (I'm assuming the dynojet samples at a constant frequency no matter the gear). Also, the turbo accelerates in fewer rpm when in 4th, so the absolute torque is a little higher.

The dsg declaires 13.8 because it has launch controle plus the auto puts down the power more easy.

I'd suggest going out on the street and doing some practice launches with the traction control off and familiarizing with where the sweet spot is in the rpms to get a decent launch. You'll need to slip the clutch and get the car to start moving rolling, then pop the clutch as you get off the line (this will get the car to jump forward, rather than spin off of the line). Admittedly, I currently have a DSG and it is a lot simpler. However, I previously ran a MK3 VR6 and hit a 14.6 at 95 mph in the 1/4 with a 2.3 60' on street tires on a 98 degree Fahrenheit day in the middle of August in N.C.

Dyno'd at 172 whp/162 whtq on a mustang dyno. Also had some suspension work done (H&R springs, Bilstein HD shocks, poly motor mounts).

I'm looking into fueling solutions right now, but I'm not too keen on the idea of running water-methanol injection to break 400 whp.

@@Deutscheautoparts I don't think it was traction control. I think with how you dumped the clutch, the car saw wheelhop and thought "oh no you're spinning out/wrecking!" and tried to wrangle it back in with stability management/control, which can't be turned fully off according to US laws. Try slipping the clutch a little longer next time. I've done 14.0 in a friends stock MK8 GTI on this exact Rockingham Speedway track by doing that. Same tires, everything. I have a lot of drag racing experience, but he managed a 13.9 after me by doing what I showed him. If you ride the clutch a little uncomfortably long, it does much better 60' times as the stability control doesn't kick in on you.

How many miles are on it at the time of launching? You probably also got slower times with how bad the stock clutches have been in the past. My MK7.5 R had a hard time after a few pulls and I feel it get more spongy/have softer engagement for sure after a few pulls. I’m not ballsy enough to launch my car until I get my new clutch in and go through the proper break in procedure. I bet once you take out the clutch bleeder block restricter, braided steel clutch line, and practicing where the car likes to launch, you will be able to match or beat the projected times. Keep up the awesome work Paul! I love your videos! They have helped me a lot when it comes to modding my cars and just having good laughs. I super appreciate everything you do!

Ran a 14.8 in my stock mk6 GTI 6mt, was a good challenge. Used to hold it at 3k rpm, have the clutch just barely engaged and handbrake pulled, would drop the handbrake and clutch and let the wheels slip through 1st and usually would hook in 2nd. It was kinda spinning is winning because as soon as you run out of front suspension extension that’s when it spins the tyres. Would recommend finding a quiet street and practicing the launch routine for a manual GTI just to get the action down and in muscle memory if you catch my drift.

I think those are great times for stock tires, cold track, and FWD torquey-boi. People need to understand that with magazine times, car manufacturers KNOW they're gonna be tested for 0-60, 1/4, and all that, so they will send their absolute best example. There have been more than a few "scandals" over the years where auto manufacturers were busted sending cars with higher compression, more aggressive tunes, stickier/non-factory tires, and etc. So they'll do anything to give themselves better numbers. In the real world, these numbers rarely translate. Good job buddy, no flaming from me. With better tires, slipping the clutch just a little more, and some luck, 13.9-14.0 definitely possible with a 98-99mph trap. Good job either way!

100% agreed. I'm glad at least one person in the comments got that. I would be willing to bet that the 'official' times were probably run with the same Toyo R888s that they sent their demo car over here equipped on. I also think that slipping the clutch is going to be key to getting a decent launch, as I've commented elsewhere here. People don't understand how to launch a FWD car and frequently tend to either bog/spin off of the line. It's a balancing act and you really only get it down by practicing a lot until you get the feel for it.

From system and control theory that spike is what refered to as an overshoot in the step response. It's usually undesirable when tuning the models controller. It's likely that the models controller was tuned in 3rd gear and not 4th. That why the step response are a better. But I'm guessing that the models use dynamic coefficients. So it would be interesting to see if the car continues to do this after you're driven it for a while.

Most people don't understand how hard you have to be on a car to get a good 1/4 mile time. I got a 14.3 at 100mph in my stock mk6. That's with absolutely slamming the gears, and a high rpm launch that absolutely cooks the clutch. Literally 70% of the time in 1st gear was with the clutch slipping instead of the tires. Also using the e-brake to preload the entire drivetrain to eliminate the sudden jolt on launch that starts wheel slip.

Thats why i got it on my tuned GTI Clubsport. Stage 1 at 360 hp / 462 tq . Might be goin Stage 2+ later, maby Revo for ECU, TVS for dsg TCU tuning! Would be pushing over 400 hp though. Follow build at my channel! 👍

235whp/297wtq on your mk7 GTI on what I assume is that same dyno compared to this 252whp/316wtq of the mk8. Decent little bump, I'm curious to see what the gains over stock are on a "stage 2" tune on the mk8 vs the mk7.

Agreed, while the stock Mk8 may be more powerful than the stock Mk7, I imagine the tuning limits will be similar, meaning a Stage 2 Mk7 and Stage 2 Mk8 will be similar

I'm more curious to see where these land with just a stage 1 on 93 octane, since the Stage 2 path is being forcefully phased out by emissions regs in the 🇺🇸. They really don't want us to have downpipes haha

My first run was 15.0 in my 7.5 ( stage 3 clutch, catback, intake and some firehawks, no tune) and as the prep wore off i became slower. 15.5 being my worst.

2022 Subaru BRZ posted much faster times and a higher trapspeed with 30whp, and 120wtq less than this mk8 gti. I always tell people to not get the stick shift in a gti or golf r, DSG will hold much much more torque with less issue.

Would never choose DSG in a GTI or something else Manual is the only way to drive a GTI No better feeling than dropping gears in a corner and feeling the clutch and brake and then accelerating through the gears and so on DSG gives no driver enjoyment May as well drive a automatic

@@robertroberts9854 dsg is an automatic. It automatically shifts for you. Totally agree with you though. Driving a manual is just a lot more respectable. Racing an auto is like seeing who can flip a light switch faster. Sure there are variables. Maybe yours is rusty and old and you're up against a crisp new one. Maybe you lubed yours up and idk added a spring to it to make it faster. Cool. But in the end you're both just flipping a light switch.

@@luislozano1513 DSG paddles shifts I meant , but I get the point Like a said, I've driving a DSG GTI mk7 and I driving a Manual GTI mk7 and the DSG is boring and gives no driver enjoyment, that's why I bought the Manual But that's my opinion, I understand why people choose DSG, but GTIs or any Hot hatch has to be a manual in my view, otherwise just by fully automatic and an electric car

​@@sethwalker8952 I'm not surprised they suck at drag racing, when they have to do everything else as well. The tyres are also an essential part of the WLTP score, so the manufacturer would of course choose a more eco friendly tyre on anything but a race car. Sure it's a GTI, but it's still a Golf.

With the way he was launching the car, not even drag radials would have made a significant difference. He needs to learn how to slip the clutch as the car is first getting off of the line, then release the clutch fully once the car has begun to roll forward.

*Mustang Dyno Entered the Chat* - “That will be 211 whp and 221 ft lbs.” All jokes aside that’s impressive. I think the interior of the mk8 is absolutely terrible but I may look past this because it looks so good and given this power, I’m excited.
