How much BHP does an Intercooler ADD to my VW MK8 GOLF R? 

Downpipe next

Only legends know that he had that north face hoodie for more than 3 years

And the mods have begun! Can't wait to see how this turns out 😁 We're happy you like our intercooler! //Lukas

Common misconception that I/C doesn't add BHP - it does 😎. 20bhp is a great result in this instance

You don't mess around when it comes to getting the mods inn sick car bro to the moon 😎👌👊

The intercooler is one of my most over looked mods on my MK7. But when I’ve hit the track and see other cars tap out I remember why I got it 😅

Rate the consistency lately! Been watching the channel from day dot

Loving how you're doing this one bit at a time, instead of getting it all done in one video. Keeps the content fresh and interesting👌🏽👌🏽

Regards to the spoiler - I personally used 3M VHB 5952F to secure my lip spoiler on my 5 Series. It's litrally the best tape I've used to secure it. I recommend using that before splashing the cash on anything else.

I appreciate your verifying the upgrade intercooler performance versus the OEM unit. I look forward to your continued verification of any additional mods versus the OEM parts. Bring on the DATA!🙂

I saw your golf r video and immediately changed my gti order to a golf r roll on 2024 new favourite RU-vidr

20hp only intercooler is really good

Up to 20 bhp from just the inter cooler 😮 impressive 👍

DO88 is what I have on my 911 Turbo. Good quality items.

Try put 3m command strips on the spoiler there really strong and won’t fall off at high speeds

Makes a huge performance difference mate 🔥👍

Nothing better for the engine than good fuel and cold air

Solid intercooler that. Looks really well engineered.

“Everything gets filmed, that’s how a video is made” 😂😂really loving this car, really didn’t want to as I have the 7.5 but v jealous 😂doing a great job boss👌🏽🫶🏽🤘🏽

Will probably end up hitting close enough to the top end of 400 maybe even hit 500 with a decat and opf delete.

Can't wait for the downpipe update man! Things a beast already. There was an 8R in West Germany that was crashed and selling for parts. I'll look it up for the performance pack spoiler and if it's available, will inform you. They are quite expensive right now though, idk if it's worth it

Never really liked the MK8 R when it came out but definitely after seeing this one it’s certainly has a lot of potential

Props to the constant dyno conparisons.

Nice gains. Looking forward to downpipe and other mods!

You can tell how much you enjoy this am glad you got your hands on a sick whip not that others aren’t but a new car and you have gone all out on it ❤

Often wondered if i should chnage mine on the S3 ... interesting ....

Exhaust then eventuri intake and racingline gas strut next

And just like that ordered the Intercooler

Cannot wait for downpipe and exhaust, im loving the mk8 more and more

Another great video with lots of clear information...

we welcome you back Hamza this thing is a beast !!!

5% increase. Its good result and very health for engine :) Also it should increase remap potential a bit more and must have much better benefit in very hot days :)

This version of the golf GTI CS and R is now showing where the money has been spent everyone banging on about corners cut😊😂😂

Love these videos. Wee question, i went back to your early videos and saw you started with the S3. What made you switch to the Golf R if you were going to be doing all these mods anyway?

Hamza it would help if you talk about pricing etc.

Interesting engineering decision to put the FMIC behind the A/C condensor. Normally the other way around, would make more sense to do it this way, especially in a performance car. RS3 has it directly at the front, as do Mitubishi Evos and countless others. If it works it works I guess.

Can't wait to hear the exhaust once the downpipe is done.

Put a exhaust on your golf r

I love seeing this! Here in the states and pumped to she what she can do! Have a manual so I know my first mod 😂

Wonder what stage 2 would be pushing if this is only "stage 1" ish👀

Great video like always, can't wait to see more mods on the MK8 🔥🔥

More mods, just another amazing video, lots of support from South Africa brother 💪🔥💥

Brave on a new car that's the warranty gone south lol going to be a serious bit of kit when it's all done great video as always 👍

We still don’t have this car in South Africa but funny enough the RS3 was launched a month ago

@TRHamza, love your videos bro. I have a VW mk8 Golf 21 plate that I'm in the middle of modifying and would really appreciate a chat for your knowledge as already done it

Thanks! :), that was i wanted to see result with! :), the Awesome do88 Intercooler :)

Dug is like a tuning god 👍

It would be interesting to know how much of a hit to fuel economy over stock all these performance mods cause...

Gettttt up boy, love the videos man liking this project, whens the next ?

So it gained all that extra horsepower with out any changes to the tune? All from the intercooler?

All those stone chips on that cooler will also restrict flow. top content as always 👌

Love it

Love it man! Answered the very question I had!

Hamza really hope you could help me. What was the reason you went with do88 over Wagner. People scream Wagner being the best but you was bold enough to go with another brand and I’m intrigued as to why because I’m in the same situation now but on a MK7 R. Which do I go with

Hamza dont sell this nd the m5 both amazing cars much love from me ur doing amazing

Hamza the only guy i could buy a car off without seeing it first

TNF should sponsor this guy

Damn I need to get my Audi s3 one. EQT stage 2 E85 with stock intercooler.

Hey, I have just bought an E60 M5, I pick it up in 2 weeks. I actually live quite close to you :). What has it been like owning on for you? I've wanted one for a long time but was and still am nervous about reliability. Other then what we've seen in the videos, whats it been like?

Excellent and you only get better

Sick car bro 🔥👊🏽

Mans on holiday but I’m still gonna watch 👍🥶

Dyno Jets always make you feel good. 😂

Great work. Any idea of 0 to 60 and 1/4 mile with just the intercooler and stage 1 map?

Need to get new exhaust bro

Another quality video 👍 You should bring that to Scotland and try some proper roads.

Ayyy someone trade my stage 3 R for a Mk8. This guy makes feel like I'm done with my Mk7 😭🔥

ive seen stage 2 mk8 gtis doing 440bhp , so i cant wait to see stage 2 figures in the future.

Another great update bro. Can’t wait to see it out on the road 👍

Great video again! What do you do for a living?

At what point do you need to upgrade the clutches in the dsg? How much torque can the gearbox handle?

Want to have the stage 1, at the same time don’t want to lose warranty. 😢

Doesn't matter, still isn't a MK7.5 R ;) jk rad car man! :):):) love the vids

The mk8 gti might easily get close to 400 HP with bolt on and stage 2 tune

Is it really effective? I want to add an intercooler to my AUDI s3 8Y 2022 but I only want to do stage 1 does it really help or is necessary to add it and does it add more HP to my car ?

I wanna know if that metal oil pan will fit on the gen 3 tsi?

How come u were running 400 after stage 1 tune

This intercooler wich better than forge?

Keep the great content coming. +1 sub!

Shame they still don't make for MK7.5 intercooler pipes...

Impressive!

The gel 3M tape is garbage what you used on the spoiler any water lifts it off

Do you know if the engine is the same in the Cupra Formentor 310 is it a gen 4 aswell?

Still would like to know the cost of the tune from mrc 🤷🏻‍♂️🤔

Quality!

So, does the mk7 intercooler fit the mk8?

This is not the performance? Big difference?

Racing line intake next?

you gonna get it stage 3 ?

Nice upgrade, but the jubilees look a bit disappointing, Thought it would have the proper boost pipe clamps with it?

shame spoiler didnt work out

Wer can I get this done

Good job I like you car❤

How much do mrc charge for mk8 r remap

How did you find the fitment and also what is the core size? I have a pumaspeed 65mm core on my octavia vRS mk3 (ea888) and im finding the fan surround is practically touching the engine, with no adjustment the mechanic reckons. so contemplating removing and getting an airtec which is 60mm

Put Misha behind the wheel and let's see the mk8 vw r full potential

when r600 evo + exhaust ?

Question for you, all these mods including the stage 1 etc… does it void the VW warranty ?

Does doing the down pipe make the car no longer road legal in the uk? I have a Golf r but want a better sound from the exhaust but worried about messing with the pf

that is one big ass intercooler lol!
