Tuning my K04 Turbo`d Mk5 Golf GTI !! 

Cheers!! Give e us a share to like minded people and I'd appreciate it greatly 🙏

Cheers. It's always the plan to continue but time is an issue for me atm. Videos will be coming soon though

Haha yes you are pal 👍🤣. That was fun 👌. Appreciate the kind words 🙌

Appreciate it pal 👍

Cheers Andrew, it has surprised me to be fair. Very happy with it 👌

Awesome pal 🙌 Great result. I've never used ECM Titanium - Always Winols. Just shows it doesn't matter what you use dude, it's how you use it 👌

@DecimalTenths winols looks better for ecu, ECM titanium is really good for DSG mapping though

Yes!! If looked after I think it will last... but then I would say that 😝

Cheers!

Thankyou dude. Just doing what I do. No wizardry here... just trial and adjustment 👌

👍

Greets!! Yes they are pretty immense! I don't normally see these numbers on our dyno. It's a great setup which just works 👌

Class mate thankyou 🙏

Road test and check, heated seats wiring install and then kick its #### in 🔥🤣

Cheers dude 😁

Worth every penny pal.

Haha mental. Sometimes I wish it was like that here...😬

@@DecimalTenths Not if you want to make good power 😆

Cheers!! Video coming 👌

Cheers pal, Yeah I'll be doing it this week, soon as the rain stops...🤣

I prefer a full fat k04 to be honest.

Yes, go the k04 it's a weapon@@DecimalTenths

Cheers 👌

Yeah, cant wait 👌

Cheers 👌

Yeah should be fun 🤙

Will certainly be trying 🙏

Please do pal 👍

Cheers pal, they already do...😬.

@@DecimalTenths its a great set up mate and having a TT MK2 with a bwa its got me thinking 🤔

@Car Chris K04 will be the best thing you do in my opinion pal. I love em with the AS core.

Mint 👍

🙌

My golf estate dsg tcu damage I oder a used tcu will I need to programe it in oder for it work ?

Much appreciated pal, I know I need to sort it out 🙈

Thankyou buddy 🙏

Yeah, and still going 💪

@@DecimalTenths that's awesome dude. If one was to bring a mk5 gti into you, what would the charge me for a package like this? Thanks again pal

🙌

Cheers, will do 👌

Thankyou pal 🙌

Surprisingly well to be fair. It would be amazing with an LSD though 🙌

Weve got a hybrid build about to start. Doubt we will be touching internals yet though

👍

Yes I'll be doing that soon 👍

🙏👍👍

This week 😁

Yeah if I needed to push the tuning then I would explore more options. However this is a stock BWA motor so happy where it is. I have targeted 133bar HP at peak rpm , and Im only creeping slightly over that so happy with control of that also.

​@@DecimalTenths is it the 7+7 or the 6+6 blade core?

Thankyou pal, stock k04 injectors 🔥

Where are you dude? Some damn good TFSI tuners out there.

@Decimal Tenths I'm based in Manchester. I have had the car 3 years now and like you paid 2.5k I've probably spent x10 that amount on the car buying all the bits. Having a bad Map put on the car from a. Company based here.. mis diagnosed issues and created more issues with brand new parts!! Currently running 300bhp and 300 ftlbs.. but the car was mapped with many issues.. which I've since tackled. But I'm currently at a point of.. 02 sensor fault.. brand new bosch one installed.. still same fault code.. runner flap won't adapt in vds so replaced motor but still won't adapt. Also brand new ko3 hybrid.. After tuning company was just guessing why it wasn't making power. Adjusted the actuator. And has caused the rattling noise. After researching. I know the two things I haven't got.. is a 3 bar map sensor and a 200 fuel rail sensor.. everything else I've pretty much replaced!

It has the stock Bosch MED9 ECU 👌

It is pal thanks 👍

Mint 👍

Thanks 🙌

It is a ported K04 housing, with an Anti Surge core and Forge Actuator.

Cheers 👌

Which tune...?

Cheers man. Yeah the k04 turbo is a stock turbo, but you rebuild it with this core and actuator decimaltenths.co.uk/product/157837/

@@DecimalTenths How much does a stock K04 Turbo cost do you have a link as I’ve got a K03 in my GTI I’m pretty sure it’s not an edition 30, but I’m looking to upgrade, cheers bro 🔥

Yes 2 bar far too much in my opinion. This is pushed to 1.8 bar peak. 80% duty at high rpm to keep the wg shut

@@DecimalTenths we run at 1,65 at boost gauge 478 nm 394 hp k04 by Turbo direct SA It Is Amazing

Cheers! Yeah 👍 👍

Hey! It's for the diverter valve which is mounted in a different place on a k04. Originally the car had a k03hybrid so the doverter was on the turbo. The k04 has it mounted on the boost pipe before the throttle body and the link pipe.

@@DecimalTenthslegend ty! Could not for the life of me figure it out haha. Cheers.

Haha I know, on the edge of what the BWA can take I think 🙈

Chances are you are experiencing compressor surge which is very common on k04 TFSI's. When I tune these I stay out of the surge zone as it can cause damage over time. You can either remap or install an Anti surge core which is the BEST mod to a k04 turbo

Far better to buy a conversion kit. Get in touch with Danny Hill at Wigan VAG spares. He generally has them on the shelf.

Yes 250 miles, lots of clutch action, no major stress

@@DecimalTenths Thanks!

Good shout 👍

Hi pal, We're busy building a new site so the current one isn't updated. For Mk5 GTI stg2+ tuning we charge £550

Not really it's a specific tapered bolt, with a very shallow head as the variator oil control feed slides inside so space limitations are strict. Easy to I stall, maintain and remove.

LOTS of practice dude. We're in Newcastle NE21 5SA 👍

@@DecimalTenths ahh man I wish you guys were closer I’m in London , do you offer online file tuning ?

Hi, You can find us on FB or Insta, or enquiries@decimaltenths.co.uk 👍👍

Hi there, All of the tuning I do is custom to the setup, so there is no off the shelf tune for that. I can help with it if needed. Give me a shout @ nick@decimaltenths.co.uk

@@DecimalTenths okay is that your email? I want to make sure i do need your help asap!!

You looking at the right bit? Block 093-3? If its that value at 091-2 then this normal.

@@DecimalTenths oh shit I'm looking at wrong part then haha, thanks for replying!

If all mods are good and it is stg2+ with a hpfp then typically 360-380bhp

All tuning is log and adjust so yes it is how I would do it 😁

@@DecimalTenths awesome thanks alot wish I could be as good as you one day I love your channel oneday

Yes it is! No mods, just some extra duty in the map. No grounding mod on this.

@@DecimalTenths which pwm controller revision? The one with metal base? I wonder if my blue rev C module can hold 80-90%.

Yes pal, A lot of the time it's the ABS ring which is corroded which is the problem. Part of the bearings so new bearings required as long as there's no wiring issues. All of them can be logged, and confirmed as faulty.

Not a good idea pal, this is custom tuned to the setup, so would need work to be optimal on another setup.

@@DecimalTenths understood I’ve run several BPY setups, I just wanted to get close to you’re setup on a base map then tweak from there. That’s by far the highest horsepower number I’ve ever seen an ea113 at! You know you’re stuff .

​@@Quattrogame_pro a lot of ppl are now installing anti surge cores on their K04 now, it's the new fad. Most are hitting 400 or damn near to it now days

Most probably something simple like the PCV valve which doesn't reset when moving to idle, but does when idling. Logging and testing will confirm though

@@DecimalTenths what exactly will I need to check the logs for and is there no chance of it being a gearbox issue , as it does change gears fine , the stalling also happens in manual mode, thank you soo much for the help

Not required at this level

@@DecimalTenths Could you explain?

You will find that your car is fast no doubt. But it won't be optimal to your setup. You may be missing torque, or bhp in areas that a custom tune can deliver on. I personally am not a fan of off the shelf files. There is generally a compromise that custom tuning can get around. My advise is that anything stg2 onwards should be custom to the setup

@@DecimalTenths OK I see your point, I'm happy to trade off some power for potential reliability and engine safety.. if that's even a benefit of an off the shelf tune?

Cheers, I use Winols to modify, Autotuner to Flash, VCDS to log and Dieselpower to view Logs 👍

@@DecimalTenths Bud will you please address the thrust washer issue and if the required modifications with a 360 degree washer is really necessary or when is it necessary

Although o the best setups, the anti surge core will do 400bhp. But most do 380bhp. The hybrid isn't a guaranteed route to 400bhp, but most do make over 400.

@@DecimalTenthsokay yeah fair… I’ve got a scirocco r stage 2+ so planning to hit around that 400 mark. Would you recommend lpfp ? Was looking at the rs3 one. Thanks

Hi pal, That's because our website is crap atm. We're working on it as we speak!! Give us a shout 0191 366 1430 Enquiries@decimaltenths.co.uk 👍

Plug in and read the codes, might just need the codes resetting before it will fire. After that it would be best to check everyrhijg has power, fuel pressure on low and high side.

@@DecimalTenths thank you. how would i check the fuel pressure and do you know where i can pick up a code reader

Nope... cheating gets you nowt...😜

@@DecimalTenths hahahah worth the try 😂

I use ridiculously expensive stuff to be fair...🙈🤣. Its cheap considering the use it gets and the revenue it generates

Nah no need for it.

You can. I wouldnt bother though. Use 5w-40 everytime.

@@DecimalTenths Thank you for your reply,so there is no damage with this way

Hi dude, Sound like your at stg2 kind of level. S3s will typically do 330-350bhp, with similar torque levels. If you want the best then get a vis hpfp and rs4 return and it should then be 360+bhp. Yes tuning after a carbon clean and injector test is ideal and it's how we do it.

@@DecimalTenths yes I'm assuming it's been remapped with the milltek tb etc stage 2 but no paperwork but uz will tell me what's been done when I come down just needty get it booked in and have a day out from sunny glasgow lol thanks

@@Shera_1977 Do it 👍👍

Most probably not. Although it can all be logged and diagnosed 👍

@@DecimalTenths or a wiring fault as my battery died the night before and my connection to cylinder 3 looks abit dodgy
