#golfgti #vs #stage3 Here we have our stage 3 package for the Golf GTI Mk7. If you need more information about this package, please visit our website. www.motorsport...
I like this build. People wondering about the stock exhaust but the real restriction on these cars is the DP with 2 cats. Stock exhaust is fine even at these power levels. Skip the boy racer noise and keep it sleeper.
my feed is full of gtis... algo trying to brainwash me into buying the car lol :DD i see common pattern to be.. tuning the car to up to 300-350hp and i never see anyone restoring the block itself or cylinders , rods , bearings my question is how much abuse and beating do stock can handle?
@@Microphunktv-jb3kj Gen 3+ ea888 motors can reliably make 400-450 on stock internals, no issue. But fueling, the stock turbo, clutch & trans become weak links once you get past a basic stage 2 setup. 300-350 is common because it's cheap & easy to attain with basic bolt on's an a tune and you can still maintain decent fwd drivability (400+hp in a fwd = spinning ain't winning)
@@OrjonZvery true, didn’t pay that much attention. Somewhat misleading to not give peak stock figures and compare those to peak modified figures though
177 tq at 6500rpm. The turbo flow drops off a lot at peak rpm for is20. The. They showed peak torque at 3000rpm for the is38. A. It inconsistent. For racing torque at 4000-6500rpm matters more than 3000 as you only see 3000rpm on first gear
No idea why but the quoted 177lbs,ft was the figure it was producing at max power & not the peak torque figure as standard. The standard output for an early mk7 is ~215hp/250lbs.ft A pity the vid didn’t quote like for like!
Most tuners say to keep it below 400whp/440wtq for a daily driver on pump gas. With E85 you can push closer to 450hp/475tq. There are people pushing higher numbers on the stock engine but thats a rough guideline
Hi, nice video. What TTE turbo do you recommend if going from is38 (Clubsport), aim around 420-450HP? What other parts must be replaced as well? It´s 6 speed manual.

That's cool project. I have a gti mk6 with 500 hp .bulit and bule printed engine. With 4340 rods and JE pistons flow the head from AFR and air /water cooler and custom intake manifold and a 101 ball bearing turbo.she is fast beast
Do you have a comparison torque and power graph of both hybrid IS20 and IS38? I wonder if targeting the same ~450bhp would be nicer to drive with a lower boost pressure on the IS38 hybrid? Let's face it, these cars struggle for traction off the line so low torque isn't gonna be helping you there
Looks like it was actually make 394lb ft back at 4500 RPM, but that dropped off to 351 at 6350rpm. So it would seem they focused on top end performance vs midrange.
It all depends on how you drive it. If you're foot on the floor every chance you get you'll undoubtedly have a shorter service life. If you're only occasionally stomping your foot to the floor you'll enjoy a longer life.
@Brandon S nah the motors are essentially the same as a golf r... going to this level is only stage 2 golf r but its more potent due to it being lighter
bro pls.. pre-lube the turbocharger prior to first start up !! 😖 add clean engine oil to the oil inlet of the turbo while turning the shaft by hand until oil comes out of the drain...
Awesome, love the choice of speakers. Looking forward to the next episode. P.s. would love to see you guys do a sound install for a Vw kombi........just saying it should happen in the near future
@@arronlowley5659Maybe the customer still wanted to keep that sort of stock spool but with the advantage of being hybrid which means way more power on the higher revs without the turbo choking up there
I didn't see a series 3 revision or aftermarket turbo inlet pipe? Unless the ramair induction kit comes with the inlet pipe in the kit? 🤙 The inlet pipe makes a huge difference to these cars due to the factory one being very bulky/restrictive internally
Doesn't really matter on these engine's if they've been taken care off. These 2.0's have a few flaws but once you go S3 you'll have everything sucky about them done and renewed anyway. My MK7 GTI had a stage 3 conversion done at 175000 KMs, and it's now at 215000 without any leaks/issues. Should really let this be done by people who work on VW's all the time. I'm a certified VW mechanic myself so I did all the part conversions myself, had it dyno'd and tuned and it's been mad ever since. Big tip, don't go for a mad crackle map, it'll drive you insane after 500km (speaking from experience lol)
Oh and just buy parts that are tested/fitted like RAM air intakes, the turbo elbow etc. Don't fabricate too much yourself as parts are easily available and very good quality.
I still think it's bonkers VW didn't give the MK7 GTI's slotted brakes or even the R style brakes. The MK8 GTI front brakes are a MASSIVE improvement imo.
@@bravosava I was just surprised that with the scale of the engine upgrades they didn't fit the PP brakes - VW original etc - instead of just changing disks and pads.
@@TIM612826£4k-£5k+ if it's a manual it's another £2k for a clutch Much easier & cheaper to go stage 2 on a golf r Stage 3 front wheel drive is close to undriveable My golf r is stage 2 & wheelspins in 3rd🤦
Yes. Clutch kit, as well as clutch components (short shift kit, weighted shift knob, etc.). Sachs is best kit for DMF. SMF, I recommend XClutch Stage 2, ACT Stage 3, or ECS Stage 4.
It's absolutely a FMIC. It mounts in front of the engine. Unlike some older GTIs that are mounted on the side. Or a Subaru that mounts on the top of the engine (TMIC). The F (front) in FMIC is its location relative to the engine.
if its 420 there is a reason for that - MAPS 420 will be absolutely tuned to perfection and better than some other claim of 450 that wont be anything near as good as their 420 - not all numbers mean more power - quality over quantity lad
