Ever since I have been driving the #vw #golfr mk8 which we rebuilt on the channel I have been a bit underwhelmed. Although the car handled and stopped brilliantly it definitely lacked some drama and sound from the engine and exhaust. In this video we are going to fix that by fitting an exhaust made by @RPMPerformances and also then upgrading the eco tune courtesy of @volkswagenracinguk which will undoubtably transform the driving characteristics of the MK8 Golf R.

The exhaust sound way better than the stock one.
well done on building this car, can not wait to see more modifications on this Golf R.
Respect all the way from Dubai. 🤙
What a weapon that is now!
Nice to see you always put your personality into the cars. Started watching a few months ago and loving it so far! Keep up the good work.
Just used the discount code for RPM and bought a GPF delete for my i20N. Bring on the noise 😁
You've done a great job with this! Looks, and it sounds awesome. RPM are great at what they do.
You just gotta love the GOLF❤. ALL THE WAY FROM SOUTH AFRICA 🇿🇦
I like to wear my seat belt on the dyno to, I'm actually watching this in my livingroom holding a umbrella, good video chris enjoyed it mate 😊
😂 was to stop the dinging which i fixed earlier in the video
Lovely car Chris! Hats off to you and what you've done to make it epic! 👍👏
Great job again Chris..looking forward to the next project already. That exhaust really is sick BTW 👍🏻
Good to see your subs are going up. Really enjoying your channel.
I got Raclingline's Stage 1 tune on my 245 Tiguan Allspace (basically the Gti engine) as part of their Beta testing back in November.
It now chucks out 339PS and 500Nm and using a rather shonky Android App timed 0-60 in 4.67 & 1/4 mile in a smidge over 13.
Chris and the team in Milton Keynes are proper gents, can't wait to get my suspension lowered next and a chance to get the latest tune which see it good for 350PS
This has to be my current dream car, I drive a scirocco 2.0tsi at the moment and seeing you build this car to what it can be is very inspiring that I can hopefully own one of these someday!
Im sure you will and you will love it! 😊
Man everytime I see those calipers I drop my jaw, what absolute units they are my guy
When you floored it, it sounded awesome mate 👌
Great job Chris ❤ you are killing it bro 😎 love the content keep it up.🎉🎉🎉
Was great to be apart of build! Hopefully now it’s an event driving it 😁
South Africa's golden car.... Vrrrphaaa🇿🇦🔥
Brought my res delete for my m135i from these guys, went straight in and works a treat! Great content!
Where did you bring it too?
@@pb3382 brought it off eBay and fitted myself
I really love this car, and this serie. You made this car so NICE! your taste is just so delicious. Keep going with lovely videos and series from your cars.
Sounds bloody awesome, my dream car wish I could buy it from you.
Loved it man
Love from India 🇮🇳
South Africa loves VW Golf R
U got new sub. All cheers from Bahrain 🇧🇭
Brakes and Suspension first, great advice from Safety Slix. Great build Chris
Love it bro the sound is amazing..... just need some advice going about doing a project car
Cracking job Chris 👍
The tune file is ready! South Africa let’s go🎉🎉
Quality as ever.👌
I replaced the entire exhaust on my 2020 FK8 and was amazed how (relatively) simple at was.
Sounds so good. 😮
But try to do the exhaust install here in Denmark, the police will confiscate the car, because of a new downpipe and no filter😢
Top video fella good numbers stock turbo
Excellent stuff buddy 👍👍👍👍
Ugh! I wish we had the option for those seats in the US - that and the R wagon. So jealous!
Ben’s a legend!!! 🤘 I just want my tcu tunable!!! 😢
Got to love awesomes generous Dyno 😂
You could make a thousand enhancements to the car, some of them perhaps insignificant in their performance gains. Yet, as the owner, deep down you know that the ultimate change lies in swapping the engine for an Audi 5-cylinder TFSI. We all put up a tough front, but in the end, we all give in.
Smooth. Perfectly balanced?
3.45s 0-60 with 1 ft rollout on a -2.23% slope is damn impressive. :)
Chris this is looking like a sarious beast brother!👊🦾🦾🦾🇿🇦
🇿🇦 ❤️
Love your content Chris! 🇿🇦
Dang man was really hoping to give us a 1/4 mile run. We here in USA would love to see that. Regardless great video
In Europe, we go round corners.
Bettered you time by 14%. That pretty good for a drivable tune I would think.
Awesome car mate I’m definitely going to enter to win it , great work 👍
Do you make all your videos in Norwich because I was actually very shocked that a youtuber like you knew about Norwich and I've just been looking for a place in Norwich to upgrade my new cars exhaust at and I think I found the perfect place thanks to you and this is also just down the road for me. Thanks!
Love the mk8 r, i know many hate it but for me i love it and yes I have driven one before. Sick build this, have you seen TR hamza mk8 r ? His set upis sick🔥🔥🔥
Awesome video
That's More Like It! 😎
Bold statement 🥴 I like it
Handmade to last 👌🏻
Warrington my home town :D
❤I Loved this video.
Love this golf r
Love video bro
Sick Mat, literally amazing. Merry Christmas ya filthy animal.
Absolute weapon that
Did You manage to improve Your 0-60 time? How is the racingline tune? Everything works good?
Thats over 100hp more amazing. How does the stock Fuel pump, oil cooler, water pump receive the new power ? Transmission tunning ? New injectors ?
This car has been perfected by chris
South Africa stand up 🇿🇦 they’ve modified our favourite car 😂
Raffle this beast Chris 👍👍👍👍🥊🥊🥊👏👏👏👏🇺🇸🇬🇧🇺🇸🇬🇧🇺🇸
Especially those torx screws 😣 you barely can grab it especially when they’re rusted ,,, good example,, this car is not too old enough and they were struggling to take them off , other than that it’s a very nice car !! Enjoy it !
love the golf fella so how much money all in on the car now . ?
how much would getting all this done cost minus parts? Im getting my golf in about 6 months, want to know roughly what these professionals charge /hr. High quality work
I love the blue seatbelts in your Golf R! Where did you get them!
I the the last thing you can do is a upgraded intercooler, then youd have to look for hybrid turbos OR IS38 hybrids
We need the OBD scanner in South Africa 🇿🇦
Would love a diesel build at some point 👀
One thing I hate is excessively loud exhausts just no need for it make a track car if that’s what you need and have a normal car for the road simple
I hate to be that guy again because I love your videos…. But I’m really excited for a new project 😂
There will be something soon! Its inevitable 😅
@@Chris_SlixProbably something blue as well 😂
use KROIL penetrating oil, it's better than most...WD40 is not penetrating oil
New sub!
8:50 You're off by a second for the quarter mile. They're roughly 12.5. That mistake aside, cool video.
Thats awesome 👌 where is the rear diffuser from, who sells it?
You turned around near my house!
Good work Chris - I like your approach
Like Mat Armstrong off wish. Love the vids...
I recently had the Racingline Stage 1 (low torque version) added to my MK8 R, however the turbo turbine blades cracked and destroyed the turbo. Car is only 2 months old from new. Sad times. Luckily Racingline paid for the replacement (as VW wouldn't cover it under warranty due to the tune) and installation. Not sure if it were a faulty part from factory, or it was the tune. Really hesitant to get remapped again.
Damn dude. What happened what’s the update ??
@@GLA45Amg716 Yea sucked. Not much of an update other than the turbo being replaced. Car is back to normal and I'm running it as stock now.
Lovin' the mk8 build.....did u say its not a keeper?? What are you gonna do with it? Sale, raffle, give it to me??
Can you confirm what build date your car is for the TCU? Thanks. 🙏
Hey Chris can you Make a Video on your Grear box Shifter delete.
Very nice exhauste, no sport cat? No mot
All love from🇱🇨
Get some Würth Boltex for the rusty bolts its awesome or a induction bolt heater
Workshops that use WD40 to loosen rusty screws, a true sign of "expertise".
Awesome results. But you really need to install a (sports-)cat to keep it at least somewhat legal....
I swapped my 600cell cat for a sports cat (200cell) on my M140i, and it passed the first MOT, just about scraped through the 2nd, and failed misersably on the 3rd and 4th.
They don't last long !!
i wonder how fast my golf r estate 7.5 would go with those bits ermmmmm lol its stock and staying that way lol.
Can u tell how much did that exhaust+breaks+suspensions+tuning cost ?
go all the way with a HPFP !
This popped up in my feed im not a vw guy by any means but i own some serious AMG benzs and a f430 so im partial to the 8 cyl cruise missles but 450 rwhp on this little car is insane i had a friend who was my car meet partner and he had a 2003 golf with 438rwhp and it would
Be on the ASS of my H/C\I new z06 back in 13 i couldn’t believe how fast that fucking car was
How shit does your car need to be to keep the OBD scanner on your key ring 😂
Love the videos 👏🏻
😂
WD40 as release spray? That would be enough for me to walk away.
😂😂😂
😂
What would you recommend for a spray?
Yep, nobody should spray WD40 on anything.
@@scott2495LD40
Has a bit of a drone but sounds good
Get that front number plate straight!
9:08 for launc control
Just with downpipe and exhaust it’s makes that much power
What's your opinion on awesome gti 5 months after having the tune? Some people say to avoid this place....
add a vibrant resonator.
Why the Canadian cap? I'm from Canada actually!
Why an intake isn’t carbon))
Mate Im considering in removing my cat from my scirocco r but dont want to deal with reinstalling it back on everytime its time for mot lol
Take a nice latte for the mot tester 😂
quality built exhaust but what about when an mot is required
How to disable the lamp probe warning light? with OBDEleven?
