Always use jack stands! Never trust your life to just a jack. Happened to my dad, he almost died. Plenty of other less fortunate people’s stories available online.
I have since started to use them religiously thanks to the concern of you all! I am glad your dad didn't die, though!
I completley dig your entire vibe. You made the right choice to take a rest. Everything you learned in this video span will carry with you forever. No time was wasted, only spent. :)
If you have a PO or public email I will send you a gift card for jackstands.... I didn't use them for years. Then I got pinned under a 1978 Buick Lasabre. Dude..... Please man, use jackstands. It was the worst feeling not being able to yell for help because all the air was smooshed out of me.
Thank you so much for the kind words and I am glad you are liking the videos! This video is older and I have been using jack stands for a while because so many people said things. It must have been a very scary incident for sure. That being said, I appreciate the offer but already have stands! If you do feel so inclined, I do have a Patreon set up ( patreon.com/tplm ) but you don't have to do anything! The kind words and offer are enough!
i agree, and when i noticed his channel name, i had to subscribe lol im definitely a parking lot mechanic myself lol I didn't know it was a name for it. I'm literally doing these jobs in planet fitness parking lot ---I dont have a garage lol or a house for that matter
Super good vid I’m planning to watch all your vids soon when I purchase my MK6
Thanks so much! Keep me posted on your MK6! Love to hear of other builds!
Love the mk6 dawg, I got a mk5 Jetta 2.0tsi, don’t let the vw frustration get you down bro, most “little” mods end up taking an extra three days, but every extra hour is just more knowledge of your car and your own skills. Keep up the good work man!
Thanks! Every minute and hour is definitely more experience and knowledge even if it is a bit infuriating at times! Love a good Jetta too. My first car was 99.5 MK4 Jetta 2.slow.
Dope car man you parked by me Thursday at target grey focus ST
Heyyy! Thank you so much! I saw your ST and though “I have to park next to it” yours is pretty sweet too! Almost got one but went with the GTI instead.
Aw man would of been perfect time to swap the charge pipes out when doing this. Your car looks nice man! I have. 2013 GTi
I did actually change the charge pipes a couple of weeks later. Really was not that hard to get back in there and just do the pipe! And thanks! It's a fantastic little car!
Omg I wish I seen this video first lmao I had the same issue 6+ hrs
I’m glad I’m not the only one who got stuck! Glad the video could help!
Thanx for this vid mate. Not many around addressing Mk6 s. u saved me heaps of time because now I’m not gonna bother. My car is a DCT so don’t think it’ll make much difference. What do u think?
Can I install the turbo muffler delete pipe kit without changing anything else? And will it cause a check engine light if I do install it? Love your videos man they’re helping me build my GTi
Yes! The turbo muffler delete kit can be run without any issues or other pieces needed! No CEL too. And I’m happy to help with the build! Thank you for watching :)
My OEM turbo muffler stuck inside the turbo when I loosen the 3 bolts! How did you wiggle your oem muffler out the turbo? 😭 help please
It’s been so long since I did this that I can’t fully remember, but I believe there is a sensor/wiring? that is blocking the way that can be unbolted with a 5 mm Allen key. It takes some finagling still but with that out of the way it should come out. Someone correct me if I’m wrong
Do all MK6 GTI have a turbo muffler? My last mechanic didnt install this spulen turbo delete I had purchased for my car cause he said my gen 3 didnt have the proper alignment with the delete .
This is the first I am hearing of anything like this. I would assume all would have it to cut down on production costs and not making too many different parts. You could always dig in there yourself and check it out!

Is a tune required?
Nope! Install and go!
I tried to install this on my car but there was some kind of sensor right against it so i couldn’t put the rubber tube on what did you do with the sensor? If it was getting in your way.
Oh boy, I remember that sensor not so fondly. If I remember correctly there are two Allen bolts holding it in. 5mm, or something. It took me a lot of blind fiddling but I eventually got the sensor moved. The kit from ECS comes with a clip to keep that sensor out of the way on a nearby coolant line.
That ur n75 valve it is a pain in the butt!
@@dleej30 do you know if unscrewing it completely will mess anything up

Where the red flaps from
They’re Rokblokz brand and I got them off Amazon: www.amazon.com/dp/B078YFBY3D/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glt_fabc_VD2AYNP3F08VZV1ZY3FV?psc=1
Kinda was hoping to hear the sound at the end of the video :/
It really bugs me that after all that work and you didn't even replace outlet pipe.
If it makes you feel better, I replaced the pipe very shortly after this.
@The Parking Lot Mechanic oh, thank God. I was cringing this whole time until you said this.
I do the same thing put the tire under the car lol
Definitely gonna start using jack stands but the tire helps!
I do both, just incase because u never know🤷🏻♂️
How much can you hear the turbo now? I hate not being able to hear the turbo but don't want to drop 2 grand on a k04 kit
It’s noticeable but I wouldn’t say drastic. Pair it with a turbo outlet pipe and then it’s better. ARM has one for about half the price of anywhere else. I have it on mine and it’s great.
After combining turbo muffler delete and an outlet pipe, will i finally hear the desired turbo flutter?
Gotta invest in some jack stands brother. the GTI sits too low, that wheel wont save ya life if something goes wrong.
Thank yo for the concern! This video is actually a few years old now and I use jack stands any time the car is up now. But I do appreciate the concern!
really?
Very poor safety hygiene bro.
Ensuring safety should be a top priority when making videos for your UA-cam audience. It's concerning to see that you are using only a hydraulic floor jack to lift a car, without taking adequate safety measures into consideration. It's important to avoid putting yourself in a potentially life-threatening situation by relying on a tire to hold the car up in case the jack fails. Therefore, I strongly urge you to prioritize safety and make sure you are using the appropriate equipment and taking all necessary precautions to protect yourself and your viewers.
Thank you so much for the concern! This video is edging on two years old now and I’m happy to report that I have started to make sure the car is properly supported anytime it goes up now; jack stands are a must and I’ll even slot the tire under there if one comes off. Thank you so much for looking out for me, I really do appreciate it!
@@bobduker I got no aggression from that! So don’t worry about that :) thank you again!
