@@gerardocampos3875 This is about the right power for the setup. Upgraded intake manifold and some porting on the head will net about another 50-60whp, but it would definitely need 1300’s for that.
More EA888 content, please. Pulling the head to check the gasket may seem like overkill, but I admire the dedication to the craft. This guy's been a good customer and you're going above and beyond for him. Love to see it!
Nice results. I daily drive a 620whp Golf R in Alberta. Year round and it's made 2 trips to Vancouver in December as well through the Rocky Mountains. It's crazy that you can daily drive a 10 second car year round in Canada. And it's been reliable. 2 water pumps and 2 oil control valves is all that's been done to it for mechanical failures.
Curious as to how many miles you've put on it since it's been running that HP? Hesitant to bite the bullet and go big turbo on mine as it's my daily as well.
@@DailyShorts5966 I bought my car new. It was stage 1 tuned in the first week of ownership. Stage 2 with a downpipe in a few months after that. It’s been over 500whp for at least 4-5 years.
Basically have this same exact setup with the EQT DW1500cc MPI injectors. Waiting for Matt at EQT for my tuning appointment…hoping I can avoid the coolant hose popping off lol…but very encouraging to see what this build can do. Awesome vid!!

Another great video. Love how thorough you guys are. You didn’t have to pull the motor but did it because you guys actually care. And there was nothing even wrong with it and you still didn’t care. That’s awesome. Don’t have to many shops like that here in the states lol everything is a hustle. Im sure there are some awesome Vw mechanic/tuner out here but I’ve yet to if found them lmao. Awesome video tho guys. Hope to bring one of my vw’s up there to get tuned 🤞🤞
It breaks 300 hp at ~4100 rpm. For a race car the spool is fine but driving around town the turbo would never spool in normal circumstances. That's the problem with big turbo small motor lol. Even my is38 feels laggy at 6000+ elevation where i live. Have to drive in sport mode to get anything out of the turbo light to light. But the is38 is also heavily limited at this elevation, cant work it too hard due to wheel speed and pressure ratio. Im pretty set on a 3071R, i think its a good balance between output and spool. Vortex standard probably spools quicker but is limited to ~370 wheel uncorrected on 91 which is still a bit soft.
It's the nature of turbochargers and small engines. You want big power, there is a sacrifice to be made. You want 1500rpm spool, and no power... buy a TDI.
I had this turbo on my Audi TTS, full forged engine with 95oct and WMI. I was pushing 2.8bar(40-41psi) and it lasted 2 weeks. My 100-200kph time was 6.1secs. I assume around 600hp bc now I'm on a different turbo setup pushing 575hp on the dyno with the same boost resulting 100-200kph time of 6.5sec. Based on my observation Typhoon looks like a garrett 3076 core with custom housings and hybridised? turbine. I dont get how people manage to be so happy with the product. I also managed to destroy the vortex xl with the same setup after 4-5 months at 34-35psi. Dyno result was 508hp 612tq with vortex xl
That’s a very unusual result… these turbos have proven to withstand a ton of abuse at 40-45psi. But as with anything, you have to make sure the rest of the setup and the tune are done properly. For reference, the Typhoon uses a G30 turbine wheel with a custom compressor designed specifically to be efficient at these boost levels while keeping the shaft speeds reasonable. The fact you were only doing a 6.1 100-200 at over 40psi signals an issue with your setup or tune. You either had a major restriction or were pushing things too hard for your octane levels. Both of these variables can quickly over stress any turbo.
kinda slow eh? My best dragy on a 34-36psi psi Audi TT with a stock engine never been opened has been 6.4s 100-200 E50 fuel, my 6.8s 100-200 is on my youtube channel which is 32psi and only E30 12* timing. It's a GTX3076, another friend did a 5.8s 100-200 with the same turbo and TTS which is on Dragy with 36psi and all the timing.
I know its a long shot but have you guys even had the GTI/R have issues around 3k rpm? Have a 2016 GTI that was stage 2 Unitronic and the EPC light came on but no check engine light, once I got the chance to scan it with an OBD11 it was showing a cylinder 3 pressure too high and a hide cylinder also an evap code for incorrect purge flow. I have checked the gap on my NGK plugs, swapped coil packs for new Eldor packs, for a bit it cleared up but when I go hard on it there is a power cut around 3k rpm, had a buddy drive it and the Epc light came back on. I will be replacing the injectors soon; from what I’ve found that could be my issue. Anyways I appreciate it! (Epc light came on first after a valve cover reseal and an upper timing cover replacement, the guy had crossed the brass fitting to the HPFP and the fuel rail line even after replacing the HPFP have been having those issues intermittently, went from uni stage 2 ecu/tcu with the overrun file back down to stock, low to medium load the cars fine but go hard it sputters a bit then the Epc light comes on)
@@COMotorsports is the OBDeleven no good for scan/diagnostics? I have a OBD2 scan tool but it doesn’t show most of that info. The EVAP code is P044100, the cylinder 3 pressure too high is P03AF00, and the hide cylinder is P130A00. I can also email the full scan and see what you guys can find in that if that is okay. If the OBDeleven isn’t good enough what would you recommend instead?
Don't! 😂 I spoke with some guys from Europe who already did some tuning on mk8 r, and they told me the engine in mk8 r is similar, but it's stronger and it can handle even more power. Put your money in that engine instead of buying an mk7.
As a purely personal interest. I’m in Australia. I have a 2016 Golf Alltrack and yes I know they have been done to death elsewhere. My car has an IS38 with a Golf R downpipe and full Golf R wagon exhaust. Other than an inlet elbow and a K&N panel filter it just has a tune from an Australian crowd called Underground Performance based in Melbourne. It hasn’t been on a dyno. It feels reasonably quick but am I expecting too much for it to be as good as a standard Golf R wagon? Also do you think I would get a noticeable bump by upgrading the intercooler and getting a tune on a dyno? I live in Queensland which generally is hotter than Victoria. Final question. Would I gain much by going to a larger downpipe? Maybe you don’t have to address my specific issues but perhaps a general discussion on this platform would interest others. I’ve been following you guys for years and I recall the first video that I watched was the one where you upgraded the turbo on a Mk7 Golf 1.8t.
When you do pistons and rods upgrade, do you absolutely need a machine shop job? Honing cylinder walls, decking the block and head etc etc? Want to upgrade my mk6 R and trying to estimate a budget. Thanks and love your videos man !!
That's some seriously impressive numbers! I can't believe you took the engine out and did all that for a coolant hose that came popped off. I could understand if you saw oil in the coolant or something. Impressive end results though! And, was this R converted to FWD or something?
Just amazing! I so love your videos. Your skills and level of detail is to be commended. Definitely one of the best mechanical and tuning shops out there in my humble opinion. Do you guys ever work with Hyundai i30N platforms? Be great to see if so. Well done CO Motorsport team!
@COMotorsports so no muffler? Looking at limits of the stock cat whether I should replace prior to tuning s3. Im the exact oem look as this but tornado red. I've heard the stock cat back has restrictions around 300wkw.
how is this possible without being unreliable. that much hp on a relatively small engine. how much would this even cost. I want to do the same on my car lol
I have a question: Did I notice on this specific Golf R, in a previous video, that you guys installed the Clutch Masters hydraulic tob/slave? If so, do you think this is a worthy piece of equipment to install over the OEM style tob/slave? I’m asking because I will be building the motor in my MK7 GTI 6spd in the future to make more power, and I’ve been through 5 aftermarket clutches on my car (I am IS38 WMI). 4 had to be replaced from premature tob/slave failures (all using SMF). So now I’m running a Sachs Performance clutch kit w/DMF, which I’m hoping lasts a lot longer as this car is my daily. I have wondered if I should get the Clutch Masters hydraulic tob/slave, but nobody has written anything or made any videos regarding it. I’m wondering if it will be a part that will be reliable for many miles. I’m hesitant to go back to a SMF setup because of the weak design of the OEM tob/slave.
@@eduanwessels4292 that's for the owner to enjoy. However with that said I initially planned for a more in-depth video of this car but the fact I pulled it all apart again meant the video content was the least of my concerns.
@COMotorsports I understand, but it would be nice if the owner could make a video an you can add it to the video. Just on that well done for doing what you did pulling the engine, it just shows that you are willing to go the extra mile. If you guys were on SA, I would take my polo 9n3 gti to you for a full build.
@@eduanwessels4292 would have been nice for a lot other reasons as well I get it. But if you understand then you'd appreciate there was any content at all on this one. Unfortunately I had bigger priorities on this one. I'm sure it will be back at some point for something and maybe we can do a better job on the content.
Can you guys please develop either a supercharger or turbocharger kit for the newer VR6. That newer direct injection VR6 in the newer Passat and atlases.
@comotorsports what's the deal with the EA888.3 in longitudinally mounted vehicles like the A4 Quattro? Can these do silly power too? Or are they limited by the running gear?
Is E85 starting to be more available in your area? I hope so, it is the nectar of the gods. I'd love to see some dual clutch AWD 4-banger V.A.G. content. The insane, streetable acceleration of those suckers is so interesting. I'd love to see sort of a budget build like that with Draggy numbers.
If you're talking about coolant pressure... I did exactly that and connected to dyno. So I had coolant pressure data on ever run once I got it back together. I just forgot to cover it in the video.
@@kennethl2423 theres at least one on here. We have them in every week but typically most TDI owners are chassing a bit more power and better fuel economy. Not going all out for power which is what we like to do most. TDI isn't really the answer for someone wanting big power.
@@COMotorsports will anything differ from the setups you guys use with the O2Q/O2M jobs? I’m thinking because of the different engine maybe it sits at a different spot in the bay so maybe prop shafts have to be different lengths?? Anything of that sort?
I personally love MQB content. So I have a stage 3 gt2260s build and am trying to push out as much power as I can on pump gas (I dont have easy access to ethanol). As for the fuel system my only mod is a HPFP. With pump gas is it important to do a LPFP as well? Any info on that subject helps. Thanks.
Do you have any concerns about the health and longevity of the stock transmission at this power level? Any idea what the safe limit is for the 6MT that comes in the Mk7 R?
@@dbandler1 yes and will depend on what the vehicle is used for and how hard it's driven. For example drag racing it is going to be a lot harder on it then street driving.
Mine is a stock motor car with the power max g25 660, UM tuned/flex fuel, MPI. Just a street car that doesn’t get launch. Have played around with the idea of building the motor but felt like the trans might not be able to handle much more. Sounds like you’re confident with these power levels if the car isn’t abused?
Why? There’s no need. This EA888.3 4cyl motor just made almost 700whp. To buy and swap the 5cyl into this would be very expensive and also wouldn’t bet that much more power.
@@ziljendrumming2011 maybe someone but none of our customers. Just doesn't make sense, There's not a lot aftermarket support for hardware, especially when it comes to tuning.
@@rogerj412 yeah we have them in every week however. However trying to make power with them is silly and most folks who own them realize that and are just chasing a bit more power and better fuel economy.
Calling a golf R a sleeper is hilarious. 90% of the golf R's on the road are modified to sole degree or another and everyone knows they're quick anyway. A sleeper is a car that doesn't look fast, is pretty much stock except the engine but goes like a stuck pig.
@@DriftedDreams i completely disagree. You think a Lambo, McLaren owner is going to look twice at this car.... No they're not. Yes the 7r are quick cars but they're not anywhere near the lever that this car is, and what it could take down. So yes it 100% is a sleeper. A 350whp 7rs not even remotely on the same playing field as a 650whp one.
More mk6r or 2.0 tfsi stuff. Engine build tech videos. Videos of dumb shit people have done to their cars that dont work. Power goals and what parts are and aren't needed.
Things I forgot to mention in the video. It has 980cc MPI kit. Boost was at 40-41psi on the ethanol runs.
Really on 980’s? I’m surprised it managed 650whp on those.
Will upgrading the MPI injectors to like 1300cc give even more power? or is it limited by the pump?
@@gerardocampos3875 This is about the right power for the setup. Upgraded intake manifold and some porting on the head will net about another 50-60whp, but it would definitely need 1300’s for that.

@comotorsports what's the deal with the EA888.3 in longitudinally mounted vehicles like the A4 Quattro? Can these do silly power too? Or are they limited by the running gear?
Haven't done one, but typically the newer Audi drivetrain is pretty tough.
Is E85 starting to be more available in your area? I hope so, it is the nectar of the gods.
I'd love to see some dual clutch AWD 4-banger V.A.G. content. The insane, streetable acceleration of those suckers is so interesting. I'd love to see sort of a budget build like that with Draggy numbers.
@@tptrsn we have to get it in barrels. Not available at the pumps.
@@COMotorsports DAMN!!
I need this in my blown mk7 golf R 😂
put a map sensor and log it next time
If you're talking about coolant pressure... I did exactly that and connected to dyno. So I had coolant pressure data on ever run once I got it back together. I just forgot to cover it in the video.
Have you guys ever done any TDI content?? I haven’t been able to find any on your channel
@@kennethl2423 theres at least one on here. We have them in every week but typically most TDI owners are chassing a bit more power and better fuel economy. Not going all out for power which is what we like to do most. TDI isn't really the answer for someone wanting big power.
@@COMotorsports okay, i’ll have to find that video. I’m interested, you guys do good work!
I want to eventually make my cjaa tdi 6spd AWD
@@kennethl2423 AWD no problem.
@@COMotorsports will anything differ from the setups you guys use with the O2Q/O2M jobs? I’m thinking because of the different engine maybe it sits at a different spot in the bay so maybe prop shafts have to be different lengths?? Anything of that sort?
@@kennethl2423 no
Was the haldex upgraded on this? I'm curious how much that can handle, in addition to the bevel box and rear diff.
It will all come down to how the owner drives it. Hard launches at the drag strip will be a lot harder on it.
I personally love MQB content. So I have a stage 3 gt2260s build and am trying to push out as much power as I can on pump gas (I dont have easy access to ethanol). As for the fuel system my only mod is a HPFP. With pump gas is it important to do a LPFP as well? Any info on that subject helps. Thanks.
@@gabeallen1212 if you're sticking with pump gas only and trying to maximize power then do a water/meth kit.
@@COMotorsports i will look into this, thanks!
Do you have any concerns about the health and longevity of the stock transmission at this power level? Any idea what the safe limit is for the 6MT that comes in the Mk7 R?
@@dbandler1 yes and will depend on what the vehicle is used for and how hard it's driven. For example drag racing it is going to be a lot harder on it then street driving.
Mine is a stock motor car with the power max g25 660, UM tuned/flex fuel, MPI. Just a street car that doesn’t get launch. Have played around with the idea of building the motor but felt like the trans might not be able to handle much more. Sounds like you’re confident with these power levels if the car isn’t abused?
@@dbandler1 you asked "do you have concerns about the health and longevity of the stock transmission"....and I replied "yes".
Lol thanks brother
Add EQT CGK and OEM coils please!
There were no signs of ignition issues here.

Now, let's see what this car does in the way of actual performance! 1/8 & 1/4 miles times? 60-130 times?
We'll leave that for the owner.
have you guys ever used a CTS JB640-RS?
No, but I have one here on the shelf for a customer.

How much boost before you need to replace those intake manifold
Once it breaks. lol
Mk8 !!
Any concerns with the plastic intake at the boost levels it’s pushing?
@@jerryel1nico not yet. :)
5 cylinder!!
Why? There’s no need. This EA888.3 4cyl motor just made almost 700whp. To buy and swap the 5cyl into this would be very expensive and also wouldn’t bet that much more power.
@@JacesOwnWorld You've heard a 5 cylinder on boost, right?
when are we going to see a mk8 r ?
@@mroldsoul11 when more come through the door. People still hiding them due to warranty.
@@COMotorsports that is a fair point. i hate dislike the shifter in mine and wandering if u had suggestion to upgrade it?
Sticky g13 floors = more traction 🤔
Coolant is the nemesis around here.
What is going on here 🤩
How is the DQ250 holding up with nearly 500ftlb?
It's a manual
@ it can still strip teeth
@@CupraRoss of course. I'm just letting you know this is not dsg. Dsg will typically live longer simply due to no manual intervention.
Is anyone trying to build the 1.4t tsi jetta engine?
@@ziljendrumming2011 maybe someone but none of our customers. Just doesn't make sense, There's not a lot aftermarket support for hardware, especially when it comes to tuning.
2.5 turbo
We all want to see Daves orange Rabbit!
Me too
I'd love to see more diesel stuff but I know that's not likely.
@@rogerj412 yeah we have them in every week however. However trying to make power with them is silly and most folks who own them realize that and are just chasing a bit more power and better fuel economy.
Reflect has a trans tune for the is38 mk7 golf 1.8t auto now
Mk4 Diesels you already know 😂 shops too clean tho haha
We're here to make power. 😉

Calling a golf R a sleeper is hilarious. 90% of the golf R's on the road are modified to sole degree or another and everyone knows they're quick anyway. A sleeper is a car that doesn't look fast, is pretty much stock except the engine but goes like a stuck pig.
@@DriftedDreams i completely disagree. You think a Lambo, McLaren owner is going to look twice at this car.... No they're not. Yes the 7r are quick cars but they're not anywhere near the lever that this car is, and what it could take down. So yes it 100% is a sleeper. A 350whp 7rs not even remotely on the same playing field as a 650whp one.
More mk6r or 2.0 tfsi stuff. Engine build tech videos. Videos of dumb shit people have done to their cars that dont work. Power goals and what parts are and aren't needed.
