    Good content guys - thank you. I am always interested in the actual difference that upgraded components make. Much better than "it should produce more power, or it will handle better". The quantitative comparisons will be good to see.

    We need these remaps mate - when will they be ready? Will u be able to add drift mode?

    • @RegalAutosport
      @RegalAutosport  2 роки тому +1

      No idea, once someone will be able to tune them everyone will. Drift mode I'd imagine is a coding thing, I haven't looked into it myself.

    one day must do a comparison of the Continental turbo vs the IS38, and whether the MK8 can accept hybrid IS38 turbos, albeit with some modifications.

    • @RegalAutosport
      @RegalAutosport  2 роки тому

      That would be interesting! We haven't looked at that at all as of yet.

    Are you installing or installed a front roll center camber correction kit since you installed the Racingline lowering springs? Or is a roll center kit not needed since the ride height is only lowered 20mm to 25mm?

    • @RegalAutosport
      @RegalAutosport  2 роки тому

      We do not intend to do that, perhaps later along down the line we will fit the Verkline subframe which has adjustable roll centre with the arms.

      So we can test out the R600 to give a proper opinion to customers :)

    Just picked mine up a week ago. Kind of screw to do anything because of the warranty.

      Hey Mike! Congrats! Have a chat with your warranty provider and see what they say about some of the mods you would like to do. You might be surprised with their answer!

    Spending 40k on a new Golf R then another 15k on upgrading the car sounds a bit expensive to me, might as well buy a more powerful sporty car... Porsche for a start.

      You think thats bad, right now in South Africa dealers have lost their minds charging the equivalent of £50 000 for a Golf 8 GTI!🙄
