Good to see you're still alive lol.
I know you're active on IG a lot more. But I've been waiting for a cool update video. Looking forward to seeing it completed.
cant wait for the final thing man. keep up the good work bro
Anticipating to see the finished product sir.
💪🏽 can’t wait to try it
Very nice bro 👍 💯
Nice vie bro!
put the atw intercooler in the front it will flow better
No dq500 swap? Might as well at that power level? I’m on vortex xl stock motor I went ahead and did the dq500 since my dq381 front diff failed and ruin the clutch pack, starter, and trans
I just got my R back it made 687whp on a stock clutch dsg car. currently I ordered the Deca stage 3. Do you recommend going with the Dodson instead?
I’ve had nothing but problems with Deka, he says failure to install correctly, but I have pictures of things broken out of the box.
Are you sure adding an icebox A2W is the way? Because albiet a really big FMIC is heavy, but the weight distribution of adding a massive water tank in the rear wouldn’t necessarily be lighter overall. Especially if it’s like a 2-3gallon tank lol. For the aspect of cooling consistency yeah, it works better in certain aspects but I don’t see A2W as simpler rather than just using less space.
Also if you got the kahunas, you can cutout the front bumper or get one to butcher and make aero ducting for the FMIC, helps a lot for me
the weight of the new cooling setup would be a small sacrifice in comparison to its performance gain. These cars benefit a LOT from good airflow & cooling; the gains for power would overcome whatever weight the new cooling is even if it's something like +80lbs. I'm curious to see how the pressure drop will behave with his newer A2W setup.
Jet explained it well, the IAT gain alone would be worth the total 30lb gain from adding everything. 3 gallons is only about 18lb, having a cooler for ice etc is probably another 10lb on top of the 30lb. The current IAT vs what it could be as of the data right now suggests as much as a 80whp gain. That alone is a very bang for buck mod over an A2A setup. Also much more consistant which is what I’m all about with this car.
@@SportyMk7yeah can’t blame you. I did some logs on my stock turbo GTI and I was losing 60+ tq in hot vs cold weather
@@SportyMk7I’d also say try out hood vents. It helps a lot with reducing engine bay heat and temps
Through youtube I am the fly on the wall ...........my mk7 is gonna get it
Total side question, if on stock motor, where is the sweet spot to stop based on your experience if daily driving. Can you get by with Vortex or XL sized turbo, MPI and enjoy it with some longevity if you atay on top of maintenance? Seemed like you put some decent miles on your stock motor and beat on it pretty well... appeared to hold up but i don't have all the backstory im sure.
So ive been working at this for a while. best all around for daily is mid 400's. so hang between 450-480 for best overall 'fast' and reliable. go with a small enough turbo for that goal too which is imo TPC25. itll be low 8's high 7's 60-130. My Red GTI made that power, i had that car since new and sold it at 40k miles. probably 300+ races on that car alone and it was always the daily. once you get above say 520whp stock motor youll find yourself with more of a "race" car.
best maintenance is always engine oil at 3-5000mi and trans fluid every 10k. spark plugs every oil change and coil packs every 10k. not much else to it.
@@SportyMk7 your awesome! Parts needed: intake, IC, DP, MPI + LPFP, flex sensor, turbo and tuning for that setup correct? I know you've recommended buying low mileage. If you can buy well maintained higher miles (80k) for 10k less, run til it blows then do built motor with the savings, is that a flawed idea?
@@05pharmd bare bones; mst intake, trackslag downpipe, rs3 brushless lpfp, TPC25, any form of 980cc mpi, any form of intercooler. your choice of tuners and e85.
imo any car under 50k miles is usually decent for those power goals. but nothing more without the risk going way up
What front brake caliper are you using did you say Wilwood ? What model bolts up ? Or using a bracket ?
its a kit from vargas, vtt wilwood mqb kit
Impressive! When you're back up and running and all it would be wicked to see you line up with Jewels @jewelcity but he's over in California so distance may be an issue. Lol He's a good guy running a GTI with a built IS38 HYBRID turbo crushing V8s on his channel. He's fast and I support my Vw community but a lot of his fanboys run their mouths thinking GTIs are faster than our Rs. Lmao. I think you could take him lol
Jewels is running a vortex xl with all due respect when this car is done a xl is not competition to it. James from eqt has a eqt typhoon turbo fully built gti. That car might be a better match up. Or Matt with his 800 hp AWD swap gti. Is38 hybrids stock motor cars running 7s 60-130 is a waste of time for this car to race.
Jewels would not be any competition for this car… good dude but not the same league
@@jacksoneverett5817- right I just wanted to see how many buses Sporty would put on him lol
I think a good race would be sporty vs mk7_onepock he has a white golfR built by a2b running good thats would be a good race and i think he is located around tampa, matt would be a great race too with the awd gti👌👌
@@roymartinez25that’s a fast golf r too. 5s 60-130 and did the 1/4 in 9s.
Can you show me your setup for venting the catch can to atmosphere?
sure message me on instagram @ sportymk7
@@SportyMk7 i don’t have Ig, but i have fb.
hows ur timing chain? any issues with the stock one and did u change it
Timing chain is Oem, besides the crank pulley if you want to count that as timing.
did u upgrade ur rear main seal?
Yes, it’s an 034 rear main
What is the best overall dsg. Like out of all the cars A3,GTI,GLI,S3,R
Usually golf r / S3
Specifically the DQ381’s. Pretty much the same as a DQ500 but without the long gearing. Same clutch design, same case, gears are made out of the same material, etc.
381 is tricky with tuning which is why it’s not as popular as the DQ250
IMO dq381 are the weakest so many have failed over the years, dq500 is king
@@MrChans_S3 understand why that’s the case. People just don’t know how to tune it correctly. Same goes for dq250 but we have people going 8.7 @157mph on a stock 250 with clutches
@@SportyMk7 Damm you’re absolutely correct on that I tend to forget about tuning I heard it so many times depends on the tuner on what makes a car break or go. I’m switching tunes soon and the guy told me 500 tq I’m like isn’t that to much I heard it breaks stock motor, he told me nah they just don’t know how to tune. I thought it was a pretty bold statement until I seen the cars he tuned. Mind blown! 🤯 thanks for the enlightenment
@@MrChans_S3 Which tuner?
New to the channel how much for your 546hp setup vs now ?
in terms of price?
@@SportyMk7 yes
@@2GunDeeall and all is 35,000 not including car price. Keep in mind I’m including every little thing and this is a “total” valve not so much how much was actually spent. If I had to guess an actual price it’s around 7000 on stock motor and 20,000 in built motor setup
Keep in mind he is doing his own wrenching which is saving any labor costs as well.
did i just hear the words WPC!!!!!
Yes, baller stuff for this platform lol
@@SportyMk7 & ported head!! are you in Canada? Have you checked out the EQT Typhoon turbo?
never mind my comment. lol
@@bcshayFlorida, but yes CNC ported head. Flows just as well as a stock 4g63…
@@SportyMk7 after watching the rest of the vid heard you mention tampa. i was an sarasota. just moved. anyways, i’m following. your build is another level.
I think the way u dont give a f bout haters adds 1000whp
i know it would be expensive but have you looked at the head the guys from ecotune are using in the uk? it's swapped to a true 4 port exhaust. would def help with iat's and flows a ton. ua-cam.com/video/Y8D-8BFOCLI/v-deo.html here is the vid of them on officially gassed.
I’ve seen the bench flow data for a 4 port head, it’s actually less than what my ported head flows. So sadly wouldn’t help much unless I overport that one
