This video has made me like the sound of a golf r for the first time. Hate the sound of standard golf r regardless of whether it is straight piped. This sounds great. Insane power for the cylinders
Stan and his team at Ecotune are awesome guys to deal with! They went above and beyond for me and my old bmw e39 back in the day! I highly recommend! Congrats with the project boys ❤
Shoe on the other foot for once. RHD normally hates fancy manifolds and engine swaps when RWD due to the steering column being in the way. Nobody K swaps MX5s over here or puts fancy headers on BMWs etc :(
My dads got a built gti with the typhoon turbo from EQT. The car makes slightly under 700hp. For a little 3000lb FWD car it MOVES. Just no traction in 1st to 3rd gear lmao. Crazy fun car for roll racing.
Great team there at ecotune 😎 7 cars I’ve had tuned by them so far Never had any issues and always had great customer service. Just got my 335d f30 done couple of weeks very similar power to yours Jamie 👀
Unbelievable power ! Minted car ! I actually had my car into Ecotune today for new discs & pads on my S3, they also fitted my twin friction RTS clutch * sachs flywheel... oh, amd my 24mm Whiteline Performance Rear Anti Roll Bar.. they know their stuff the Ecotune Team 💪💯 Also their customer service is on point 👌
Seen your car on their page earlier! I’m about to get the RTS clutch & sachs flywheel fitted in my golf R the next week or 2! Ecotune’s stage 1’s are meant to transform these !
The twin friction clutch bites each gear harder than a tramp eating hot chips ! 🤣 It'll drag you all the way to hell before you fasten your seat belt so hold on tight & enjoy the fun ! It's gonna be like a whole new car ! Makes such a difference 💯💪
@@cjlewis5455 the stock clutch lasted until then? Or were you already running a aftermarket one before? What was stage 1 like for you ? I cannot wait Also interested to see what stock power feels like on the new clutch / flywheel as I’m sure it does slip at times
Savage 👌🏻😈, ecotune is just up the road from me now and if I didn’t have a 20 plate cupra 290 with “fwd” id get this package tomorrow. Really great guy’s to deal with, they used to take my map off my previous car for warranty work then re-install it for £0 , they are mqb specialists. Trust me if you stay in England it’s worth the drive. Dying to see the next video now 👍
Mind Blown is right! 🤯Amazing R Build! Thanks for the great explanation on the setup. Maybe I missed it but no Quarter Mile time or 0-60? Or saving that for the next episode? 🙂
The one thing I hated about my MK7 R but love about my new Meg RS IV, it's playful, even though it's fwd and has less power (340hp 440nm stage 1 tuned, compared to my golf's 400hp 490nm stage 2), the driving experience is completley on another level. This power is ridiclous but seems to give a little more playfulness and fun, which is what I was missing when I owned one, it's just crazy that it takes 800+ hp and slight mods to Haldex to do that. Crazy car!
@@alexandruturza7131 Track times speak for themselves though (compared to cupra), the Renault is better in the corners despite it's inferior power plant and is a far more driver focused and better handling car which is what I was looking for, power 0-60 and 60-120 times come second for me, as where I live I can't use the power I already have most the time. If you ever get the chance to drive one you 100% should. And on the new one with the 4 wheel steer the rear end gets happy when pushing it. GTI clubsport is faster yes but alot more money also than what I payed for my MK4 RS and I've driven one, they're not as much fun. I also prefer the way the RS looks and it's more of a unicorn.
@@LARGE_COKE Thank you for your details. I was thinking to buy soon a Leon Cupra but I will take in consideration the Megane IV as well. I am from Romania and here we have mostly Golf R. Very little Cupra and never saw on the streets one Megane IV.
@@alexandruturza7131 no problem bro, this is why I bought one I heard they where amazing cars to drive and they’re rare to see on the road, I like that it’s different. Also it was £18,000 compared to the GtI Club Sport being around £30,000. And the two cars can be compared similarly.
This has got to be one of the nicest sounding EA888 engines I've heard. Great build
*cries in 2023 GTI Clubsport with Akra from the factory*
Very special head setup.
They sell them now too.
(RHD only 😭)
Yeah sounds awesome never heard a golf like this
Thats thanks to a) More flow on the turbo, but mostly b) That manifold + the head.
Yeah it sounds good. Doesn't have that fart can sound that the engine typically produces.
How does this look so fast yet so chilled and refined. Testament to an awesome build.
Modern vag for you. It’s why there are dangerous I think you don’t realise how fast it is until you look down 😂
Its a german car
810bhp from a 4 cylinder 20ltr engine? That's MAAD GASS! Big up Jamie, big up the guys involved with this beast. 🏴
2.0 litre 4 cylinder Honda engine can produce more power

@@Honda3737gs Well if you spend enough money any 2.0l 4 banger can be more powerful than this. That doesnt mean that this is not impressive!
@@Honda3737gs2 liter older GTI 4 cylinder engine did produce even more. Almost 10 years ago. Not sure everyone remembers boba motoring...
Cosworths have been doing this for 25 years.
You know its fast when Jamie's talking / smiling like this lol. What a bad ass golf R! Congrats gents!
Good to see ecotune getting some more recognition. My A3 tfsi is stage 2 ecotuned and it pulls hard for a lil k03 turbo
What was the price mate ?
@@alfredasrusas6995 the actual map itself was 450 if I remember correctly
@@alfredasrusas6995 bought all parts separately before the map
Do they ever do remote tunes for folks in the states?
how much u had on dyno after tune and how much stock if i may ask
Once again jamie brings the cars we love to see, would love to see this on the battles against the teg 😮

I need to take the TTS up to see them. Same engine, right? 😁
@@NoName-ns6iz in a nutshell, yes!
The Scottish have invented SO much through out history, its no surprise they've turned their heads to cars, amazing work!
I hope we can see the evil Golf r at a drag race on Sunday soon 😈
This head setup is driving me insane. It sounds sublime and I want one so badly for my S3, but its RHD only!!!
Us yanks are out of luck. 😓

14:47 You can see the other guy basically saying, alright slow up now buddy 😂😂
Pushing the dq250 so far is crazy but the dq500 is always inevitable
Dq 500 i think has torque limiters at 600nm
guys on this dsg´s you have plenty upgrade options to handle almost 1200NM
Galano is Australia ran into the 8s on the DQ250 so can be done
Why not the DQ381? That's what HPA Motorsports uses for their 2.5L VR6 set up
@@agent47isn1250 has better ratios
Alot of power for these engines, i wouldnt want to take mine to those levels, ticking time bomb for sure 😅
Outstanding Golf R us Scots love a fast motor 🏴🙌
The 8k redline changes the sound so much, almost sounds JDM!
well.. this makes my 370hp golf r feel slow 😳 Can't even imagine how that one feels
i was thinking the same thing...
I’ve got a 382bhp Polo GTI with Ecotune, defo need to squeeze more out of the golf 😉
alot ppl forgot golf R 300 is 150forward 150 back total 300hp that why its feel like an EV
My dads got a built gti with the typhoon turbo from EQT. The car makes slightly under 700hp. For a little 3000lb FWD car it MOVES. Just no traction in 1st to 3rd gear lmao. Crazy fun car for roll racing.
Mannnn I love our Golf R's they honestly never disappoint thank you so much for sharing this guys!!!
Love the guys face at 14:47 14:50😂👊🏼
Id love to see affi r34, the integra and this 8n a drag race, would be fun
I always seen this car since Im working around where it parks and its mad to see it on youtube and that its 810HP !
We definitely need a race of this golf on OG battle
Mad to think this much BHP out of 4 cylinder well done 👏
BOBA golf 2 litre 1200hp
No doubts! here we used to have a 1400hp Agu 20v!
I personally think jamie is the best car youtuber out there he needs more subs
Yeh I agree he’s entertaining and passionate need him to come over to Australia to see the fast kangaroo cars 😂
Great video, and massive progression from the Reflex Stage 1 I have which is still a monster
Great team there at ecotune 😎
7 cars I’ve had tuned by them so far
Never had any issues and always had great customer service.
Just got my 335d f30 done couple of weeks very similar power to yours Jamie 👀

Ea888s are amazing engines
Ecotune 🚀 Enough said
EA888 sounds juuuuust fine now.
Power to weight is definitely key here😊
ECOTUNE been building Loch Ness monsters with the MQB 2.0 4 pots and 2.5 5 pots. They deserve all the lime light.
Damn!!! 😱 I'm loving this 😍
And I’m worried about breaking my standard one 😂

used to work near ecotune everytime you walked passed something was on the dyno, the lads put in work
Your work must be near me then 😃
Quality video Jamie you "Did it Again", wicked crazy GolfR
✌🤜🏽
Jamie is the best, Love Golf R 's this one is sick 🙂
I wonder if these guys will work on a US spec car 👀👀👀 I would absolutely ship my Golf R to get this power
Crazy to think that’s the ea888, same engine I’ve got in my scirocco but this has nearly 4 times the power my car has which is mental😂
I was wondering when someone was going to convert to a 4 port head , great job
I wish my golf sounded like that! It almost sounds like it has VTEC 😂
The look on his face when you were on it speaks volumes.. 🤣💪👌👌😂😂
What a absolute rocket. Love my R and keeping it a sleeper stage 3 hurts a lot of peoples feelings lol
Like what ?
Stage 3 m140i enters the chat
EcoTune are epic 😎🤙 run their software etc on my R and reflex is awesome. Stan is the man 😎🤙🤙🔥🔥
Best car and best accent ❤ from New Zealand 👏
That thing is crazy! Another great episode as always
Need to see some numbers in a battle! Mental build! ❤
🐐🔥🔥🔥 that's all I can say 🙌
Amzing set up with the head!
👍👍👍👍
the 8000rpm sounds fantastic.
Keep giving us these videos Jamie

Yeah will be Next episode
they said it does 9.1 in the 1/4
I have an mk6 R. What’s a safe power goal with a stock internal? Thanks for the vids my guy
There is a golf R in UAE that got 1300hp , but it has a I5 single turbo engine
So it's not a golf r anymore
Jamie this has to be the first car you vs against on OG battles when your cupra is ready 😮💨
Bro …oh my gooooood chuckle scoff what on 🌍. Jamie’s reactions always make me howl 😂
Smashing it again 👀💪
Once the Honda is dialed in at it's new power level this golf R will be the perfect match on OG battles.
Sounds almost like a flat plane crank. One hell of a screamer and sounds very different to the others.
We need to see more of this car.
Woww emazing car question for you the DSG transmission or the manual gearbox better on it give it more fun and power and speed
Hugeee Machine 🚀🚀🚀
Seen the Ecotune guys at gassed on track. Wish we would of seen this haha .
Did the dq250 have 1100 upgraded clutch ?
Great car👏👏👏, how much 100-200?
Who wants to see a volkswagon vs Honda og battle, GOLF R vs the TEG, Honda for the WWWWW
I may not exactly like the sound of this R (too high-pitched for my taste), but goes like hell. Wow.
High free revving 🎉
Why is this may I ask I like the sound of golf r’s
@@mrunusual8341 It's just so high-pitched, I don't enjoy that.
@@EFerrorfile I meant why does it sound so high pitched not digging at you
@@mrunusual8341different turbo manifold + revving to 8k instead of the usual 6750-7000
No way a ea888 sounds like a bit to an NA engine with it can actually makes 800+ wow that's so unbelievable
This r and the acura should be a nice race
What's the advantages of a tiguan transfer box?
What about the daily 1000bhp golf r from no messin?
has this had a rs3 lump put in it or built golf r engine?
Golf R engine
Rs3 is a 5 cylinder this is a 4 cylinder so golf r engine....
You can clearly see 4 coilpacks, it's the ea888 gen3

VW FAM 👊🏽😎
Need this to make an appearance on carwow with you in the driver's seat
The Golf R is a Volkswagen even Audi fans love
top tier software
On full throttle the sound it makes is comparable with the engine noise of a Ferrari 458. Mad!
Okay I thought this comment was completely stupid until I heard it, you’re comment couldn’t be any more true😂
Lovely sound... got a whiff of McLaren V8 to it
Pretty damn insane. Hoping the MK8 R will get more support soon
How much would it cost off the shelf? I missed it 🤔 Epic car ❤
Them calipers are doing the job for stock ones R
This Golf vs your Honda , pleaese😊😊
Awesome man
