    Awesome to be back working on a MK7.5! To score that IE discount, use this link performancebyie.com/HUMBLEMECHANIC824 OR put this discount code in!!! "HUMBLEMECHANIC824"
    Next week we will have PT2 up, that clutch break in timing throws the whole thing off. HAHA

      I want to thank you you answered an email to me when I was eyeing an R32 1st gen. A war buddy of mine talked me out of buying such an old car for a daily. I was eyeing a new Golf R and a 21' WRX STI. I went with the STI because of more backseat leg room and trunk space. But man your vids are intense.. I just wonder are you and Eric-The-Car-Guy still buds.. Hard to say you guys aint.

      Can we get an updated garage shop tour. Would love to see your set-up properly rather than trying to eyeball it in the background of your videos. Was one lift enough now it's been a few years down the line? Is there space for a 2nd lift or too cramped?

    We used the cardboard method during my time in the Air Force especially for a portion of the wingtip that has screws of different lengths into nutplates inside of a fuel tank. Ensuring the right one goes in the right spot plus hardware accountability being so important in aviation maintenance 10/10. Love the videos man, keep up the great work!

    IE is gold, imo one of the best off-the-shelf tunes available. Customer service is top notch, 99% included with the purchase of the tune. Not like other companies that if you want them to review the tune, recommendations etc, will charge an extra fee.
    Besides that their app makes it so easy to make changes and do dyno runs, no laptop required / (only on mk6 platform requires laptop).

    Great setup. My S3 made 411HP / 411 Torque (469/469 DynoJet) on pretty much the same setup on E50. The only difference is I’m running MPI. The turbo spools by 2900RPM and the transient response is like stock. It’s a great option if you want great response and a decent power bump over stock.

    Did you need to pre-fill the slave cylinder/throw out bearing with brake fluid before installing it? I’ve bled plenty of brake systems and clutches, I don’t see how you can bleed that thing 🤔 there’s no way for the air to be pushed through… or do the bubbles rise to the top where the bleeder screw is? How do you get trapped air out of the slave cylinder?

    Awesome video, wishing I had kept my 19 Golf R. Speaking of Golfs. I do have a 19 Alltrack SEL (1.8t) that I am considering finally modifying. I am 2nd owner buying it in 19 with 6k miles. All services have been completed on time, OEM at the dealership. Car has been absolutely solid with nothing breaking except of course the dreaded sunroof leak. Thankfully very minor. I am at 68k miles currently. I do not know how much is shared with the Golf R being this is a 1.8T DSG awd verses the Golf Rs 2.0T DSG awd setup. If I were looking to do these same mods hoping for same or similar power figures what else would I need to upgrade, change? The DSG? The Haladex? Axles or prop shafts? Essentially making my Alltrack a clone Golf R Estate (the European Golf R wagon we never got).

    I really wished I had the money and skill to upgrade our Tiguan R line. Maybe make it equivalent to the Euro Tiguan R or my dream would be a vr6 swap. Love this car though wish it was more unique

      you can do it with out the scanner. Its hazards on, and a series of gas pedal presses.. I think it's 5? that disables the rear wheels

    Hey...if I brought my car to you, could you Stage 1 my 2017? Need everything you just did except turbo and intercooler I'm thinking. DSG too.

    Always wondered why is DNUE E40 only? Does it need an upgraded HPFP + RS3 LPFP for full E85?

      They said it would likely need MPI for full e85 too
