That's not rolling launch, that's just the gearbox kicking down. As someone who tunes the EA888 there is no rolling launch options at all on the dsg boxes. For rolling launch it would require building boost thats flooring the throttle and pressing the button at the bottom of throttle to get it to kick down into gear. Lovely example of a golf r tho not me being a asshole at all with what I put above but don't want people messaging MRC saying can I get rolling launch when its not a think on any S3 8V or MK7 or MK7.5
Agreed, mine does that but only in S mode - I’ve had it to VW as I always thought there was a fault due to the hesitation but apparently it’s just the characteristics of the gearbox?
My uncle had a mk 7 golf r but had to sell it recently because he was getting to carried away with it and was getting to much speed tickets so he traded it in for a 2013 range rover
Gli with upgraded turbo not awd but they have decent power for a sedan and is also fun to drive. I had all of them gli, gti and now the golf R. Will try to swap the R into RS 2.5T Mk7 ☺️
Has the gearbox been mapped? That rolling launch didn't sound healthy for the engine. Sounded like he dropped a gear by mistake at first untill he explained.
thankful to NOT see carbon fiber replaced body parts... hate when they do that thinking the car is now a Pagani Zonda... it just looks awful, and from afar, like it had an accident and someone slapped another car's piece on it.
@@hampshirephoto im doing research on them myself the vidoe couldn't off come out at better time lol what would you prefer manual or dsg I noticed he had the dsg never drove dsg myself though
Sup brosephs! Can you ask Aaron if he simply put a black vinyl over his front grill emblem, or is it an actual VW logo type vinyl? (i have tried both before on my mk7.5.)
Much much safer for the seat to be all the way back. believe it or not. In a crash if the seat is more forward you run the risk of the front of the car and dash crushing your knees in and legs. Cases of paraplegics because mostly women drive with the seats all the way forward and then crash
He looks really uncomfortable driving this car.... only thing I hate about the “ car scene “ , everyone feels like they need to have their seat away back and the steering wheel pushed all the way in etc
Nice motor, tastfully done and no 15 seconds of ridiculous popping. Sort your driving position though man. Disaster waiting to happen youre not driving an a6 all road up the a1.
I dont think thats rolling launch. It seems like he just hit the kicksdown switch. Normally rolling launch requires you to set a speed or hold a button down and it looks like he just mashes the pedal down
nev5or How about you not make assumptions about people you don’t know & work on yourself🤦♂️ It’s easy to make it not your fault if it’s all about people being born rich. Has it occurred to you that people have worked incredibly hard to get the things they own? No? Cool, keep being a loser & thinking everyone else just has things handed to em. You’ll be 75, with very little & still blaming others...👍 Oh, and it’s pretty bad form to ask people where they get their money from. If they don’t volunteer it, then don’t ask. Basically, it’s nona’ya fuckin’ business.
I diddnt know they did a stage 2+ for the mk7 + mk7.5 Whats the difference between a normal stage 2? I know on the Mk6 it was for the HPFP upgrade which gave you loads more midrange torque.
Intercooler - that's it on a 'plus'. Really it's just stage 2 - but in recent years people have decided that if you upgraded the intercooler then it's now a stage 2+. All stage 2's should have intercooler upgrade, but since that's expensive a lot of people have had a detuned stage 2 map to account for the stock intercooler. 407 bhp - on a happy dyno. Most dyno's nowadays are 'happy' - i.e give you a somewhat inflated crank hp figure to keep the customer happy. It won't be far out tho, probably around 390bhp on an accurate dyno such as the surrey rolling road.
How do all these 14 year old looking mateys afford golf r's and audi rs3 etc. I remember back in the day when all the boys were in corsa, novas and clios etc grinding for mods and power. Now it's all financed foot down and go get a map and dsg farts
Yeah I don't get it. I can just about afford a fiesta ST working full time at 24, but the insurance costs as well? Like a stock golf r is nearly 1500/1600 quid for me fully comp, let alone modded and all that! Fuck knows how they afford it.
@@RiperSnifle Because 90% of them all live with their parents still, even if they have an average to low paying job ( £1200-1500) a month and pay no board you can see its very easily affordable with next to no outgoings. ( Car finance £300 a month, insurance lets say £150) they've still got over 1k a month spare cash.

Thanks to Aaron from BoostedByAaron for taking me out in his Golf R 🙌🏻 bit.ly/boostedbyaaron
1:55 when he says 'discontinued white silver' does he mean Oryx?
Hi
Does Aaron still own this car ?
My man's chillin so much he's driving from the boot
Dude can barely reach the steering wheel 🤦♂️
🤣🤣
Rollin’ wit da ‘Omies :)
😂
😎😂😂😂
The last time I sat like that was when I was getting a filling at the dentist.
😂
Hes driving a golf r bought for him by his parents what do you expect
LoL
Sorry but he's sat way to far back! You can clearly see that his arms aren't far of being straight! If he lost control its game over!
Looks super uncomfortable too! Why would he do this?
All about that lookin cool
Slide your seat forward mate you can hardly touch the steering wheel. 🤦🏼♂️
Perfect example of an incorrect driving position
that was the first thing that came to my mind too - does he even know how to sit properly?
Is he sitting in the back???
Yeah I'm not getting in a car with this much power if the driver can barely reach the wheel!
I was thinking exactly the same
the stage 2+ mk7/7.5 golf r's are some of the most fun cars on the road--and will be for a long time. nice car!
I agree
He's 2 metre distancing from the steering wheel 🤣
Hahahaha 😂
Absolutely Incredible Car. I like that the owner hadn't gone over the top with the visual customisation.
Yeah

I think the golf r is needed back on your channel bud, nice video 🔥🤤
Thanks buddy, and yes I feel you’re not the only one with this opinion 😂👍🏻
Interior just looks old and cheap in these cars though to be honest
@@slen6293 true but this is still the previous gen, when the golf 8 r comes out it will most definitely have a better feel for luxury
No! He betrayed entire VW golf community! 😄
@@hampshirephoto 🤝🏽
Thanks for the huge shoutout and opportunity :)
The stock golf r brakes are pretty amazing
The smiles on your faces in car says more than words - well done boys👌🏽👍🏽
Wow, that rolling launch is sick, and that 2k 4k rpm launch. 🔥🔥
Took me by surprise!!

I have rolling lunch with Integrated engineering stage 2. Hold the brake and the gas, let it build boost, and then just let off the brake.
The way he holds the wheel makes me nervous
One of the best sounding custom exhausts mk7.5.ive heard.
Take it to Surrey rolling road. My B5 RS4 was tuned by MRC many years ago ! Still running fine with 209k miles with 496ps 702NM
He should remove the front seat, and just sit on the back seat to save on weight.... :D
one of the best sounding newer inl 4cyl s
🤮🤮🤮
@@richiesworld1 to each their own
May comment again but the stance is on point!
Ive got the golf r too but i dont rate the sound of this. Loud isnt necessarily better and especially in a 2.0L 4 cylinder
If I got one I'd want it to sound quiet... 2.0T 4s sounds so boring to me. But I bet I would enjoy the power.
Nice ride, lovely colour and cool wheels.
My uncle had a mk 7 golf r but had to sell it recently because he was getting to carried away with it and was getting to much speed tickets so he traded it in for a 2013 range rover
thats one of the best modded golf r ive seen. sits nice wheels and spoiler good. sounds great for a golf r aswell.
Would be nice to have a hothatch race with modified cars only like this golf vs your m140i a modified megane rs, focus rs,i30N..etc
If they make a Jetta version of the golf R, that would be great!
Gli with upgraded turbo not awd but they have decent power for a sedan and is also fun to drive.
I had all of them gli, gti and now the golf R. Will try to swap the R into RS 2.5T Mk7 ☺️
Just realized how unpredictable UK weather is… Nice car!
Buddy almost sits in the trunk.
Hahah
The rims are spot on
Nothing wrong with R Cadiz wheels 😎🤙
Finally something worth while
Hi man! Amazing car! Can I ask you how much turbo pressure do you have? Thanks!
I believe I have asked this before but does a car in this state pass MOT?
Ayooo what happend to the windows at 4:46 ???? Someone tell me
Sounds like turbos gonna go bang, whistling under boost
Nice bit of compressor suge🤔🤔
Nice car ...looks like mine... I love the spolier and way it sits .....dam... your setup is mint ... and it sounds reEal nicE 👍
Very nicely done, just right.
When is the hot hatch versus series coming back ? :)
Soon!
What when he just rates his own car over some one elses 😂😂👎👎
Has the gearbox been mapped? That rolling launch didn't sound healthy for the engine. Sounded like he dropped a gear by mistake at first untill he explained.
he’s been to the best mappers in the country they wont map an engine without doing the gearbox lol.
thankful to NOT see carbon fiber replaced body parts... hate when they do that thinking the car is now a Pagani Zonda... it just looks awful, and from afar, like it had an accident and someone slapped another car's piece on it.
Wow sounds so good with airpods in, cracking car nicely done 👍🏻
Sounds mega doesn’t it!
@@hampshirephoto im doing research on them myself the vidoe couldn't off come out at better time lol what would you prefer manual or dsg I noticed he had the dsg never drove dsg myself though
DSG for the R, manual for the GTI!
At least he's got decent wheel fitment to make up for that atrocious spoiler fitment.
Sup brosephs! Can you ask Aaron if he simply put a black vinyl over his front grill emblem, or is it an actual VW logo type vinyl? (i have tried both before on my mk7.5.)
Are those shadow plates legal?
No 110%
His meter from steering wheel 😭😭.,,
But that car is the best
how much quicker is your stage 2 m140i?>
Guess there’s only one way to find out
Stage 2 M140i is miles faster
@John Presley still a fucken corsa 🤣🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂
Mine does that awfully long beep on my mk7r inside the cabin as well when you plant foot down... no one can tell me what this is?? Anyone know?
Sound and look freaking amazing
I want to see you behind the wheel with mine when I get it back 🤭
Anyone know if this is burbles overrun or pop and bang ? Becos this sounds nuts not to much
Awesome car! 👍👍
Anyone that knows where to get that rear wing ?? 👍🏻thanks
Why does it say tsi on the valve cover?Is that vw’s variable valve timing
Why you think R310 is much better, R300 have more Nm..
Is it common for people across the pond to sit so far away from the steering wheel?? Seems pretty dangerous but whatever I guess... 🤷🏽♂️
Much much safer for the seat to be all the way back. believe it or not. In a crash if the seat is more forward you run the risk of the front of the car and dash crushing your knees in and legs. Cases of paraplegics because mostly women drive with the seats all the way forward and then crash
Bro, how about looking for a wide body golf ! Pls do a video on it!
any plans on reviewing an Mk6 Gti or R? btw love the videos man keep it up!
Thanks for the kind words! Nothing set in stone yet, but I’d love to
“Social Distancing” from the steering wheel mate? 🤣
That's gold ❤❤❤
So what was the exhaust you said custom but never said it
I'm 6ft 5 and I sit far back too just cause the knees get on the way of the steering!
I doubt this guy is 6’5”.
@@ryanthomastew whys that exactly?
Mans trying to pretend he’s 6”0 with the seat that far back
what rims you running?
Can u tell me how much this set up was
He should be listening to fat joes track lean back 😂😂
He looks really uncomfortable driving this car.... only thing I hate about the “ car scene “ , everyone feels like they need to have their seat away back and the steering wheel pushed all the way in etc
Nice motor, tastfully done and no 15 seconds of ridiculous popping.
Sort your driving position though man. Disaster waiting to happen youre not driving an a6 all road up the a1.
Why driver sat in back seat lol
WHATS THE 0 100 ????
You need to go in my manual 500bhp R 😎🤙🤙
I own one 😎👍🏻
@@hampshirephoto I know you do 😎🤙
I actually like this R bet it cost a few quid 💷
Nice R definitely but damn, learn what a proper driving position is. Just look up what race car drivers have as their driving position.
Nice, it would've looked much better with the Oettinger spoiler instead.
This is the Oettinger-style spoiler, so very similar
@@hampshirephoto true, just doesn't sit or fit as well. Other than that, the car looks great. Good video.
Dam wish my R looked like this, i thought tinted plates were a big no no?
They are I think but looks sick though.
lol be humble and grateful , you have a golf R mate it’s already looking magnificent, don’t be stupid
Yup 15% tint just got hit with a £100 fine by a lovely copper. Apparently they can fine you £200 front and back but it’s up to their discretion...
@@starski4578 sorry i spoke to soon
I dont think thats rolling launch. It seems like he just hit the kicksdown switch. Normally rolling launch requires you to set a speed or hold a button down and it looks like he just mashes the pedal down
I think that’s just how it’s mapped in. Either way it’s pretty cool!
Frustrating to see these cars and the drivers have zero control of the car sitting back there :-(
His moobs are nearer to the steering wheel than his arms are 😂
What wing is that ?
One of the better sounding exhaust other than the Invidia Q300 cutback.
That's a huge gap on the spoiler
So the hatch can open
What wheels are those?
Why don't u buy another one mate??
How have you managed to afford your m140i and to run it? What do you do for work
@John Presley lol that's what I thought
nev5or How about you not make assumptions about people you don’t know & work on yourself🤦♂️

Stage 1 is already rapid enough. Can't see the point spending more loads of $$$ just for a few more hp? 😅
It’s only had an intercooler more gets you an extra 40 bhp cars run a lot more cooler mate
Check out Woza’s S3
What's that beep noise when he pulls?
Probably his turbo crying
@@joshpetit44 that does not sound good at all
You wanna trade your bmw back to the golf R ? 😂😂
That R in a sprint with your M140i and he will sell his R. 😅
Get another 👍🏼👍🏼
you shouldn't of sold the golf R you should of kept it and done this to it
I did explain why I didn’t in this video 👍🏻
this was before you said it
Nothin stickier than fingertip pad grip
Arturs golf r before Calvin got it.
god i forgot how bad my TTS must of sounded, b58 ftw
