Ever since I have been driving the #vw #golfr mk8 which we rebuilt on the channel I have been a bit underwhelmed. Although the car handled and stopped brilliantly it definitely lacked some drama and sound from the engine and exhaust. In this video we are going to fix that by fitting an exhaust made by @RPMPerformances and also then upgrading the eco tune courtesy of @volkswagenracinguk which will undoubtably transform the driving characteristics of the MK8 Golf R.

The exhaust sound way better than the stock one. well done on building this car, can not wait to see more modifications on this Golf R. Respect all the way from Dubai. 🤙
I like to wear my seat belt on the dyno to, I'm actually watching this in my livingroom holding a umbrella, good video chris enjoyed it mate 😊
😂 was to stop the dinging which i fixed earlier in the video
You just gotta love the GOLF❤. ALL THE WAY FROM SOUTH AFRICA 🇿🇦
What a weapon that is now! Nice to see you always put your personality into the cars. Started watching a few months ago and loving it so far! Keep up the good work. Just used the discount code for RPM and bought a GPF delete for my i20N. Bring on the noise 😁
I got Raclingline's Stage 1 tune on my 245 Tiguan Allspace (basically the Gti engine) as part of their Beta testing back in November. It now chucks out 339PS and 500Nm and using a rather shonky Android App timed 0-60 in 4.67 & 1/4 mile in a smidge over 13. Chris and the team in Milton Keynes are proper gents, can't wait to get my suspension lowered next and a chance to get the latest tune which see it good for 350PS
This has to be my current dream car, I drive a scirocco 2.0tsi at the moment and seeing you build this car to what it can be is very inspiring that I can hopefully own one of these someday!
Im sure you will and you will love it! 😊
You've done a great job with this! Looks, and it sounds awesome. RPM are great at what they do.
South Africa's golden car.... Vrrrphaaa🇿🇦🔥
Lovely car Chris! Hats off to you and what you've done to make it epic! 👍👏
Good to see your subs are going up. Really enjoying your channel.
Great job again Chris..looking forward to the next project already. That exhaust really is sick BTW 👍🏻
Man everytime I see those calipers I drop my jaw, what absolute units they are my guy
Was great to be apart of build! Hopefully now it’s an event driving it 😁
South Africa loves VW Golf R
When you floored it, it sounded awesome mate 👌
Brought my res delete for my m135i from these guys, went straight in and works a treat! Great content!
Where did you bring it too?
@@pb3382 brought it off eBay and fitted myself
Loved it man Love from India 🇮🇳
Cracking job Chris 👍
Got to love awesomes generous Dyno 😂
I replaced the entire exhaust on my 2020 FK8 and was amazed how (relatively) simple at was.
Quality as ever.👌
Great job Chris ❤ you are killing it bro 😎 love the content keep it up.🎉🎉🎉
Sounds bloody awesome, my dream car wish I could buy it from you.
U got new sub. All cheers from Bahrain 🇧🇭
The tune file is ready! South Africa let’s go🎉🎉
Love it bro the sound is amazing..... just need some advice going about doing a project car
Sounds so good. 😮 But try to do the exhaust install here in Denmark, the police will confiscate the car, because of a new downpipe and no filter😢
Brakes and Suspension first, great advice from Safety Slix. Great build Chris
WD40 as release spray? That would be enough for me to walk away.
😂😂😂
😂
What would you recommend for a spray?
Yep, nobody should spray WD40 on anything.
@@scott2495LD40
That's More Like It! 😎
I really love this car, and this serie. You made this car so NICE! your taste is just so delicious. Keep going with lovely videos and series from your cars.
We need the OBD scanner in South Africa 🇿🇦
Top video fella good numbers stock turbo
Ben’s a legend!!! 🤘 I just want my tcu tunable!!! 😢
Ugh! I wish we had the option for those seats in the US - that and the R wagon. So jealous!
Excellent stuff buddy 👍👍👍👍
Bettered you time by 14%. That pretty good for a drivable tune I would think.
3.45s 0-60 with 1 ft rollout on a -2.23% slope is damn impressive. :)
Love your content Chris! 🇿🇦
You could make a thousand enhancements to the car, some of them perhaps insignificant in their performance gains. Yet, as the owner, deep down you know that the ultimate change lies in swapping the engine for an Audi 5-cylinder TFSI. We all put up a tough front, but in the end, we all give in.
Smooth. Perfectly balanced?
Awesome video
Can u tell how much did that exhaust+breaks+suspensions+tuning cost ?
how much would getting all this done cost minus parts? Im getting my golf in about 6 months, want to know roughly what these professionals charge /hr. High quality work
Can you confirm what build date your car is for the TCU? Thanks. 🙏
Bold statement 🥴 I like it
Handmade to last 👌🏻
Thats over 100hp more amazing. How does the stock Fuel pump, oil cooler, water pump receive the new power ? Transmission tunning ? New injectors ?
Awesome car mate I’m definitely going to enter to win it , great work 👍
Love this golf r
Dang man was really hoping to give us a 1/4 mile run. We here in USA would love to see that. Regardless great video
In Europe, we go round corners.
Do you make all your videos in Norwich because I was actually very shocked that a youtuber like you knew about Norwich and I've just been looking for a place in Norwich to upgrade my new cars exhaust at and I think I found the perfect place thanks to you and this is also just down the road for me. Thanks!
Warrington my home town :D
Chris this is looking like a sarious beast brother!👊🦾🦾🦾🇿🇦
🇿🇦 ❤️
Absolute weapon that
I love the blue seatbelts in your Golf R! Where did you get them!
❤I Loved this video.
Love video bro
I the the last thing you can do is a upgraded intercooler, then youd have to look for hybrid turbos OR IS38 hybrids
Did You manage to improve Your 0-60 time? How is the racingline tune? Everything works good?
South Africa stand up 🇿🇦 they’ve modified our favourite car 😂
Thats awesome 👌 where is the rear diffuser from, who sells it?
love the golf fella so how much money all in on the car now . ?
i wonder how fast my golf r estate 7.5 would go with those bits ermmmmm lol its stock and staying that way lol.
How to disable the lamp probe warning light? with OBDEleven?
This car has been perfected by chris
Why the Canadian cap? I'm from Canada actually!
New sub!
Lovin' the mk8 build.....did u say its not a keeper?? What are you gonna do with it? Sale, raffle, give it to me??
chris when will it be up for sale quite local to you
What's your opinion on awesome gti 5 months after having the tune? Some people say to avoid this place....
I recently had the Racingline Stage 1 (low torque version) added to my MK8 R, however the turbo turbine blades cracked and destroyed the turbo. Car is only 2 months old from new. Sad times. Luckily Racingline paid for the replacement (as VW wouldn't cover it under warranty due to the tune) and installation. Not sure if it were a faulty part from factory, or it was the tune. Really hesitant to get remapped again.
Damn dude. What happened what’s the update ??
@@GLA45Amg716 Yea sucked. Not much of an update other than the turbo being replaced. Car is back to normal and I'm running it as stock now.
go all the way with a HPFP !
Love the mk8 r, i know many hate it but for me i love it and yes I have driven one before. Sick build this, have you seen TR hamza mk8 r ? His set upis sick🔥🔥🔥
Can you write off GPF also with OBDeleven?
Get that front number plate straight!
Class a would like to know how much it sells for Chris
Raffle this beast Chris 👍👍👍👍🥊🥊🥊👏👏👏👏🇺🇸🇬🇧🇺🇸🇬🇧🇺🇸
I hate to be that guy again because I love your videos…. But I’m really excited for a new project 😂
There will be something soon! Its inevitable 😅
@@Chris_SlixProbably something blue as well 😂
Get some Würth Boltex for the rusty bolts its awesome or a induction bolt heater
Workshops that use WD40 to loosen rusty screws, a true sign of "expertise".
Sick Mat, literally amazing. Merry Christmas ya filthy animal.
Can you remove the rev limiter on thoose new cars?
All love from🇱🇨
quality built exhaust but what about when an mot is required
add a vibrant resonator.
Awesome results. But you really need to install a (sports-)cat to keep it at least somewhat legal....
I swapped my 600cell cat for a sports cat (200cell) on my M140i, and it passed the first MOT, just about scraped through the 2nd, and failed misersably on the 3rd and 4th. They don't last long !!
You turned around near my house!
Very nice exhauste, no sport cat? No mot
06:37 can the pipe not run straight? Whats the bend for?
How did you get all that suede
I have a golf r-line would I be able to get upgrades like this golf R or am I a bit stuck?
@MotorHeartAT it’s the 2.0 litre diesel 19 plate. So yes In short.
@MotorHeartAT I appreciate the time you’ve taken to comment and has given me some great advice cause I really would love to make it sound nicer and a little bit quicker.
Would love a diesel build at some point 👀
Like Mat Armstrong off wish. Love the vids...
9:08 for launc control
How long you in Norwich for??
Did your seat belts come in the blue color ?
8:50 You're off by a second for the quarter mile. They're roughly 12.5. That mistake aside, cool video.
Mate Im considering in removing my cat from my scirocco r but dont want to deal with reinstalling it back on everytime its time for mot lol
Take a nice latte for the mot tester 😂
Has a bit of a drone but sounds good
