I appreciate your verifying the upgrade intercooler performance versus the OEM unit. I look forward to your continued verification of any additional mods versus the OEM parts. Bring on the DATA!🙂
“Everything gets filmed, that’s how a video is made” 😂😂really loving this car, really didn’t want to as I have the 7.5 but v jealous 😂doing a great job boss👌🏽🫶🏽🤘🏽
Can't wait for the downpipe update man! Things a beast already. There was an 8R in West Germany that was crashed and selling for parts. I'll look it up for the performance pack spoiler and if it's available, will inform you. They are quite expensive right now though, idk if it's worth it
Regards to the spoiler - I personally used 3M VHB 5952F to secure my lip spoiler on my 5 Series. It's litrally the best tape I've used to secure it. I recommend using that before splashing the cash on anything else.

@TRHamza, love your videos bro. I have a VW mk8 Golf 21 plate that I'm in the middle of modifying and would really appreciate a chat for your knowledge as already done it
Hi Ade, I put a Wagner Tuning Intercooler on my S3 8p and it made a difference, especially when tuned to Stg2+. It's weird watching my intake temps when flooring it and the temps are going downwards. I do have water meth as well but turn it off to see the effect of the IC on temps
Hey, I have just bought an E60 M5, I pick it up in 2 weeks. I actually live quite close to you :). What has it been like owning on for you? I've wanted one for a long time but was and still am nervous about reliability. Other then what we've seen in the videos, whats it been like?
Hamza really hope you could help me. What was the reason you went with do88 over Wagner. People scream Wagner being the best but you was bold enough to go with another brand and I’m intrigued as to why because I’m in the same situation now but on a MK7 R. Which do I go with
Is it really effective? I want to add an intercooler to my AUDI s3 8Y 2022 but I only want to do stage 1 does it really help or is necessary to add it and does it add more HP to my car ?
5% increase. Its good result and very health for engine :) Also it should increase remap potential a bit more and must have much better benefit in very hot days :)
Interesting engineering decision to put the FMIC behind the A/C condensor. Normally the other way around, would make more sense to do it this way, especially in a performance car. RS3 has it directly at the front, as do Mitubishi Evos and countless others. If it works it works I guess.
Probably increases it stage 1 are known for an increase in mpg and the intercooler providing more dense air will also make it more efficient thus increasing mpg.
@@TRHamza Iv ordered a eventuri carbon intake, it’s cost a fortune but it’s a work of art to look at, I said I wouldn’t spend nowt else but it’s impossible
How did you find the fitment and also what is the core size? I have a pumaspeed 65mm core on my octavia vRS mk3 (ea888) and im finding the fan surround is practically touching the engine, with no adjustment the mechanic reckons. so contemplating removing and getting an airtec which is 60mm
I have the do88 ic on my vrs mk3.5 good fit had to adjust the side mouldnings in front of the ac condensor, the flappy ones on the side. Performes very well with the garrett powermax turbo
@@ronniemattsson yes mines the 3.5 FL the late 230 engine style. Im ready for stage 2 once my downpipes done im just not convinced that this intercooler is mounted in the best way. What core is the intercooler you’re running mate? Also in what way did you adjust for correct fitment? Thanks
And this is without any e85, that made a pretty big difference on the evo motor in the rs3. I think this turbo should have high 400’s in it all things considered
@@TRHamza maybe the ecu can adapt to the low temps, the same way you can feel the power drop through heat soak. I'm no expert just trying to use some logic. We don't know what VW have programmed into the ECU. It takes into account a whole lot of variables.
@@tyranic1 I see what you are saying but just wanted to see if actual adjustments have been made. He said no but I’m sure the ECU does stuff on its own or it just benefits from colder inlet temps
@@mqbr22all cars have IAT sensods and very wide ecu tables of temperature differences and fuel corrections. Actually tune is never needed, because cars ecu can perfectly compensate in real time without any high delay of lag or etc. Even if IAT shows only few celsius, its in ecu tables :p
Does doing the down pipe make the car no longer road legal in the uk? I have a Golf r but want a better sound from the exhaust but worried about messing with the pf
Downpipe makes no difference to the car being legal, you only need a larger pipe if you're going stage 2 & above If you just want more noise you should delete the resonator, Easy cheap & sounds great
@@pauldavies7251 thanks for the info, would this be something a normal garage could do or would I have to take it to a custom exhaust specialist to delete the resonator ? Cheers for the info
@@TimChump An intercooler and a charge cooler are exactly the same thing, just a different way of describing their use. Both take charged air from the turbo, and cool it down using air to air heat transfer and pass it to the intake manifold via a charge/throttle pipe.
Downpipe next
Can't wait

You don't mess around when it comes to getting the mods inn sick car bro to the moon 😎👌👊
Loving how you're doing this one bit at a time, instead of getting it all done in one video. Keeps the content fresh and interesting👌🏽👌🏽
Common misconception that I/C doesn't add BHP - it does 😎. 20bhp is a great result in this instance
You can tell how much you enjoy this am glad you got your hands on a sick whip not that others aren’t but a new car and you have gone all out on it ❤
Great video like always, can't wait to see more mods on the MK8 🔥🔥
Rate the consistency lately! Been watching the channel from day dot
Thank you! 🙌🏼
Nice gains. Looking forward to downpipe and other mods!
Makes a huge performance difference mate 🔥👍
Another great video with lots of clear information...
Solid intercooler that. Looks really well engineered.

Never really liked the MK8 R when it came out but definitely after seeing this one it’s certainly has a lot of potential
I saw your golf r video and immediately changed my gti order to a golf r roll on 2024 new favourite CZcamsr
Nice! Thank you
Sick car bro 🔥👊🏽
Props to the constant dyno conparisons.
Excellent and you only get better
Brave on a new car that's the warranty gone south lol going to be a serious bit of kit when it's all done great video as always 👍
Up to 20 bhp from just the inter cooler 😮 impressive 👍
Dug is like a tuning god 👍
Try put 3m command strips on the spoiler there really strong and won’t fall off at high speeds
Love it
The intercooler is one of my most over looked mods on my MK7. But when I’ve hit the track and see other cars tap out I remember why I got it 😅
What intercooler you running? I’m torn between do88 and Wagner. Not a track car at all just a daily stage 2

Thank you!
Another great update bro. Can’t wait to see it out on the road 👍
Great work. Any idea of 0 to 60 and 1/4 mile with just the intercooler and stage 1 map?
All those stone chips on that cooler will also restrict flow. top content as always 👌
Nothing better for the engine than good fuel and cold air
Exhaust then eventuri intake and racingline gas strut next
@TRHamza, love your videos bro.

I wanna know if that metal oil pan will fit on the gen 3 tsi?
TNF should sponsor this guy
At what point do you need to upgrade the clutches in the dsg? How much torque can the gearbox handle?
DO88 is what I have on my 911 Turbo. Good quality items.
Great video again! What do you do for a living?
Hamza it would help if you talk about pricing etc.
Impressive!
Another quality video 👍 You should bring that to Scotland and try some proper roads.
Often wondered if i should chnage mine on the S3 ... interesting ....

Mans on holiday but I’m still
gonna watch 👍🥶
So, does the mk7 intercooler fit the mk8?
Good job

Damn I need to get my Audi s3 one. EQT stage 2 E85 with stock intercooler.
5% increase. Its good result and very health for engine :) Also it should increase remap potential a bit more and must have much better benefit in very hot days :)
How much do mrc charge for mk8 r remap

There are fmic form the mqb but they're not as big as the mid ones so a factory fit upgrade is best for performance as seen on mk7 platform
Wer can I get this done
And just like that ordered the Intercooler
We still don’t have this car in South Africa but funny enough the RS3 was launched a month ago
Racing line intake next?
Will probably end up hitting close enough to the top end of 400 maybe even hit 500 with a decat and opf delete.
Would be good, maybe with some fancy fuel. We will see
@@TRHamza what max power is the engine reportedly safe to operate at (without bending rods, or otherwise needing to reinforce internals?)
Not sure as no one’s done any big builds on the Gen 4 EA888 yet, guess we’ll find out when I get a hybrid turbo on it
when r600 evo + exhaust ?
Hamza the only guy i could buy a car off without seeing it first
Still would like to know the cost of the tune from mrc 🤷🏻♂️🤔
ive seen stage 2 mk8 gtis doing 440bhp , so i cant wait to see stage 2 figures in the future.
Where the hell? I need to see that
@@arronlowley5659 see the Clubsport changes for sure. I wish the states got a Clubsport. I’d spend 50k on a solid clubsport
It would be interesting to know how much of a hit to fuel economy over stock all these performance mods cause...
Probably increases it stage 1 are known for an increase in mpg and the intercooler providing more dense air will also make it more efficient thus increasing mpg.
I had a stage 1 & mpg actually improved,
I'm at stage 2 now can still achieve 40mpg on the motorway but about 12mpg on A&B roads 🤣🙈

Wonder what stage 2 would be pushing if this is only "stage 1" ish👀
around 450 I reckon but all depends on the limit of the continental turbo
And this is without any e85, that made a pretty big difference on the evo motor in the rs3. I think this turbo should have high 400’s in it all things considered
Want to have the stage 1, at the same time don’t want to lose warranty. 😢
Dyno Jets always make you feel good. 😂
So it gained all that extra horsepower with out any changes to the tune? All from the intercooler?
Temperatures are a lot lower with a intercooler fitted so you can map higher boost on the turbo.
Yes no adjustment to the tune in this video. Just hardware change

Ah ok charge cooler is more efficient and reduces boost lag, surprised the new golf r is intercooled tbh
