  • Indisputably one of the most popular hot hatches on the Aussie market and with good reason, the Volkswagen Golf R delivers great performance out of the box, but mated with some basic mods they are a sure fire rocket. We caught up with the team at Underground Performance who were fine tuning their own 2018 MK7.5 example.

    I have a MK6 Golf R, with just intake + downpipe + hpfp I dynoed at 220awkw just a couple bolt ons and a tune with the stock turbo, not at all bad for a hatchback lol, about 270kw at the motor in a hatch does go quite nice, the MK7 Golf R on the other hand is unreal just a tune alone will put you at 215-220awkw then once you start doing downpipe and intake you're at about 290kw at the motor or about 240awkw.

    • @copperkeyracing6167
      @copperkeyracing6167 Před 4 lety +2

      Completely agree. It's like there is a bible that defines how much power each stage has, that we all have in our back pocket, that we can reference anytime we feel like it... Or, wait, does google know? Nope.
      Stage 3 on a car that has 170hp, like the mazdaspeed protoge, would be what 300hp? Double the power? How about on a Lambo Hurracan? $1200hp?
      That's a huge difference. Stages mean nothing except for the person that came up with it. Talking out of his butt basically. Looking like an fool, while acting like you're ignorant and he isn't. Projecting basically.
