    I bought a 2018 RS3 Sportback in march - so glad I did. Great video guys! I went for a different intercooler, because with the Revo you kind of lose the area where the crashbar is located. Some intercoolers (like the Wagner Evo X) are even bigger and replace the entire crashbar, meaning you get more than double the surface area of the OEM intercooler. It also allows you to mount your ACC sensor. Only downside is $$$

    That's awesome. The inline-5 has such a great sound. It's almost like a two tone drone but the tones compliment each other.
    I want to do the same with a 2.5L AWD Mazda3. 500HP won't be just a tune like the Audi. It's going to need a additional injectors and a bigger turbo. But still, it's a car that most won't expect.

      When I had a 5C beetle turbo I knew a bunch of the guys doing development on the platform. Within 2 years people had doubled the HP with nothing more than a bigger intercooler, 3in downpipe, and stage 2 tune. There were multiple guys swapping in K04 turbos running methanol and getting 600+hp.
      VAG is awesome when you learn not to take the cars back to the dealership.
      Kempthorn Motors in Canton, Ohio told me there was nothing wrong with my beetle that wouldn't go into second gear regularly for over 16k miles. When they finally replicated the issue and swapped the trans, they gave me the car with the hose clamps to the radiator improperly reinstalled resulting in the hoses to blow off 50 miles down the road then when it went back in for service they gave me the car back with no oil in the engine resulting in the engine blowing 20 miles down the road resulting in me having to pay 10k to replace the engine on a car that had less than 50k miles on it.
      Never take your VW to a dealer for service and never do work with Kempthorn Motors in Canton, Ohio.

      As you said, people spend a lot more money in probably inferior products like those Rolex which are most likely still produced with the same old tools and old techs, when some other companies produce the same model better and a lot cheaper (they're still not cheap, but nothing close to the real ones).
      When even experts can't see the difference, except for blurrier fonts in the original product, you know you're not buying "quality" anymore but rather the brand ....

    I would love LOVE to see you guys do a fairly modern Volvo build. They too have a 2.5 5Cyl turbo that surprises everyone. Found in the Focus XR5, Volvo C30 and Volvo V40 (and a smattering of other applications). I had a '13 V40 T5 Rdesign. Fantastic hatchback, plenty of torque (380nm!) FWD sounded great. Would love to see a Volvo build as a sleeper

      The Focus 5-pots are Volvos. Great engines and gearboxes, but broadly speaking, you'll get better value out of an actual Volvo. S40 and C30 T5s instead of the XR5, and S40 T5 AWD (plus some mods) instead of the RS.

    The best way to improve an already not underpowered car is to invest heavy in suspensionparts. High-End Coilovers, PU bushings, anti roll bars ect, ect, ect..... I realized that yesterday when I was ragging my 252 bhp Opel (Vauxhall) Corsa E OPC (VXR) through narrow B-Roads. Till yesterday the plan was to forge the engine internals to get to about 300 bhp. But what limits the car at the moment is the suspension. I already have an ST-X set of coilovers. But I will switch a H&R anti rol bars and a KW V3 clubsport with uniballs. I do not agree with the tyre recommendation. I had the PS5 for about 1000 km on my Corsa and they are too soft. The steering felt numb. Then I switched to the Goodyear eagle F1 asymetric 6 and the car improved a lot in the feel in the steering. I trhin the PS5 are not as good as everyone says. Better go with the goodyears or PS4S!

From the 1970s to today, the only VW-designed engine is the VR6 engine family (including the W8, W12 and W16 variants). The 2.5L five cylinder came on the scene after VW Group acquired Lamborghini. Every other engine in VW Group is designed by Audi. So the Golf R is a VW with an Audi engine, contrary to popular belief.
