Had the R600 fitted to my Tiguan R, great result. Thanks to everyone at Regal.
G'day Alan, Did you tune your Tig R after putting the Intake on? Thinking of putting on on the Wifes Tiguan R but would prefer to wait for a remap rather than piggyback options.
Thanks for visiting and watching Alan! Hope you're enjoying the intake!
Waiting for the ECU to be unlocked, I not a piggyback enthusiast.
Also have had the front cross member upgrade, that is definitely worth it, as the handling is improved.
Your videos are great. Very informative and straight to the point which most channels struggle to do. The charts and sound comparisons etc are great too. Keep up the good work 👍🏼
Thank you for watching and the kind words!! We'll keep on getting this kinda content out!
better to use stock system and just connect a hose from your cabin AC under dash box to your air engine intakes before the filters of course for a true cold air intake...cheaper too
i think you have spent too much time on the internet
Always interested in Golf R mods, and you are my go to YT channel 👍 like the looks, sound and performance gains of the R600. . .in terms of general in-gear sound for longer runs at relatively low revs (say 2500 -4000 rpm), would be interested to hear your view whether there is much increase in cabin noise over stock? 😎
Thanks for watching and your kind words!! There certainly is a big improvement in sound, you can hear the turbo sounds much more clearly! We love it.
i may try retrofitting this in my 1.5 tsi.
Good luck!
Did you try it? :)
Would love to see how it goes on the T-Roc R too if you can get your hands on one.
Lets do it!
Let me know🤣. Need some tips too
As always, great work. 👌
Thanks Ben!
Would like to see the Tiguan R done.
Nice! We would love to do one
Would the gains be higher if you compared a remap+stock intake vs a remap+R600..?
Only one way to find out
@@RegalAutosport Will you do a video on this? cheers
Nice! :), might be my first step ;)
Definitely recommended!
Do you have the link for the hose and the elbow can’t find them together anywhere ! (USA) awesome video !
For USA, please contact RacingLine for a purchase contact.
Hi beautiful channel. The upgrade is 8hp or 18hp? Sorry form my question…. Do you have tested Also the Muffler? Best regards. Dave
Thank you for your kind words! 8HP on this intake. We have another video showing the exhaust, we don't expect any change in output from the cat-back portion only. The downpipe would yield more power!
@@RegalAutosportThanks a lot. Is good on this car only r600 plus Remap? Best regards
So I'm curious. Did this trip any check engine lights or is it plug and play and the car figures it out?
no check engine lights
I thought Jack Harlow got into modifying cars for a sec there 😂
eyyuppp!
The foam filter of the R600 is oiled.
Can this harm the engine? (intake path)
In the old days, the reason why you didn't really want to use an oiled filter is due to contamination of the MAF sensor. Most modern cars do not use MAF sensors, and specifically this platform does not. So its a non-issue.
Thanks for the info. Great video. The forge in take hose and r600 together will be a better combo?
No problem! Glad you enjoyed it, why do you think it will be a better combo?
@@RegalAutosportthe test you did on the hose alone did good power gains throughout. Also the forge hose is bigger in diameter?
Thought the thumb nail was jack Harlow
hahaha!
Does this fit mk7 and mk8? Thanks
Yes this fits both MK7, and MK8. You can order here: shop.regalautosport.com/collections/racingline-performance/products/racingline-mqb-evo-r600-intake-html?_pos=4&_sid=b6410dd54&_ss=r
Is it possible to install this without the re-routing the coolant hose below the intake?
Possibly, but we prefer to re-route to improve the engine bay aesthetic
@@RegalAutosport I can confirm that the R600 intake can be installed without removing the coolant hose. However, as you mention, the engine bay would look cleaner with the reroute.
How much it costs the complete R600 kit? Where to install it in Madrid (Spain) Thanks

does the intake system come with coolant hose and intake hoses??
It does not, these items are extra
So You need to buy separately all of those parts so intake, intake pipe and elbow? Or everything is included into the set?
Hey! Thanks for watching, the R600 intake is one part, then the hose and intake elbow come as one part.
Thanks for info, i track my car so it seems pretty good gain without adding additional stress on the engine. I think around 20HP in high range rpm is great result and might be significant performance increase on track while leaving ret of the engine stock.
What about Racing Line Shocks? Do you know anything about their performance?
We have not tried them!
R600 vs Eventuri? Any power gains or just better looks?
Eventuri ticks all the boxes, R600 also ticks some boxes apart from the carbon look.
@@RegalAutosport Racing Line have on their website, have a matte or gloss carbon option for an extra $360. Still about half the cost of the Eventuri setup and I would wager at that point, you're just paying for the Eventuri name. Maybe the Eventuri comes into it's own with a bigger turbo but since no one has gone big turbo on a MK8 and done intake comparisons, there's no way to know.
Ah! I forgot that, then yes! r600 can give you the carbon look with the lid.
Did you have to cut the OE coolant hose off before putting on the Racingline one?
Nope
Was the golf r stock when doing the dyno?
Yes
@@RegalAutosport damn, so the R600 had more gains then the eventuri
What wheels are they??? 😍😍
Checkout previous videos for specs
Nice comparison. Do you think an eventuri is worth the extra £££ comparing it to the r600?
Thank you! It depends really, aesthetically they are very different. It's down to personal preference, just like exhaust systems! They both provide tangible gains.
@@RegalAutosport I just love the look of eventuri, and think it sounds better than the r600, even if it is more expensive. But I know what you mean akrapovic v Milltek, all down to price. Decisions, decisions 🤔
I want to know this too, what sounds better? This or the Eventuri intake? You have done both so would love your opinion on it - to be honest here, I want this upgrade for the sound!
hey man , i'm looking to buy a intake kit for 8R i see that you got more power than eventuri with the racingline or am i wrong ?
Thanks for the comment, in our tests, the Eventuri is the best intake for this platform. The RacingLine is the next best for sure, and one for the more budget conscious that wants an improvement in power!
How much would this cost to get fitted on my mk8 golf r with you guys ?

Does it need a tune (remap) after fitting the intake?
It does not
Doesnt it run lean with the extra air??? @@RegalAutosport
Is this the mk7.5 racingline coolant hose ?
I believe it is different
More HP lower NM why? NM is import to
eh? did we watch the same video
I noticed it too, it went from 336 bhp/443 nM to 342 bhp/421 nM... unless there's a typo at 5:28, it shows a 6 hp gain but a 22 nM loss
Great video, and very informative. Please stop saying "erm" though.
Make me
@RegalAutosport 😂😂😂
Should of said 'ermmm make me'
skip the first 1:10!
ha!
WHY are there no WHEEEEEEEL horsepower read outs ever ? Is this perhaps a European thing ??
You asked a question and answered it, well done
Lol.
Its certainly a UK thing . All we know .😂
still aint cracked these yet?
We are not ECU cracking people, that is either for companies to fughazi or the legit ECU programming tool companies to crack.
@@RegalAutosport oh yeah i hear you fair play
