    You mentioned things that usually don't get talked about very much except for tuning. I liked it.

    Most essential mod imo is definitely a front brake kit upgrade. I had an AP Racing 4 pot kit added to mine and it transformed the car. Stability under hard braking was immense, zero sponginess, no fading, perfect balance for road or trackdays. And they really looked the part

      Exactly .Brakes 1st power 2nd. I bought brand new Cayman calipers with zimmermann discs Hel lines Textar pads Not as expensive as AP but stopping power in abundance
      Looking to changing rears to TRW 951/2 (r32 ones) in red

    Stage 1 not so expensive if you think about it. Gaining 50hp for 550 pounds makes much more sense than 200 pounds for whoosh sound on lift off.

    DO NOT PUT A DUMP VALVE ON A TFSI
    very misleading info you should use a diverter valve either oem or gfb dv+

      @@mofuchimumbwa2176 TFSI use a Mass Air Flow Sensor, al the air that comes pass it is calculated. When using a bov or dump valve you will be running rich. The later TSI use a map sensor so using a dump vavle on them is no problem.
      With that said plenty of guys run dump vavles on fsi and most tuners even have tunes for bovs on fsi.

    I think the wheels everyone keeps asking about are "3SDM 0.01 Alloy Wheels" which are out of stock and quite expensive , there is also a cheaper copy made by AVA called the Phoenix.

    • @iiReaprr
      @iiReaprr Před 5 lety +1

      Alex i would recommend just going for stage 2. Also it could be the tune itself.

    • @georgewilson6232
      @georgewilson6232 Před 5 lety +1

      Stage one isn't enough torque to worry about that, they can take up to like 450hp with no issues.. I would recommend a dsg tune though, it optimises shifting for the tune and raises the rpm limit

    @vancityflyguy Před 4 lety +1

    Hi, i was just wondering, how does a mkV gti compare to a 997.1 in yoir opinion? I have a gti and like it very much, but i think i’m almost at the point when i want to upgrade and a 997.1 is what i can possibly afford. The price difference between the 2 cars is pretty significant. is the porsche really worth it? Don’t get me wrong, i got the porsche bug and i absolutely love them even though i’ve never driven one. I’m just trying to justify if it’s worth paying so much money for a 13 or so year old car.
    Thanks so much

      Driver 81 pity. You should keep it, I can see the prices of these going back up again in a few years. Am in N. Ireland and noticed since I got mine the prices are going up all near 4k now. That Porsche is epic in your drive 2 lol.. Yea I also wanted a bov but all the gti owners kept telling me not to. They sound great still.. I went for a oversized ramair kit 155 quid am sure uve heard of that 1 if your on any of the gti pages

    • @alsatch_
      @alsatch_  Před 6 lety +1

      Yeah the Ramair kit is quite highly spoken of and price is quite good for the intake sound it will make. Im sure ill be back to GTI at some point.
