Thank you for thes videos
Thank you now i know how to do my downpipe.... cool! sounds great too
It was hard for me to find any info on this that was straightforward, so glad it helped! It was really loud with the decat, but I just added a OEM resonator to clean up the noise, and it's perfect!
Great vid 👍🏽
Thanks Conrad, appreciate it
Doing my mk7 first but after seeing this maybe I'll do my mk8 first.
14:01 that is the impeller wheel not the compressor wheel, otherwise informative and helpful video. Also another point, you should always remove an oxygen sensor from the harness connector, twisting it up like that is not good for the wire strands.
Yeah I mixed that up on the compressor wheel. O2 sensor was disconnected, once you get hands on these new o2 sensors you’ll realize the wires are tricky. Regardless I don’t use my o2 so dosent really matter 😅
Do you have the specifications for the bolts you need to replace?
They are all the same as the MK7. I had the repair manual at the time from a friend of mine. You can find them online. I’d have to search for them again to find them.
Did you have any issues with your alignment once everything was reassembled?
I had to get it realigned but camber was spot on. Toe wasn’t neither was caster. I also did a full springs install at the same time so probably didn’t help. Technically you should always get an alignment after dropping the subframe but subframe alone should affect camber more than other things.
Will deleting those 2 secondary cats cause a CEL? I have and s3 8y and was wondering if this is a good idea to add more sound
There’s nothing in them in North America but even if you’re in Europe those secondary cats probably wouldn’t throw a cel because there’s no o2 after them
@@VWTalk Hi, I also got a 2024 mk8. I recently picked up a full exhaust from IPE, are you saying that the car won't produce a CEL? Based off of your previous response, if you're not having a CEL with a catless downpipe then I should be fine with my high flow 200 cell race cat. Great video btw, I'll be referring to this for my install. Thanks
*edit*
Is your car tuned as well?
@@CameronHere i have a CTS turbo Evo downpipe on my 8Y S3 2022.. and it sound exactly like this
I'm hearing the performance gains aren't really worth it even tuned. I've decided to skip the DP and just get a Catback on mine. We'll see how long that lasts... I'm in a manual and on the Full Torque APR Stage 1 93 tune. To go stage 2 they only recommend doing a CAI, and Intercooler... obviously I'd also have to do my stock clutch at that point too. I'm curious how long my stock clutch will last on the current tune.
Do you know all Bolt torgue specs ?
They’re all the same as the mk7
How big is the pipe 3“-4“?
4". Big boy pipe.
I noticed you still have your engine cover, as do i on VW golf R 2024, do you know if VW finally fixed the issue?
Mine didn’t come on the car they had to warranty it
I think they did. Mine (2024 EU) also has the engine cover :)
mine came with an engine cover also. I think they fixed it for the 2024's
Yes, they have a warranty campaign for the earlier R models. They designed a new cover. It's hard back plastic with insulation underneath
r those stock taillights?
They’re OEM tails but not stock
What brand downpipe?
It’s a Trackslag downpipe
That is loud!
Yeah, it’s a bit overwhelming tbh. I’m currently investigating a s3 resonator retrofit
How it sounds while driving?
@@Mohamed-ng7gwnot bad cruising on the highway but it’s loud accelerating. I’ll post some clips soon
