Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before. We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

    Hi guys

    Looking for info on new Golf R, tuning options, aftermarket wheels, exhaust and mainly retrofitting the larger 8" screen which i want to do immediately

    Currently have a 500awkw R35 GTR built by Willall Racing and a 300awkw Evo X built by RoadTrackRally, both on E85 with FBO's, high flowed turbo, larger coolers, and dodson built trans

    Plan for the R is to keep it mild for the daily drive - tune, muffler swap and that's about it

    Cheers
    Sam

    As for tunes, they're just starting to come out for the R now. APR have just released their stage 1 tune, and a few others have released tuning boxes.
