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,

    That is something I would do to an old Cordia or something!
    Haha!!!! But I'm sure part of you still want to give it a try! It's really easy to do (and remove). I don't see how having an extra tailpipe open all the time will be bad as well.....more flow = smoother power delivery?

    My only concern is will kinking the actuator tube thing cause it to spoil?

      Correct, it's only a feature of the R.

        This is a symptom of insufficient throttle usage....

                • You've only posted APR without exhaust dyno logs.

                    • Bizzare exhaust design in the ass end...

                      • Is that a new downpipe as well? If so - are the dyno graphs with it still on Stage 1 software, or upgraded to stage 2?

                        It seems to increase the top-end a bit, but not much else. No torque increases lower down as would be expected from downpipe/Stage 2.

                        • Beena, he needs the HPFP it will change a bit more with that..

                          It looks like it is overboosting though..

                            and can you get an Evoms intake while your at it. I want to see how it compares to Fab_R's, same car, different exhaust and one is manual one is DSG. This will be interesting

                                Different dyno's though, cant be compared.
