Been watching Darkside for a while and they do Brilliant work. Glad you took your VERY NICE TRUCK of there for Those Guys to sort the Power/Gearbox Up-Grade out. Very Nice Truck you have Buddy [Love that Rally Car Flutter].
Nice love it I think I was one of the 1st to hear it on the road as it came back the day you where all doing my led headlights abs drove pass me as I was going for a walk. ❤️👍👍
Yeah I remember driving passed you as you pointed and smile :) The villagers will be complaining again about the noise!!! They hated my TSI and even sent a threatening about it! haha
@@THQAutomotive it was so cool 😎 man. No way. I will have to bring our SQ7 up next time they can complain about that. And once again thank you all so much for the great work and making me feel so welcome and looked after ❤️👍
I’ve just got the same truck ,so I’m wondering how much would that cost a normal customer for 3 days labour + parts ….. I’m guessing 2.5k ish I’m a bricklayer actually using it for carrying heavy loads. My next question is for a suspension upgrade … what you’d recommend and cost?
Hi been eagerly waiting for the after market led headlights for the t6.1 what’s happening with them ? The date keeps moving forward? When we likely to see them and buy em? Cheers
@@THQAutomotive ok Kool will be waitin for them hopefully you got my money, there’s another chap doing them verturra lighting or something but can’t seem to come to terms in buying from them, he only offering 6 month warranty and they use your lights to modify them.

At Last... more juice under your right foot !💪👌 I've always wanted to ask VW what they were thinking when they put such a wimp under the bonnet of a van🤔🙈 Some kind of bad joke ? What can you seriously carry in the back, helium filled balloons???? THQ Europe goes to the Netherlands? I was hoping you would come to Germany 😥 Wouldn't surprise me if the German TÜV scared you off 🙈😱😂 Keep up the good work 👌👍
😂😂 yeah 85bhp was pretty pointless. This can carry lots of weight if we wanted to. The air suspension can easy take its maximum laden weight. We have friends in the Netherlands who are already Transporter enthusiasts so it was the best place for us. Yes TÜV would put me off German. We wouldn’t get away with half the stuff we do there 🤭
@@THQAutomotive Yes,the weight is definitely not a problem now, for that wimp turned beast... it gets interesting when you load up and try to pull off with 85 HP 🙈😂😂😂😂 They probably thought it would be funny 🤔😫😂 So,THQ goes continental, means LHD headlights too, i guess 😜👍 The ones I find here aren't really convincing, and I'm not sure if they're even European. Will THQ Netherlands be offering the same service as you do in the UK, or just deal with the parts ? If you need help on the German side, I would be happy to help you out. I'm half German, and a mechanic, so I know my way around the technical side in both languages. Looking forward to new footage 👍,best wishes, Rob
@@ert2203 This is very true! It'll never carry weight anyway. Its just to pretty for that! haha Yes 100% LHD lights are on the way. We'll be supplying and fitting from the Netherlands.
Yeah as Ryan said, there mirrors came as standard on this vehicle. People have asked us why we’ve not swapped them for regular mirror but we really like these. Especially with the commercial look.
Love Darkside. Not done business with them but it's a great channel for anyone not familiar with them. 👍 Darkside for mechanical upgrades and turbos and Revo for remapping perhaps?
@@mandismith89 I agree but THQ already have a business relationship with Revo as they feature in a number of previous videos. Was trying to suggest multiple suppliers rather than dumping Revo in favour of Darkside. My personal preference would always be DD. Talented engineers and appear very ethical. ,😀👍
Best tuner in uk in my opinion wouldn't use anyone else !!!! Revo couldn't wipe there arse !!

Thank you. Yes we're big fans of darkside
Love the turbo flutter 😍 awesome video as always! Been a while
We’ll try and get some more out, we’ve just been so busy.
I like it. Would be more fun going the offroad approach, but still cool
Can’t wait to see it at camper mart ✌🏻👍🏻
It’s there with Josh. Pop over and say Hi 😊
Really interesting. Some idea of cost for the engine mods would be good 👍
Speak to the guys at Darkside Development’s. I’m not actually sure what their charge for this job is.
@@THQAutomotive you don't know how much they were paid for it or...?
Nice love it I think I was one of the 1st to hear it on the road as it came back the day you where all doing my led headlights abs drove pass me as I was going for a walk. ❤️👍👍

Love it 😍
So do we. I actually want to drive it now. Before it looked awesome, but i hated driving it.
Love ya work transporter hq and dark side!!!!!!!!
Thanks as always 🙏
Really nice work. From which car are these knobs for the heating and ventilation. Locks nice instead of the original ones.
Another great video but it’s been too long where is the caddy I’ve been waiting and waiting and waiting👌👌👌👍👍👍
It’s sitting on development Solow Suspension and we’re waiting on some body styling we’ve been designing
I’ve just got the same truck ,so I’m wondering how much would that cost a normal customer for 3 days labour + parts ….. I’m guessing 2.5k ish

What a beast
Totally! Such a transformation. I love this thing so much now.
awesome 👌🤙
Thank you 😊
I need that turbo sound!
Lush isn’t it
Never seen this guy without a cap on, 🤣 Great work THQ.
There is a very good reason for that… 👴🏻😂
To compliment that interior,, could I suggest perhaps getting the seat belts redone in the pink🧘🏼♂️
It’s not pink, it’s salmon 🍣 😂
@@THQAutomotive I like salmon 🤣
what infotainment system do you have installed?
Alpine Halo 9
Hi been eagerly waiting for the after market led headlights for the t6.1 what’s happening with them ? The date keeps moving forward? When we likely to see them and buy em? Cheers
When we are happy with them. I hope before the end of the year but they need to be 100% right before we'll release them.
@@THQAutomotive do you have an image of them them to what they will look like?
@@guvnor0011 No sorry, last time I need that, another company copied my design exactly. We want to wait until they are ready
@@THQAutomotive ok Kool will be waitin for them hopefully you got my money, there’s another chap doing them verturra lighting or something but can’t seem to come to terms in buying from them, he only offering 6 month warranty and they use your lights to modify them.
I spot the transporter yesterday in the Netherlands. Why is it here?
For the launch of transporterhq.eu based in The Hague
Is it BRS engine code engine!? did Darkside supply and fit 6 speed box too?
I actually don’t know which engine code it is, Darkside will know. Yes the supplied and installed the 6 speed box.
Very nice, what’s the damage to get it to that power level?
I don’t know actually. Drop darkside a message.
@@THQAutomotive well have to ask them, interested to know more, thanks
@@THQAutomotive how do you not know how much was paid...?
@@RWL2012 no I don’t know how much they normally charge
Is the dmf the weak point in the 5 speed?
Yes and the box itself
and the gearbox, its cant handle much over 140 and most tuners tune the torque too aggressive
Hey Andy, what front splitter have you got on the flat bed? Struggling to find one for the T6.1!
Hello, its this one :) transporterhq.co.uk/vw-transporter-parts-styling-accessories/vw-t5-t6-exterior-styling/t6-1-spoilers-20/vw-t6-1-lower-splitter-for-t6-1-standard-bumper-with-fixings-mb/
Just subbed to you, is so badass (I don’t say sick 😂)
Edit: I thought it only had 1 side exit
Thanks, no twin exit, one each side 😊
@@THQAutomotive Credit where credit’s due, it’s an awesome looking piece of kit….. individual !!
Edit: And that turbo flutter sounds brilliant
Beaut! The 'ALL SHOW & NO GO!' label has been removed!
Hows the Crafter coming man?
Its being started, and finished in November / December
@@THQAutomotive look forward to seeing it!

Any updates on the Tesla Transporter?
Yeah it’s currently having a test frame built for the batteries and motors.
@@THQAutomotive shit yeah can’t wait!!
@@HotPlates. I promise it’ll be worth the wait.
Why was it so down on power ?
Older injectors / turbo etc.
Random Q, but can anyone tell me what wing mirrors are fitted?
Those are stock chassis cab mirrors
Yeah as Ryan said, there mirrors came as standard on this vehicle. People have asked us why we’ve not swapped them for regular mirror but we really like these. Especially with the commercial look.
@@THQAutomotive definitely keepers 😎
What engine is it?
Standard 1.9tdi
@@zed5509 thanks 😊
@@THQAutomotive👋 which turbo?
Love Darkside. Not done business with them but it's a great channel for anyone not familiar with them. 👍
