Mr Lakay you really bump up the content with this one I really enjoyed this video,the sound of those throttles gives me shivers, Respect to your my brother keep up the good work...👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👌
@@heinrichdire8020 Glad you enjoyed it. 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
I was gna say, this video.. 👌👌👌
Top notch bro!!
The sound of that itb's on surround sound... 👌👌👌
@@ridaasauls8600 Thank you so much. 🙌🏽
This is probably he best Moto vlogger in SA. This deserves WAY more views!
@@harlfonzogoodman187 Appreciate it. The views will come. I'm Just glad that those who see it, enjoy it. 🙌🏽
Loved the footage and i really enjoyed the drive with you LL. The camera placements were perfect. It felt as if I was in the car with you. Your car sounds amazing and for a four cylinder, I can tell you, those guys would think twice about taking you on around a bendy and winding road because your car seems to handle really well and the power distribution to your wheels seems impeccable. Thanks for the great footage, I really enjoyed it.
@@grantfredericks62 I'm glad the camera angles did that for you. I just need to secure it a bit better next time. And the Mk2 did really well, I thought I might slow those guys down.
Nice one bro , looked like a really awesome drive , 🎉🎉🎉
Chasing thise big power cars must a joy 😂
We all love a good underdog story. Haha. It was a lot of fun trying to keep up. The NA 16v put in work. I'm impressed.
By far the best car video on RUclips bro...I'll watch this over and over!!
@@dawoodmartin5464 really glad you enjoyed it 🙌🏽
Dude! What a ripper you have! Reminds me of my dads mk2 back in the day! Crazy that you guys started the run from where his shop used to be! Great driving and great content! The car sounds dope!!!
Thank you very much. Glad the Mk2 takes you back a little. 💪🏽
Loved the video bro and the 16v sounds so so good!! Little David running with the Goliaths 💪🏾
@@riyadabrahams2278 Definitely the underdog in the group but it didn't do too badly. I'm well impressed.
@@lowdl it didnt do badly at all was really quite awesone

I needed to get back to that. Really missed it. Leah 2.0 putting in work. 😅
motor is soooo well built, must be worth every headache/penny
@@varaszntv9157 It handles absolute punishment. 😆 I'm so chuffed with it.
man your car sounds so good
@@theplaybook3597 Thank you 😬
Bro big ups...the symphony coming from your throttles in this vid has just made me miss my NA build...ek soek somma nou weer een.....lmao
@@myseedrcc3306 🤣 Itbs ftw. But this is exactly what I wanted from this car. The sound is too good.
This GTI is very Kwaaai! moer nice sound
@@leehaloover2810 haha. Thanks. Glad you like it.
Brooo this video is giving forza 😭😭😍
@@spotz.media1 😅 that's pretty cool.
Bro would love to join you on these drives again. Let me know when you go again bro. Awesome content as always!
@@evanwdamon We need to make a plan to drive together again. It's been too long. But more mountain runs coming soon for sure.
Taking that E90 M3 all day ✨️
@@nashalexander3873 100%. E90 ftw.
Lekker mahn mr lakey , all cars sounding great and looking fabulous, your car sounds the best mahn there's just something about that itbs sound , i hope one day to get a experience in this build bc this car moves 🫢 ❤️🔥🔥
Really appreciate it. 🙏🏽
Oukaapse weg is such a beautiful mountain... If you don't use it everyday going to work 😂 you should do this next time with the big boy MK2 😈
@@keelinrossouw2635 the big boy Mk2 needs a little love before I can do this. But it's the plan. 💪🏽
Man the mk2 at full tilt on the open road sounds amazing 😂❤❤❤❤
And the E90/92 on decel/rev-match😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
@@teamphashash WOT me now 😅 It does sound good.
@@lowdl I remember saying you shouldn't worry about dyno numbers and enjoy the car. Really makes me happy to see you enjoying it on and off the track. You living the life bro😂
@@teamphashash I'm getting my money's worth 🤣 Using all 133kw. Haha.
I think I must return to CapeTown..... anyway. Lekker vid, car sounds strong! Franschoek or Baviaans bends next?
@@dalesmit7869 Franschhoek is on the cards for sure. Not too sure when but it's coming. 💪🏽
Great video you should arrange a mountains pass run for your followers I’m sure there are many keen ones to join on this!!
@@ameervanwyk5227 I've actually had a few guys join before. I had them DM me if they were serious and we did Clarence drive. (Needs a better system) I will probably start doing it again after winter. During winter you start way too late so it's not as much fun, too many cars on the road.
in my modified 1.6 citi sonic with 40mm sidies i was doing 110km at that bend video 4m14 sec mark in the rain and feathereing the traction manually lol
It's a good bend. But at 110km/h in the rain it's a ballsy move. Haha.
@@lowdl i failed to mention this was in my 20's many moons ago ha ha ha ha i am definitely not brave enough todo that today ha ha ha also it was not 110 but felt like it . Was around 85 and pushing 90 could feel traction loosing grip lol
@@0Alchemist In our 20's we had all the courage. I used to do the dumbest things and barely survive. Lol. I lost it in the rain in a very expensive car and since then I've become super paranoid in the rain. I'd like to do a wet track day to build up confidence again.
mia the 16valve running with them big boys like my daddy did bring to play coz big sis was gone be to much for yall🤣🤣🤣
@@darrenpretorius8089 🤣🤣🤣 that's funny.
Its impressive how the the 16v keeps up👏
I wonder how the 20v would handle 🙆
@@Menner_Dee It doesn't handle well but I'm going to get that sorted. I want to take it on track sometime as well. Killarney is a power track.
bru flippen lekker mahn lol , you need a lekker m3 next lol
Haha, would be nice. One day when I'm big 😅
that 16v is fast
@@kylieboi01 😅 thank you. It goes alright.
You should've had your turbo mk2 on this run😢would've been very interesting to see
@@khalidvanwyk6149 It would have been interesting for you guys to see. I've raced a C63, E92 and E46 on the road before, Leah just pulls away from them.
Bra, up to where do you rev your VW? And what size throttle bodies do you have on?
@@phillipshepherd1465 I rev it to 7100. 43mm itbs.
@@lowdl perfect match for 2l 16v. Then you need 225 - 250cc fine ionising injectors. And don't polish intake ports. But do polish outlet ports. Don't use a skimmed flywheel but a standard flywheel for beter torque in higher gears. Also only use a VW original flywheel, the others disintegrates, eventually. Trust me. The alternator must be ether a 45 amp or 55amp alternator , Bosch. The others can't handle the rpm. Only short blocks can rev past 6600 rpm.
I didn't like throttle bodies as they struggle at low rpm to get wind speed correct. So I put my old intakes back, I blancked of the common rail enrichment bar on the intakes with cable joint resin and removed the common rail bulges on the inside to equalise the volume. Don't polish it just remove the bulges of the common rail. Then u have a true plemiam that sorts your back pulsing out perfectly. My throttle was 2 butterfly tipe standard.
I made 137 KW on flywheel on a load Dina. I reved to 7400rpm (valve bounce)
Your motor sounds very good.
My compression was 1140 -1100. Motor was completely standard. An import from Germany. They come standard with long duration highlight cams. I had a 4into 2 into 1 branch on with 76mm stainless 2 box exhaust.freeflow. I used real superboss injectors. Partial sequential (1&4;2&3cylinders) used a gotech management. Used the original high pressure fuel pump with pressure set at 4 bar with vacuum control. Used the standard 16v coil as it is already high voltage. I used the golfwagen modular as they don't have a govener. Don't use the square high voltage coils when you loose a spark plug the coil blows. Don't use the rotor with the resistor in it. Only use original plug cables. I used a cone filter washable. Don't forget to oil it. My lead inlet pipe was exactly 2liter. Bought at Midas and cut to length. With breather on. Very important.
Used the standard mechanical injection rubber to connect to throttle body. Don't use map only but add a lambda sponsor also. If you don't u will over fuel and hydralicate the motor should your vacume pipe block or get off. Also use golf 3 throttle body as they come standard with a tps. I had a 9a 16valve motor.
By the sound of your motor you have a screamer branch on? 4 into 1 branch
@@phillipshepherd1465 It's actually a 4-2-1. I wanted a 4-1 for it but this works for now.
@@lowdl keep the 4into 2into 1 they are more drivable and your back pulsing is way better than a 4into 1. Used a stainless snorcall connector not a knuckle for the torque flex of the motor. Your front body mounting will break after about every 40000 km. Be mindful of that.
Also don't match port your branch with your head you shall loose power. The top offset is by design and must stay that way for your back pulsing of exhaust gases. But do polish your outlet ports to reduse carbone buildup and enhance flow. Don't polish your inlet port because your injectors is to far from your valves and use fine ionising injectors to better your air fuel mixture. Don't change your valve angles they are the best standard. And that is how I made 137kw on flywheel. And don't use a lightened flywheel. You will loose a ton of torque from 3rd gear up.
My bru how much petrol u throu in joh was leka video but to keep u nice
Went to half tank and only used 1/4. So not too bad.
And motor is it 9a or abf?
Short block or tall block?
@@phillipshepherd1465 it's a 9a head with a 2e tall block. So a Franken ABF.
@@lowdl it's the first tall block motor that rev7100 that lasts that I know of. Congratulations. I'm impressed.
@@phillipshepherd1465 tall blocks are better for high rpm. I had a 9a with 288 cams 11.5-1 compression 8000 rpm switched to a ABA tall block and it was better. It also had less wear on the piston skirts due to improved rod angle.
I missed the turbo 16v in this video🎉❤
Nice to watch as always
@@user-fm1tc3oq1x Glad you enjoyed it. 💪🏽 I don't have a turbo 16v, are you talking about my dad's car?
@@lowdl yes that's the one
@@user-fm1tc3oq1x Okay cool. He wouldn't bring it out for runs like this. He would bring out his Mini. The 16vt is setup for drags with the tyre and suspension setup. It would rub around to tight turns.
@@lowdl Okay I understand you
It would've been great to see how it's performs against those in line 6's and V8's but awesome video
Yo Mr Lakay nice video brother.
I also have a 16v. When I drive hard it pushes the oil into the catch can.
Any advice on how to fix that problem?
Thanks
@@uzairthomason2337 Do you have a windage tray in it? That made all the difference for me. This thing used to breathe like crazy before we fit that.
@lowdl I will have to check. I just bought the car 3 weeks ago.
So, the windage tray is the solution?
Thanks
@@uzairthomason2337 If it's got a windage tray in there, then your rings are gone. Does it smoke?
@lowdl there's no windage tray in.
No the car doesn't smoke.
Is the windage tray only for the sump?
Should I add another breather to the tappet cover? Will that also work with having the windage tray in
Dig the channel but this sort of driving in public is reckless and not ok. Bruh it's not going to be fun if someone is seriously harmed in the process. There are families out here. Just something to think about.
I appreciate the feedback.
@@lowdl shot. Onwards and upwards 👌
