I always find myself coming back to this video
Again lol
Same as me sir
Again
I owned a flashed 08 GTI for about 5 years. Wasn't nearly as powerful as this. Stage 2 REVO tune, downpipe, cat-back exhaust, and upgraded the suspension. But let me just say, that was one of my favorite cars. I paid it off with only about 50K miles on it, sold it for a good price and immediately regretted it. I loved the car. Such a comfortable and pleasurable car to drive. Awesome daily driver and for the price of a ECU tune and an exhaust system, it was approaching nearly 300whp with nothing done to the motor or the tiny K03 turbo. That tiny little turbo provided instantaneous torque.
Those borgwarner turbos are efficient as fuck mate. Ko3, ko4 ♥️
I love my mk6 golf R, I’m apr stage 3 apr 3” catless downpipe, IE cold air intake, full apr valvetronic exhaust, map 4 allows me to run 100 octane but I stay away from it, most it ran on the Dyno was 395 to the wheel. Its unreal
The intro was hilarious watching this 6 years later as a GTA resident. Rip Rob Ford.
Finally. More tuned! Please have more, and I ask more than 10 videos this year pleaseeee.
I think I need to upgrade...
+Aye Baws AR12 Golf GT-R confirmed? Love ur vids by the way.
+AR12Gaming do a wheelie tune on it
I love HPA but single turbo self built kits are cheaper to build and make 😉
+AR12Gaming why...just boost yours and boar it out to 3.3 or get the 3.6 and boost it. :)
+TriFire ayyyyyyy
thank god tuned is back
Downside 3: they left the stick-shift brake pedal in😂 but on the real that car is a monster. I couldnt believe my ears when he said 2.8 second 0-60 and 200mph top speed. Bravo HPA, bravo
More episodes like this please! Thanks!
+Jimmy H What, putting it in D? :-/
I'm falling back in love with /Drive again.
That thing looks fun
The production of the new /Drive videos is absolutely gorgeous!
As the proud owner of a MK4 VW GTI w/ a 2.8L 24v VR6 in it, I absolutely LOVE the fact that they ripped the 2.0L direct injection turbocharged engine out of it and threw in a boosted 3.6L 24v VR6.. It’s just one more example showing what a badass platform the VR6 is...
Could have been the ultimate sleeper if this car looked like an ordinary stock Golf😬
I think with 740hp it's still a sleeper :D
Peter Zwart Ok the stickers should be removed maybe :D
by Light Never underestimate!
exactly my thoughts! remove all the stickers, paint the hood the same color and put stock wheels in!
ew sleepers
That thing must be a nightmare to maintain..... even as a twin-turbo V6 Audi owner, I can only image.
I totally understand the RUclips profit margins might not be worth it, but I definitely miss these full feature length pieces. Keep up the great work, bro!
Film mid last year I think I remember when Matt drove a Golf R32 with 600 bhp he mentioned this car. I've been waiting. Thank you for up loading this
i wonder how stoned matt is behind those glasses
I don't just want...I NEED IT!!!
Whenever I hear your exhaust for a B8 A4 2.0 I feel the same way.
you need a 2015 civic si exhaust ;-;
I first heard about HPA from GT4 with that mental Golf R32. They do incredible things.
That is an awesome car. I'm not a fan of DCT's nor am I a fan of VW's, but this is a fantastic car and I'd own it as a one-and-only car in a heart-beat. It looks like they really did a good job of making this car a jack-of-all-trades-master-of-all type setup. From a car you can take on a road trip to a car you can take to the track. Massive props to these guys - I can only imagine how much this whole setup cost...
This is like the fruition of that crazy W12 powered Golf that Jeremy drove on Top Gear except this one actually works.
You know it's good when Matt giggles like a little school girl! Oh Canada indeed!
This is probably the fourth time I've watched this because, well, I just love this car...and the sound. With that said, I think it would be a nice touch if you utilized those sweet video mics to get that raw, spine-tingling sound from the cars you DRIVE. Food for thought - you could call it "sending off with a symphony" *queue intense throaty exhaust sounds*
About damn time this video came out...
Def insane, Matt, a great job as usual...!
this was the tits!!!! so glad to see Matt back on drive, thank you guys for everything you make and for providing us with this amazing free content!
Thanks for showcasing another HPA VW. I live mins from HPA in Langley and there are a few other great aftermarket shops in the Greater Vancouver area nice to get some recognition.
This video is fucking amazing.
Aside from weird frame rate hiccups while panning across this beast toward the end; this was a masterpiece. Thanks!
Did he just say 200mph in a golf?! Good god that must feel insane!
Probably actually feels stable and composed. hahaha
200 mph with control and finesse beautiful
Right. Not trying to be a lil baby, but, that's too much speed in a boxy, short wheelbase car.
I've done 270km/h with my mk6 2011 R... with wrong temporary wheels in the back in a trashy road.
I can tell you that this monster is stable.
I currently have a 2013 GTI with K04 and other supporting mods, and so far I have done 163 mph and the car is unbelievably stable.
holy sh*t tuned is BACK!!!!!
+Shamar White your comment should be: First !
+Shamar White It was back last week lol
Luv It! especially your giggles ones spurned on by a truly mental ride!
Matt Farah is my favorite RUclips car review guy. This video is awesome
Its the best day of the year
No
+Carl Johnson It's Wednesday, go to work.
+Carl Johnson 420
Still taking care of San Andreas with your homies?
Hitlers birthday!!! Yeeepy
Jesse don't do it! I bet he's got over a hundred grand under the hood of that car.
+Mel Laknanurak Whatever, go fetch my car!
thinking about it, its still probably cheaper than a gtr. i would much rather have this.
Karim Elshobokshy it isnt lol that is the sad thing
Not close to 100 grand no way, maybe near 50-65k at most
Hahahaha classic
Another /TUNED turbo car from Vancouver!!! So happy to see this series back!
Gosh i love refined yet fast cars.
There is a german tuning company called HGP who have tuned a golf R to 750hp, too
HGP is partners with HPA. It's probably the same package.
If you played fm2, it wasn't hard to do that with enough funds. Same holds true in this video
Another Great Job By HPA and Team!! A sheep in wolfs clothing.
Matt this one of your best reviews! Oh Canada!
That engine design is amazing
Paint the hood, remove the decals, strip the window tint and paint the wheels silver so they look like hubcaps, then go hunting.
lol, does it count as sleeper?
I don't need a sleeper, but I would still remove all of those decals
yeah and maybe go with 16's with some super sticky tires
Davelement
I was gonna say smaller rims but wasn't sure what would clear those brakes. Still like Matt said it just looks like a VW with nice rims.
Evil D ya good way to make money. Ultimate sleeper
downside 3, over 150k for this package.
Canadian Dollar or US Dollar?
same price as a nismo!
can probably build the 4pot to 800hp for like $20k but more lag and doesnt sound as nice.
Holy shit!
+Cazmeus i thought it was 60K?
Subscribed, because: #1) beast motor in a small car, superbly engineered, #2) Matt's legs (woof).
Yusssssss! I've been waiting for this episode!
“When the latest edition of the Golf R came out, the mark 6 platform 2012 and 2013, they went away with the 3.2 V6 engine that with have worked with for over a decade. They only put the 2 litre 4 cylinder in and for us torque is king and there is no replacement for displacement"
As nice as that sounds, the Golf R with its turbo’d 4 pot has more torque than its predecessor the R32 ….
Golf R32, 3.2 V6 (2008):
Torque 320 Nm 236 lb-ft
Golf R, 2.0 4 cylinder turbo (2012):
Torque 350 Nm 258 lb-ft
350>320
+Big Ron This may be true, but its alot "easier" to get 700hp out of a 3.6 than a 2.0, and still make it reliable.
They used a 3.6L VR6, not the 3.2L VR6 that came in the R32. A 3.6L VR6 makes 385 Nm (284 lb-ft.)
385 > 350
Remove gaudy stickers, put chrome VW badges back on, paint the hood same red body color, and it'd look dope AF.
Don't know what gaudy really means do ya ?
Holy fuck, a 200+mph Golf. What a time to be alive
This makes my gtx30 mk6 gti seem like nothing now.
This is awesome, good job guys.
HGP in Germany makes the same as you guys....great work!
Die Bausätze kommen von HGP Turbo aus Deutschland. ;-)
That is not true. HPA makes the same as HGP. Everthing that engine has comes from Germany and HGP!!!
Yep, HPA and HGP are partners. I believe HGP does all the R&D.
You know I have a 1985 golf diesel and it only has 52 hp. (My daily gas saver/fun car) and it does 0-60 as fast as this thing does 0-190...ouch haha
+trollArceStaff wii ; It would be a hot rod in the 1920's.
dont think so
RIP Rob Ford. Reminding those of us that are a little troubled, greatness is still possible.
Matt's reaction at the end of the video when he launched it was hilarious!
Suddenly my mk4 1.8t just ain't doing it....
The mk4 ain't been doing it for years now.
I mean my vr6 was awesome after I turbocharged it. My 1.8t on the other hand, is garbage. 300hp on basic tuning, but from what I've seen 400hp would burn a hole in my wallet. And the mk4 isn't even a good cornering car either to make up for its lack of power.
These new tsi's are pretty crazy. At least in the Audi. 500hp on stock everything. They just love boost.
@@fukkinkana Can approve that with my GTI Clubsport MK7 (seen at my channel) same engine, same turbo (stock) No 4WD but sends 100% power to front, have lighter chassis than Golf R. More nimble, Downforce on front fenders & back wings & made for the track.. Check my lil show video! 👍
They’ve always been S***
@@tredfxman front wheel drive is whack dude..understeer like a shopping trolley
Happy 420 guys
Salute to you as well sir
thx u 2
+AndreiCarmona Carmona You americans smoke a lot lol
+A. RG its 4/20 everyday
+Jonathan Camacho Glad it's not here.
How convenient this video comes just about when I'm nerding on the golf r and thinking about buying one. Great production, Matt is da man! 😄
I'll get a golf for sure, only question is whether the gti is enough or if the r is overkill. I've heard both from owners and reviews that even the regular golf tfsi is pretty good fun. So in other words I am super confused, I am afraid that the running cost and reliability will have to decide in the end, because it'll be a daily after all to replace my c class.
Lost me at automatic, but that intro was priceless. Good work as always, Matt.
+mojostevo For high power, it's easier than a huge clutch, or so I heard about one of those mclaren or ferrarri cars.
Wait just a fucking second... did he just say that this GOLF weighs 3600lbs!!!??? HOLY FUCK!!!
Farah giggling like a school girl. That's a damn good sign.
Can never get tired of the Wookie growl coming from the VR6!
ive watched enough of matt to gather all the information of the video, from his laugh of the first pull in a car.
What the fuck man, who buys a DSG car with no paddle shifts...
+Demetris M yep, at least on perfomance cars its stupid
+Demetris M golf r's in north america only came with manuals, this car was converted to dsg
+Demetris M Maybe he really loves manuals so wanted to at least have to take his hand off the wheel to shift?
S Miller Well...why not manual then?
***** He spent that much money to make this car, why not spend a few more bucks to get a steering wheel with paddle shifts? It's only because he doesn't like them as the narrator said.
***** I'm not sure but probably they couldn't find a manual box to handle the power and fit in the car so they went for a VAG Audi TTRS DSG.
I'll take one in a nice tame grey color with no extra stickers or anything to give it away.
+Justin Updyke And the base model bodykit
Finally. Some good content
my word what a great car and a great video!
Engine powered by facebook.com/HGPturbo✌🏼️😉
"harness the power and torque of the v6." not something you hear everyday
Gotta live that skyline life A 3.6L 24v VR6 is far from your everyday V6.
i love matt. I'm glad tuned is back. this is my favorite segment. Spinelli is also awesome. Though I miss his hair. I recently cut mine too.
Spinelli's hair. Matt doesn't and hasn't had hair in a while...
Can you guys please start producing your videos in 1080p 60fps or better? Love this channel!
that exhaust does not do the engine justice.
+headcoatee thats what I was thinking, I could barely hear the damn thing
How is this different to the HGP Golf R?
Very similar, HPA & HGP are partners
E Avila got it.
+E Avila (R32vdubb) they are no partners HPA simple sells HGP parts under their name... the HGP 3.6l exist since years... many years HPA sold HGP parts and did not even change the HGP logo, btw HGP offer the Golf 3.6l twinturbo since 2007
So ist es, aber die Entwicklung macht Herr Gräf der Firma HGP Turbo in Deutschland.
nagmashot HPA has been doing Twin turbos since 2003! With the MKIV R32.. thanks to the help from HGP
FINALLY MATT IS BACK!
i love how quiet it is, and honestly, the auto works here. If it was all one colour, itd be the ultimate sleeper. Hell why not take the R badge off too🤣
Dear VW why didn't it come with a VRT from the factory? Seriously!!!
VR6 is not a V6. VR - Vee Reihen - translated loosely to English is - Vee InLine -. Just like an IL-6, there's only one block and one cylinder head. Each cylinder block is bored one after another at 15° for the 1st. Gen or 10.5° for the 2nd. Gen to form a V formation in the engine block. This shortened the block, crankshaft length etc. Shorter crankshaft length, therefore less bending moment vs IL-6. Like the IL-6, VR6 has 7 crank throw bearing vs 4 for any V6 engine. Like the IL-6, VR6 is even firing vs V6 that can either be even or odd firing. Only the 60° and 120° V6 have even firing. A 90° V6 with a split crank pin has even firing and 90° V6 w/o a split crank pin has odd firing.
Very well said!
"To form a V formation in the engine block"
So it's a V6. All that stuff you're saying about being similar to an I6 means nothing because in its base form the cylinders for a V and are most definitely not inline.
+TrigunX5 it is very very very Close to an inline 6.
V6 cylinder block is a V form with a valley in between. While VR6 cylinder block is staggered 6 with no valley. A V6 has two cylinder heads vs VR6 one cylinder head.
+//S POWER It's still the same argument. How do you guys look at this engine and think "this isnt a V6
Does it have a lot of similarities to an inline? Yes
Does it form a V with its cylinders? Yes
There's a reason Volkswagen calls in a VR6. It literally means V-Inline 6 cylinder. Arguing that it isn't is ridiculous.
I love that they tuned the 4 door version of the Golf.
awesome review. on point. you have included more specifics about the car in the review. how did they build it? what trials and tribulations did they ensure while building the monster
HGP build a simmilar car few years before HPA
yes they did
R36 engine right?
+dfour VR6
+nauxgnol It's been swapped to a 3.6, or the R36 as he mentioned.
Yes it's the 3.6fsi, still counts as a VR6 setup, last one they made.
+dfour Yeah after I looked into it I realized that
It's the latest and final revision of the r36 vr6 Passat engine from the 2009 Passat they don't need the 3.6 they just used it as getting more power from higher displacement means higher reliability
What a tasteful little hot rod! I wish more people made clean sleepers like this. It would be cool if VW made something this cool, but after the emissions scandal I doubt that will happen.
i love videos like this. how they explain ever mod omg love it
Although it's a great car it's not really a Golf R if you're gonna swap engine and drivetrain. It's Like putting a 383 Stroker in a Honda Fit.
Why not just build a golf R 2.0 to have insanely high horse power?
Sooner or later they're gonna have to give up on the V6 and embrace the 2 liter turbo.
"And for us, torque is king, and there's no replacement for displacement."
He literally said that it was for torque reasons. If they can make a 2 liter turbo that has the same torque curve of the V6, then they'll probably use it.
Global warming is real and companies cant sell huge 5,6,7 liter engines forever.
I have faith theyll make good 400 +hp 2 liters soon.
maybe a smaller lighter car would improve things too.... say 2600 pounds
A 2600 pound car with 400 hp would feel like a new 3700 lb. Mustang GT with 569 hp.
So theres hope
alpha rover Oh there's hope, yeah, but it just isn't possible at the moment.
edgar pierre vr6 never dies! No but on a serious note I mean 2.0l are way lighter and are quick and have a nice rumble sound inside the car but with no aftermarket exhaust it literary just sounds like air with a turbo outside of it. Now the vr6 on the other hand screams like a T-Rex trapped in a blinder a sound you just can't resist to break your neck to look. Taking away 5,6,7,8 liter cars is not going to make global warming any slower
Remove all the ugly striping on the sides and bs like that and make it clean!
+toompie69 I agree if it was a customer car - the stickers alone scream goulash ricer - but I guess they have to consider marketing.
+Matthew Sharpe exactly. the sticcers mean something. can't just see them and automatically think riceroni
DalexDorchester Watching the vid further, it is apparently a customer car... so yeah, a bit of rice with the goulash on this one. Easy fixed by peeling off the stickers and replacing the hood though.
Matthew Sharpe I look at it as this is basically a commercial for whoever built his car. Maybe races, maybe gets paid. If you don't race and your car is 150hp...then I'd say rice.
DalexDorchester true might be a sponsorship thing.
This is a bad ass Golf, and if I could afford it, i would love to have this power and drive train in an RGT Jetta. Hey Matt, have you ever checked out the Boba Motoring Golf that's been set up for drag racing? That's an insane Golf if there ever was one. I Love your commentary style bro. Keep it straight 100 always.
That is one fast lease car! Very nice job.
What exactly is a Hybrid Turbo? Is that like one of those electric fan like turbos?
+Evansmustard lol
+Evansmustard it's a silly tuner jargon for a turbo made from mixed parts.
+Evansmustard A Hybrid Turbo has a turbine generator and an air compressor.....the difference is that a normal turbo can reach almost the same rpm's as your car whereas a Hybrid Turbo can reach INSANE rpm's like 100 000 rpm for example
+Marnu Mostert bullshit m8
Anton Gilljam ***** Jup, scratch that I was wrong haha sorry guys
Nice video and nice car! Would love to race it with my 4WD BMW E30 turbo :) 800hp / 2770 lbs ;)
+nissejarnet thats crazy
Your E30 would eat this thing alive
Just check his channel. No BS there
+Harakudoshi904 nope...his e30 is a beast...
+hellisin666 only thing is it's a drag car (the one-trick pony as Matt would call it). The Golf would probably destroy it around a circuit given its much better suspension design...but that is still one beast of an E30 and indeed in a straight line I think the Golf would be in trouble.
its so good to see a car so quick without a large ass fart can. its subtle and effective
this video was the tits guys!!! please make more like this one. soundtrack and the whip was on point.
Get rid of those stickers for god sakes...
+BostonBarrry The stickers add 200hp
+Tommy1198S Your lying it's a pin stripe that produces 200hp...
+Tommy1198S Your lying it's a pin stripe that produces 200hp...

+Adam Aleem
And hockey!
shit how could I forget
+Adam Aleem and POUTINE!!
+Adam Aleem I went to Rob Ford's funeral to see if was a hoax. It's not, he's dead.
/Drive IS BACK IN FORM. THANK YOU!
Awesome build!
dude stands like a goober
Nah I'd invest that money elsewhere
What a beast of a car. I love this car.
temperature gauges on volkswagen group cars don't move from the middle unless you start seriously overheating or lose most of your coolant. They don't really show temperature, they are a sort of ok/not ok indicator. same applies to bmw. Up to 115°C they stay pinned in order not to worry your average customer... sad times
Its not a v6.
vr6
+JimmyJ2J It's a single head V6, the pistons are in a V configuration.
JimmyJ2J so it is a V6
could you guys like show the gauge , instead of yelling "ITS SO FAST !" OR "ITS OVER 9000!!!! "
Amal Vajdan somebody would go to jail
Awesome review
Can't wait to see what they develop for the 7R platform. As I understand, we're not quite at those numbers yet, still sub 600hp.. but I'm hopeful of seeing the first MK7 with 700hp!
