Man seeing the smile on brians face after you guys plugged in the stage 2 ECU that you found made me so damn happy man, the 2step was wild and the genuine laugh and how happy he was with the car was just great
It's weird that it took this long for them to get to this point with the Mk2. I offered to write them a custom map for that ECU with all the above features a long time ago when the Mk2 was first introduced but then they got the new wiring harness and ECU and I figured they were all good to go.
Same. jimmy I've been watching you since I picked up my 240 4 years ago after my mk4 1.8t jetta auto trans bit the dust and it's been sitting in the driveway since. I've been waiting to manual swap it but I havent collected any parts yet. we demand more vw content we need more knowledge
I love 1.8Ts they're such cheap and easy power. 3 of my cars are 1.8Ts.. The old ones especially can handle a silly amount of power with just a set of forged rods.
A K03-052 will never make 250hp without some WG mods and some WMI or Ethanol. 215hp to 225hp is the upper limit on a stock K03s without any fuel additives.
The tune really seems like a eurocustoms stage 2 tune it has the 2 step it has no lift shift and it should run stable 20 psi b-hall’s diverter valve may be a little leaky it should hold it till redline
Since people were giving me thumbs ups and stuff . I just wanted to update that my son was in the NICU for 3 days total . Today we brought him home . PS thanks for love other Jimmy O fans !
9:02 It’s the Westgate and N75 boost solenoid I have a video called ” over boost fix “ It’s mainly for vw Audi 1.8 and 2.0 but it’s pretty universal over the turbo VW platforms
10:20 "oh yeah I forgot the rear left is flat too, proceeds to keep boosting! 🤣🤣🤣 I love Brian! Jimmy needs to be at around 400k-500k content is too good!!
Hit the car with steelit it’s a weldable primer. You clean and blast your surface then clean one more time and then spray the steelit and dry then apply your normal primer. It will seal your steelwork and protect from further rust.
I have to say this was a breath of fresh air and seeing Brian's grin from ear to ear brings back memories of a time when you all were just having fun with no time crunches to get a job done. I know how you all give yourself goals to meet but sometimes a fun time breaks the pressure you put on yourself.
NOOOOO the purple was dope. It was different. Everyone has black, silver or such valve covers. The purple was a cool color contrast and looked good in the sun too
Both B's and Jimmy's reactions were so priceless. I love seeing you guys so happy! Keep up the great work and great content Also, yes Dewalt makes hand tools. I have a 120 piece set from them with all kinds of wrenches, allen keys, and all kinds of other stuff. They're suprisingly good quality and come with a lifetime warranty!
So fucking stoked on this build! I've been building vws since I was 12 with my neighbors. Haven't touched one in a few years but this brings back so many memories of my friend Scott and me building his yellow 92 GTI 16v. Unfortunately, he passed away in 2015 making these videos hit me a bit different. I love your videos Jimbo. Keep up the great work and always cherish your friends. You never know when the last time you'll see them is.
Brian I had a vw bora aum 1.8t with audi tt 315cc injectors, n249 delete, saip delete, oil catch can, brake booster mod, arp fuel pump, r8 coil packs from ecs, 2.5" intercooler and pipe work, decat 2.5" stainless non resonate centre, custom silencer exhaust, vr6 mk3 golf maf, ram Air induction kit, turbo smart bov, replaced all the coolant plastic connectors will aluminium upgrades, ko3s hybrid with 360 race bearings all stock engine internals, and that ran 285 bhp for 4 years with a roof rack and tow bar tuned by devil developments in the UK she was a quick little sleeper, so that mk2 will be heaps of fun,
You have a 300zx and a VW Colorado OMG you and Tommy have all the dream cars I wanted as a kid. Did you guys ever go to the Berlin Turnpike back in the late 90's early 2000's I had a few cool cars I built and me and my friends would drive from western mass to Berlin Turnpike every weekend . It was crazy, I love CT!!!!
i start every video you post with a like because i know its going to be a good video! thank you for the content i hope to one day meet you all and shake your hand!
Guidosaur my friend had a mk2 with an original 1.8, that thing was not fast but damn she felt like a gokart on the road, way too low for its own good ofc ;D
I honestly feel bad for Travis, dude got so much hate on the old haggard videos, now days I'm sure 90% of people would rather have had him inherit the channel... Seems like a genuine typo guy.
2stepping the ko3 kills them fast tho. A good recipe on a 1.8t is k03s or k04 stage 2 ecu 007 diverter not a blow off, R8 coils 4bar fpr 3in downpipe to 2.5 back and get ready to party
i know nothing about vw's but they even have a vw car scene here in Brunswick,GA but they have been definitely growin on me. vw content would be cool af
Thing was definitely not in limp mode. Depending on what engine code he has in the golf, thats what determines how much boost the ecu is setup for. Like my stock awp in my 02 gti was around 10 to 12 psi. Others only hit about 8psi max.
Go frankenturbo, k03 exhaust housing and a k04 compressor housing. I have the twin k03/k04s on my s4 and the spool and response is unreal compared to stock k03s. If anyone needs any k03s to make em let me know, all you need is the front half for the hybrid
Like the cool vibes with you and your homies in the shop, just hate to see all your cars neglected n covered in dust. I'd love a video of you washing each one and getting those thin plastic covers to cover em up that'd be dope
I actually have a cheap set of Dewalt wrench, sockets, etc that I throw in all my cars just in case. So far they haven't been bad and I've put some real strain on the socket wrenches.

@@Pynoxim1 you do tuning for 1.8t? I have maestro on my mk4 and need help getting it tuned. Having issues
thats the magic with cars. genuine joy after getting something done again
@@beefysghost867 hit up lowlyfe tuning or cody lalonde on facebook
"I'm actually happy it was purple for this long just so I could have this moment." Jimmy O, king of optimism baby!!!
B.Hall feels 'some type of way' in this one..lmao
I am in tears with that 2 step, poor Dj😂😭
As someone who just picked up a mk4 GLI and am bringing her back to her former glory I say more VW content!
Same I just picked up a jazz blue gti follow me on ig @ rewardead I wanna follow all the 1.8t builds
Same. jimmy I've been watching you since I picked up my 240 4 years ago after my mk4 1.8t jetta auto trans bit the dust and it's been sitting in the driveway since. I've been waiting to manual swap it but I havent collected any parts yet. we demand more vw content we need more knowledge

i regret getting rid of my jetta so much, had a big ol gt28r turbski
As someone who owns a Nissan and two subarus I also vote for more vw content. 🔥🔥🔥
When your VW is in limp mode and still does burnouts 😂😂
🤣 Just a VW doing VW things
I Love that my Number plate is now on the B.Hall Hoon Machine !
1.8t's are so fun lol, stage ,2 downpipe, coils and you got 250hp in a light shoe box volkswagen
Alejo Suarez stage 2 mk5 is 280ish can’t wait to stage 2 mine
A K03-052 will never make 250hp without some WG mods and some WMI or Ethanol. 215hp to 225hp is the upper limit on a stock K03s without any fuel additives.
And here is an amazing example of how different people's dynos read. 215 - 280 hp is quite the range
always the dopest content. can't wait to see the civic with primer.
Karan Bhatia I feels that
The tune really seems like a eurocustoms stage 2 tune it has the 2 step it has no lift shift and it should run stable 20 psi b-hall’s diverter valve may be a little leaky it should hold it till redline
His rods will head out if he keeps running 20psi tho
Russ Tish no they won’t 😂 20 psi on a k03 turbo is like 4 psi in a sr20 t25 turbo it’s hair dryer the amount of cfm is a a joke
Argenis Perez true🤔
Yea I had a ko3s and it would peak at 21 around 6 grand which is basically redline and it held 16 solid
@@russtish3533 no ways. I ran mine for ages at around 20psi. 20psi on a ko3 is nothing for a 1.8T
Sitting in the hospital waiting for my baby son to be born. And this is posted . Thank you so much for helping me through this stressful time 🤙🏻🤙🏻

It’s the Westgate and N75 boost solenoid
I have a video called ” over boost fix “
It’s mainly for vw Audi 1.8 and 2.0 but it’s pretty universal over the turbo VW platforms
M&R Tuning im gonna go a step further and say it’s the combi valve/n249 valve if he deleted it
10:20 "oh yeah I forgot the rear left is flat too, proceeds to keep boosting! 🤣🤣🤣 I love Brian! Jimmy needs to be at around 400k-500k content is too good!!
That 2 Step is crazy!!! 🔥 B-Hall is the best 🔥💯
14:27 best moment yet
I fucking lost it when dj just ran for his life 💀
RGV Skater.zz 13:37
Brian was so happy when he 2 stepped it the first time xD love the energy
Hit the car with steelit it’s a weldable primer. You clean and blast your surface then clean one more time and then spray the steelit and dry then apply your normal primer. It will seal your steelwork and protect from further rust.
B Halls genuine excitement makes this video amazing!
This is one video of Jimmy’s that I will watch over and over again, this my 5th time.
I have to say this was a breath of fresh air and seeing Brian's grin from ear to ear brings back memories of a time when you all were just having fun with no time crunches to get a job done. I know how you all give yourself goals to meet but sometimes a fun time breaks the pressure you put on yourself.
9:26 I’m sure all his smoking equipment is in there 👍 I got one also 😂
Amen
I honestly didn't even notice the coils were red until jimbo put the new valve cover on. Lol. Looks slick man. I love it. 👊🤘
Yesss more VW content!
always have to visit this gem
Wild this was 3 years ago. Love watching the old videos. Been po'ed up since day one
Bypass valve on a 1,8t is the Blow off valve, which means you dont have a recirculating one and the car goes into limp mode
NOOOOO the purple was dope. It was different. Everyone has black, silver or such valve covers. The purple was a cool color contrast and looked good in the sun too
Purple was gross
You’re wrong!
Brian Hall nah. Chelsea Denofa would agree... purple all the BMW things 😂
Both B's and Jimmy's reactions were so priceless. I love seeing you guys so happy! Keep up the great work and great content
Also, yes Dewalt makes hand tools. I have a 120 piece set from them with all kinds of wrenches, allen keys, and all kinds of other stuff. They're suprisingly good quality and come with a lifetime warranty!
I need a mystery ECU in my life for sure

Never seen B laugh like that. Uncensored and gasping for air. Love it Hahahaha.

Im so fucking happy that you guys finally got a stage 2 tune in it i was smiling the entire time
7:22 dude B turned into Joe Swanson 😂😂😂😭😭 *"YOU'RE WRONG!!"*
Anyone else realize all jimmy cars are red and black I love it
I was having a bad day with everything going on but after seeing this vid my day got a lot better. Thank you guy you made my day.
Craftsman/ Dewalt are own by Stanley Black+Decker Bostitch.
If you see a Dewalt hand tool, it’s actually a Stanley.
Being a UK viewer I find it so odd that there is an 07 uk number plate on a mk2 xD
I think it looks normal
Explain? Idk jackshit about these cars
@@ex35240sx the cars over there get lifetime plates, you don't change between owners, so it would have to be sold new in 07 to get it
@@LetItLie so once your assigned a plate its yours for life? Here in the states people get new plates almost every time they get a new car
@@ex35240sx 07 plate means 2007 car
The vw look awesome and freaking quick love it 😍
That mystery ECU would be perfect for 6th gear highway cruiseing just 15 psi all the way without too much stress. XD
Brian’s reaction to the pops at first is literally the best! Good to see the mk2 on the road and rippin!
Check and see if it has no lift shift redline it clutch to the ground stay on gas. You can have all emissions tuned out of it to and readiness set
The s13 was my favorite project buttttt now I think I’m thinking moreeeee the civic 😳
Jimmy the bypass valve is the blow off valve ...not waste gate or activator
Get the radiator support cover... looks way better and keeps the air going through the radiator not around it.
Seeing the MK2 2 stepping has just give me the kick I need to finish my 1.8t MK2 as well.
You have a 300zx and a VW Colorado OMG you and Tommy have all the dream cars I wanted as a kid. Did you guys ever go to the Berlin Turnpike back in the late 90's early 2000's I had a few cool cars I built and me and my friends would drive from western mass to Berlin Turnpike every weekend .

I loved seeing Brian so stoked! I can’t wait til this car is in its final form.
The mk2 looks sexy! the conrods dont last long with 2step here in the uk on the 1.8t. But other then that least it put a big smile on ur face.
Seeing Bhall this hyped is so sick!
It's nice to see Travis around. I want to see his 240 and sr20 again! You should do a little update with what he's doing to it now
New quarantine game: take a shot (or drink) when Jimmy says "So". lol i lost count in this episode.
"so" i just woke up in the hospital
2Step was sick . One of the best ones ive heard on a cheaper car.
New cover is super clean looking! but I still dig that purple
b hall filming makes it look like a crazy dream u have
My lord i love b’s golf
Makes me want a mk2 so bad
Guidosaur my friend had a mk2 with an original 1.8, that thing was not fast but damn she felt like a gokart on the road, way too low for its own good ofc ;D
I honestly feel bad for Travis, dude got so much hate on the old haggard videos, now days I'm sure 90% of people would rather have had him inherit the channel...
Seems like a genuine typo guy.
We need more of Brian's cars on here
I got those slim line gear wrenches lol did the same thing on all of them.. quick run by the grinder.👌
2stepping the ko3 kills them fast tho. A good recipe on a 1.8t is k03s or k04 stage 2 ecu 007 diverter not a blow off, R8 coils 4bar fpr 3in downpipe to 2.5 back and get ready to party
So happy for B.Hall! We need more VDub content!
About that wrench, there's an old blacksmith motto that says "need a tool, make a tool"
14:28 DJ took off😂😂😂
Stephie's miata needs some love
14:27 just priceless
"What did you do"
Bang bang bang
6:32 “felt that ~ jimmy”
Same.
Dude I loved the new valve cover already and then he put the coil packs back in... literally couldn't look any better lol
i know nothing about vw's but they even have a vw car scene here in Brunswick,GA but they have been definitely growin on me. vw content would be cool af
After my Apr stage 2 tune and supporting mods it hit 21 psi consistently.
The 2 step gave me the biggest smile...
remember a stock k03 doesnt last long over 17.5psi they say the magic number before they go is about 1.24 bar. that stage 2 is usually for a k04
Love B Hall. Love his positive outlook.
21 minute video - love it!
Brian face smiling fantastic
So stoked for BHall!!
This just became the dopest Golf MK 2 out there and i already liked it bevore
Thing was definitely not in limp mode. Depending on what engine code he has in the golf, thats what determines how much boost the ecu is setup for. Like my stock awp in my 02 gti was around 10 to 12 psi. Others only hit about 8psi max.
Dewalt wrenches and hand tools are actually really good
What's up my friends from CT, That's crazy. Gotta come by my shop, Lol. I got the VW Gold
I am soooo hype for b hall im literally watching this on my tv and had to pull out my phone to write a comment.
