Thanks for doing the work to my GTI guys! Can't wait to break in the clutch and see what it can really do! Love Clayton's comment "Intake sucks harder than Robbie" 😂 See you guys in another year or so to upgrade the turbo, etc 👌🏼👌🏼
My MK7 GTI with the EQT stage 1 93 tune made 295hp and 368lb at the wheels with only an mst turbo inlet, drop in afe air filter and ngk ruthenium plugs gapped at 0.024. Boost peaked at 27.6 psi.
No timing pull or knock. There's approximately 8-10% drivetrain loss on gti's, so at crank it would be somewhere around 325hp and 385lb. @@necc74challenger
7.5 R built motor EQT here for the win. I would love to see you guys do a fully built 7.5R. I guess the 1/4 mile record for for Gen 3 EA888 MQB was just broke again. Getting into the low 9's. Lets see an 8.
I see far more GTIs in my area. There is still a healthy amount of Rs though. What I would like to see is an R with one of the fancy colors they were offering back in 2019 or whichever year that was.
Great video as usual, you said it was the most HP st2 GTI you've dynoed, have you guys been seeing much better numbers because the ethanol in some of our 91 now? I've been seeing about 8% from my tester (wish I had a sensor but unitronic is still 2 weeks out for the past 2yrs), and the RS3 is definitely loving the Uni 91 map now, I no longer have to blend e98 on every tank.
Typically Esso and Wilson's 91 is treating e10-11. I haven't no idea what fuel is in this car. Side note to answer your question, for done tunes it engines it will help for sure, the ones that don't see any knock issues it will make no difference.
Well done and good to see some GTI from gen VII. You guys cover a lot so respect to you. I am older and more old school so dont know much about Cobb with Web but I always remember them for WRX cpu tunes. Is this just an upload to cpu via OBD and it fines optimal setup of fuel and timing during pulls and saves that setup?
Yeah these are tunes created by a Cobb pro tuner that just use the Cobb AP to flash the file. As a Cobb pro tuner you can pay for the editing software to create tunes like this. We're actually a Cobb pro tuner as well but we don't have enough customer to justify the expense of their subscription/license fees to do custom files like this. So we just use what others have proven to work.
As someone who lives in the pnw specifically washington state theres a abundance of mk7 gtis as i myself own 1 and i can see about 6 in 30 minutes of driving
I have the Eqt stage 2 tune with just aftermarket air filter and catless downpipe and it throws a cel catless below threshold, a few years ago eqt disabled the cel for that I think, is there anyway to to get rid of that code, and does Canada have this problem.
I have a mk7.5 GTI and im running the stage to eqt tune and i noticed my turbo seals blew shorty after i flashed the tune, i got all the right bolt ons to go stage 2 (intake, exhaust, downpipe, intercooler, etc) But cant help but wonder was it because of the tune? I feel like i did everything right
When you stop and think about it, 350 foot pounds of torque at the wheel in a small car like that is a lot. When you buy a tune from EQT, do they give you the software, or software and the Cobb flash tool? Do you have any ability to tweak timing or anything just in case you're seeing knock or something?
For the mk7.5 gti do you still recommend 508/509 0w20 for tuned and tracked or switch to 5w40 oil? EQT says switch to 5w40 i just didnt know your thoughts
The only thing changed between the mk7 and 7.5 in regards to oil is the oil pump, and it was a very minor revision. You can use 5w30/5w40 (vw spec ofcourse) in the 7.5’s as well as 0w20, but you cannot use 0w20 in the MK7’s. Only reason they switched to 0w20 is for emission reasons but if you want to protect your engine (especially if it’s beaten on or tuned) I’d highly recommend 5w40. I’ve been running that in my EQT Stage 1 ‘19 for almost 15k miles with 0 issues
Hey guys! I,ve been debating on putting a catless DP, I’ve seen some videos at the dyno that show putting the catless DP actually doesnt make any gains and in some cases it looses power, can you tell or give your advise? Car is a MK7 GLI 19, stage 2 Thanks
@@COMotorsports So an EQT "stage 2" is using the IS20 stock housing with EQT enhanced internals? The XL version is the IS38 housing with enhanced internals?
@@kawzx777 With the GTI, there is an option for front-mount in the aftermarket, but replacing the stock location intercooler with a much higher capacity unit is more functional.
My wifes MK7 is a IE "stage 2" car and it mops the floor with ny MK4 1.8t, should i build the MK4 to win or should i just divorce her? Theyre both equally as expensive in my eyes
Not on 91oct you haven't. also this is wheel hp, not crank. 300whp is basically all stage 2 has to offer on 91oct. Trust me, we've dyno'd a lot of these, with plenty of different software.
I like how the owner added supporting mods first then the power afterwords!
thanks for the MK 7.5 content :) keeps me coming back

They use 91 octane so they can’t go as aggressive on the timing as you can

In nyc there’s literally a gti on every block
Estimated 1/4 mile time for this car and how much gains could you see if tuned for 93 octane in US?
I have a tsi 1.8 with a full GTI unitronic downpipe and exhaust v-band and a stage 2
Gti setup
Thanks for the video! Did you run into a CEL with the CTS downpipe and the tune?
All depends on tune.
@@COMotorsports that I know but was wondering specifically about the EQT stage 2 tune with the CTS downpipe.
@@SeanJuan_ same answer applies. Because old EQT files no CEL, new files CEL.
what physco put the vband bolt on backwards?
Did it give you guys a check engine light? Did you unplug the rear O2 sensor?
Most of the mainstream software providers are trying to abide by the rules, so yes an upgraded downpipe generally will give you a CEL.
Need live feed for drag car walk around and discussion
I have the Eqt stage 2 tune with just aftermarket air filter and catless downpipe and it throws a cel catless below threshold, a few years ago eqt disabled the cel for that I think, is there anyway to to get rid of that code, and does Canada have this problem.
It's a Cobb thing, most companies now it's similar.
My mk7.5 gti stage 2 made 260 HP and 350 torque at the wheels is this a good number for a custome tune? Modes catless DP. ON 92 oct
Pretty sure there are some stage 1 mk7.5's making more with no bolt ons on 91.
Mostly gti here in Ontario
what about knocks on 91 octane?
I have a mk7.5 GTI and im running the stage to eqt tune and i noticed my turbo seals blew shorty after i flashed the tune, i got all the right bolt ons to go stage 2 (intake, exhaust, downpipe, intercooler, etc) But cant help but wonder was it because of the tune? I feel like i did everything right
More so likely PCV, not turbo.
@@COMotorsports ah alright thanks for the advice 🤘

When you buy a tune from EQT, do they give you the software, or software and the Cobb flash tool? Do you have any ability to tweak timing or anything just in case you're seeing knock or something?
No tweaking. You require a Cobb AP in order to flash the EQT file. So you either have/or buy one, or you can get both from EQT.
How’s the is38+ performance over the is20? Is there a big difference in bhp?
Typically +50whp over stage 2 GTI.
Any suggestions for a e46 330ci bmw?
Also what do I need to make it a 2.0
Have you guys done any a3 8vs?
For the mk7.5 gti do you still recommend 508/509 0w20 for tuned and tracked or switch to 5w40 oil? EQT says switch to 5w40 i just didnt know your thoughts

Car is a MK7 GLI 19, stage 2
Thanks
100% makes more power
Say no more! Thanks
Cheers from Costa Rica!
What catted downpipe do u hav
i know a guy with a mk7 gti also stage 2 but with a full exhaust and a remap it does around 390 hp
Wheel HP and crank HP are different. This is measured at the wheels and stock GTI turbo is not making that power, not is a golr r turbo on this fuel.
Do a mk7.5 stage 2 IE vs stage 2 EQT!
You paying? If so we'll make it happen. ;)
Don't think it was mentioned, but is this Mk7.5 running stock IS20?
That's what stage 2 is. Stock turbo
@@COMotorsports So an EQT "stage 2" is using the IS20 stock housing with EQT enhanced internals? The XL version is the IS38 housing with enhanced internals?
@@exothermal.sprocket this is just EQT stage 2 software on stock turbo. That's what stage 2 is....whatever software and stock turbo.
In our area in Australia mostly R's, people think if you drive a GTI you can't afford a R....😂😂😂😂
What's the performance differences between having an aftermarket intercooler vs not with having similar mods as this car?
Upgraded intercooler on these always make more power.
Cooler intake temps, consistently less/no heat soak with lots of throttle use.
Heat soak is not a myth. Even with a stock car/ daily driver a fmic is SO important.
@@kawzx777 With the GTI, there is an option for front-mount in the aftermarket, but replacing the stock location intercooler with a much higher capacity unit is more functional.
@@exothermal.sprocket Ur 100% correct! I was thinking more budget friendly & cheaper install.
What clutch is in it?
here in portugal, 95% are gtis and 5% are rs :D
I'd like to see EQT off the shelf ~175 usd compared to stratified OTS + datalog refinement ~200
You'd only see that if a client decides to do something like that.
My 7.5 GTI on a restricted revo stage 2 makes 330hp, 420 nm/309 lb ft. (Non-fbo) on 93 octane / 98 ron
This is wheel HP not crank HP, and it's 91oct.
@@COMotorsports so im off by 3 whp give or take, if you go for revo stage 2, you'd be able to pull off 330-350whp and 390 crank lb ft
@@mkviis I guess I missed your point.
Do stage 2 e85 hpfp next
We don't get e85 at the pump here.
