I know this is WAY too late to say, but that car has a torn Diverter Valve, you can hear it in the first few seconds of the video. The turbo is not meant to have a high pitch on high boost, that is boost escaping from the diverter valve as I bet it has a stock diverter valve, it does not have a blow off valve you can tell when you let off the throttle. The car could actually have higher boost if this part was replaced, and therefore more power. 0-100 in 3.9 is kind of slow for a Stage 2, you would expect 3.4ish Torn diverter valves are very common, that is why people get a more durable replacement.
it’s just sound resonance from the intake. mine sounds the same as well as many other videos. it has a boost gauge in the infotainment and mine makes what it should for the tune i have ~26psi
I totally get it. I like my RS5 over the R35 GTR because it’s just so much more visceral. Hard to explain, but it’s about how it makes you feel not just performance.

This is my exact car 2020 golf r final edition,mine is white too haven't modded it yet except for cosmetic stuff and bigger stereo stuff on top of the dynaudio I got a proper optical audio interface from mobridge so all the oem factory stuff is maintained I've just got bigger amps, and zapco 16 channel DSP and JL 13w7 sub cis I'm a music nut this was more important to me I'll keep my warranty for the remainder of it before I do anything I think, down pipe and tune will be all I do as well!
The performance VW's are great if you do them correctly like this one (Though I'm not a huge fan of 4 pot cracks and bangs)... Have you reviewed an E46 M3 or E60/62/63 M5/M6?

Thanks Martin the VL turbo is on my watch list still unfortunately haven’t found one to review but fingers crossed I’ll find one while I’m in Melbourne
I don't have anything "interesting" but it's a 2021 Kia Cerato GT, Xforce Catback system is pretty much all I have.. Other than that it's stock in the northern suburbs of Melbourne.
One thing I hate with these cars is when I pull up to the lights against one in my cammed six litre I know I'm screwed but I give it a shot anyways, damn their quick👍 where bouts in Melbourne will you be at? Or is it all on Facebook. Another nice review mate as well as that LTD and V8 Beemer, GTO 👍🇦🇺🍻
Got a 2018 Golf R Wagon, stage 2 and dsg tune too. Pretty much same mods. Hit me up if you want to review it and compare it to the hatch next time you're in Melbourne.
The white and black wheels looks lovely That 0-100 = easy 400 bhp I think Do they have them in Canada. Make sure you do a nsw trip sometime. And there will be a 1M coupe waiting for you
Not my cup of tea but can certainly appreciate it. Really unpopular opinion but I dont like the crackle and pop.. it just sounds shit to me. I guess im old school and really love the sound of V8's 🤷♂️ these cars go hard though, no denying that.
I’m an old V8 guy too and agree about the crackle & pop tunes but you don’t have to have those tuned into it, you can have it tuned with no crackle n pop and just as quick. I threw caution to the wind and snagged one of these Finsl Edition new, I haven’t modded it (yet) but it’s quick and better still in wet or damp conditions it still pulls the same. Just playing around, I’ve gapped and XR6 turbo off the lights (it was highly modded) & I also put a few lengths on a modded Supra, admittedly in damp conditions. Best thing about them is they don’t stand out at all, nobody gives it a second glance. As a daily driver it would have to be one of the best around, comfortable (for a small car) & the finish is much nicer than much on the road. It’s just a golf but it shreds 😂
I’ve been waiting for one of these reviews. 👍. BTW this is your third quickest car you’ve ever tested on your channel (after the Jeep Trackhawk and the Audi RS7), yet is the least powerful in your top ten quickest cars. Can’t wait until you drive a similarly modified stage 2 powered TTRS or RS3 and see if you can crack into the 2’s (or very low 3’s) for the first time in your channel. Keep up the excellent work
Yeah but it was the Final Edition for the Mk7.5 & there’s a few of us that ran out and bought one after we saw the photos of the Mk8 as it had been released in Germany and is an abomination imo. Love this little pocket rocket, they are quick stock but some guys have stage 3 tuned them and are getting subb3 second 0-100 times out of them. 😂
@@GR8Tmate What ended to make it a Final Edition. There was a Lancer Evo X Final Edition and Final Edition WRX STI at the end of the EJ, that turned out to be the end of the STI name plate all to gather. I agree they are obscenely quick car and very tunable.

I have a stock 2019 Special Edition Golf R. The Akrapovic exhaust sounds ballistic, and though I haven’t tuned it yet, when I do I’ll be disappointed if I’m not seeing better 0-100 times than the car in the clip. Maybe Ross didn’t give it the beans as it was a borrowed car or maybe it had an issue
I have a BA mkII xr8 manual you can review. Might be a bit boring compared with all the other cars you’ve had tho. It’s a sedan & it’s in rapid yellow, might seem slightly familiar
400hp on a stage 2 definitely not happening more like 320-330hp atw. With Stage 3 you will make 400+hp. Bigger turbo intercooler flex fuel E85/98 down pipe you can make 400+hp My 2018 VW Golf R MK7.5 made 310hp atw with stage 1. Tuned by Pacortech Ingleburn
