    I recently had the Racingline Stage 1 (low torque version) added to my MK8 R, however, the turbo turbine blades cracked and destroyed the turbo. The car is only 2 months old from new. Sad times. Luckily Racingline paid for the replacement (as VW wouldn't cover it under warranty due to the tune) and installation. Not sure if it were a faulty part from factory, or it was the tune. Really hesitant to get remapped again.

      That’s most likely due to a faulty part/turbo from the factory. A simple low torque Stage 1 tune shouldn’t blow a turbo like that. Turbo’s are new on the MK8’s, so ultimately everyone who has bought one have been guinea pigs on the testing and reliability aspect.

    I'm all for the Mk8. Only way I'd consider one would be getting rid of the haptic touch button mess, the complex info menus. The aesthetics of the car got to be a tad too soft in the fascia design but not terrible.

    These ea888 gen4 engines from a mk8 r pushing stage 3 will make similar power to a mk7 r with ea888 gen3. Its been done by mrc and hamza from his YT channel. Its the same block but with better flowing fuel pumps, turbo and maybe injectors

    • @RegalAutosport
      @RegalAutosport  10 месяцев назад +2

      The tune doesn't impact the intercooler, the intercooler remains the same. However, the tune does increase the boost, which does mean the inlet temperature of the intercooler is higher, and outlet will be higher too. Not so much so that it makes a tangible difference to output though, especially in these conditions.
      Perhaps in summer where the ambient is already very high, there would be a performance benefit from a performance intercooler

      That is what it makes... No idea on the TCU tune, it will be the same as everyone else - the software can be easily made. The communication protocol does not exist to extract or upload information to the TCU. Everyone in the industry uses the same tools, so once someone 'cracks' it or there is a leak, everyone will be able to do it at the same time.
