This is the best sounding exhaust setup for the Mk5 I've found on RUclips! Wanted something slightly louder and deeper than stock but not obnoxious, so I ended up ordering the resonated catback (I have no plans for a downpipe/stage 2) from Cobra after watching this and your previous video. No issues with droning at all on the resonated system?
Haha thanks man. I really wanted to try and get this out there to show other people because I was watching loads of videos for similar systems before I got it. It literally is perfect to me, not overpowering when you're just cruising around, but when you hammer it, sounds epic especially in tunnels. No drone at all for me, and no crazy asbo loud pops and bangs. Just a really subtle burble on the gear changes, and nice little overrun on deceleration occasionally 👍🏼
got gti with decat hybrid ko4 polybushed engine mount creations motorsport intake r8 coil pack 3.5inc wisbech exhaust from turbo s3 hpfp rs3 intercooler on stage 3 hitting 400bhp with full printout they are really fun cars planning on doing the 4wd kit and some more
I'm not sure tbh because I did all of the work around the same time, so not sure if the gdb actually made it louder or not. Overall I was happy with the sound after it though.
Before starting the car, if you just turn the ignition on. Left foot on the break and then tap the accelerator, it changes between the 5 maps. Hard to describe but very easy to show 😅
Standard clutch is doing ok, I've seen people run this power or maybe even slightly more with it. The intercooler I think might suffer a bit in summer when it gets warmer. I've heard of heatsoak being an issue so probably the next thing I'll have to look at. The S3 intercooler is usually an easy replacement, fits the same fittings 👍🏼
Not changed the intercooler yet, probably next thing on the list. Was just the turbo back exhaust and Revo Intake and somehow managed to get that much out of it 🤷🏻♂️ I usually run it in map 4 though which is around 270bhp roughly.
how did you get that turbo chatter? my cars stage 2 from rtech 270bhp 435nm of torque, decat direnza catback exhaust intake r8 coil packs etc, but i need that turbo chatter in my life😂
Resonated, it's just too much if it's non resonated in my eyes. Will do your head in with the boominess of the sound, especially on dual carriage ways or motorways

@@DanTheFourWheeler That's good to hear, looking forward to its arrival this week!
@@DanTheFourWheeler Update: it sounds amazing! I love it!
I'm running same bhp so much fun. Apart from mine is DSG. Rtech are the ones for mk5 tuning!
Yeahh wouldn't go anywhere else!

Oooh sounds like a beast
When you put in your GFB dv+ did the intake noises increase or decrease ? Mine decreased only flutters on high gears with low rpm acceleration
I'm not sure tbh because I did all of the work around the same time, so not sure if the gdb actually made it louder or not. Overall I was happy with the sound after it though.
How do you change what map your using on the car, like multiple maps ?

Yes it’s danthetwowheeler but in a car! You live so close to me
Haha I'm sure I met you once when I was on the bike, I had the FZ6 at the time and you randomly pulled up!?!
Hi mate, is it ok to run your stage 2 with standard intercooler & clutch? No problems with it?
Standard clutch is doing ok, I've seen people run this power or maybe even slightly more with it. The intercooler I think might suffer a bit in summer when it gets warmer. I've heard of heatsoak being an issue so probably the next thing I'll have to look at. The S3 intercooler is usually an easy replacement, fits the same fittings 👍🏼
What’s the mileage on your gti? And can I order the cobra exhaust even if I’m from the United States?
It's on 118,000 miles roughly, and yes I'm sure you can. I know cobra operate in the US, just need to find a dealer near you that stocks them 👍🏼
@@DanTheFourWheeler Thank You for the info, have a good day
what did u change to get 290bhp?
Hpfp
Decat
Front mount Intercooler
Cold air intake
@@jayanders1485 which hpfp and intercooler did u buy
@@MrGwopz can just buy the s3 8p alloy end intercooler

@@DanTheFourWheeler i got ramair oversized induction kit and decat im gonna get it mapped so im hoping i will get around 270-290bhp

Haha gotta have the chatter! 😅 Ermm what intake have you got? I think it's Revo intake that makes that sound for me. Maybe also GFB DV+?
@@DanTheFourWheeler Ive got a ramair oversized induction , do u have the link for the dv+
www.awesomegti.com/shop-by-brand/gfb/gfb-dv-for-vag-20fsi-turbo-engines
Hmm maybe that intake is different, because I'm pretty sure it's the Revo that made most the difference with bringing that sound out
@@DanTheFourWheelerMines flutters pretty lound since I have a high-flow cat 3" dp and CAI upgrade, it turns heads. New oem turbo also.
Hey:) i loved the video:) is the car reliable?:)
Yeahh german guys in general are known for reliability, but in particular these golf's and audis alike are solid 👌🏼
Sorry I was wondering what does bhp mean?
break horse power
What's the millege on and how's it fuel economy wise bro
120k miles approx. Fuel economy wasn't actually too bad, maybe around 30mpg
Small world o live round these roads 😂
Is the turbo back exhaust resonated or non resonated?
Resonated, it's just too much if it's non resonated in my eyes. Will do your head in with the boominess of the sound, especially on dual carriage ways or motorways
Thanks! I’ve ordered the non resonated. Have it straight now😅
Have you drove a ep3 or fn2?
Ep3 yes, not an FN2
Do you have the axx engine or bwa engine ?
Pretty sure it's the bwa
Volqn pe dreapta
Thanks for watching
If only it was a dsg
Manual all day long especially with fwd
Éclater mdrrrr
Appreciate the comment
Did you upgrade the clutch??
No I didn't, but it would've been on my list if I kept the car
What type of gas you use for your stage 2?
99 Ron Shell V Power
@@DanTheFourWheeler thats hella expensive tho😩 i have the same car but using low octane
Its apr stage 2 too
Is it bad if i run lower octane?
@@emejotapr3000 yes very bad if tuned
