@@abdallahalassaf8084 The initial torque is a concern with the oem connecting rods, especially on a smaller hybrid K04 turbo. The torque curve ramps up significantly quicker (hits full boost a few hundred rpms sooner than a GT28R). I reach full boost on the CTS K04-X (~26 psi) at 3200 rpms.

Is a Mk 7 Gti a better platform for all round performance than a Mk 6 R? The 4WD is a big one for me and I hear the older engine is more robust but certainly being drawn to the later model as its similarly priced. Looking for a long term daily to improve gradually and not end up regretting purchasing one or the other. Any input appreciated.
Each generation has it's pros and cons. Not sure where you heard of the older engine being "more robust", but the Mk 7 GTI can handle a lot - the third gen EA888 is a beast of an engine. I recently got into a Mk 7 R, and I can say it's definitely a different animal from the all FWD platforms - that AWD makes a massive difference in acceleration on slippery surfaces (tires are also very important here), also in handling. The FWD GTI is going to be a blast to drive and modify, as is the AWD R. The question for you is, do you want FWD or AWD?
@@jameshaulenbeek5931 Pretty sure AWD will win in this instance. If I can safely drive it faster that's a giant factor. I have heard that VW stuck with the older engine in the R as it was better able to reliably cope with the higher output over the '888 GTI. Best go for the 6 spd manual over the DSG I reckon.
@@phoenixrising7047 AWD is a blast. Put good tires on it and have fun. Also, while there are differences in the engines between a Mk 7 GTI and R, the R doesn't have an older generation engine. And I do have the DSG - it's a lot of fun.
I’m so full of questions. I’ve considered this kit for my MK6R. Firstly, I know my car has an EA113, but don’t the MK6 GTI use the early version of the EA888? Also, my car has the APR Direct Injection pump, so I’m curious how much this fuel system is good for. I know the EA113 ECU won’t run port injection so I’m limited unless I buy a standalone ecu. Love the videos man
@@COMotorsports 21 at high rpm? i have this kit on my car and anything more than 18psi will start dropping rail pressure above 5500. just curious because im peaking at around 21 in the midrange but i taper it back so i dont have fueling issues on the top end. im on stock fueling as well. thanks.
i had a question, i have a golf 4 gti 180hp with a k03s turbo but it has play. and was thinking of buying a k03s hybrid. do you guys have experience with this turbo ? what the max hp you can get out of it or is it better to get a k04 001 as a plug and play replacement?
I have a flex fuel A4 and was wondering about these boss kits. Keeping the stock fuel I'd be able to go a lot farther, right? I also have a methanol injection that I plan to put on. Currently IE stage 2. Are the boss kits worth it?
The hpfp is not close to being maxed out. The stock lpfp and fuel pump controler is the limitation. The ea113 hpfp would need to be upgraded at that hp level.
Wrong and HPFP is the first to run out About 350 wheel is the limit Its well documented. Also its why Some people run Nostrum HPFP & MK7 R injectors like myself.
@alowlevelbot43 The MK6 GTI has a TSI engine that does need an HPFP upgrade. The FSI needs an HPFP upgrade to run anything bigger than the stock turbo. The Golf R has a different engine.
thought i needed a boss 600 kit for those power levels. what type of setup does the 600 kit open the doors for? is it overkill for a stock motor 450hp setup?
The turbo might be capable of making that much power, but the oem low pressure fuel pump limits the GTI to around 350 whp (same for the MK7). Also, the smaller turbo spools more quickly, and therefore the torque curve ramps up a few hundred rpms quicker, so the connecting rods become a concern. I'm currently running the CTS K04-X kit on my daily driven MK6 on the stock rods/fuel system, along with a custom tuned ecu/tcu. At around 380 whp, the high pressure fuel pump becomes the limiting factor.
@COMotorsports yes, I understand probably when it's all done I might hit the 500+ It's just that I was really hoping to see it ! Great job on ur behalf 👏 👍 👌 🙌 😉
@@JordieG8 Maybe a couple hundred RPM but nothing out of the ordinary. I wasn't starting the run until a bit later also as the TQ hit is what drags down the fuel demand. This one's coming back to push the turbo more. :)
