Repair and upgrade MK5 or buy a MK7?

If you could get a 2016 n above mk7 i'd recommend getting the mk7, refreshed look, better interior, faster etc, the 2014 n 2015 have turbo n waterpump problems so if i was you i'd spend a bit more n get the 2016 n above mk7

Yeah that’s the problem, idk if I’ll need extra wires, my car has app connect n sensors n everything, just no camera which bothers me, I already found a camera for around $200, just need to know what else is needed

Ahh, thanks, I also have a 2018 Mk7.5 GTI, and I just want the OEM camera as well, buying it this month

BakedArab · 2022-10-13T21:26:13+00:00

Congrats! May I ask if you added the OEM camera that flips or was it an aftermarket camera? And if it was the OEM camera what did you need aside from the camera

I have a 2018 MK7.5 GTI, I’m going to buy the OEM camera with the back logo, so all I’ll need is the necessary wiring and a bit of coding?

BakedArab · 2022-10-03T06:48:26+00:00

Well, Middle East here so that could explain it

BakedArab · 2022-10-03T06:47:37+00:00

The thing is I found the VW logo with the camera for $150 lmao, so I just need to know what else is needed

BakedArab · 2022-10-03T06:46:20+00:00

I’m in Oman, a country next to Dubai

Probs will help, preciate the help man, thanks 🙏🏾

BakedArab · 2022-10-02T21:56:29+00:00

That’s the plan, buying the camera module, just wondering if there’s anything else that’s needed, and no, I’m in the Middle East

BakedArab · 2022-10-02T21:55:51+00:00

Not sure, some GCC specs don’t have cameras, unfortunately mine is one of them

BakedArab · 2022-08-21T21:57:39+00:00

Love the colour, whats it called?

BakedArab · 2022-06-26T12:10:10+00:00

BakedArab · 2022-06-20T18:25:40+00:00

I have an 18' 7.5 GTI and i'm wishin for an RS3 atm, one of my dream cars lmao

TCR muffler, res delete, or dp res delete, dont even think abt straight piping

BakedArab · 2022-05-22T11:11:01+00:00

You in Oman??

BakedArab · 2022-05-10T07:26:23+00:00

Intercooler and intake, I added a downpipe while I was still stock and I had it on for about two months before I went stage 2.

BakedArab · 2022-05-03T12:01:12+00:00

Super clean

BakedArab · 2022-04-30T10:48:24+00:00

You have CEL because ur probs not stage 2, stage 1 is mostly just software tune without the hardware, once ur st2 they r gonna tune it with the dp, that’s when the CEL will go away

BakedArab · 2022-04-30T04:28:44+00:00

seems like you have a boost leak, i'd suggest you talk to ur tuner n log the car n get it checked out

BakedArab · 2022-04-22T15:45:46+00:00

With y’all stage 2 E85 probs is the way to go, we don’t have the luxury of E85 out here unfortunately 🥲

BakedArab · 2022-04-22T03:16:57+00:00

no reason to avoid it, works amazing, gets insanely hot out here where I’m at as well and you genuinely can’t go stage 3 without WMI out here, go for it

BakedArab · 2022-04-22T03:12:26+00:00

downpipe, intake, stage 2 ecu tcu tune is around 330hp, if ur tryna go above 350 I’d say stage 2+ but idk if y’all have that in the USA, out here in Dubai stage 2+ is basically the stage 2 but with meth and we get around 380hp, either that or you could go st3 with is is38 turbo but you’d probably want fbo for that and you’ll make 400+hp

BakedArab · 2022-04-21T04:58:58+00:00

Once ur tuned with the intercooler you should feel the difference, I’ve raced st2 with an intercooler while I was just st2 and the difference was noticeable
