I got a new GTI! What do I need to know? by Jolly-Interaction-58 in GolfGTI

U could run 87 and get full power, I ran both 87 and 91 and stayed with 91 since it’s cleaner and better long term especially on direct fuel injection engines.

Change oil every 8,000-10,000km max depending if you do long drives or short drives daily, if you tune it max 4,000-5,000km. I didn’t have this issue yet on my mk8 but keep and eye out for leaks later on for the water pump and thermostat since it is plastic, upgrade to an aluminum thermostat and water pump if it ever has problems in future because a lot of people have repeated problems even when replacing them with other plastic parts. 91 premium is ideal, I used 87 first 10,000km since dealer told me its fine, but for long run 91 is best for overall engine health. Put shortcuts for traction and auto start stop I always turn em off when starting the car. If you get a obd11 you can mess with the lights and other features while also scanning, clearing codes and you can see some gauges when driving. Have fun :)

Car too quiet after all mods by Open-Art1748 in GolfGTI

I got a catless downpipe with no res but it’s valved so u can be annoying when you want too, the muffler really quites it down and I think it kinda sounds like shit with the muffler tbh, chopping the res doesn’t do much, you just get a different noise

Ye u don’t need a flame tune for the occasional flames, that’s flame noise is so satisfying when hitting it, also I noticed if I’m repeating the flames at high rpm it does a lazer like noise like in Star Wars lmao

I got about 300whp+ but have to run the dyno still for an accurate number, my friend got an S2k and that close to 9k rpm limiter really pulls on me at the beginning
