MK7 GTI Hybrid vs Loud MK8 GTI

ouch

I'm not running big boy boost - 28 till redline.

28 psi to redline will def smash a "tuned" MK8. I'm waiting to run in to a MK8 that wants to go for a run in an open highway.

Why you gotta say thing that you know will hurt me?

Sorry man.

I'm just frustrated for you. You shouldn't need to shift at 6500. I wind mine out to 7200+ every time I log in 3rd. Stock block/stock head. It still pulls up there.

Your turbo is bigger. I don't think mine makes that much power that high anyway.

But still, you shouldn't have to worry about going past 6700 rpm and throwing an EPC.

Maybe it's time you joined the OS crew...

I know. Working through it, slowly but surely.

get a gap cam

What is a good one to have?

 

[Diggs24]

I think something unobtrusive like a garmin mini. Been planning on that one myself since my front cam is integrated into the mirror cover.

I’m pretty happy about my new insta360

I've had a few different ones and the mirror cam has been my favorite. The brand I use is sold out (VanTop) but this one looks pretty similar- www.amazon.com/WOLFBOX-Rear-View-Mirror-Camera/dp/B0B1B41WC9/

@Daks I hear that @Diggs24 has been designated your proboner tuner if you switch away from the axis of evil...

I beg to differ. Sounds like he's all yours.

I'd be happy to help him. I'm still your padawan tho.

Boys. Tune me. But don't blow up my motor. I have to get to work. Feed my child.
