    Official Oryx White Pearl Golf R Thread

    Finally lowered on racingline springs, 35% tint all around and sold the stock Englishtowns for 18" XXR 527's. Ride is a lot smoother with the extra sidewall.

    To Borla or Not to Borla

    Not trying to hijack the thread at all... Disappointed to hear the Borla system is having this issue. That said, can you PM me some of your thought's on a better than cat-back system? Axel back, really. I have a catted and resonated AWE downpipe and would love to retain the valve control without...

    unfortunately after about 500 miles the cruise control and front end collision indicators are still on. The system says these applications are not available. so, trip to the dealer it is.

    Driver Assistance Sensors

    The saga continues. My sensors came back on this morning while just driving normal. I’ve scanned them, cleared and even pulled the battery for a while. It is saying the driver assist system is not available and I can’t even change settings with OBD11. Looks like a trip to the dealer sometime...

    Driver Assistance Sensors

    Thank you all for the responses and feedback. This morning I hit the same spot going about 25mph and, while it still was rougher than I'd like, the sensors did not go off. I have 27,000 miles on the car and have done the recalibration with my 20k miles service. I have as much of that stuff...

    Driver Assistance Sensors

    Hey All, 2 days ago I was going through a construction/paving site on the highway. While traveling 35mph I hit a pretty good size bump where the new paving met the old paving. My dashboard lit up with indicator lights for my Front Assist, Adaptive Cruise Control and Lane Assist, all saying the...

    Another downpipe thread

    I have the AWE downpipe, catted, with resonated midpipe matted to stock cat-back. Barely louder than stock with minimal, if any, drone. I do 100 miles per day driving my R at all speeds and I absolutely love the sound.

    Question about intercooler install on DAP equipped Rs

    I had an APR intercooler installed and actually did have to get my ACC recalibrated. The shop unplugged all my sensors to remove the front bumper and after about 100 miles I threw a CEL. Dealership needed 4 hours to recalibrate.

    Stage 2 supporting mods discussion

    No it did not throw a code and no spacer. Fitment was excellent, sound was only slightly louder than stock (catted and resonated)... good quality part!

Car runs beautifully under all conditions. I daily it...

    EQT Stage 2?

    I went EQT Stage 2 last week. WOw... very happy with the performance, smoothness of the tune and minimal knock. Car is running fantastic! Paired it with the EQT DSG tune as well.

    Any reviews of the Mishimoto IC?

    If you can find one, the AWE catted DP with resonator is very stock sounding. Just had mine installed last week. At the very least, you could do an AWE DP and have a shop add in a custom resonator. I had a res delete, so I can't say if the stock res helps but I'm sure it would. Love the sound...

    Replacing the factory sub in my 2016 Golf R

    I started off by running a 10" kicker shallow mount and tapping into the factory sub. It was a decent increase in output but still wasn't hitting the lows. Ended up buying a 500 watt amp and LOC and running them to the same sub. Sounds 1000 times better now. Everything is tucked in the wheel...

    Cobb AP install gone wrong

    Did you try plugging it back into the car and doing only the ECU tune first? (not saying to do this, just curious if you attempted to re-install one at a time).

    Turbo inlet pipe for stock intake

    For me it was more about how much quicker the turbo spooled and how much throttle response there was. Car felt a lot more responsive afterwards.
