Getting to Phase 1?

[Westy11]

Hey, I just got a 2019 Golf R and am trying to figure out whether to go to stage 1. Does anyone have any recommendations? I see on YouTube most people are really happy with the changes. I live around Toronto Canada so would love to hear from other canadians around TO.

Welcome to the forum. For stage 1 you would only need to get a drop in air filter and maybe a catback exhaust. And of course a tune. The tune will void your warranty if something breaks that VW considers the tune caused.

This Canadian (yes, I know, it's a BIG country) has posted quite a few videos going over the EQT (Cobb-based) Stage 1 tune; he seems happy as a clam with it. Check out numbers 16 through 11: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLR-xiv2hHw4ZIVpY6E_9X-knl6thuFnt7

Thanks. I'll take a look.

Yes.

Are you willing to give up your warranty should be your first question. If you said yes, a tune is a no brainer.
