Bump for the 7.5s / 2019 Golf R Just had my harness installed and Stage 2 TrueFlex V1.00 tune loaded. Initial impressions; no drama; great drivability; a little spicier at low and mid range throttle; I haven't put my foot in it yet; just seeing how the car adapts for the first 50 or so miles...

And I just found the other thread where you two were posting; good info. Your e50 comment makes a little more sense now with that context.

And I already have the HPFP installed.

Yeah; maybe I wasn’t clear enough. The dreaded ‘is it worth it’ question. Currently running Stage 2 and looking for more umph with the least amount of fuss. I have the IE software, so it’s a hardware install only for me. Curious what’s peoples’ butt dynos have been telling them, any bugs or...

Yep; aware of the mpg hit that E85 brings. I like the flexibility of not needing to measure and mix, and fill up with just 93 when I want.

Curious about your impressions. Is 50% to 100% E85 a significant difference in everyday driving, or mostly during WOT?

Yes; will post the next time I have it up on stands.

I had the 17930 installed, just before the rear section due to clearance d/s concerns and how low it might hang near it. End result is exactly what I was wanting; near stock sound with flaps closed; no fartiness when open.

This is for a 2019 Golf R. Previous owner did a resonator delete. I just added a IE DP and not a fan of the sound with the factory mufflers. Is the Vibrant 17930 still the ticket to get it back to factory-ish levels and tone?

TLDR; It was my garage door opener on my sun visor. Stumbled into this thread while researching my own rattle and found it. It sounded like it was coming from the center vent area and I had watched videos on how to remove all the trim to investigate; then this thread pointed me towards some...

Yeah; getting that vibe. IE doesn't for 7.5; been waiting for at least a year now. link Hopefully Uni will come through. My real headscratcher is I thought the7.5 and 8 were pretty close together as far as engine mgt, but I guess not.

There are flex tunes for the 7R and the Mk8 (at least seeing beta tunes out there), but nothing for the 7.5 or amI just not looking hard enough? APR, Unitronic, 034, IE?

If you have, regardless of the reasons, I’d like to hear your thoughts on whether or not you think it worked for you. Lighter wheels, loss expensive tires? Better ride and/or performance?

Is there a way to make the auto adjusting rear view mirror darker (VCDS; OBDEleven?)? Or, is there a flippable mirror that can be swapped out?

Dudes - any install feedback on the Racingline unit? Any trimming/mods needed? Thanks

Bumping to see if anyone is running the DQ381 TCU tune?

+1 Great street ride; quiet; no issues; coming up on 2 years

I’ve seen this come up recently a couple times, and I struggled with this myself after going Stage2+ with Unitronic, so I figured I’d post a PSA for those of us tuned, but still need to flash down to a lower stage, or stock, to get state OBD2 ‘plug in’ emissions inspections. VAGCOM will let you...

Going from 18x8 45 with 10mm spacer up front and 15mm spacer in the rear so net 35 and 30 offsets running a 235.40 tires to….19x8.5 45 with no spacers and I want to run a 245.35 for a little more wheel protection and comfort. I am lowered on KWs. ‘Will-it-fit’ calculators tell me I will have...

Who's running 19s successfully with little NVH and what tire are you running? I'm considering new wheels to get away from spacers and hub rings; /0/"]RSe102s. I am however not a fan of NVH (I daily my GTI ~50mi round trip) so I am leery of going with 19s that will have a much slimmer sidewall...
