It took me some time but the mk8 gti look grew on me overtime. Yours looks great and congratulations!

I did the 93 octane flash on my 22 SE and I’ve been loving it! It feels FAST and the pops on the downshifts sound awesome! Can’t wait to get an exhaust for it as well! These cars are awesome man 🙌🏽

I got the same car in Australia i changed the exhaust made so much difference to it now picking up today after a ecu tune

those mountains look amazing man im jealous at the beach

[Rottenmk]

bought the tune also, waiting to get my engine lights taken care of before I tune it. been waiting for a consumer video. Thank you!

[tonypatterson]

I am dying to see 0-60 and quarter mile results from this tune

I got a late 2021 dsg one recently and looking at 034 rn. I was wondering how it is now for you with reliability. And also what tune should I get.

Hey bro thx for the video!
I have a quick question for ya, did you have to purchase the $150 dynamic+ tuning cable?

[draneldavid]

Brothah, great content, great channel and great dude. I’ve been scouring YT for a consumer review for an EQT with Cobb access port stage 1 91 review on the MK8 GTI* specifically. Any chance you could be the first? Lol

[iankerr]

thinking about stage 1 for my 23 auto. No issues with the dsg ?

[Vicdavies]

Hi from England I’m Vic, slightly confused as you look like your in a gti in driving mode, but on your flash install your dash said golf R, which is it and if gti how did you get the golf r display thanks again tc

[UIOP]

Have you encountered any problems so far? Thinking of getting this tune instead of the more popular counterpart, unitronic.

[philliprollman]

I just got a 24 GTI S thinking about going with APR stage 1 and tcu tune as well

[CC-uhgl]

What’s the build quality of the MK8 like compared to your MK6? I’m asking because I have a MK6 and thinking of getting a MK8.

[NickBond]

Does the unitronic also pop and crackle like the 034?

[Anonymous-kbbs]

You said you did the normal, or "high torque" file, but when I spoke with 034 they said their low torque is the only one for non tuned TCU. On their site it's listed at 355lbs of torque, but in the e-mail they told me their low torque is 387lbs which is the cap for any untuned TCU. So any idea how you got away with doing the higher torque file? I'm guessing regardless you're capped but curious as to what you actually dyno despite having the higher torque file.

[crazyframes]

Hey man good stuff, I'm looking into getting a 034 for my gti, and was wondering if there an option for low torque with the dsg? I know it's an odd thing, but I wouldn't mind having less torque for daily driving.

[PQRCHE]

Nice video. What made you pick the 034 tune vs Unitronic & APR?

[cyclistman]

Isn't it risky to increase engine torque and not do a TCU tune at the same time? The DCT clutch pressure should be increased to handle the additional torque other wise the clutch packs could slip and burn the clutch plates.

[hunterpeterson]

Dude we have the same car!! I’ve been looking at these tunes, 034 seems interesting. How is it for reliability? If I get that will something break eventually because of it?
