MK7 Golf GTI Stage 2

I’m 26, I own an MK7 Golf GTI running stage 2 software and stage 1 TCU software. I've always had an interest in cars and how they work, always enjoyed tinkering around with them. I ended up doing a college course to become a technician and managed to get into a garage a year after I finished my course. Ever since then I have always had an interest in performance and show cars. I started my performance days off with a Vauxhall Corsa VXR. I also had that running stage 2 software and hardware. I had the car nearly 2 years until I ventured onto the VAG scene and it was the best move I made in terms of build quality and performance opportunities, however, the VXR gave me the insight I needed into the scene and tuning. 

My Golf has stage 2 software and stage 1 TCU tune and is also fitted with the supporting hardware 

Performance-wise-

  • TOYO sport decat and VAG sport resonator delete.
  • Airtec turbo muffler delete, Ramair turbo elbow
  • MTC silicone hose with a racing line panel filter which Replicates the R600 intake system.
  • Currently running RS7 spark plugs. 
  • Forge Blow Off Valve 
  • Final power figures- 347BHP 474NM 

Handling- 

  • Racingline 25mm lowering springs 
  • BAF K-brace 

Exterior- 

  • Triple R composites splitter 
  • Maxton design diffuser 
  • Maxton design spoiler extension 
  • Bola B1 wheels metallic gloss bronze wrapped in Michelin pilot sport 4s  
  • VW badges in black 
  • Rear windows tinted 

Interior- 

  • All dash plastics wrapped in gloss black 
  • Carbon steering wheel with anodized red DSG paddles 

 

Currently not finished as I want to possibly go bigger power, Currently requires a bigger intercooler, Few more handling bits that I would like to add, poly bushes and anti-roll bars, possibly some bigger brakes. And maybe some more carbon bits but I will see. 

I wouldn’t say it's unique from others as there are many around however it is mine and I absolutely love the car I have made it. 

I'd like to make a shoutout to
