Love Ya Paul ..You take the effort to explain for all ..Refreshing to see and Hear

The MQB and B9 platforms are so blessed by this amazing ingenuity from the OEM and the aftermarket to introduce smart solutions to utilize it. This otherwise stock car is producing similar power to my FBO E85 IS20 MK7 - which I consider to be perfect for a daily. I'm impressed how easily this gets there on a beta map from a brand known for "conservative" power tunes. Thank you for the great content!

That’s some serious power. Congrats! 🎉🎉

As always, great stuff. Tell Charles I expect to see him do a video of the kit for the R lol. This seems like this is be absolute best idea and option to go with for these cars!

Man, the R with this kit, and tune, would be so nasty.. without even doing any actual mods.. simply E85, and flex tune.. drooling just thinking about it

"oh step fuel line" 😅

I have owned flex fuel cars for a long time and love the stuff. Wish my new Challenger was flex , hope they make a kit for it for when its out of warranty.

That's pretty cool that someones figured out how to run E85 on the VW ECU. Even more amazing that VW have even made this a possibility!!!!

This pocket rocket sounds really good on the dyno. Nice wheels and paint color too.

My B7 1.8T can run on 50:50 93 and E85, as it shifts the LT fuel trim ~15%. Usually my 100% 93 LT on 215hp with TT injectors sits at -4%. That gives me some margin to the +15 LT boost cutoff. The torque increase is noticable.

I used to add about 2 gallons of E85 to my 99.5 Audi A4 1.8T full bolt ons with a mystery tune i got on Ebay...it was for 18psi so i put E85 in it and set my high boost at 25psi on a KO4. I ran it that way for almost two years.

Unitronic were going to release this for the Mk7 - I SO wish they would!!!

My only issue is having to switch back to the 93 tune when i know im going to be driving in an area that might not have e85, this solves that.

Maaaaate! That t-shirt is killing me! So appropriate!

I hope they make this for the Mk7 1.8T...I have E85 everywhere where I live!

Thanks a BUNCH for this video! Quick question: is it still recommended to run a tank of standard gas (93) every 2-3 tanks of E85?

I used to do an E15 mix in the summer and the butt dyno would feel like how the car boosts in the winter with cooler weather. maybe it was placebo, maybe not.

Good grief! Can you make one for a 981 Porsche Cayman S? This isn't a turbo, but I'm sure it could make more power. A simple reflash nets 27 horsepower on this 3.4 liter engine, but that costs $1200~! With E85 capability, this would make a good bit more than 27 extra hp and would make it worth the price. Great video! [I'd like to hear what the quarter mile times/speeds are like with the GTI on E85....]

I dont know if I overlooked it in this video. But what mods besides the intake and e85 do you have? Turbo elbow, charge pipes, intercooler? Or can you achive these numbers with just e85 , intake and exhaust?

Yellow is gorgeous on this car

6:23 If this wiggling method doesn't work--for example, on an older car with some rust built up like mine, or if somebody's watching this 10 years in the future--there are wiper puller arm tools that exist that can help get the arm off. What you DON'T want to do, that I did, is put too much pressure on the bottom of the windshield, trying to pry it off. That's a great way to break a windshield, and then you might have to spend $400+ on a new one.

I want a mk8 so bad 🔥🔥

I have a couple questions and they have nothing to do with this video. Lol. So i recently purchased a used 2020 VW Golf GTI which i am guessing is a MK7 because of the year. I also am pretty sure it is the performance package. Red gti on front and back. Red gti calipers. Had no idea it was tuned when i purchased it. All they told us was that it was straight piped. So we have no idea what kind of tune or what stage or anything like that. Recently it has started to have a long startup when turning the key. Sometimes it will start good and sometimes it will not. Second time you turn the key it will start up good. The epc light has came on a couple times. Itll lose power and start jerking when you try to accelerate over 30-35 miles an hour. But if you turn the car off and back on itll usually stop. Sometimes it takes more times than others. I have codes p0302 for misfire in cylinder 2. P0413 for secondary air injection valve circuit open. I switched my 1 & 2 coil packs to see of it was that. After doing so i got the same misfire code for cylinder 2 and cylinder 1 now has a p0301 code for misfire. But now i got another code that is p0300 and it says random/multiple misfire detected. The last code i am getting is p0420 and it says catalyst system efficiency below threshold. Since we werent told it was tuned we were putting regular gas into it. We recently changed that to 91 octane. I changed the sparkplugs. And now have 2 coil packs coming to change them on cylinder 1 & 2. I hope that fixes it. Lol. I honestly do not know alot about cars. Any help is appreciated.

Hi man sorry for going off topic but can i ask why do some mk8 gti get the old generation Gen3 engine with same IHI is20 and some like the UK/US ones use the new Evo4 engine and Garrett turbo?

You most likely will not see any performance gains above 55% ethanol on 95% of setups. The difference from 55-85% of ethanol is MAYBE (a big maybe) a degree of timing. We didn't make anymore power after 60% content with a 2867R on a mk7 flex tune.

Notification SQUAD!🔥🔥🔥

Anything after E40 and you’ll start seeing diminishing gains. This is because once you run a fuel that gets you close to MBT and making out the turbo there isn’t much left. You’ll hit a certain point where adding ethanol content will result in no power gains, unless you have a severely knock limited setup. You will however continue to see better turbo response due to the extra fuel mass ethanol requires. That more of a linear relationship to ethanol content.
