The sigma six is definitely one of the best short shifters on the market. I love mine on my mk7.5 R

How much is it?

219$

which is crazy because your shifts are already pretty damn clean.

The Short Shifter I have in my 7.5 GTI is the Boomba Racing Adapter! But a GTI with a Short Shifter is always a must! Period!

How do you like it can you tell a significant difference

@@1stockmk7honestly it’s cool man. I like it a lot the throws are shorter. Like for example when you shift from neutral to first - stock you kinda hit your knuckles on the hvac controls depending on how you shift of course haha - with a short shifter you don’t hit it anymore. Shifts throughout the gears are shorter. Not like F1 short but loosely the same as this video if not shorter by a smidge. I like the adapter a lot took seriously 10 mins to install.

By far, THE easy-fix! Did it on my Mk8 '24 GTI. Maybe replace the shift bracket later when things were out

I did the Shop DAP Holy Shift kit, love it. You should also look into upgrading your bleeder block and clutch line, and remove the swirl valve too. Something I am going to do as well soon.

Favorite GTI channel by far, please make more content ❤️

I'm about to do this on my 7.5. Great video - DieselGeek page has EXCELLENT install procedure instructions too! The alignment procedure at the end of their video is worth watching.

Awesome video it definitely feels a lot better with the short shifter

Brother i literally just had one installed to my mk6r today what a freaken coincidence!!! I got an IE intercooler, with a stage 3 daily clutch too it drives like a dream

If you dont have an aftermarket clutch line, I did the ECS stainless line and it works well. Definitely changed the way my stock clutch felt when I did the cdv delete and line combo, that would be the last piece to your clutch system you’d be missing

I would recommend powerflex mount inserts for all three mounts (engine, transmission, and pendulum). That will tighten up your shifts significantly. It didn't add a noticeable amount of nvh to my mk6 after installing them along with the short shift kit once they broke in. Made shifting much more crisp, easy, and engaged.

Dope I have been wanting to do this to my Mk7.5 GLI

Bought the DG Sigma 6 two years ago for my MK7 GTI. Absolutely love it still to this day.

I have the 4H tech short shift bracket with 034 motorsport billet solid shift bushings on my polo, one of the best mods I’ve done makes it feel so much nicer

Great video! Dude are you still on the stock bottom end?! I assume you’re at least well over 430wtq on E right? Keep the vids coming!

It’s a good day when jewels uploads 😌

i have the DAP Holy Shift for my Mk 8 , similar design to the deiselgeek but with both brackets/bushings being aluminum

I did the clutch valve delete, spring delete, billet bleeder valve, stainless steel clutch line, metal cable bracket with solid bushings. I didn't really notice a difference until i installed the superpin 😂

550 gram knob from Biketworkz and the DG sigma 6 made a huge difference on my Mk8. I ordered the super pin to see if I can get to Civic Si/TypeR levels of shift quality. Full stainless clutch line, billet bleed block and a BMW clutch stop will round it out for an awesome package.

MK7 GLI with SHOPDAP holy shift kit. your video is awesome though.

That’s the area where I test my cars out to Pico lol Perfect street

Imo the diesel geek super pin was a huge change in how much slop was there previously to installing. But it was a pain in the ass ripping apart the whole interior

Follow up with the superpin and it gets crazy notchy. I have the BFI Knob, Sigma 6, upgraded shifter bushings and the superpin and the overall result is absolute minimal play and the feel of a bolt action rifle, lol.

I installed mine not long ago and I did have to realign mine a few times. I had to pull the side to side bracket and the front to back bracket to make it line up properly. I still do have some hesitation from first into second but it isn’t bad. I need to go back under the hood and mess with it a little more

I see you cruise on the 210 freeway in some of your videos. I live in Pasadena.

Definitely less travel now. Nice!

I have the APR short throw in the R best I have done

U should do the aluminum radiator from Mishimoto

You've got to race SportyMk7.

I put epoxy in the rubber bushes which made such a difference

No manual no party 🔥🔥

The metal insert by dieselgeek is also great but PITA to take the center console out and all that lol

Quick question. Recently got my MK7 GTI, bought it with EQT STAGE 2 and ARM DOWNPIPE with MagnaFlow High flow Catback. Besides intake and Intercooler, what would be a good next step? Inlet pipe? Still on IS20 for right now. Chasing reliable daily power. Not really race car status 😂 even tho at 400HP it’s basically a race car

Upgrade spark plugs if you haven’t. Inlet will help with spool

How were you changing without engaging the clutch

@Melbee_21

5 ай бұрын

if the car is off you don't have to engage clutch to shift. You can also do this while the car is on and coasting but you would have to rev match to align the synchros.

I have this one too. I like it but feel 2-3 is pretty long. Whatre your thoughts?
