Got a Mazda 3 turbo last December for my daily. Drove it 50k miles. The first mod I'm making is a big brake kit, wheels & tires. The brakes are the car's greatest weakness. OK until you do more than a minute or two spirited driving, then they fade hard. And I live in the mountains... so that happens a lot. Going with corksport probably. Wheels so I don't have to use shims, and with 17 inch diameter instead of 18 to help with potholes.

Love seeing Turbo Yoda on MCM! You should take a trip to the Skid Factory and check out the sick cars they've built! The Hako and the Crown etc etc.

The best advice is not to over do it. Never benchmark power levels to a race car. Always have a target in mind and STICK TO IT. Daily driving, reliability drivability and maintainability (RDM) is priority. Only then comes power, handling, etc.

Way more excited than I should be to see turbo Yoda on the channel again 😂

Gotta love turbo yoda. He makes every video just that little bit better.

I can't believe how much I smiled with the Turbo Yoda cameo, I really hope he's doing the work on the Levorg! Great stuff guys xo

Seeing Turbo Yoda again on MCM warms what's left of my heart🤘

Man I love you guys, not only are your videos helpful and informative, but you do it while having a laugh and not taking yourselves to seriously. Been watching your video's since it all started on a driveway and without a doubt you guys just get better n better, I look forward to your next installment.

Having owned VAG car for a couple years and changing between winter/summer tires, using a wheel alignment pin or "Tommy bar" is a game changer. I haven't seen you guys use one and definitely recommend it. I love the content! Keep it going!

Absolutely love this video! The only thing now would be to do another modernisation car video for those of us who have older cars for a daily but want more modern flairs - not just euro interior lights, but convert to LED, autofold side mirrors, revisit aftermarket central locking, as well as the bluetooth headset, niceties in the car, and all these little things that wouls make a brand new car owner on a budget feel like a million bucks.

Looking forward to seeing whatever Turbo Yoda does with the Levorg 😊

Hey guys, just want to say that I've been loving the golf content the last year or so. As a mk7 GTI owner myself, and engineer at that, this is absolutely the best golf content on youtube. You didn't mention which tune you flashed with the accessport, but I can't recommend a tuner like EQT or Stratified enough. Cobb doesn't put the time into the golf platform that they did on subarus, and looking at datalogs my EQT files run much smoother, with less knock feedback, all while making more power. Keep up the great content!

Love my MK7 sport, and I’m graduating with a degree in mechanical engineering in two weeks! Can’t wait to have some extra money to get a southbend clutch and go stage 1.

So happy you guys made your way back to the MK7. In my opinion, they are one of the most easily modifiable cars out there that have the looks, refinement, and practicality to make it THE BEST daily driver on the road. I'd argue that it also has one of the best motors as far as tuning and capability goes. Being able to push close to 2.5X the stock HP of the car and still being reliable is unheard of from every other car manufacturer.

Love this series. Got a basic A4 1.8 from 2014 and been installing minor bits and pieces, great to see "normal" cars still getting attention on this channel!

Loving the VW Golf build so far, guys! So so good! Also big shout out for getting me back into my love of cars and doing my own work. I now maintain and modify my Golf R myself. Made sure to rep y'all with my Super Garage hat at my track day, yesterday! :D

This content dropping SO right time! I'm considering to buy mk7 performance and I really really liked it at test drive! Love from Finland

Just because of the end bit I'm buying merch. I'm so happy that you guys are doing your own thing whilst everyone's doing 1600 whp JZ/LS/supercar builds. I love the fact you like a golf or a brz more than a lotus.

Would definitely recommend engine dog bone insert to remove bit of slack in transmission and reduce wheel spin 👍🏻

Love your guy's videos! makes me want to work on cars even more

The purity is real on this "GolfsWagon" 😂 I guess Turbo Yoda has been down to help out with the Grovel getting the flat 6 fitted( sorry don't the engine codes), can't wait to see SuperGramps 2.0!

Many its been so long since MCM chose some different parts. I'm so happy. Normally its all "durr muh Invidia exhaust" but they went cobb and im so happy ya'll did something different.

To everyone in the comments giving the boys a hard time about “boring or repetitive content” have you ever stopped and thought it could be just to fill the gapes between bigger series or build not to mention the current edit for the new feature film. I’m would rather have some content then non at all. Keep going boys! Love your work!!

Me and my older brother have been watching for like ten years now :) Im still not tired of you guys :)

Bought my mk7 gti specifically because of the Golf R series, its awesome to see you guys tackle a gti!

Golfswagon 😂 great video guys, thanks. Am a total newbie to the world of mods and slightly obsessed with my Golf even though its only a TDI - am very jealous of how that GTI sounds, and I only understood about 50% of what you talked about in the video but that's ok. Will keep watching and learning so I can do more than spray my alloys, and fit a splitter and side skirts. Looking forward to putting a stage 1 on it, but certainly will not be doing that myself! looking forward to seeing who wins out of the GTI and the R 😍

So, the last time I remember seeing Alan on your channel Moog was saying Honda to everyone every 5 seconds. This seemed like some gentle retaliation. And yes, I just want a simple chocolate milkshake! Great video as usual! Thank you 😊

Thanks for the end of the video! Sick of this new "era" where showing off your numbers and fancy brands are more important than enjoying your car and have fun with your mates! Keep up with it!

Loving all the golf videos, and Martin’s new, albeit, out of the blue passion for golfs!!!! Keep up the awesome content. These videos make me lol….. a lot. Thanks lads 😉

This is great. I have a 7.5 and just started mods. Thx guys

The fact they said big things are coming with the sti-vorg… and then a turbo yoda cameo. That man knows Subaru’s, I’m betting we will be seeing more of him!!

Turbo Yoda returns!

Yesssss!!! So good to see Alan back on this channel too

awesome stuff guys. Al being in Marty's GTi and saying it's a Honda. for those that remember, there's a pleasing circularity to this from when Marty had Supergramps worked on by Al, and during the episodes, Moog would ask "will this fit my Honda?"

Tires really are the best mod, wheels if you have large balloons. Tyre Reviews did a test with a Mk 7 GTI on 17" vs 18" vs 19" wheels (a couple years ago?) with the same tire model, same inflated diameter, and found the 18" was objectively the best. Less cabin noise than either the 17 or 19, better handling than the 17, more comfort than the 19.

Some channel lock pliers also work decent for exhaust hangers if you don't have a specialty tool. Open them wide and put the bottom tooth on the metal hanger (outside of bushing) & the top on the opposite side of the bushing then squeeze. 🤙

Great stuff, looking forward to what ever Al is over with you for.

Love the video I’m planning on buying a 2015 gti and am excited to do some of the mods you guys did here. Also very helpful video thanks!

Awesome and just in time. Oh my second MQB GTI. Had an MK7 which I then upgraded to MK7.5. Currently running an EQT Stage 2 93OCT tune (USA) on COBB AP, and EQT is literally the best ECU tune on the market right now. Performance Pack brakes, LSD and extra 10 HP are so damn worth it over a “standard” GTI and really helps to put the power down. I would recommend you guys stick with the stock DV, because the revised design is very robust and I have no issues running it on my stage 2 tune. I had a Forge BOV which sounded cool, but just gave me error codes after a few months and eventually failed. Love the MK7/7.5 and literally bought another one because the MK8 interior touch buttons were a deal breaker during my test drive. Keep it up guys been subscribed since day one !

The unexpected Turbo Yoda appearance after years was s amazing! Good to have him back !!

Sounds good considering the engine. Dope! Clean setup!

So keen to see Alan hopefully working on gramps v2 with the levorg.

Love the episode boys keep it up big fan of the golf🔥😉

That Moog scream while chasing that wheel haha! Super love how the Hond... Volkswagen is sounding, that turbo blow off just so amazing! So happy seeing Turbo Yoda from the backseat, did not even notice him until they talked.

Love the outtakes and Turbo Yoda guest appearance :)

Love this series, I have a mk7 gtd in white, it has some aftermarket wheels that fit properly (also 8.5j and all that) gti rear end etc. It's been mapped to around 220bhp and with the dsg goes like shit off a shovel. This is going to be a good inspiration for my future mods. Also so happy to see Al in the video and I hope he's the one building the levorg. 👌👌

I’m so glad you guys did this on a gti because I plan on getting one and doing some stuff to it

Great video as usual, even if VDubs aren't really my thing. As a vintage Mac enthusiast I loved seeing the vintage PowerBook 180c!

I cant wait to see what Al is doing to the grovel, or the 2 door sti.

You should do a video on how to clean your intake valves on those amazing turbo VW products you both have.

You can actually modify the original intake for more power as well. Was super easy to do on my mk7 with an oscillating cutting tool. I was just in Australia from the US this past month. Cheers mates!

So good to see Turbo Yoda back on the channel. That Golf looks like a lot of wheelspin...

Ahhhhhhhh my jaw dropped when Turbo Yoda showed up! Yessssss! Please start doing projects with your friends again, we miss seeing you and yoda and benny altogether in videos.

I added a Roush TVS supercharger to me Mustang GT and it's definitely not wrecked. It drives as easily as a stock car, still gets decent mileage and is fast enough to be pretty interesting at the dragstrip without having to cut it for a cage.

Best car you guys modded! Love the channel

So good to see Al back!!

Brilliant Honda series, everyone with car knowhow will agree that FWD is the only way to go in terms of motorsport potential.

TURBO YODA!!!!! I can only think of one reason he's there (aside from hanging with mates, of coursE). I'm stoked to see what he's going to do with the Grovel.

For exhaust hanger removals I've always had some good luck using a pair of channel locks between the backside of the rubber hanger and the flange on the end. When you squeeze it should remove it a good portion of the way.

Man this is awesome. Pretty much the same exact mods that I have recently done to my mk7 GTI. I'm hoping you got the dsg unlock from Cobb as well

I love how the airfilterbox makes the engine bay look, does cobb ship to the netherlands, and will it fit? (i've heard they have different stuff on germans overseas)

Return to form for MCM , great to see Al , possible co-lab with skid fktry?, loved the out take reel at the end. What is Marty’s intentions for the fridge on wheels?

Wise, wise words guys. I did appreciate the outro and completely agree with you.

the al cameo was gold thanks guys- al is the man

Just seeing Alan appear like that made me smile :) It's like when supergramps unexpectedly appear : * Legend has entered the room *

I've had my beloved Iriz from Proton for eight years now. I've replaced the original factory projector to an aftermarket version which houses the D4S bulb and my night drive satisfaction has increased ten-fold. Anther best thing about my Iriz's headlights is that it has a dedicated low-beam and high-beam, so I now have a total of six supposedly light beams. I'm planning to upgrade my wheels from 15" to 17" but afraid of the car losing it's value. Not to the marketplace, but my eyes because I'm going with a simple OEM look and looking for stock rims from any german brands. But, who knows... I might change my mind and end up doing everything I wanted 'coz the major modifications were those projectors and a new spray paint after seven years.

Love the GFB products. Brett is super helpful.

Very entertaining yet educational video, thank you

A flathead and wd-40 works well for the exhaust hangers. Just pry it enough to fit the straw in and spray inside on both sides.

When the backseat guest popped up it gave me a proper grin, glad to know things are friendly with them all. Got a bit worried considering we'd not seen him on the channel in a while

Another super quick mod on these is the dogbone mount. Multiple brands of inserts. Goes on in minutes and you legitimately feel the difference.

Installed a intake last year, and it sounds so good. I was too chicken to mess with the turbo inlet pipe haha.

GOLFSWAGON! I'm convinced Marty is just trolling the channel as people have been commenting for a while about the golf obsession hahaha

Love my 2018 Stage 2 GTI, have the Cobb exhaust. Great video and love for the gti mk7.5

First time watching you guys and you are awesome lol! I'm now a fan! I just purchased a 2019 Jetta GLI and I love the car but I have been looking up ways to upgrade it. Hopefully soon I can have my VW daily driver close to what you have done to that Honda.

You might need to code out "Starting vibration reduction" to prevent the power being cut to the wheels.

Perfect timing, Thanks for all the hard work guys.

Thanks mate 🎉

Nice video. I have a 2017 MK7 GTI SE DSG and absolutely love her. I must say that I disagree with the order of the mods on the GTI's. The first thing I did to mine was to replace the soft stock rear sway bar and plastic end links with a stiffer 034 bar and metal endlinks. The difference in handling was not subtle. The front end understeer was reduced and overall handling was much tighter with less body roll in the corners, and she's still comfortable on the street. It doesn't make sense to me to add more power without first sorting the suspension and handling. Next mods I did were air intake, turbo inlet pipe & hose and then a lighter set of stylish rims. My GTI is a great daily and I plan to keep on the upgrade mod path as budget allows. Looking forward to the rest of the build series on your GTI. Keep up the excellent work gents. Peace.
