Been going down the rabbit hole of hearing how amazing Garrett Powermax V1 Hybrid Turbocharger(s) are and wow, it really is incredible. Yet, something currently standing out to me is on their website is this: https://www.garrettmotion.com/racing-and-performance/performance-catalog/turbo/2014-2018-vo...

Had work done on my car recently (2016, 6C, TSI 1.8 ), new spark plugs, intake & intercooler as well as a performance clutch. Garage done a grand job! Yet, they have forewarned of issues the mechanic has noticed during my initial work, I'm due to go back after driving 750 miles so realistically ...

Anyone have a solution for an issue with a 6c polo gti or any similar car in which the left daytime running light/side light message appears and it doesn't work until you go over a bump and restart the car? Just wondering if there's a permanent solution given that my right one has no issue, left is ...

If it's just the left side? I'd check for a broken spring on that side. Does the car look like it sits lower on one side or the other? Its the right wheel rubbing off the inner part of the car when the wheels locked to the left. It doesn't appear to be a spring as I've used the car for ages no issu...

The tires I bought are Michelin Pilot Sport 5 215/40 R17 Y (87). These are the same size as the previous tires as well.

Ever since taking ownership of my Polo GTI 1.8 (2016). I've noticed that if I do a full lock to the left on the steering wheel it appears as if a loud noise of the tyre making impact with some part inside the car occurs. I think the last tyre was more worn down to this which was on the car from even...

First of all, wow! Thank you very much this is very comprehensive so I greatly appreciate the time and effort you put into this for me. I will look into all of these, though the garage I'm getting work done at currently only fit parts they supply, which I imagine they will not be able to get all of...

I'd recommend a sports catalyst and not a downpipe without a catalytic converter. Your car will smell and also fail MOT due to CO emissions. If you want to go a bit more on the power line, you could consider a turbo inlet elbow, turbo muffler delete (or both) and even an upgrade to an IS20 or IS38 ...

Hey guys, I've been quoted by what I believe to be the best garage near me for parts to upgrade the performance of my GTI 1.8 2016 6c car with a remap/parts. I'm fairly new to adding anything to a car, I believed what the garage was recommending was good as I seem to be able to reflect this onto wha...

Sorry if this gets your hopes up, though I was looking into doing the same thing and it seems you have all the answers already mostly. I figure you can't just ask the seller of these what the difference is? I see there is a price difference which implies one may do more, especially if that is the on...
