You guis are out of your mind …. 1.700 $ for and is38 ??? Wtf is that ??? Comes with 1kg of gold ???
Y bougth mine brand new for 860 euros ….
Com on 1700$$ you are crazy
That was the best part of Interstellar, especially the music.
Easy job. It's even easier than it was made to be in this video.
Wow, thank you for this video, was curious to see it done but you guys provided step by step. Thanks
YES! Thank you for this! Thanks paul!
No way I am going to attempt this.
Still watched the entire video.
That’s the cleanest turbo inlet I’ve ever seen lol
Is there tunes available now for the IS38 upgrade on a 1.8?
Does that "turbo muffler delete" actually make a difference? I know the part has been around a long time, and I thought people said it doesn't make any difference…but I've seen a couple builds that throw it in.
Great video. Wish we had this video a month ago when i helped a buddy install his is38. We went to torque the mounting bolts on and snapped a bolt off in the block.
Great video, what tune would you guys recommend for a 17 GTI with PP 6-Speed? I’m leaning towards UM $600 tune which bumps up HP/Torque a good bit. Thoughts or recommendations?
