TurboXS Dump Pipe and Recode Tuning for Golf R

[KRA21E]

Hi Fellow Golf R Nutters, i mean enthusiasts,

Just thought i might fill you in on yet another alternative to the usual overpriced suspects in the market...

I have spoken to Mark from Recode aka Port Hacking Automotive and they will be performing their final tests on the TurboXS Dump pipe along with the Recode Tune hopefully tomorrow.

Mark seems to be a very knowledgeable and genuine bloke and same goes for the guys at TurboXS so initial impressions are good. Can't wait for the final results.

If their existing products for Subies etc are anything to go by then we should be in for some very nice and competitive products!!

Interesting, I have used TurboXS in the past, very good performance results.

Hi Guys, just came across this thread, I think I spoke to you last week KRA2IE.
Things still have a little way to go and I wont be up there this week as I may have mentioned, the car(s) might be fitted up though.
The dump and centre section have to go through a testing process first the ensure it fits a number of vehicles properly and if necessary any modifications made to correct any issues. Once thats done its then ready for production. After this it usually doesn't take too long for it to become available. At the moment its frustrating as there is certainly a definite interest but nothing is actually available.. just yet.

For ourselves its then back to the dyno (either their's or our own) on both the manual and DSG cars to get some tuning revisions done to suit these dumps. In short you have to modify the wastegate tables in order to keep boost control happy so its a bit of stuffing around but once this is done you're right to go. So far we have quite a few brands covered.
Regarding pricing for the dumps and systems I still have no idea myself but they should be very worthwhile alternative for us in Oz

I know they have expressed an interest in offering some other hardware for both the GTI, R and Audi TFSI's too but more on that later.

Cheers

Mark

Sounds good and I'd rather spend my money on an Australian developed/made product than buy something from Europe or USA.

Looking forward to the finished product.

$1199 is a competitive price
Cant wait to see how it all goes.

First pipe was fitted to my car today. Took it for a spin around the block tonight and I'm happy with it . Turbo seems to spool up even faster than with the APR DP that was on previously. Just wish it had been ready for the Sydney dyno day and I would have had the highest powered R . Just have to have some fine tuning done by Mark then get back out to EC and crack into the 12's.

Is an ECU map required with fitting the DP like this? or can it be fitted to a stock R without any other mods?
