    Customer Golf R Stage 3 DSG Build with VWR components

    Here is some details on a new Golf R build we have just completed for a customer.

    The build sheet is

    APR Stage 3 including:

    APR GTX Turbo upgrade
    APR Runner Flap delete kit
    APR RSC Exhaust system with standard tips for stealth
    APR Intercooler
    APR Fuel Pump
    VWR intake
    VWR Wheels
    VWR streetsport plus suspension & linear spring upgrade with adjustable top mounts
    VWR 6 pot brake kit upgrade with decals removed
    HP Sway bar upgrade
    HP Control arm upgrade
    HP Corner weight & tracksport wheel alignment
    HP DSG Software
    Haldex AWD controller upgrade



    This car has ~ 7,000km's on it from new - first step is a stock baseline dyno run - we do three uncorrected power runs so you can see a good average & the effects of heat soak on power.




    here are some build pictures:

    the strip



    Front sway bars & control arms going in




    turbo being bolted up



    Runner flap delete kit going in:





    Stage 3 plumbing:



    APR Intercooler vs Stock



    RSC Exhaust with stock tips custom welded on.

    Clearancing the strut towers for the camber plate adjusters:



    Probably the best Golf R suspension on the market that works so well on both the street & the track:



    The top plates - no noise, no NVH



    Installed - note the linear springs:







    VWR Brakes - debadged



    Aligned, height adjusted & road tested:







    The moment of truth:

    Holy Crap that thing would be a weapon!

    Still not a fan of the VWR wheels but the rest of it looks tidy!

    +1 i would love my car to have these mods. Have to agree with you on the rims too - not a fan, but jealous of the rest.

    Absolutely awesome - that would put a grin on your face outside rush hour traffic for sure

    (I really like the VWR wheels)
