Thanks,
I just can't wrap my head around spending $4000+ for 38BHP increase from stage 2+ to TTE420. I wish I could overlap the two dyno sheets from APR to see the difference across the entire powerband.
Then go for their Stage3 GTX2867R.

It will be 138hp increase from 2+, not 38
Normally...right. I'm aware his location and why I felt the need to post "they would need the car". They have told me they would tune mine with either the EFR 6758 or the TTE420 if I get the car to them and they keep it as long as needed. I personally would just go with APR and the TTE420 so tuning is easily accessible. But, if a trusted custom tuner is local...choose any one you like.No custom work normally, thats why I have not used them in years. Great off the shelf stuff though. They are here near me in Southern California, the poster is in CT. Best for him just to find someone in his area that has tuned a 480 on a Golf R before. I am going to AUTuning in Huntington Beach CA for my custom tunes. 1000 for initial tune and 500 for versions of that. All dyno tuned.
I'm talking from stage 2+ Golf R (K04) not a K03, sorry
Sorry forgot you said Golf R in the beginning. As one who dared to go from K04 to something larger I can tell you that it is much more expensive than just buying the turbo and if you are estimating 4K, set aside 8K + a credit card for the unexpected. I would go with a more substantial turbo than the TTE 420 otherwise just stick with K04 it is so solid. To me at least, I am not going to spend thousands for a 38hp increase. To make any significant difference you need to add 100+ hp and then your car needs to be ready for it.
If I were you and I wanted something I could just bolt on myself and run, I would go with the IE450 kit. I would upgrade to their downpipe and midpipe. That is a direct kit specific to the Golf R 450hp to 500hp with race fuel. Yes it costs to play. That alone in parts is 8K if you install it yourself.
In my mind K04 is the last good deal for the MK5/6 FSI motor, after that it just gets very very expensive if you want to do it right and enjoy the same trouble free experience most of us have with a good K04 setup.
Did anyone ever get info on the RS3 injectors as far as flow pattern and where they max out at? I'm sure others are wondering also. Let's not keep secrets. Let's share info [emoji41]

So now the question is, is eurodyne able to tune for them and who would make the base file?I contacted AKS tuning and they confirmed the RS3 injectors can support up to 550bhp and 600bhp on race fuel

so the guys on the tfsi page on facebook said the rs3 injectors dont fit in the head? something about the head needing to be machined?
Is anyone running these yet? There are a few guys on nefmoto running them. They say the spray pattern is better and it flows more. I'm about to order this kit, if shipping is reasonable.I contacted AKS tuning and they confirmed the RS3 injectors can support up to 550bhp and 600bhp on race fuel
