[0.00 --> 3.54] I said I wouldn't do it until it was at least 10,000 miles old.
[3.82 --> 6.08] But here I am at 7,500 miles.
[6.26 --> 8.98] I just tuned my Golf R.
[9.54 --> 9.94] Okay.
[10.08 --> 14.68] Now, when you say tune, there's a couple of different ways to interpret that when you're talking about the Golf.
[14.74 --> 16.24] Because they have several levels of tuning.
[16.42 --> 17.48] There's software tuning.
[18.18 --> 19.40] You've got to break it down for me.
[19.54 --> 20.18] It's weird, right?
[20.22 --> 22.04] So people say, oh, I've gone stage one.
[22.10 --> 23.24] I've gone stage two.
[23.32 --> 24.00] All this kind of stuff.
[24.10 --> 28.04] So I've gone stage one with an equilibrium tune.
[28.04 --> 34.68] I was at a car show at the weekend at the local tuning house in Raleigh, Black Forest Industries.
[35.40 --> 40.72] I took the R32 down there and exhibited that off in their kind of main exhibitor area.
[40.80 --> 42.42] And I took the R down there as well.
[43.04 --> 46.32] And nobody was interested in that one because it's too new and too common.
[47.14 --> 50.22] But I got talking to a few guys about tuning options and stuff like that.
[50.24 --> 53.46] And someone was selling what's called a Cobb Access port.
[53.46 --> 59.94] This is a tiny little cell phone sized computer that you plug into the OBD2 port of your car.
[60.74 --> 69.42] I then paid $175 to a company called Equilibrium Tuning to purchase a staged tune map.
[69.88 --> 75.04] So what they do is they go into the ECU and they remap all the valve timings and injections and all that kind of stuff.
[75.04 --> 83.02] And so it takes the car from being a 280 horsepower car to being a 370 horsepower car.
[83.52 --> 85.42] With no hardware mods required.
[85.88 --> 86.68] No way.
[86.78 --> 87.86] It's insane.
[88.08 --> 89.00] That's remarkable.
[89.38 --> 94.42] I did something similar to my RV and I think I got like a 10, a 10 horsepower improvement.
[94.66 --> 94.92] 10.
[94.92 --> 99.82] These four cylinder two litre turbo engines that are in the Golf.
[100.02 --> 102.76] It's the same engine as is in your GTI.
[103.16 --> 105.86] The only difference with the R is there's an uprated turbo.
[106.00 --> 106.96] So there's a bit of a bigger turbo.
[107.52 --> 110.18] And the R is all wheel drive versus your front wheel drive.
[110.58 --> 115.96] I tell you, if you've never got into tuning and you want to talk to someone about it and you've been thinking about it,
[116.04 --> 117.34] I would love to talk to you on Discord.
[117.34 --> 125.14] I won't take up too much more of the show about it, but just to say I'm giddy with excitement with the possibilities that this has unlocked for me.
[125.52 --> 126.12] Yeah, that's amazing.
[126.28 --> 131.54] And so can I flash my GTI with a software update in theory and see some sort of improvement too?
[131.74 --> 131.94] Yeah.
[132.68 --> 133.34] Oh, man.
[134.38 --> 135.56] Oh, boy, it's getting dangerous.
[135.68 --> 139.26] I think it's just about as much horsepower as you'd want with a two wheel drive car.
[139.48 --> 140.84] But of course, you know, what do I know?
[140.92 --> 145.10] But to me, it seems like it seems like if you get much more, I'd want to go all wheel drive.
[145.18 --> 145.92] That's so awesome.
[145.92 --> 152.84] I remember when I flashed my RV's ECU, it went from like, you know, it was a drive that you could do.
[152.90 --> 156.52] You know, you were driving a bus to it felt like I was driving more of a truck.
[157.30 --> 162.48] You know, that was a nice improvement just because the biggest change for me was it meant I could get on the on-ramp.
[162.74 --> 163.28] That's just it.
[163.44 --> 163.56] Yeah.
[163.66 --> 164.02] Yeah.
[164.14 --> 165.06] At speed.
[165.36 --> 167.06] And, you know, I just had her checked.
[167.72 --> 169.78] It's been flashed for probably three years now.
[169.84 --> 172.64] And I just had her checked yesterday and she just passed all her checks.
[173.06 --> 173.98] She's excellent.
[174.12 --> 174.74] Healthy as can be.
[174.74 --> 175.00] Yeah.
[175.00 --> 177.42] Made it back from California in one piece.
[178.06 --> 179.12] Yeah, we did.
[179.30 --> 186.38] And now it's weird because we basically moved out to get some work done and I had to rip out the Wi-Fi network.
[186.52 --> 189.36] And of course, my, you know, my Raspberry Pi server died.
[189.48 --> 192.08] So all of my services were down and I had to shut down my Pi hole.
[193.06 --> 194.58] And it's just strange.
[194.74 --> 200.00] It doesn't quite feel like home anymore because I don't have control over everything that I want.
[200.22 --> 201.96] And home is where the Wi-Fi is, right?
[201.96 --> 202.32] Yeah.
[202.32 --> 202.40] Yeah.
[202.50 --> 203.30] I don't have Wi-Fi.
[203.54 --> 204.26] I don't have internet.
[204.44 --> 205.26] It's so strange.
[205.42 --> 212.86] So after tonight's episode, after we're done recording tonight, I'm going to go home, I hope, and get like the Pi hole and get the Wi-Fi back online.
[212.86 --> 219.60] Well, I couldn't quite believe it when you messaged me this week and said that your home assistant Yella has finally shown up.
[219.60 --> 221.16] It's ridiculous.
[221.40 --> 222.94] It's here at perfect timing.
[223.36 --> 223.80] Ridiculous.
[224.00 --> 225.56] It's perfect timing, right?
[225.62 --> 228.34] Because the Raspberry Pi died on the road trip.
[228.52 --> 232.06] I get home from the road trip and the yellow's there on the porch waiting for me.
[232.20 --> 232.40] Yep.
[232.54 --> 234.14] I saw the shipping notification.
