Wrap Weekends #8 - Volkswagen Golf GTI Clubsport
a hot hatchback for Wrap Weekends #8 - the VW Golf GTI Clubsport. and let me tell you, this is smoking!
for this one, i slammed it to the ground, widened it with a Pandem bodykit, and wrapped it in this gold-on-green Rotiform-branded livery. it's an amalgamation of inspiration of the branding and style of Off-White, Rotiform, and a few Mk7 Golf GTI builds i saw on the internet. this Golf will certainly turn heads wherever it goes.
fun fact: my username is not actually from this car, as it predates this by a few years lol. i took it from the rare Audi A1 Clubsport quattro, which is one of my lowkey favorites to this day.

034Motorsport’s Carbon Fiber Fresh Air Duct
This air duct is designed to better route cool, dense air from the front of the car to the airbox, this high-quality carbon fiber piece also yields a noticeable improvement in induction and turbocharger sounds.
Features:
High-Quality Carbon Fiber Construction
OEM+ Fit & Finish
Improves Airflow from the Front of the Vehicle to Airbox
Eliminates Factory Plastic Blockoff at Core Support
Increases Induction & Turbocharger Sounds
Offers Simple, Bolt-In Installation
With this system, 034Motorsport wanted to be sure that they were delivering their best product in the market, and hence they put their product through different tests such as CFM airflow, pressure drop, and a Horsepower and TQ test, in order to quantify the performance gains. The results are outstanding for this system as it outperforms stock intake in every test.
CFM Gains
CFM stands for “cubic feet per minute” of airflow. The higher the CFM number, the higher the horsepower an intake can support. Tested at 28″ of water, the 034Motorsport had substantial flow increases over the factory intake.
Stock Intake: 553 CFM @ 28” H2O
S34 Intake with 034 Turbo Inlet: 908 CFM @ 28” H2O
Pressure Drop Test
The difference in ambient air pressure and the air pressure measured at the turbocharger inlet across the engine’s rpm range is known as the Pressure Drop. The higher the pressure drop at any given rpm, the more restrictive the intake system is, reducing airflow.
Stock Intake -1.00 psi
S34 Carbon Fiber Intake – 0 psi
Horsepower & Torque Gains Test:
The last but not the least test to validate the 034Motorsport S34 Carbon Fiber Intake’s performance was the horsepower and torque gain test which provided substantial increases in horsepower and torque on both stock turbochargers and ones with upgraded turbochargers alike.
Stock Intake: 226 WHP / 296WTQ
S34 Carbon Fiber Intake: 235 WHP / 305 WTQ
Peak Crank Gains: 31 HP & 27 TQ @ 6,000RPM
On top of these results, the engineers designed a clever air filter for this system that not only prevents unwanted movement but also allows compliance to accommodate engine movement under varying load conditions. This, in turn, maximizes airflow and minimizes filter shrouding, which is an added benefit in comparison to what other designs on the market do. We recommend this product to the owners of Audi and Volkswagen as this intake has not only the right design for the job but also performs above and beyond compared to these vehicles’ stock systems
Fitment:
Audi A3 8V 1.8 TFSI 2015-2016
Audi A3 8V/8V.5 2.0 TFSI 2015-2020
Audi S3 8V/8V.5 2.0 TFSI 2015-2020

VolksWagen Golf GTI MK7 Review.
By Emmanuel Omeri.
Now that we have a 'public holiday', here is my review of the Mk7 VW Golf GTI. I have been lucky enough to use one laying around the yard waiting for a potential buyer. I’ll start with a rather famous statement by Chris Harris. He made this statement while reviewing a Mk7 GTI; ‘Anyone who knows anything about cars quietly respects the Golf GTI’ If my experience is anything to go by, I must agree. I get random nods of approval from people quite often.
I was lucky to lay my hands on a relatively highly specced version. It came with the bigger 8 inch touch screen (Some come with a tiny display). I also got electric leather seats. And most importantly it has DCC (Dynamic Chassis Control)
Now DCC is a fantastic piece of kit. You can basically transform your car from an aggressive track biased weapon to an extremely comfortable grand tourer. Most GTIs coming in do not have DCC. I was really lucky to get it.And there is quite a stark difference when you drive the car using the different modes. In sport mode, the chassis becomes stiff, suspension hardens,steering heavy, gear shifts aggressive, exhaust note changes (although it’s a fake pumped in noise).
In comfort it feels like you are driving a midsize luxury sedan. It is Mercedes E class levels of comfort. Everything is just soft and supple. I drove on comfort 99% of the time and only put sport when I found a nice twisty back road where I can safely cause some chaos .
Eco is my ‘I am running out of fuel mode’ . I have used it three times when my fuel range was at less than 10kms and I wasn’t sure how far the next petrol station is. In this mode, the car coasts when going down hill or on a very flat surface.
Enough about DCC. VW really did well in balancing performance, practicality and fuel efficiency. It makes it a car you can genuinely use every day. If you don’t go off-road, it is all the car you need. Probably less than 3% of you will be able to keep up with the GTI on the road. This is a car that will get to 100kph in the mid 6 seconds and achieve a top speed of about 250kph and still be comfortable. Subaru STis & Mitsubishi Evos will perform slightly better but a lot of compromises are made when it comes to comfort, fuel efficiency and everyday useability.
Talking about fuel efficiency. I averaged 9.1 km/l in just over 2,000 KMs of mostly city driving(You can see it’s city driving because my average speed over that distance is 22kph). On the highway, this car will give you 12-15kpl at speeds of 100-140kph.
And it’s good for kids too. It has child seat isofix points and. Boot space big enough for luggage and I think it will also fit a stroller without much of a struggle.
It’s not all rosy though. This car has its drawbacks. And it pains me a bit to say this, but German cars feel like quality cars but they tend to cheap out on things you usually don’t see. For instance, the engine sump is made of plastic. One wrong move and a rock or even a bump may puncture it and you lose all your oil. This can be catastrophic if the driver does not notice. The car also sits quite low. This can easily be remedied though, just fit a sump guard. There are some quality ones from Sump Guard Centre Nairobi.
The car also tends to have coolant consumption issues. This is a widely reported issue globally and most times it is the water pump and the thermostat housing that are faulty. This problem affects most MQB platform cars from Audi and VW. The original manufacturer water pump is very low quality to be honest. You are better off with an aftermarket part. The original can fail even on cars with less than 50,000kms mileage.
The mentioned parts already failed on this specific unit. I replaced the water pump, the thermostat housing, coolant shut off valve and few other bits and pieces. And this is not a cheap car to run at the moment. Expect up to 6 figure repair bills. Or at least high 5 figure bills.I had to import certain things and that is usually expensive. Make friends with someone who knows how to import car parts very fast. You will need him . Also, I always recommend that you have a kitty for your car in case of emergencies.Depending on your car, your kitty should be anywhere between 50k-1million.
However, the gearbox and engine are reported to be quite reliable on the GTI. Some have issues but they aren’t as widespread as the coolant consumption issue.But the most important question, does it make me smile when I drive? Yes! Too much actually.
My recommendation? Just buy your dream cars.

TOP 5 VOLKSWAGEN MK7 GTI BODY KITS
youtube
This is a particular type of kit and has a classification it's called a level 3 wide body and our son says you should do a rating system for it and you could work a deal with Wikipedia where you have a blog attached to it and it would be one that checks to make sure the person's real and then you can vote with a comment on how much faster it made the car go and a lot of people will vote and you can put the number in there and the computer can recognize the higher numbers automatically and you just put the number you can comment later and people think it's great they heard the idea go out to see raise an eyebrow
This first kit and we didn't count five by the way I think there's three the first one makes it go faster and it's all on the Volkswagen golf GTI performance vehicle and it's the V4 and it's all the same year I think it's 2014 and it goes from 0 to 60 in about 4.8 seconds to 0 to 60 and 3.9 seconds and the quarter mile from about 11 and then down to 9:00 and top speed from about 180 believe it or not up to 2:20 and people like it and the rating system would help it'll make it really famous these kits work and we want to do plants on kits on the Camaro and firebird they'd make it go from 250 to about 480 and if you modify the exhaust and top in it goes about 600 but really these numbers are real this Kit's real is looking at it and he's thinking about how cool it would be to get some speed off of the car and you guys think if he had a limiter if he'd be in trouble and you like that kind of stuff and we frankly do not like here attitude and style and he's not really trying to sell that anymore there's too much of it it's all over the place then again he's saying it but then you're saying it and you're saying he's a hot head and driving around he would get in fights and stuff and we really don't need that stuff I don't need a lot of this crap that you shovel everyday and you go after each other so often that the whole world thinks that you just sick people and you've already said enough basically oops and they just don't want to hear anymore so what we're saying is you should take a hike with all your extra crap but....
If your son gets this car the car will become famous with just a class 3 wide body kit and it gains 40 miles an hour and that doesn't include high performance stuff the motor you're probably end up going 250 or 260 and it can handle it with tires and rims and the exhaust and sound cool not too cool and you have to put coolant in but really it's not much work it's all topical and people love it okay they are getting in the mood it's going to be a hell of a day today it really is there's a lot of people interested in this kind of stuff and helpful there's a lot of foreigners who love it a lot of Asians love it and a lot of people who are acting like them in California they need to go faster this is already built it's a sturdy car they make them new and you can outfit new ones and the motors are better for all of these actually all the years and they hold stuff too the top speed we have 260 with the engine modifications with an extra 500 lb to go to 220 we were harder to handle but it stiff suspension
We like his idea of posting this it's a good idea they saw how well it handled and looked at it but they don't get it it's also front wheel drive so it works in all sorts of weather it has a lot of room in it so you can open the window and close it and get air if you have a problem with snowed in and things like that that you can sleep in it by putting the back down and there's tons of room and put their luggage in the seats front seats people like it I mean it's really a utility vehicle but it's small fast and consume around town
They're actually thinking about getting it down here and he said if I don't have any money I need to tell you to hang on to it until I get money cuz I don't want to spend it all just driving around and it makes sense there's nowhere for him to drive to so that's what he's going to say and that's the plan and he says what planet
Thor Freya
Olympus
Zues
So out of my husband's mouth and his innocent boy still mind you he said they're going to give me a job they're going to take me to planet a****** and of course he means these people
Hera
Now wait a minute okay it's probably true but we're focusing on him cooking what looks like some plastic on the tray even though he's scraped It off and heard him say it it's pretty much gone
