  • Hey all! I may need some help.
Any recommendations on popcorn limiters. Or is there a way to make the car back fire when shifting? Just anything to get literally  any popping and banging at any point would complete me!!!??? :grin:

It's possible. You need a remap and a special one tuned for that. Try one of the tuning companies.

I'm getting a Stage 1 from Celtic Tuning this week but seen this on their website so it is possible.

The TCR already sounds better than any other golf IMO as stock but I'll be in touch with them next week to see if there is a tweak in the software to open flaps.

Hang on, diesel doesn't explode. It gets warmed up and expands, then evaporates. Injecting diesel when the exhaust ports are open, isn't going to cause a pop or bang like it does in a petrol car.
Red Mk6 gone replaced with a white Mk7 which has gone too. Green Mk2 here to stay.

There are tuners out there offering a hooligan tune for an oil burner... Even they say you might think that not possible but it is

TCR exhaust doesn't have flaps to open. Pretty sure only the R exhaust had flaps.

Can they map it to blow smoke rings?
At least that’d be amusing.

I don’t know, just know from someone else the TCR exhaust is unique to that model. I know I have a neighbour with an R and he just whimpers past with hardly any noise 🤣🤣
