492HP VW GOLF R MK7 REVIEW on AUTOBAHN [NO SPEED LIMIT] by AutoTopNL
The Key to Unlocking Performance: Alesio's Turbocharged VW Golf R
As we step into the cockpit of this modified VW Golf R, it's hard not to feel a mix of excitement and trepidation. The car's 492 horsepower and 600 Nm of torque are formidable forces that demand respect. With the seatbelts securely fastened, we're ready to unleash the beast. In manual mode, the driver must carefully plan each shift, as the sudden bursts of power can be intimidating for both the driver and oncoming traffic.
The sound system is another story altogether – ear-shatteringly loud. As we accelerate from 0-100km/h, the car's exhaust note becomes a sonic boom that shakes the very foundations of our surroundings. We're forced to turn off traction control to allow the car to truly unleash its fury. The driver who dares to approach us must be prepared for a Full Throttle experience like no other.
Alesio, the car's owner, has upgraded the drivetrain with Progressive tuning software, which consists of 27 files meticulously calibrated to optimize performance. This expertise is on full display as we launch into first gear and accelerate away from the starting line. The DSG gearbox shifts with lightning speed and precision, its smoothness a testament to the engineers' dedication to creating an exceptional driving experience.
As we navigate through the urban landscape, it's clear that this car is designed for speed – and by extension, sound. Alesio has maintained stock suspension, brakes, and other components, ensuring that the ride remains comfortable despite the car's monstrous performance capabilities.
To put the Golf R's prowess to the test, we conduct a series of laps around the track. Our goal: to set new records for acceleration and speed. The results are nothing short of astonishing – 0-100km/h in just 3.39 seconds, and an astonishing 7.35 seconds to reach 200km/h.
As we take a moment to catch our breath, Alesio reveals his plans to further modify the car with a turbocharger from the BMW M235i. The potential increase in power is palpable, and we can't wait to see how this beast will perform on the track.
Throughout the day, we're treated to an array of impressive driving skills – some from professional racing drivers, others from enthusiastic enthusiasts who live for speed. The atmosphere is electric, with everyone pushing each other to new heights.
As we come to a halt at the final turn, Alesio takes center stage once more, sharing his gratitude and thanking us for the opportunity to showcase his car. This incredible modified VW Golf R has left an indelible mark on our hearts – and ears. We can't wait to see what Progressive tuning has in store next.
The Legacy of Performance: What's Next for Alesio?
As we bid farewell to this extraordinary machine, we take a moment to reflect on its journey so far. From humble beginnings as a turbocharged Golf R, Alesio's creation has evolved into a veritable speed demon – thanks in large part to Progressive tuning.
If you're wondering what the future holds for this beast of a car, rest assured that there are plans to further boost its performance capabilities. With the addition of more power from the BMW M235i turbocharger, Alesio's Golf R is poised to become an unstoppable force on the track.
In the meantime, we invite you to check out Progressive tuning on Instagram – where they share their incredible work with the world. Who knows what other speedsters await us around the corner?
"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enit is ridiculously loud bye buddy everything is gold that's a Golf R bye what's up ladies and gentlemen and welcome to this POV review by autotop and L my name is Max and today I'm going to show you around this viewers car this is alesio VW Golf 7R and it is the fastest and loudest Golf R we've ever had on our Channel it is ridiculous on both counts it is absolutely insane uh so today I'm going to show you around it show you all the cool stuff on it uh show you why it is so fast and loud and then we'll take it for a little drive towards the Alan for an autan blast but before we begin don't forget to subscribe and hit the notification Bell if you want to receive updates when we upload a new video and go check out alesio on Instagram alesio mk7r this has been tuned and calibrated to the max so um on the outside it is completely stock I think yeah it's completely stock apart from the exhaust so we've got regular vwr Wheels regular vwr brakes but we do have these Mell and Pilot Sport 4S tires absolutely awesome nice and sticky uh we've got a blue car from 2015 and it is a three-door without the panoramic roof so it is quite a light uh version of The Golf R this which is great of course if you want to be very fast uh you can see the progressive tuning sticker and alessio's handle on Instagram right here and at the rear we've got a custom 3-in exhaust completely straight front to back Decat everything it is ridiculously loud it is insane ear bleeding loud uh you will hear that of course in a minute uh we also have this diffuser which looks kind of cool nice and racy and as I said other than that it is completely stock on the outside so let's check out the engine bay because of course we've got the ea8 2 L 4- cylinder turbocharged engine with stock 300 horsepower and 380 newm of torque but as you can see this is not talk so a few of the mods well I think it's all of them but the most important ones we've got a VW racing high performance induction system r600 it also has a goast bits diverter valve it's got a different high pressure and low pressure fuel pump a different intercooler it's got a tte 475 turbo an oil catch scan uh TVs software for the DSG gearbox and as I said that custom 3in straight exhaust so it is quite a bit but it also develops quite a bit of power so now with this calibration it's got 492 horsepower and 600 newm of torque which is the limit for this gearbox the torque uh so if you want more torque you can go for the DQ 250 gearbox which is this one with a TVs clutch or you can go DQ 381 or DQ 500 so those gearboxes can take more torque but this is already so freaking fast really really crazy so let's take a look on the inside because we've got a gorgeous carbon fiber steering wheel really nice and that's it other than that it's completely stuck oh no it's not got you there it is not stock on the inside because look at that everything is gone that is freaking dedication uh this saves around 50 kilos uh alesio thinks so it is completely gone everything in here as well it's got no wiper I mean that is freaking dedication and other than saving weight um it doesn't save your ears because without all that stuff it is even louder in here so we'll start it up but I'm not going to rev it because it's actually too loud to rev uh near these houses here so get the key start it up and we'll go to race mode Let's Go Blue seat belts also very cool yeah we'll go for sport 492 horsepower and 600 NTM that is a lot in a VW Golf oh my God it is so loud so we'll go for manual mode and you honestly have to plan your Full Throttle moment because those bikers and other people around they really don't like you that's how loud it is okay so second gear that is crazy Jesus oh I'm so sorry everyone who lives near here I am so sorry that's turn off traction control oh my God it is absolutely insane but the drivability of the car is really good it actually feels it feels pretty much stuck you know it apart from that crazy sound but alesio does have a remote for the exhaust for the valve to close it he says it's a little bit louder than stock but it's perfectly fine it just didn't leave me the remote so I can't turn it off or close the valve but I am honestly I mean I am a little bit ashamed for all these people here it is that loud so I'm going to yeah pass these houses W and it is really really fast man oh man you can really feel that DSG software upgrade the shift is crazy fast and gives you a nice little texture on the upshift like like a little bit of a hit through the drivetrain oh woo but the power delivery is really good it is very it is very smooth actually actually so uh Progressive tuning actually have like 27 files on this car so that's how much they calibrated the software for this car it it is absolutely crazy but what I really like is that alesio kept the car stock so it's got a stock suspension stock brakes everything is stock and it's absolutely fine it's nice and comfy I mean you could drive this car every day if you uh would want blood coming from your ears every day but you could drive it every day because it's still quite comfy oh my Lord that is crazy so at the beginning I said that this is the fastest VW Golf R we've ever tested it um that is from 0 to 100 and from 100 to 200 but I'll show you guys the 0 to 100 right now there's no one behind me stopping here foot on the brake Full Throttle Bo control and that's 0 to 100 now the fastest we've been able to measure is 3.39 seconds which is crazy 3.39 so I'm going to

Throttle oh that's loud holy moly that's loud as I said it's fast and it's loud that's 280 no problem Jesus that's insane so the sound is insane but the speed as well because it just keeps going and for a 4 cylinder turbo charged engine that is really aggressive it just keeps accelerating man oh that was really loud I think that was a flame as well because that was really like beefy and the fastest 100 to 200 time U measured with this car is 7.35 seconds which is absolutely insane that's faster than a Ferrari 458 for example that's absolutely insane it is it is so quick and I mean I have
