The transition from the Mk7 to the Mk8 Golf R represents an evolution in Volkswagen's iconic hot hatch. While retaining the core attributes that make the Golf R a performance favorite, several changes to the platform mean that the Mk8 builds upon the strengths of its predecessor, incorporating advancements in design, technology, and performance.
Performance Tuning
One of the most effective ways to unleash the true potential of your Mk8 Golf R is through a remap. The new platform is already up on power from its predecessor but a map alone is now seeing the MK8 go from 320hp to 400hp.
Upgraded Exhaust System: Enhancing Sound and Performance:
The Mk8 comes out the factory very well balanced and handles impressively. For those looking to take that further then a decent set of coilovers wouldn’t go a miss. However, if your looking for really affordable modification which will reduce body roll and give your car a more aggressive stance then you can’t go wrong with a set of quality lowering springs.https://www.modcentraluk.com/product/eibach-volkswagen-golf-r-sportline-lowering-springs-mk8/
