Do you have the silencer on the decat or no? I’ve bought the 3.5inch TRACKSLAG decat without the silencer and the full trackslag exhaust to go with it, hoping for it to be proper loud
I went with the non silenced version at 1st, I have another video on the tube with drive bys and it’s quite loud tbh. I’ve now switched to the silenced pipe and it’s a more mature sound and not as asbo as the non silenced version but still gives a nice tone when you give it some beans.
Hi mate, On a cruise it’s not loud mate only on cold start and when giving it the beans hell breaks loose. Since this video, I’ve switched to the silenced pipe and the tone is more mature. The unsilenced version is quite loud on chat so if your not into the asbo life, the silenced version will be best and this option still has a nice tone on chat.
Mine was dyno'd 335bhp standard, and then remapped to 411bhp. I then had a 200 cell Wagner sports cat and further remap to make 455bhp/634nm, and it took many runs, and lots of letting it cool between runs to get that. With a Tu HPFP my tuner said it might make 470-480 but no more on 99ron fuel. Not a chance this is 500. Lets assume this is 475bhp, it's still a lot, and it looks like standard brake discs. Oh dear, I found them lacking at 455bhp and had dimpled and grooved discs fitted all round. Add a Pure800 turbo and this car might be 540-550 bhp on 99ron. Needs meth to make 600. I enjoyed my 4 years with the M140i, but at the end of the day, it's a 118i m sport chassis with a mega engine and box. I now have an OG M2, completely standard, and it is on another level completely. Not as fast in a straight line, but who cares about straight line racing, that is for plebs and posers. This car could have 900bhp and it still wouldn't see which way my M2 went on a twisty b road 🙂
Tbh the car was fast, definitely over 450 imho. Understand with this specific tuner and on the tuners dyno, cars can achieve this magical 500hp. If this has been verified on another roller like JKMs or SRR is unknown as in the south of the UK, these 2 places are renowned for being “heart breakers” in terms of dyno runs. But like you say, M lite cars will never compare to a full fat M car.
@@wavvyboost No B58 engine, with just a downpipe and a remap, can get more than 480 bhp on standard 99ron fuel, it's just not scientifically possible matey. This fact has actually been proven on videos by people who really know what they are talking about. An engine is basically an air pump, and when you calculate the potential torque possible from the size of the bores, to the amount of air you can get in & out of them, the amount of boost a standard turbo add, the fuelling and the limitations of all parts, there is a maximum theoretical average, and for a totally standard engine, this is between 410 and 420 bhp (there are obviously some variations that occur naturally). It is sooooo easy to manipulate that figure by 1) letting the car ride the dyno rollers which can add around 15%-20% to the torque figure, 2) putting the ambient air temp sensor for the dyno in a hotter place adding another gain, or 3) using a slightly different conversion rate, when calculating the bhp figure from the torque reading. I watched a guy prove this by remapping an M140i and on his dyno it made over 500bhp ..... from just a remap lol. We both know that is not possible, but he has a dyno print out to 'prove' it lol.
@@Poontang123 You shouldn't assume such things, it makes you sound like a troll. I wrote the car off, and used the insurance money to buy an even better car, an OG M2. I worked in the motor trade for many years, and owned 6 BMW's in my last 7 cars, most of them tuned, so I am far from a 'snob'.
I'm 463bhp with a high flow 200 cell cat, Bosch B58TU HPFP, xhp stage 3 flash, turbo and manifold blankets. And last but not least the tune is by Litchfield. A friend has a M340i 500bhp by a different tuner, once moving I gap him 😂😂😮
@@user-xl7wc9rm5h it does rev easier and you can notice this straight away. Have heard it can increase HP by 2-3 or so HP, but such a small increase isn’t noticeable.
Mines at 500bhp . And your wrong it's not ej255 its ej257 . Gb270s have semi closed deck 2.5l . Wrx 2.5l is ej255 and sti is 2.5l ej257 so please give right info out. I've had mine over 14 years and within gb270 community mines highest with mods / power .
Awesome , want these on mine , got that United Grey also , best colour for the car 🔥 he dont do these anymoore ? Dont really like the new slim leds they do now.
Made a massive difference to the rear end look. he has stopped this style, but I wanted OEM+ rear at the time. I have these inners for sale now if you want. PM me on insta @wavvyboost if interested.
Tbh hard to tell for me, I got the black series bushes and engine mount inserts so the cars quite solid upfront. It’s deffo moved the vibrations into the cabin more but I feel the engine inserts increased this the most.
Hi guys how did you manage to change the freewheel? Did you have to take the chain off or could you cause slack from the tensioner then get it in and loop the chain around as I’m about to do this on my TTS
