How to build the PERFECT B58 BMW M240i / Full BMW mod list 

That’s sick! I haven’t heard a single exit yet but I’m sure it sounds good. You’ll definitely love stage 2+, especially with a e85 mix if you have some near you

That's why u get a flipping LSD....

Yeah definitely, I think the only time it really feels different is in corners or by size otherwise they drive very similar. Both great series and such a blast to drive

@@Broke-Media I totally agree, and ever since I upgraded to KW V2, bigger breaks, sway bars and strut bar this thing was great on the track.

@@Gearsandco that’s awesome man, I should’ve looked more into upgrading some of that stuff myself

Thanks man! Me too

Thanks man! Sounds like you got a pretty awesome build! Great input tho, it really is a weapon and such a great platform to learn on as well

Where you getting MOTs with that down pipe

@@user-fg7zh2ll6e luckily where I live we don’t have any testing, but I know a lot of people who do switch back to the stock downpipe every couple years to pass emissions since it’s a relatively easy part to swap out and that’s pretty much the only way you can pass easily

@@Broke-Media yeah I’m looking to get a m240i that comes with the M performance exhaust and if it’s not loud enough get the mid resonator out and still should pass fine

@@user-fg7zh2ll6e yeah you should be fine running that setup, removing the cat on the downpipe is what seems to raise a red flag so you can either keep your stock cat to switch when needed or try to run a high flow catted downpipe

Yeah I’m sure my neighbors aren’t as big of fans..😂 appreciate it!

Appreciate it bro, I think so too🤝

Congrats man! You’re gonna love it. I definitely recommend at the very least a stage 1 tune for sure

@@Broke-Media Did you do a transmission tune as well? I'm only looking to get to 400hp so not sure if it's worth it.

@@karl5428 yes I did! If you have an extra $600 to spare it’s definitely worth it and it makes the transmission feel a lot quicker and more responsive and smooth, but I wouldn’t say to make that your first priority

@@Broke-Media Do you think a res delete or downpipe would sound better? I have the stock non-upgraded exhaust unfortunately. Res delete makes more sense imo with the stage 1. If I go downpipe it would be stupid to not got stage 2. Looking for small gains though nothing too crazy.

@@karl5428 if you’re going stage 1 then definitely just a res delete, if you go stage 2 then just a downpipe assuming you don’t want to be super loud

Yeah idk why they made them so heavy, but the 23’s look so good, enjoy it bro!

I highly doubt you’ll notice the weight or notice that much. If you are going to tune it the weight is even more so not relevant.

@@Austin-he5yy dude that’s so sick! I love the G29 Z4. Such a good looking car and they’re pretty rare, especially modified ones

🫡

Hahah oh I bet bro, and the 540i has the most features too🔥 congrats on the new whip tho!! enjoy it man

Stage 2+ pump gas is around 420whp and then on E40 it’s around 460-470whp

Bro I want one so bad but I’m stuck in limbo on what direction I’m going with the car🤔

@@Broke-MediaI would personally, was gonna get kw v2s, but I feel like money is better spent on a lsd, def will transform the car

@@cha7269 yeah man KW’s would be nice but I would definitely rather go with an lsd. How much did it cost to install?

IND!

I’m running ExtremeContact Sports which are surprisingly good, and I’d probably just go for a Vargas GC to aim for ~550whp on pump and 600whp on E50 I think that would be perfect

Definitely

Just the standard Stage 3 tune

Just mhd! You’ll just have to manually measure and calculate the blend

I got 245’s on the rear but I recommend running 255’s if you can

If you don’t need the extra space get an M240i imo, they look more sporty, they’re lighter, handle a little better, and they hold their value better too

@@Broke-Media how’s the backseat room on the 240 heard it’s pretty lacklustre

@@ClashandFifa it’s actually not bad! I have a few friends around 6ft and all of them were surprised by the space, but I wouldn’t say they’d wanna ride in the back for more than an hour by any means😂

My friend has an M340i, 500bhp, I'm 463bhp, on a roll I'm leaving him, he has 4wd so quick off the mark but loses in the end due to weight. Plus if you're a decent driver with handling upgrades, the M240i handles better or as well as an X drive dependent on drivers ability!

In my personally opinion, I’d get the M240i which I think you’ll enjoy more as it’s something new and has more power capabilities. I came from a Mk7 GTI which I really enjoyed but fell in love with the B58 platform. If you do decide to get a Golf R I highly recommend the Mk8 since it has the new continental turbo rather than the IS38 which will be a better jump coming from a Mk7

@@Broke-Media That’s what I was thinking. The Golf R will more probably than not leave me wanting more. I also want some change and I don’t think I’ll be satisfied with the R, even the newer one.

@@RSXengineering yeah exactly my thought. GTI/R is a great platform but I think if you get in a B58 you won’t look back

No I haven’t actually but I know they sound really good on most cars they make exhausts for

Tuning will basically void all engine warranty but the rest of your car will still be covered. If you’re not ready to tune the car yet and want to do other things like exhaust, suspension, intake, etc then the only warranty it will affect is that part directly, but if you change back to the stock part then they’d never even know and it would still be covered

I wouldn’t be able to give you an exact number off the top of my head but around $6k including wheels and exhaust which were each around $2k

@@Broke-Media gotcha

Yeah they got a 91 tune and 93 tune

Yes I am

It all depends tbh, I like them if they flow well with the build but some stick out too much and don’t really flow with the body lines

@@Broke-Media​​⁠If you have time to film this week can you put a camera on the back and get clips of the M style shift brap

@@hunter5695 I don’t have a mount for that or I would😭 and so it would be hard to tell the difference without that but I’ll have to get some type of setup to do that stuff for sure

@@Broke-Media you could have a camera outside and just do a 1st to 2nd pull with the setting on

@@Broke-Media Also, look up Jackie Ding's M2 and the wing on that, that is what I'm talking about on the big spoiler.

2017!

Yeah stock gapped plugs!

@@Broke-Media Bet thanks bro, congrats on the g80! Next car for me for sure

@@humzatariq1140 no problem man, and appreciate it 🙏🏼

2017 and up!

2017!

Yessir, I’ll add it to the description rn

Sorry to just copy and paste my comment, this for me has been an incredibly rewarding modification upgrade. Great upload. I'm in the UK and have a 2017 M240i. I've been busy over the year I've had it making it that little bit more. Top mount front strut brace, BAF k-brace behind rear seats, MST induction, turbo and exhaust manifold blankets, 200 cell high flow downpipe, Bosch B58TU HPFP, H&R 25mm drop lowering springs all round plus spacers, 12mm front 15mm rear. Flashed the gearbox with the XHP stage 3 software and last but not least a stage 2 ECU tune done by a UK company called Litchfield. Running 463bhp and 459ft-lbs. It's not an M2 but it'll leave one on the streets, it's an incredibly quick car, an M2 is the one you want, but the M240i delivers enough and more if you're not tracking it anything more than weekends! Still delivers then in abundance if I'm honest! I've still not reached the level I want, I have pollybush inserts for my open diff and subframe, plus an upgraded underfloor rear brace that I still need to fit! An insane piece of perfectly priced driving machinery! 😁 Myself as you and many others have done, we have bought an absolute weapon of a car with great off the forecourt with the ability and potential to go wild if you want to., the car dictates how quick and planted you are with each modification, an absolute peach of a learning curve and a clear indicator of how good the chassis is, yet they deconstruct its ability at source. Go wild folks, you won't be disappointed!

I forgot to mention the brakes, EBC disc upgrade and yellow stuff pads.
