Honestly, been watching Mat for a little while his attitude towards everything just being positive even when things go bad has helped me get through a lot! Mate your an absolute legend 🔥👍😄
@@jamesdanielsfanpage7610 oh thats a shame. I've heard that theey are great strip cars with x drive and 600hp kit. Talked to one guy here he has it one only for street racing and he won his class in sthlm open. And won against a lot of American muscle cars with around 900hp and with big drag tyres.
Epic M140i Mat, the colour stands out, it sound aggressive as hell and has the looks to go with the aggressiveness. I’m not usually a fan of BMW’s but this build has changed my mind. Well done on another cracking build keep up the hard work mate 🤙🏼.
*The turbo and the tune have turned this into something else* what an incredible job you've done up to this point on the look and performance of this beauty😍
I used to watch a lot of car RU-vidrs but gotta say Matt is by far the best,always a smile always happy “obviously he will have his off days as we all do” but most importantly he buys a broke car and builds it back up with money he makes from RU-vid,the rest just get a already made car from there money and that makes it a little boring,you actually learn shit of this channel,RESPECT MATT wish you everything and more for you family bro
As much as that BM looks amazing, that RS5 the way it sits and the way it pops with the 2 tones in colour between body and wheels it just looks so good!
Pretty sure I have watched every single video you have made. Your enthusiasm for what you do really shows, I get excited whenever a new video appears and you come across as such a decent guy. Even love the music at the end of each video. Keep doing what you are doing Matt. You deserve all the success you get. I especially loved the s5 series as I have one myself (with a few issues that no one can seem to identify 😢) Keep it up chap.
NGL, I'm not a BM fan generally, but that M140i is stunning. From the colour, to the wheels to the new steering wheel. Oh, and the fact it has over 530bhp! Perfect. 👌
@@MatArmstrongbmx mate u have done great with the car content , by far the best car guy on RU-vid and and looks like you're not even trying that's what make you so good, nothing fake just passion 👍
Hey Mat, If You Ever Start a Build on a Wrecked Mercedes AMG CLS 53. It Would be a Awesome Build. I Really Really Appreciate it. Because it's the AMG engine never hand build and many would describe it as the car that didn't Deserve the AMG badge. Although it power train is Really Really Smooth.
Awesome video! Mat or any expert reading this - does it affect negatively the suspension or bearings fitting wheel spacers? Considering adding them to my car.
If you're buying spacers that bolt to the hubs with another set of holes for the wheels to bolt into then make sure they're good quality with 10.9 bolts and use locktite to bolt the spacers to the wheel hub. I've had a set on my car and they kept rattling loose to the point where the wheel nearly came off.
Matt, get a set of slicks on the rear of that M140i and just watch how fast it goes with a stupid amount of grip. Would be interesting to see the comparison with road tyres and slicks on 0-60/100-200 times.
This is not a good advert for that tuner if hes produced 420bhp from a stage 2 custom tune. Its about 30/40bhp down on most. Even an OTS map produces 420bhp on stage 1
These are all figures produced on different dynos. The MAHA dyno is used by manufacturers and is one of the best. Also anyone can chase high bhp figures but the car can drive like shit, Mallory tune the cars so they actually drive well.
You should connect with TR Hamza, his m1 series is a monster, it would be a good comparison of 2 of the same cars. Well done on the bhp increase, im bored of my 310bhp octavia estate haha
Mat shout out from Australia brother love your work can't stop watching your videos just recently came across them biggest fan I am a big BMW enthusiast and I have a 120i I'm keeping it now to start off. Keep that fire coming God bless.
you have to warm up the tires first a drag race with a rear wheel drive car like the bmw makes a big difference and the spacers on the tires don't really help either
Honestly....I watched this guy do his bmx thing on clifton skate park...been a genuine fan ever since. Just goes to show put the hard work in...you can achieve anything. Keep it up matt! Would love to win one of yours cars one day!
Great content as usual 👍 You mentioned doing a 100 to 200 kph run - can we stick to MPH please 😂we are in the UK .Your enthusiasm for your channel is brilliant - you deserve your success .
Been waiting for this episode !!! Mine is starting to feel a bit tame with 455bhp/634nm, and I'm looking at cooling upgrades and a Dorch stage 2 HPFP, so I'm 'future-proofed' when I can afford a Vargas GC+ turbo :-)) 533bhp is an awesome result, nice job on the tune chaps !!
If you go to this *undisclosed location* again I'd love to hear about it, I live less than a minute from it! Few cars local to that could test out the 140i! 💥💥
Ello Mat, first of all I'm huge admirer of yours and all that you stand for, appreciate your vids and your story! Can you tell me what's the name of the color and brand of that beautiful blue wrap on your BMW, and if I'm not mistaken You used same one on your Audi S5 some time ago? Thanks onward man, keep up the good work, You are amazing! quick edit: that Audi RS5 is just definition of drip, that car is my life goal when it comes to material things, its just beautiful!
Another great watch...the tightness of the track I feel slightly put all of you off from flooring it completely. Great for single car runs but not two...Is there any General Aviation airfields near you that maybe you can strike a deal with to do some runs? But still it was great seeing your hard work pay off...and on to the next project
Only 533bhp from stage 3 140i, they normally push around 600-700bhp, I think you need some more supporting mods e.g intake and when the dyno run is done, should run some cold air fans blowing into the engine will defo increase your power
The bottleneck is fuelling, you will only see over 550 with port injection, no intake mods create more power. Don't give advice on stuff you know nothing about...
@nedas The power is virtually unusable at 533 in a rear wheel drive what's the point of doing more. As for your normally doing 600-700 stop talking shite...
To get THE BEST launch on one of these you need sport+, gearbox in manual, second gear selected, brake boost up to 3k then dump the brake and mash the throttle.
Absolutely love your antics but I have a question that has been bothering me for a while how do you insure your projects? do you have a very empathetic insurer or do you pay an arm and a leg???
That RS5 needs a JHM tune and some weight reduction. 500 horsepower and shaving 200 pounds is quite reasonable and will make a considerable difference.
Where did you get that steering wheel from because I was going to be get one for my BMW M140i I might do all off the Modifcashons that you have done too your BMW M140i but with out that rap theo and the struck bars that you rap I am going to be doing my on design to my car
Hi Mat just started watch your RU-vid channel, you are so good at what you take on and it’s ace the way you explain everything, when you pull up outside your shop their is a VW Mk2 golf gti… is that yours? Keep up the great work mate Ian 👍🏼
