So happy I have one of these. The B58 is going to be one of the last true engines that can handle power and be so reliable at the same time. What an engine. Also dying to see the power output at the end of when everything is complete.
The Motech springs that came off are the "Stance Plus" springs 30mm front and 25mm rear. Motech offer the normal "Stance" which are Eibach springs which are 25mm front and 20mm rear. But the Stance Plus are branded as Motech's own spring. They disclose that they're made in the Netherlands (most likely Apex springs.) I'm running that stance plus at the moment. (That intake is insane! Thanks man)
@@Liono_Monkey I wouldn’t say they are harsher , slightly stiffer yes , but they handle the bumps so much more better , I have only done 1000 miles with them and they seem to be getting better with every drive 👍
@@Addselwyn mm good! Is that in comparison to std adaptive with standard M140i springs? Std rear springs are very high spring rate. My M235i doesn't suffer with that with Std M Sport springs. But currently running B4 adaptive with M Performance springs. Ride is much harsher than M P springs with OEM adaptive.
@@Liono_Monkey I’m comparing it to the car fitted with the oem adaptive dampers and eibach pro kit , i changed the oem springs straight away due to the rear springs being 587 LB / inch . I think the M Performance springs have a high spring rate as well , and was advised not to use them ,due to this
You really need to change the dampers buddy, a lot of people change just the springs but the handling and body control is massively improved with a good set of b8 dampers.
I actually own a M140i with a stage 1 tune. And watching your face as you drive it SMILING 😃. (You don't drive the RS3 like that)That's how drive to work every day. BTW keep the content coming. Love it.
@@ARDEN440i you’ll hear the difference when the cars under load, ie when driving. Revving won’t do it justice but it makes a huge difference when the turbo spools up
Best thing i done to my m140i was a midpipe delete to my mpe exhaust from bcs powervalve up my neck of the woods totally recommend it the bmw technicians at williams say thats how the car was meant to sound from factory

I’m loving this build. I have a m135i LCI Auto and jusy placed an order for Eibach Pro’s. Also, bmw have quoted me 3k for the m performance lsd and now I don’t know whether I want to change to Wavtrac. Keep up the good work bro
@@jakemaloney3441 never heard of these but interest to look these up. How does it ride now compared to stock and do you still get the floaty feeling when pushing on? Thanks
@@JO3KAH they are essentially kw v1 coilovers just with a different coating , you’ll find lots of info online about them , its solid and planted most of the time but i still think it needs poly bushing to finish it off
You can remove the grills like that!!!!😮 without having to un screw the top side wow! Mate get 4 ps4’s all round absolutely transformed my car can use the power 90% of the time im stage 1
The Motech stance+ springs are NOT eibach. Very cleverly marketed by motech they don’t mention much about the actual maker of the springs. Had a set on my car they weren’t great, replaced with their Motech stance springs which are made by eibach and fitted b8 dampers and it’s great now. I think the stock dampers are not up to the job even on a stock car.
They are cheaper because they aren’t AWD like the Golf R. The Golf R is more or less VW’s flagship car, where the 40i is only an M-lite. Also the rear wheel drive aspect scares some people away over the AWD alternatives. 140i/240i B58 engine is unreal so don’t worry about any issues there.
@@hermano1515 my opinion is if your buying a BMW it’s because you want that RWD experience. Xdrive just doesn’t excite me. If you like xdrive you should maybe look at the new line up of 1 series. The 128ti is meant to be a solid car.
Hamza or 140i guys, how do you find they handle? Found one I want to buy but keep hearing such mixed reviews that they're a bit boaty and 240i is better
Stage 2 on Wednesday, then Stage 2+ soon after, should tide us nicely until the Pure800 turbo arrives, Stage 3 😁
Looking forward to it
Try get some proper dragy times if you can so you can do a side by side comparison. That’d be sick
Deffo need a race against the rs3 soon then
Less go
Sound of the rs3 is much nicer. Maybe with the downpipe i chance my mind 😊 still beautifull car 🤤
Probably one of the only youtubers that does what he says he’ll do 😂
The more you post this car, the more I want one. Car's gonna be a beast soon
Get one. with a diff and a stage 1 tune you'll never need another car

Still more to come too! Going to cover every element/stage of the car

The best thing is that its not just another m135/140i build and you have nice taste in parts

Man like Hamza showing us the mods in action straight away no 2 part video like a lot of others😴 top video as always!! loving this build thread🙌🏻
This videos sold me the eventuri intake. How much is the retail price from Evolve out of curiosity?
I think they’re like £1500 to £2000
I honestly couldn't hear much of a difference I'll be completely honest. Perhaps because I'm listening through speakers

This car is very good. Drove one time and i liked it a lot. 👍👍👍
Thanks for another great video, been following your car's progress with much interest.
Amazing car & getting better by the episode, but I have to ask TR... what currently gives you more smiles per mile between M140i and the ED30??
960 pounds just for springs ?! 😳
For 200-300 pounds less you get a proper coilover like ST-X
Paid £640 for st x coilovers on my 1 series and couldn’t be happier with them
@@jakemaloney3441 exactly : 960 pounds just for springs is a rip off

Saw you about today clocked the plate aha. Big up Brum 👊
These sit nicer once on springs and spacers 👌🏾
What's wild is there will probably be an electric motor on1 series in the future that will be the same power as this but stock and silent lol.
when you get to one million subs will you remember me?
Same
It’ll be a while (if ever) but will do 😂

Thanks mate! Plenty to come 👌🏼
yassss keep this epic content up loving the m140. these vids going to make me buy one at this rate. haha
Please can you show how the adjustability works?
Have you had any coolant issues, Ive heard this is quite common on these. Looking to get an m140i for the summer
Absolute beast bro
Did he just unclipped the grills with his fingers 😲

when are we going to see some carbon fiber to the exterior ?
Thank you, and not really a priority right now, focusing on the driving characteristics 👍🏼

@@TRHamza no problem cant wait to see more content on the m140i
whats good mods to do before stage 1 so not too much engine stress? air intake, fresh oil etc
Why not change the anti roll bars and add some rear camber ;)
“Just get an eventuri intake for your b58”...
I’ll just go win the lotto whilst I’m at it ;) £££
the only problem i have with these are the people who drive them 😂
Keep it up bro jus keep doin u😂😂 nice funny good stuff
Marshalllah mad luv bro
The mounting plate is still on the dash 🤣
It’s a dragy sticky pad that’s magnetic
u still got the rs3? if u do when th m140i is done do a race between them
Yeah still got it and will do 👍🏼
You really had to twist his arm to get that to happen 🤣 That will be a good video .
Do you prefer the rs3 or m140i? Could you do a video doing a direct comparison between the 2?
Very different cars but yeah will do a back to back comparison when the M140i is stage 2.
@@TRHamza If we're scoring them on your smiles when driving then it seems the M140i is the winner ;-)
Go on lad
Would be cool if you could suggest cheaper alternatives to the things you install as we dont all have that youtube money ;)
Sexy looking intake that sounds much better!
Does you m140i have the underbody brace ?
Booooom
That new m4 looks 🤮🤪even worse in they grey colour! Cool 140i though! Am tempted to get one after I’ve stopped playing with the 335o
so MSS springs over eibach?
Im sure I've missed something but where is the wrx content at????
Bad boy car
What’a the spring rate of these MSS springs ?
I think you are smitten :)
Nice but why do people pay sooo much for eventuri is above my head . They look good tho .
Proper pre preg carbon like that is unfortunately expensive
Is the car on run flats ?
No
Have you put spacers on yet?
It already has motech spacers
When are all these mods ever gonna stop
Springs...why?! the most essential part of the car and you go with a cheap set of springs.
Personally think the intake isn’t that great and over rated does not even makes a big difference get much better intakes just looks good in carbon...
World's most over priced intake 😂😂.
Nice vid tho👍
Mss is so expensive 😯
is it camera trickery or does that guy have a squidward shaped head lol
