DO NOT get a downpipe if you don’t plan on tuning the ECU. The wear and tear of turbo and engine will increase drastically yes you will get the crazy pops and bangs but it’s not worth risking your cars engine. If you want a downpipe ECU tuning is a MUST!
@@B58joaquin when you install a downpipe it changes exhaust pressure and other variables so a good tune is needed to make your car run good, and also to actually get good horsepower from the downpipe you need a tune!
I got a catless downpipe without a tune. Yes, Sounds wicked. But it doesn't increase the wear and tear of the turbo and engine DRASTICALLY. You can absolutely delay the tune a lot of time, but it is recommended to end up getting a good tune, because nothing is meant to be changed and the tune fixes that problem. Also, NEVER RUN A LOT OF POPS AND BANGS and if you are always driving for the burbles, you are frying your turbo. A custom tune for the downpipe allows you to draw all the horsepower you can and to fix any issues to make your car run good. Pops and bangs can be cool but they are what damage the turbo. The point of the tune is, however, to have a custom one when you've actually done a lot of changes you want to the car. IF your focus is only a downpipe and a tune, sure. But if your focus isn't just a downpipe, you can obviously put the downpipe, ignore the tune until you are done with the other mods, and then get everything set up. I repeat, CUSTOM TUNE IS THE WAY TO GO
@@B58joaquin the boost pressure target is never achieved with only a downpipe check it on a dyno the actual boost pressure spikes like crazy that happens because the downpipe allows higher flow of exhaust gases which sends irregular reading to the ecu. The Ecu shuts down the boost spike creating upto of 5 psi pressure which destroys the turbo Check it on a dyno.
@@tonkata1234 That’s kinda true, what you said was basically getting a custom tune over a normal tune, you can delay it as long as you don’t throw the car around but if you’re getting just a downpipe for the sound enhancement it will increase the wear and tear of turbo if the vehicle is thrown around and that’s what I said don’t get a DP if you aren’t planning on getting a tune.
really great car and great video, it's my dream car now the mods shown are insanely good, the perfect way to differ normal peoples from the original car entusiasts
I have a 23 m340i but yeah I don’t think I’m gonna bother. M3 CS in 2-3 years is the plan . Maybe I’ll do an intake and m performance exhaust for the sound but that’s it
The video was posted from Malaysia. This car costs around 83k USD. GTS pork costs well over 140k USD. M3 CS was never launched in Malaysia, but there a handful imported and its even more expensive due to the exclusivity. Add in higher used car interest rates, theres your answer. At least for this context
Just a little too busy/ricey looking imo. I'd drop the wing, keep the ducktail only. Canards also look out of place, as it's not a race car (maybe my taste is maturing). Love the color and rest of the body kit though! Gorgeous wheels too. Intake is definitely a must, even if it robs you of a pound or 2 of torque. The sound is well worth it. Here's my little recommendation for people on the budget for some quick, cheap, and easy gains: BMS Intake + charge pipe (under $500 total), Active Autowerke downpipe (high flow catted one that won't throw any CELs is $1500, or $400 for a no-cat one if you want a couple more HP, volume, smell, and CEL problems), and a simple piggyback like JB4 ($600), though of course it doesn't come close to a proper flash tune.
do u think its good for the engine and turbos running downpipes with the jb4 and not a real tune? might be going this route but dont want to damage anything
So in one part you mentioned the warranty will not be effected, then towards the end you note it possibly will but worth it. Perhaps some sort of rehab is in order for you. Good luck with getting off the gear.
@@ryankd27 As an owner of one of these I shared this video with the service manager at my local BMW dealership. Let’s just say he and then his team were laughing at the very thought of someone doing this, having a problem and bringing it in under warranty for repairs if something went wrong.
I'm not watching through the video but I scrolled through the chapter titles. Things in his video that will not impact warranty: Wheels, suspension, body kit, interior, and replacement muffler. Obviously the non-OEM parts aren't covered but adding them to his car will not cause an issue getting warranty repairs on any remaining OEM parts. The downpipe and if he gets a tune could cause other parts to be voided such as the engine, transmission, cooling system, more? Again, I don't know exactly what he said but I can tell you some things he did would have no carryover effect on any remaining OEM parts. Others would. That might be the source of the mixed message.
1. If you bought the car on a PCP, you can't mod it. 2. Pretty sure messing with the ECU will invalidate your warranty. 3. I do have this car and I'd say the whole point of the car is it's subtly understated looks. 4. Just get the damn M3 if you want a different look and more horses. 5. That spoiler is ghastly. 6. Agree about the steering wheel. 7. Stock alloys are great. 8. What was the bill for all these mods? That said, each to their own!
I wanna hold AJ cause he looks so soft 🤗 For real though great modifications on that car. Would love it if you had some 1/4mile and 0-60 times to share.
Might as well just buy a M3C at this point. Never gonna get your money back on the mods and the M3C is more performance off the lot. Sure, you add the MPerformance bits to the M but you'd need to buy less of them.
@@AJDrives after fees, taxes, it’s not that much cheaper. I see the fun in the process of modding the car but $30K towards a M3 or M4 makes more sense to me.
Yeah, “a great investment for the long term”? No. As some as you modify the engine then good luck with BMW and the now defunct warranty. Not a single manufacturer will support any warranty claims when you go anywhere near the mods you have done. I think a reality check is in order for you. A simpler engine mod to improve performance and fuel economy doesn’t require an ECU flash as a piggy back system will work.
"After you're done with the lips, get a rim job" lol. This boy wild.
Def does not have the same meaning as in the U.S.!!! lmao.
YESSS! I've been waiting for the next upload.
Haha, been a while 😁 more on the way!
Beautiful car but that large wing bro Please remove i pay you money 😂!! I have 540i g30 stg2 its a Dream But now my goal is m340i pre lci
Why pre LCI?

Is everyone gonna let him slide with saying “getting a nice rim job” 1:30

I caught that and came here 😭😭😭

I was just about to timestamp it and type "pause" 😂

Thanks mate! Exactly! Can't fit in with the crowd 😅
tint and exhaust are the first things i’m doing
Great Review !!
earned my sub
Everything look amazing but am not sure about the wing
same
Where u got the diffuser?
Horse power is actually 382 stock!
Welcome back boss!!
Thanks boss 💪🏼
I never understood modding a car to the tune of $30k. For that money you can just get a M3 CS? Or a Porsche Cayman GTS. To each their own.

Is the car tuned?
Nope!
All that and no tune? That's the best mod
Beautiful Car brother !!
I really love these rims. What's the ET on the front and the rear?
How did you attach those rear pieces(canards) in the back. I had some attached with some 3m tape but they fell off
May I know where did the owner went to buy and install the carbon fiber trim for the interior? And the steering wheel as well. Thanks.
It’s a carbon pack you can add, just like the m sport seats you can get that’s free/stock on m3

Dude your car is sick!!!! I want one..

many of these items will for sure void at least certain aspects of the warranty

@ Yes, the earth isn’t flat…. Voiding the warranty coverage on the engine and transmission are two of the most expensive things! OMG.
Where did you order the rear side diffusers? Can’t find them affordably
I love the Future Design front lip! Any chance they make it in gloss black instead of carbon?
where did you get the wing from?
Great video but it’s M340i not M240i that you said in the start of the video. 😅
Can you do a video of what mods don't void warranty bro for 2023
oh he uploaded omg
Omg its @letzuploadit 😱
Is that true? That amount of mods and warranty not void?
Where did u get the bodykit?
The commentary is wild… “open legs?” It’s a car!
What is the spec for the wheel setup
love the passion lol
Aftermarket downpipe without tune = check engine lights
Love the color. Wish bmw offered it (or any non-metallic paint ffs)
Is that an AP?
Where you get your back neck pillow???
Looks sick EXCEPT for that paint color😢😢😢 Nice Rim Job!!! Why is the HP so much lower than the US market?
Okay fine you sold me, I'll go get one next month... or Feb.
Awesome man! It's a great choice 💪🏼
Which Carbon diffuser is video ?
$30k and no femto, top mount, manifold, PI is crazy work
Are you in Malaysia?

What’s the total power out put with engine intake and down pipe installed, from stock 382 HP ??
Easy 430 without tune
Sir where is the rear diffuser from
You should given the links of bodykit parts
Does this downpipe and exhaust void motorplan and warranty?
Absolutely does. Unless you have a decent relationship with your dealer. Or switch out to stock before any dealer visits.
I recently purchased brand new but was told downpipes can make the engine light turn on. Is that true? Please let me know thanks.
Yes it will, you have to get a tune to code out the light. Also your warranty will be voided with Dow pipes.
You can clear with jb4 is it healthy for the engine to run down pipes with jb4?@@namansinghh
I wouldn’t get the alcantera wheel
Hey bro please tell me how you put purple on the interior lights it’s like bmw patched mine
It's within the settings if I'm not mistaken
Beautiful car but I’d prefer it in black white or red ext
Nice rims job huh
Dey pundek so good
do top 30 mod list for audi a4
Is it yours? If it is. Who are you? Where are you located?
is that Gooseneck wing drilled into the trunk? Or using adhesive glue?
nvm the car i love this guy😹
Haha, love you too 🤣👌🏼
This car looks so good, I'm gonna get a 2023 BMW 330i m sport and make it look like this.
is that a chip on the front windscreen?😢
Yeap 🥲
322 hp and 450 nm?? Who’s been smoking what ?😂
hahahahahahahah 🤣
Great to see Malaysian content bro. Awesome stuff! I'm looking at getting one very soon. Any suggestions? Do I buy brand new or used? Stuff like that
Thanks man!
I'd say a slightly used one is a good option!
The cars are quite reliable and still under warranty so I wouldn't worry about much.
You forgot about the seat mod 😀
firee
Warranty void or not boss?
i want to know too. i want to know what voids the warranty
I wanna hold AJ cause he looks so soft 🤗
For real though great modifications on that car. Would love it if you had some 1/4mile and 0-60 times to share.
Wth 🤣 Will try to see if I could arrange that!
Sorry but I'm not a fan of the aero kit. Its a BMW M340, not a honda civic!
This car looks better than an M3.
How many times can you say Carbon fibre😂😂❤
Plz remove the double wing it’s a eye sore
too many "lips" gaudy, especially the double stack on rear? What ?!
Might as well just buy a M3C at this point. Never gonna get your money back on the mods and the M3C is more performance off the lot. Sure, you add the MPerformance bits to the M but you'd need to buy less of them.
Everything carbon fibre is your hair carbon fibre as well because it doesn't move when you do a pull 😂😂
All of those power train mods absolutely 1000% will void the warranty. Only reason I haven't modded mine.
Why not use the $30k spent on mods and buy a M3 or M4?
1) M3 or M4 is way more expensive then extra $30k, over here at least
2) Modding and personalizing your car is part of the fun of owning these cars.
@@AJDrives after fees, taxes, it’s not that much cheaper. I see the fun in the process of modding the car but $30K towards a M3 or M4 makes more sense to me.
So you spent 30k on top of the car to still have less horsepower than m3 comp 😂😂 sounds like a amazing investment
No way there’s 30k into this car
Carbon fiber*infinite

dude spent m3 money on a m340i 😂😂
Instead just buy a jaguar F-type R 😂
both trunk spoilers are so ugly
Another xdrive so it not BMW anymore it a Audi 👍
Just get proper seats 😂
CAHRBON FIHBER
literally NOTHING besides the bodykit was a 2024 exclusive, what a braindead title
probably meant the LCI not the mods
The big ass android tablet in the front is the reason I wouldnt buy it eventhough its my favorite car
That’s why you buy a 2022 model
if youre gonna spend that much on an m340i, just buy an M3....

carbon fiber
This looks ricey Af. You came from a Honda didn't you?

nice;n informative,,
that wing is so gay and ruins the car cmon ur have terrible taste bro no offense
Spend $30k in mods but the windshield looks cracked 🫤
