bro, genuinely i’m 20, i do all the work on my car myself never go to a garage anymore,, apart from the odd question for the mechanic (who surprisingly is more than happy to help) , and i have to say i got lucky because i was basically given an audi a4 1.9tdi to work on, and long story short i either changed the cambelt and sorted a problem with the turbo or it was gonna get scrapped. it was the first car i’d ever worked on. I did already have a good understanding of engines and mechanics already but not excessive as i was only 17 at the time. My point is that i got lucky that i managed to try it the first time on a car that didn’t matter if it went wrong but i did the whole lot from youtube vids and a bit of research, it gave it a new lease of life and worked perfectly after. anyway i’m really not trying to brag, just saying if you can bring yourself to just give it a go you’ll probably surprise yourself how much you can do. and the worse case scenario is that you pay a mobile mechanic £50 to come and check over a job that would have cost you £300 to get done in a garage. Good luck
Just want to say always love watching your vids Matt and the fact you ain’t scared to get in there, I’ve been doing treatment all this year and sometimes have to sit having chemo for like 5hrs at a time ! It’s you and evil gt and others that I find myself bing watching to pass the time and it’s been a great help mate , keep doing what your doing 👍🏻
Not that it matters now however for future reference it’s best to ‘prime’ the turbo with oil before fitting as it’s never good to start the engine up and run the turbo dry till the oil gets pumped round. Mint video as always tho Matt, this build has been mint👌🏻
Been working on cars as a mechanic for 10+ years and i never heard about turbo oil primeing..no hate. On initaial startup the turbo barley spins or makes any boost there isnt any posible way somthing could break beacuse of runing "dry"
Well done Matt, very determined! It's a ball ache sometimes when you have to go back over something you have already done, this car is fighting you all the way
huge tunes , huge power , huge youtuber in the making = matarmstrong... as always a mat quality video done is the best possible taste & above all puts in the hard work/dedication with help from Kevin & Hannah .... have a great cover free xmas & in the new year I'm sure Mat will up the quality and amazing builds ... the sky is the limit so we hope to be on the wild interesting ride & maybe calm down a tad at 5m subscribers lol .. onwards and up UP for Mat's channel .. happy Christmas to u `& family ..
Loving the 80s-esque soundwaves in the tracklist! Big credit on the solid brand of wheelbarrow you drag your big manscaped nadgers around with, getting stuck in to all that stuff!
Best TH-camr of 2021 Matt Armstrong out here buying wreckers an building monsters while living a life big respect ✊ keep goin the best content out there bye far 💯👌🏽
You are such a natural at this mat you are living so many peoples dream mate and really do deserve it your a grafter. I've got to stop watching the bmw videos otherwise I'm gonna have to buy one 😆
I really enjoy all of your videos - well made and very entertainment! I just have a wish for your future projects, since most or if not all of your current projects are kinda expensive cars.. So perhaps something in style with the BMW 1 series? A much more relatable car, since it's a car most can afford, so we can use the knowledge that we get from you videos' on out own car.. ;-)
Love this channel your stuff has been keeping me sane recently got diagnosed with ocd and anxiety and have been off trying to get my head sorted got your Christmas box and recently bought your m sport hoodie if you could update videos twice a week would be amazing love from ni❤
I’ve always thought of a hybrid turbo is that made of various bits from other turbos having and the electric pack bolted to it controls the VNT (variable vanes in the exhaust side)
"As most of you all will know, I'm not a Mechanic" 🥴 Right now, about 4 of my radiators aren't working and it's boomin' freezing. It's like me removing the full central heating system and saying "As most of you will know, I'm not a Plumber"
Anybody doing the High pressure fuel pump don’t cut your wires either buy the extension harness, or flip the plug cutting and splicing the wires is hack af
I did try to reposition the sensor and the casing wouldn’t allow it. After speaking to people who fitted the same fuel pump they all mentioned that had to extend the wiring 🤷♀️
Matts out here doing full restorations and fitting turbos. All from teaching himself. Madness!

Sorry for the v long reply probably just chatting s£@t but it’s worth a try cos i didn’t realise how easy it was 🤪
Not hard really is it any car mechanic that thinks they have a hard job is a nob. It's like putting together a jigsaw puzzle and taking it apart.
Full restorations? You obviously don’t know what a restoration is because he doesen’t do full restorations he’s not Car S.O.S?🤔🤔
@@scottbeaman6355 ok then smart man what’s the valve clearances on a subaru imprezza? Or how do you time a TDV6 landrover engine?😉😉
This is just the perfect car.. Compact, fast, loud and eye-catching 💙💙
by far my favorite build, i always get hyped to watch the Beamer content!
I'm with you dude

made me cringe a little bit when he started it. seen a few turbos fail from not being primed

@@BABA-qf5lp no, nothing will break however just good practice.
@@BABA-qf5lp doubt you’re a mechanic then.
@@BABA-qf5lp Could i ask for your advice on something realating to my car ? please

Get well soon phill 👍🏻
Absolutely loving this build
I’m not sure anymore if I’m looking out for Matt’s videos for his car builds or his ads lad’s gold with his ads all the time
Best TH-camr of 2021 Matt Armstrong out here buying wreckers an building monsters while living a life big respect ✊ keep goin the best content out there bye far 💯👌🏽

You are such a natural at this mat you are living so many peoples dream mate and really do deserve it your a grafter. I've got to stop watching the bmw videos otherwise I'm gonna have to buy one 😆
Awesome vlog matt as Always, hey stay safe,looking forward to next vlog,tuning the 140i,
Matt I think Gold/Champagne refurb on the alloys would look great as they'd match the Blue/gold M2 CS colour way 👌🏻👌🏻
This build has ignited a love for bmw I didn’t know I had 😍
Love watching your videos mate this car looks sick can't wait to see next video mate best car youtuber u talk so much sense straight to the point
The TU HPFP can be rotated by taking it out then fit it to suit the wiring harness but hey ho. This car is just brilliant.
Definitely the nicest 1series I’ve ever seen IMO. That blue is 🔥
Car looks sick. Great work on the turbo upgrade, can’t wait to see what power this beast makes 😎
Been waiting whole week for the upload 🔥🔥
Love it Matt the 140i has an awesome motor keep up the good content 😊😊👍
Best looking 140i I've seen! Great work.
I really enjoy all of your videos - well made and very entertainment!

That noise is hilarious 😂the Lower grille too, didn’t see that on the other video🤦🏽♂️nightmare

These days only content that's amazing is Matt's channel 🔥
Yoooo I thought Mat forgot to put up the emergency brake and the car was rolling, cool intro.
Ayy been waiting for an m140i vid!!!!
Keep an eye on the pipercross filter
It will go all saggy / collapse in with the higher boost.
ITG is much better or a custom intake like eventuri
Or a nice new oem filter 👍
I hope your sponsors pay you more than other TH-camrs. By far the most entertaining advertising manscape get!
I’ve always thought of a hybrid turbo is that made of various bits from other turbos having and the electric pack bolted to it controls the VNT (variable vanes in the exhaust side)
Merry Christmas Matt and a safe new year to you and Hannah love your Videos
Might be my favourite car you’ve done up, freakin awesome dude!!!!
Damn boi those pops and crackles are aggressive!
❤ good job ... my dream car😊
Looks mega mate! Love the colour wrap!!!
What a transformation from what it was!!! Unreal! 👍
Phil's an arse! 🤣 Great work Matt. Eventually! Great looking car the M1, I absolutely love what you've done to it!
Huge Turbo Upgrade well done.
the 2 series front end is just sick
That manscape transition was on point
What an awesome and honest story Mat, can’t wait for the next instalment.
The ads you do in your vids proper crack me up 🤣 downstairs garden 😂😂
Actually the m2 Hatchback is my absolute dream car!!
This car is madness now! What a change
Love from The USA 🇺🇸
The car is coming out amazing bro do your Intakes as well will sound nice
So much power will also need a crank hub upgrade 👌🏾
Definitely my favourite youtuber🙏💪
Awesome content again man! Can't wait to see the results 🙌. Have a great Christmas and New Year Mat and Hannah!
Epic BMW build, awesome sound and looks👍
The 140i is gorgeous!!!
That Manscape promo though ... laugh my ass off!!! 🤣🤣🤣
Love this build! As a boggo 120d owner this is the car I wish I was driving 😂 Merry Christmas Mat!
That Beamer sounds gooooood.
Cracking video Matt , it’s gonna be amazing 🤩.. can’t wait to see what it’s pushing out , car looks stunning
Can't wait to see what power this pushes out
Prolly round 6hunna
Come on Matty, you’ve got to be hitting up Imran and his Evolve crew for the engine components! Best there is
Literally nobody has been waiting impatiently for this video more than me.
You are a ”sick”man Matt 😂😂 love it , keep it up
The wheels are unreal 🥶
You can actually rotate the connector on the TU pump, no harness cutting required
Hope Phil gets better soon , another good mission 😜
This is why I like these TH-camrs, they do crazy shit to their cars so we don't have to.
That's massive lad.
C'mon Phil it aint Christmas yet, pull yourself together man - Man got bimmer to tune !
Matt, have you made any wrapping tutorial videos... I'd love to be able to do a few tricky bits myself like tail lights!
Love the BMW look and power
Omg it's so big ........!!!!. The turbo that is. 👍👍🇬🇧
Just subscribed Mat & looking forward to what you can put in the ramp in 2022
Snoop Dogg and Kevin in the same vid. Thanks Matt ❤
this project is so sick ❤
That turbo is a beast.
Love the car content, throw in some bike content in a future video 👍
Mst air box sounds brilliant on the b58
Mat is engineering. 👍
The Nurburgring is calling. 😉
Hard work beats talent!

Like the up grades and should hang the scraped grill parts on the wall. Make some artwork for the shop
Nice one Mat. Love that colour. You’ll have to post a link to the manufacturer of that.... have a good Christmas fella.
In the face of adversity you always are positive never negative .
This actually blows my mind
Liked the bloopers at the end haha
Anybody doing the High pressure fuel pump don’t cut your wires either buy the extension harness, or flip the plug cutting and splicing the wires is hack af
Best looking M140i on the planet
No youtuber puts as much effort into their promos as Matt does
Awesome work Mate!! But with the TU pump you didn’t need to do any funky wiring, you can just re position the sensor 🤣
I did try to reposition the sensor and the casing wouldn’t allow it. After speaking to people who fitted the same fuel pump they all mentioned that had to extend the wiring 🤷♀️
@@MatArmstrongbmx how annoying!!! But the main thing is it’s on and it’s doing it’s job! Can’t wait to see how she does on the dyno mate
Massive power gains time 👀
When’s the new video dropping Matt? My Xmas isn’t complete without watching one of your videos
Thursday 6pm!
That dance Killed me lol 😂
Yes cmon matt my favourite time of the week!!!
Banging
We need more bloopers!
