1 short ram intake 2 tinted headlights 3 tinted tail lights 4 resonator delete (stock exhaust) full catback with no resonators is fine. Stock no res no muff it’s trumpet raspy infamous vq drone noise 5 long tube headers (power/price ratio not worth it)
I have my headlights tinted and yes, it does affect the view at night. If you run the highbeam, it’s like running the low beam and on your car I think that would look good with the color and the dark hood. The tinted headlights would look really good and you don’t have to go completely dark, they make a lighter colored tent also just saying lol
Hey Maha, great video and wise advices. Thank you for sharing! Your car looks amazing and with that carbon fiber look hood looks sick. I drive a 2021 Red Sport same color as yours. I’m in south Florida, what is the shop you trust down here? It still under warranty, so I stayed away from any mods but I’m considering to start with a moderate drop (around 1”) with lowering springs just to close a little bit the gap and to improve suspension handling with wheels. Very likely will increase the rear tires width from 265/35ZR19 to 285/35ZR19. Any recommendations?
Honestly had my friend that works for a dealer do it for me….hard to trust shops here in Florida…..I’m on tein s tech springs going on 4 years … no issues at all … drop eliminates all the wheel gap and is still comfortable/sporty at the same time….very planted in corners
Such a clean beautiful Q. Not overkill, just right. I would of gone all black wheels until i seen yours and i love it. I remember dealership offered me a way better deal if i took gold one .. i was like, nah, but there is guy whos has gold q60 with gold wheels and it's fire. But like red, basically could live with any color except the gold.
I appreciate that Fam and I actually switched up the wheels from these…..she’s sitting on satin gunmetal Ark Performance wheels now … gold Q’s look good if modded correctly 🔥🔥
IDK how I feel about the K&N drop ins. Of course the stock intake box setup already is a cold air and best unless you got a bigger turbo. In my experience, the holes in the kn filter are too big and lots of dirt gets through. My intake tube would have a layer of dust in it when i wipe it. I can only imagine how it'll cake up the valves and gum up the piston rings etc over time, so prob not the best mod for longevity. Plus the oil from the filters would always mess with my MAF causing issues/ reduced performance/ fuel economy. I'm running the OEM box n filters on my F80 M3 pushing about 600 crank just fine.
@@Mahamotives ehh it’s still a motor bro, you don’t want those valves and piston rings getting gummed up from all that dust. Watch project farm’s video on the filter testing. K&n did the worst and let the most dirt through by a high margin. Backs up my findings 😂
I've got a black Q60 I've removed all my badges but I'm wanting to black out all the chrome Did you do a delete kit have yours wrapped or something else
I see u have the Z wheels and ur Q is awd wat is ur wheel setup cause I put rear staggered wheels on and ruin awd. To be honest I didn't know to much bout the setup thxs
Just got a 2019 red sport. I’m looking for some tips I work at an almond plant it’s insanely dusty out there. Should I be worried that it will get into the turbos
When you get the headlights modes please post who is working on them. I’m in Florida/Orlando and you don’t know how hard it is to find proper individuals that do clean work. I shipped mines to PA and was good for a year. Gotta redo mines.
Will definitely be posting it up when I get them done …. Got a friend local to me who found a good one. Gonna wait to see how well his holds up before I get them done
Hey I want to get a q50 but honestly I want to go fast but reliability is a factor for me I know the vr30 they have issues with the some cracks in the wastegate if im not mistaken correct me if I’m wrong , also I’ve heard turbos supposedly go out around 100k so I’m looking at the 3.0t and the 3.0t RS but if I could make 400hp on the 3.7 I’d like that better but how much money would you say you need to invest in a 3.7 to beat a 3.0t sport or RS for that matter Thanks for the information in advance
Stock red sport we can beat with full bolt ons and e85 …. If the red sport is tuned you’ll have to drop forced induction, preferably single turbo and other supporting mods to run properly….on average you’ll be dropping close to 10k to keep up or beat modded red sports….at that point I’d rather invest into a GTR loll
Technically yes but remember your car is RWD biased…..it stays in RWD until it senses loss of traction …. Then the front wheels will kick in … so you can run both staggered or squared…squared will be easier to rotate tires and save some money
@@inyczgq price to HP ratio isn’t worth it for me….you’ll gain maybe 3-5 hp over test pipes but HFC are more expensive to buy and more expensive to install over test pipes…..it’s my daily so I just kept it simple with test pipes. All personal preference
Nothing but majority of intakes for our cars just suck in hot air defeating the purpose and you’ll actually lose power unless you can get a proper intake that runs to the front or bottom grill to pull the cold air properly
3inch long tube intakes will get you the most gains and I agree tinted headlights look stupid
1 short ram intake
2 tinted headlights
3 tinted tail lights
4 resonator delete (stock exhaust) full catback with no resonators is fine. Stock no res no muff it’s trumpet raspy infamous vq drone noise
5 long tube headers (power/price ratio not worth it)
Tinted lights on a black vehicle is sick

For the NA vq37, the drop in filters are just fine. If you have a vr30 that’s a different story 😂😂

Precut vinyl from eBay …. I’ll be doing an install video soon bc I need to redo one side
@@Mahamotives Thank you
Hey Maha I am looking for window trim for my 2015 q50 premium 2.0
eBay has the full precut kit , that’s what I have on mine
I see u have the Z wheels and ur Q is awd wat is ur wheel setup cause I put rear staggered wheels on and ruin awd. To be honest I didn't know to much bout the setup thxs
My Q is RWD but rn my Ark wheels are squared setup

Should be fine if you wash your car frequently
Would u say a plm axle back fine?? That doesn’t mess with the resonators right
Yup any axle back is fine…just basically a bolt on muffler delete

Bro I've been trying to get your style type of hood in carbon fiber for my 2018 3.0T Luxe RWD I'm also in FL where didbyou get one
Mine is Carbon creations…. VIS has a similar style one …. Lines on the VIS are a little more pronounced vs mine
Love the way your Q looks. Mind if I know where you got your tail light tint from?
Appreciate the love and I got it done at a locally shop in my city . Not sure what brand he used, but it’s a medium smoke tint
Cleanest Q I’ve seen 🔥🔥
Appreciate it bro 💪🏽💪🏽
Oh that boy in PSL, hope i see you around g
Say wassup if you do homie 🤙🏽
W video #q50Gang 🔥🤟🏼
Appreciate it Fam!
Ok so me being awd is it better to have a square setup for my awd q50s
Technically yes but remember your car is RWD biased…..it stays in RWD until it senses loss of traction …. Then the front wheels will kick in … so you can run both staggered or squared…squared will be easier to rotate tires and save some money
What was it tht you suggested for the frosted black? I want them dark but of course don’t want no accidents
Tail lights?
@@Mahamotives yeah
Hey man, about to get one of these, what hood do you got on it?
Carbon creations hood 🤙🏽
YO THATS PSL RIGHT OFF BAYSHORE I do burnouts over there all the time that’s the garage that caught fire last year
Yessirrr ✊🏽✊🏽
What height is ur coilovers
2” drop all around on Tein S tech lowering springs
Fire video
Thank you ✊🏽✊🏽
Do you need hoodpins for a carbon hood on a q50. I’m interested in getting one for mine
You can reuse the oem hood latch….just need to drill it out a lil bigger than it comes
@@Mahamotives thank you dude
Sounds good do a exhaust catback video or pov
Check out my previous videos I have a few up already but I’ll definitely be doing more 🤙🏽💪🏽
What about the HKS valve blow off
Heard it isn’t the best for the turbos later on
For tail light worth skyline tailight?
I personally don’t like them … but it’s personal preference
Get them tinted instead
does ur ecutek void your warranty ?
Yes …. But Depending on your relationship with the dealer, some dealers might still honor it if they’re mod friendly
Intakes are probably the worse mods to get
How much was your running and do you have the 3.0 or 3.7 ?
He has the 3.7
Yup 3.7
Where did you purchase your front lip from?
eBay
@@Mahamotives can I get link?

Yo man do you mind if you share your full exhaust setup I know you have the Ark Grip but what else do I need to replicate it?
It’s the full Ark exhaust paired with Berk resonated test pipes
What’s your part list
I have a mod list video on my channel check it out ✊🏽
Which down pipes do you have?
I’m non-turbo so I have berk resonated test pipes
@@Mahamotives I was told to go with Berk HFC for the 3.7 should I go with the test pipes instead?
@@inyczgq price to HP ratio isn’t worth it for me….you’ll gain maybe 3-5 hp over test pipes but HFC are more expensive to buy and more expensive to install over test pipes…..it’s my daily so I just kept it simple with test pipes. All personal preference
@@Mahamotives is the smell overwhelming with the pipes?
@@inyczgq personally doesn’t bother me….. If you want a better smell get gtr injectors and tune on e85 too to balance it out
What were the tire sizes on this wheel setup
Rear was 255/40 front were 245/40 I believe
What’s wrong with intakes
Nothing but majority of intakes for our cars just suck in hot air defeating the purpose and you’ll actually lose power unless you can get a proper intake that runs to the front or bottom grill to pull the cold air properly
Pretty good list bro
Appreciate it bro 💪🏽💪🏽
What part south Fl you in I’m in Miami
About 2 hours north of Miami, Treasure Coast 🤙🏽
Where you buy your hood from?
Carbon creations
