This video should be very short. Do not mod your M3/4. It never works out well 😆
My biggest mod will be a 911 upgrade :)
I heard those are pretty reliable....
@@TommyLGarage Me, too. However, they're a solid notch more expensive than a used M-car. Plus, probably won't have much of a factory warranty left.
@@TucsonDude Lot of people get the 911 with 7 year extended warranty (I did) ...
Always mod or be regular my friend
Nick, this guy reminds me of you....
Dude, your videos are amazing. I love this new type of video!
Thank you, I have to say I learned a lot from you my friend!
You guys are killing the game with your F Chassis content. Love watching both of yall’s videos.
he's pretty damn good at it, agree.
I really like this. Tastefully modified. No giant wings, spoilers and non-sense. Simple mods are the best. A nice rumble from the exhaust, a few carbon bits and pieces.....simple is King.
Agreed. And thank you!!
I freaking love your channel. The simplicity of this video saves me hours of forum research.
Thanks for the feedback Sean!
Me too
Great list; it very closely matches what I've got on my M4. The only additional thing I've got that I'd put in the "Must Have" category if you do track days is camber plates. Without them these cars tend to eat up the outer shoulders of the front tires pretty quickly. Depending on just how hard you drive and which tracks you frequent, a set of racing brake pads to swap in for those days is also great.
Another tip for the intake is to simply remove the carbon filters in the lid of US model airboxes. The additional power might be small but it's free and you get that nice extra turbo whoosh.
Great points.
Honestly I haven’t had much issues with tire wear at the track. Outer edge does get beat up but not as much
Thanks for the mention - glad you are satisfied with our lip !
I love it!! I mention you guys to everyone. I might get a new one from you to keep things fresh :)
Simple and to the point. I love content that doesn't screw around and gets to the meat and potatoes. Love it.
Thanks!
Exhaust
Eventuri intake
Kw 3 coilovers
Ecu tune
Charge cooler ✌️
Also a great list minus the intakes. I’d skip then
@@TommyLGarage i like both the looks and the extra power and sound but i agree with you that the factory intakes are pretty good too but i think that the car doesn't 'breath' that well with them. The intakes change the car's behaviour a lot. What do you think Tommy?
🙏🙏🙏🙏
Check the Mods on the M’s on my page
This is literally the best video out there for owners and people looking into them ! Thank youu!!😝
Thank you so much!
I don't own an M3 and not sure why I felt the need to come to this video, but I'm glad I did. I don't usually leave comments but I loved your vid and I've subbed.
Tom Heald thank you!! This means a lot
Down pipes, KW club sport coil overs, Bootmod stage 2, and Bridgestone RE71s makes m3/4 phenomenal!!!
True
You can get metal guards for the crank hub making that a total non issue. That and the charge pipes are the first things you should replace on the list and what you should’ve started your video with. I’d 100% do those mods even before driving the car lol.
Good point !
Brilliant weather check forshadowing. Keeping some form of catalytic converter is definitely a smart consideration. Thank you.
You bet!
The color is perfect on every M3 & M4
Sometimes it’s too loud for me
I try NOT to turn around an look back at my parked M-car...but I still do like you say @ 10:35.
Haha it’s hard to resist. These cars loom so good
That's one very nice BMW M3 and a great video about the mods to your car.
Thanks for the awesome comment and thanks for watching!!!
Gave it a thumbs up just for the Nik Murray intro! 😆
I love that guy!
Great video. Those outtakes are exactly how It is when I film some of mine lol🤙
Great video, good to see & hear the views of a proper enthusiast who drives and tracks their car. A lot on here just mod the hell out these cars for driving like a total tool on the street for likes.
Thanks. If I could I’d be at the track every weekend
Great video wish I had modded my m4 more 4 years ago I still have it and love it
What mods have you done ??
@@TommyLGarage Just lowered it and spacers tbh I’ve had it brand new since 2019 and never really touched it. Wish I had gotten those flaps like yours those rocks keep scratching my side. Hindsight wish I would have PPF’d also down here in Miami I’m getting water spots like crazy 😫
DUDE !! U R THE BEST. I have never taken the time to leave feedback but your info is totally useful ! THANKS.
You're a natural, Tommy. Great stuff!
Thank you!!
Liked the Nick Murayish opening! You forgot French bulldog! Part of owning BMW is the wide spectrum of customizing options and always good to hear from the owner what works and what to look out for.
Nick is awesome! We are actually organizing a meet in the coming months. Stay tuned !
@@TommyLGarage That sounds great! Looking forward to it!!
My mods (in that order)
1. New tires none RFT
2. M performance brakes
3. KW coil overs
4. Tuning
4. Some cosmetic.
Great video and a beautiful car.
That’s a good list!
Great video as always! What I really like about your vids is that they’re very informative but you also have a bit of humor thrown in as well!
Congrats on 10k subscribers too!! 👍🏼
Wohoooo thanks !!
Hell yeah! 10k!
Thanks for helping me make it happen!
2:29 activated Siri on the iPad I was watching lol
The hack is real!
Great video!!
Didn't know the orange reflectors was a mandatory thing.
Good categories, highlights all points
Nick murray inspired intro, I love this!!
I love his stuff
Just bought a 2017 BMW M4 and I totally feel what you said in the ending before the bloopers. I’m always looking back at it 😂
Me too!!
At what age did you buy it
Pablo Iglesias 27!
Damm I’m 17 and I wanna buy it any advice
Pablo Iglesias get college degree. Good job. :)
Your videos are always fantastic, Tommy, thanks a lot!
Thank you for sticking around !
Congrats Bro on your 10K subs. Cant wait for u to hit 50K & 100K and more....
Very informative video.
Thanks for the support! It’s people like you who give me the motivation. Thank you!!!
I wouldn’t look past this M3, it’s PERFECT!
Thank you!!!
Driver upgrade is my favorite mod. I can’t wait for M school and track days.
M school is overpriced. HPDE is the way to go.
I agree with you, but what i like is not having to stress about driving my own car until I’m more experienced. I ended up getting 20% off at the ultimate driving event, but I’m actually thinking about returning it and doing an M club day through the BMW club, which is cheaper yet. Love your channel Tommy!
Hi Tommy, great video. I've had my f80 5 months now and it's intoxicating, I cannot get enough of it. Watched most of your videos before purchasing so I really appreciate you running through all the ins and outs. Are you mixing carbon and plastic aero parts?
Congrats on the new car! And yes front is not carbon. I’d go broke if I had a carbon front lip to replace
Everytime I watch your videos I feel like going out and modding my m3 or doing some diy.
Be careful it’s a slippery slope :). Once you get started it’s hard to stop...As you can see from my videos ha ha but thank you for watching!
I took alot of these considerations in this video and put it into my 535i I'm now pushing almost 500 hp! : D
Wow that’s amazing! Nicely done
CaLxRoyalty I doubt it on a N55 engine. Probably more like 425 without stock turbos and a custom map from a tuner.
@@nicholasmehlert yea bro because you definitely know this guys car🤣
Nice car. I have a 2010 BMW 550I M Sport Package. I love it...
Those are great!
Ooohhh killed me on that non coupe one
Glad you’re back from the dead!
I agree with everything in this video! I do believe that not all cars have the crankhub issue. My DCT M4 had 70k miles with downpipe and tune since 20k and never had the crankhub spin.
I’ve heard that the crankhub spinning is mostly due to using the kickdown feature on the dct cars.
I’ve heard of spun CH with manual cars but it’s so rare.
Love your videos.. and really loving the choice of music
Thank you!!
Once again, outstanding job, Tommy !!
Tommy, I am concerned about scraping/breaking my future front lip and want to go with a good polyurethane one like yours.
The linked one I saw you showcase appears to be carbon fiber.
Would you please link me the poly one?
Congrats on 10k subs my man been watching for a while and you never disappoint with the content
Thanks!! And thanks for helping make it possible
Black door handles would be sick too. Also black rims. and the car would be 100% complete.
Door handles would be a bit much but black wheels maybe
The scrape 😂! Great video though!
Oh I scrape all the time ha ha
Loved the modifications on your M3: would Luv to buy one from you
Thanks. If you’re serious let me know. I’d let it go for the right price
Thought I recognized Rt 34 and World VW....nice vid and info, Thank you!
Good eye. Thanks !!
Tommy wow this video is great!!
Thanks! I’m glad you liked it
Dont play with the Map/Tune until you upgrade the Crank Hub- s55
Very true
5:00
“A lot of owners like to live dangerously”
Me: So you have chosen death.
Haha
Love this guy and his content. Very good 👍 keep it up 👊👊
Thanks!!
Want this car so bad. Got a 2008 335 M Sport so can't complain and am very grateful but want an F80 M3 but more than 3 times the price
Great content. Love the outtakes at the end!!!!
Congrats on 10k subs!
Thanks!!!!
Excellent content. Love the F80.
Thanks !!
That blue seems popular, but I am getting the Aventurin Red Metallic. If I decide to get a custom paint job, I'll either go with a Black Currant Pearl or get the Audi RS5 Sebring Black crystal effect; I love that color! I do like the cosmetic mods you have, and the programming!
Red is always an amazing choice.
Very helpful for my M4
Nice I’m glad!!
Very unique channel and reviews. I love this.
Thanks! I’m glad you’re here
Got most right, but a lot of people say these cars can’t push higher power and boost ratings when they most definitely can! On stock turbos and stock everything you can run full bolt-ons/ spark plugs and a bootmod3 tune with jb4 for diagnostics (my preference) on the stock crank hub and you will be fine (with the dct not the manual from what I know) just use the manual mode in the dct and you won’t have to worry about the crank hub until you push bigger turbos. Also, off the shelf (OTS) maps from bootmod3 most definitely will not give you an extra 100hp so that’s a big no to that. If you actually want a real flash you request the tune from @jordantunedLLC and go full e85 like I have recently. Crank hub will always be the safest option to go when modifying the vehicle though!💪👍 my m3 runs beautifully and I’m pushing about 580-600 rwhp with just those simple things.
Thanks for sharing! I actually recently got my crank hub upgraded and now I’m running on stage 1...stage 2 in the spring
Tommy L Garage cool man! So I need mine done because I’ve recently been pushing higher horsepower and need one. You can mod these cars like crazy!
Also while in America get use to shoes and socks not slippers.
Lol
Such a beautiful car! I love BMW
Thank you!
Love that blue
Thank you. It’s a bit loud sometimes but for the most part I love it to
excellent stuff Tommy....very useful
Glad it was helpful!
what he said "siri, what is today's weather?"
what it should have replied: "can't you just fucking look at the sky?"
it looks soooooooooooo good
Thanks!!
Gratz on 10k
We did it!!! Thank you
Your MUST HAVE list is preaty almost same as mine :D Amazing vidio Tommy :) Keep doing great job!
Thanks !! Great minds think alike
Like the video and the information. Excellent video format.
Thanks for watching!
All F8X it needs: A good Tune with a downpipe, as we know only DP gives you extra hp (as far exhaust) I'm willing to swap mine every 2 years :) (Midpipe is only for sound, if you cant go with the DP the midpipe is the only way to go)> with the DP the car is a bit louder on WOT. and very pleasant to drive around town with my family in the car. well, 1" drop even on lowering springs, front splitter, rear diffuser, side skirts, and trunk lip, 15mm spacers all around, and small cosmetics, and the car looks DOPE as hell! it transforms crazy, exterior wise and as far getting 100hp more, its plenty, 500whp, its enough for the street and to have fun in RWD car. Pozdrawiam! I need to reveal my CAR soon as well!
Nicely said. And We are waiting anxiously!!!
Thank you my men!!!🍻🍻🍻🍻
You got it!
A must have is probably to have a M3 :D
True ;)
Beautiful car 👌. I have an F15 x5(2015) stock and would like to do a few things to it. I believe it has 485hp/ tq so wanna get it over 500 at least and add a front splitter. It's all mineral white so thinking about black-wrapping the roof like you did. Not sure what else but definitely love your car and vids keep it up 👍
That’s a good plan you’ve got there! As long as you don’t overdo it you’ll be fine
Congrats on 10k subs!
Thanks man!!!
It’s funny when he said Hey Siri - my homepad Siri goes on lol 😂
Haha nice !
I know right, mine did the same lol
Great video !!! Loved this.
Thanks :)
You just made me realize that I need this cat in my life!
You won’t be disappointed
Take a look at C63 AMG a beast too :)
Congratz on 10k!
Thank you! We did it! Now I can focus on making my videos better :)
Great video Tommy. 👍🏻
Thanks Mike!
If you tune your Any M car get Dinan peace of mind it’s pricey but it’s worth it in the long run I have on my 2017 M4 comp package since the break in period I like it...
Dinan products have been a hit or miss in the past. Glad you’re enjoying yours
Edison? Nice car neighbor. Greetings from Woodbridge 😂
Good eye !
What an awesome video. Thanks tommy
Glad it was helpful !!
Very Nice M3!!
Thanks!!
Awesome video like always!
Thank you!
Damn Tommy, you been in the gym? Your videos continue to get better and better
Haha thanks. Yes I went back after 5 years of not doing much
Awesome video as always ! 👌🙌🏼
Thanks as always!
Looks like it would drag over any up or down hill. I personally raise all my cars
Raising would look terrible
@@TommyLGarage
I am not about limiting places i can take my car!
It's so hard to watch at 6:37 but the way to remedy that especially if you decide to go back to a carbon fiber lip, is to take the approach at a 45 degree angle slowly. It'll save your lip from scratches and cracks!
True. But scraping is unavoidable
@@TommyLGarage not really if you're focusing on the road and your car isn't so ridiculously slammed to the ground. I guess it depends what suspension you're rolling on and where you're driving. I know with having air ride you can prevent this as you would just adjust the height, but even with coilovers as long as you're not so slammed to the ground you're good lol But whatever, if you're able to get this ride with suspension and carbon fiber, scraping is nothing, just replace it. Enjoy the drive.
Dang Tommy you been working out? Looking kind buff :) Love the videos. I wish I could have a radar detector. They are illegal in VA.
Haha thanks man. Yes a bit here and there. Got back to the gym after a 5 year hiatus
lol getting jacked from doing all this car work. keep it up man; great content once again
Beautiful car brother!
Thank you!
Typically, the new BMW M3/4 have very particular owners, and will have very good idea(s) on what to modify with their high performance sedans/coupes. If some of these so-called owners are already “confused” as where to start in terms of modifying their own M3/4 vehicles, perhaps the vehicle may not be a right fit. At the end-of-the-day, these are very special whips.
Very true
Thank you for your effort and your awesome videos I’m looking for a m3 because my wife has a two-door Audi and two doors don’t work with the family kids don’t like to crawl in the back seats :-)
This is the best fun family car!
IMO the only mods you absolutely need are:
Plastic front lip
EDIT: Lowering - Thanks @Tommy for pointing this omission.
Better air filters (K&N, BMC, etc). You don't need to redo the whole system.
Metal charge pipes. Even if you don't boost they wear down very quickly and are prone to cracking.
Catch can.
Tune & Dyno.
Lowering !
@@TommyLGarage Thanks for catching; for some reason that was gapped out.
Awesome video! Keep posting; this channel is going to grow like crazy! Tons of potential :)
Thank you!!
I don’t even have a m3 and I watched the whole video Lamo you got something good going keep up the good work... btw #DONJ
Thanks !!!!
they are still expensive in Croatia, your car looks amazing
Thanks! By the way I love Croatia !!
How much cost in Croatia this model? :)
I drive a bmw m3 coupe 2019 and it’s very fast I modified it like 1 year ago
Nice! Hope it’s treating you well
Thank u!
Love this type of videos! Thanks!
I’ll be making more of these. Thanks!
10:30 ! true, i do that every time 🤣
Car guy!!
0:07 the feeling when you get your bmw outta the dealer
Haha
Nice M3
Thank you!
