Mate, I have to say, listening to the latest podcast with Edwin and Will, and the others who are to be confirmed, (and let's face it EVERYONE is hoping it's Jack and Ethan 😉), it just made me think that it's so awesome that you are doing what you love, with all your best mates, they're doing what they love too, and you don't have a boss or company to order you around, it's just amazing, and that happiness in what you're doing really shines through in your videos and the podcasts, which are just an absolute joy to listen to and to watch. What a time to be alive when there is so much shit going on, your channel is a welcome and much needed distraction for car enthusiasts young and old 😎 Keep living the dream mate!!
When Alex was saying on the podcast, that there are still people Working for CT like Matt Robinson, I noticed he never mentioned Jack & Ethan, so it definitely looks like they are leaving CT.

If only there was an impartial tamed racing driver that used to drive for a well established (but now dead) TV show that could set lap times for a true showdown 👀
Waiting for Ethan and Jack to pop up in any video now, CT has missed their regular video slot. After what Edwin said on TDC, I’m starting to believe the trio is back! 👀
If it were me I'd have them on the 2nd channel because I really like the new gang. End up with Top Gear revamp attempt 1 vibes otherwise where they had like 17 presenters
I have a *super cheap* BMW e46 330d MANUAL 204 wagon in storage for learning to drift this season, feels like a real Alex buy, £1700 *but* nearly 300k miles!
Picking my 330ci up from Redish next week and looking at the depth of that M3 build my eyes are literally watering about how much that's all going to cost!!! Looking forward to seeing it all finished...may I suggest an advertising deal with Mastercard beforehand 😉
Taylor needs to buy a e46 330d modify it to same spec suspension tyres tune the engine then do a Nurburgring ring trip in all 3 touring to see witch is best all round 😊
I feel like the Hamstermobile might take it. That 330i with that big snaily-boi is probably gonna make 320-330hp or maybe even more with Bruno's wizardy. Plus that's a big ol' snail. I'd love to see you dyno them both prior to the bout so we can see the HP/Torque curves of both. Gonna be interesting to see though!
Got to be honest... after Edwin and Will's announcement, was totally hoping for new news about Jack and Ethan this episode. Please don't keep us in the dark for too long. RIP CT. But super excited to see how things are gonna work now seeing as Taylor and Rory are such huge integral personalities on this channel. Whatever you guys do it's gonna be great and will eclipse the 3mil subs of CT one day. Good luck boys!
I heard that high- milage engines are better for boost due to lower compression :) Turbos are cool but superchargers are much better to handle in terms of stable boost and easier mapping. Plus superchargers dont really change the exhaust note.
That dude needs to pull his hat out of his eyeballs this channel 's almost as good as top gear. If top gear was a 10 out of 10 I would give this a solid 6 out of 10
Am I the only one awarded that this car is going to be near 400hp when Bruno set it well? I'm so jealous of this Rory, what a nice maaachiiiiiiiine you got yourself ! ❤
Tip from a mechanic, and I'm surprised no one else has pointed it out, do not wear watches while working on cars! Great way to get snagged on stuff you don't want to!
This is gonna be sick. The heat soak will kill the cars power on the track but it the should hold up well with 400BHP. There are M54B30 engines drift cars with 450BHP+ on the stock internals.
I've been looking at supercharger/turbo options for my E46 330i Manual Touring. Already got the Scorpion exhaust. I was thinking of one of the Eaton M90/112 kits, but that centrifugal supercharger looks much easier to install. Just need to find a used kit now...
"Giving away a rapid Swedish wagon". That wouldn't happen to be the one that's got a dented bonnet and was on presumably the last Car Throttle video which would also coincide with Ethan and Jack making an appearance?
I love the BMW centric content here. I also wanna see Rory get the exhaust manifolds on with his tune, thay M3 touring will have it's job cutout for it
I'm feeling like the 330i will have it in the bag once it's tuned and sitting on some coilovers, the M3 won't be a pushover though with the extra 1500 or so RPM it has to play with, it should be an awesome match up.
The early X5 wheels can look quite nice on the E46 I've got some on mine currently, 19x9 front 19x10 rear I'd like a smaller diameter but they do look the business
Back in the day I also had a factory German import e46 330d. Similar to yours I don’t think I’ve ever seen one again with such a good spec. It had this gorgeous dark purple interior with all the options blinds etc. must have been something to do with them being German imports with regards to the spec? I was told when I bought it that it was bought by someone in the army direct from Germany and imported when brand new. I guess to dodge vat or something? Either way, I’d love that car back.
I’m pretty sure it was brought in German as it was cheaper to buy in Germany then in here, so people could get a higher spec car for less. I watched a old Top Gear episode from the 90s and there was a Brand new Volvo 850 or V70 that was cheaper to buy in UK spec in Netherlands. Also pretty sure Alex’s 330d touring he had on CT was also a German import.
If it isn't a volvo, it's not a family car. My Volvo V60 is perfect, but you would suit a XC90! The tech in them is next level & the safest cars going!

@AK.2425 hope so, we all want it to happen 🙏
Couldn't agree more. We all love Jack and Ethan by CT is literally throttling them.
It would be great to see them involved in videos with you boys.

Curious, Taylor seems to be exceptionally skilled with that Grindr 🤔
Haahahahaaha 👏
@@adamtench4447Taylor is gay. Grindr is a gay app. It's a double entendre
Fair play son
Great comment😂
Lol 😅😅 well aimed joke sir!
Taylor opening the box is probably the hardest I've laughed for while. Fantastic job and now I want a 330i touring
Ditto
These guys make opening a box hilarious 😂
Good to see Scorpion supporting the channel. Been rocking them on my bikes for years.
fit and finish of that setup was really nice. a proper "bolt on" kit
Always been top exhausts
About that - when Alex is jumping to get it, what’s the green bike

Its so nice for Alex to look after Rory the way he does. That kid has been with Alex through thick and thin
That exhaust bracket is brilliant
Can we get that on a shirt please 🙏 Auto Alex. I've been waiting ages for my 'Rory' merch ❤️
Buuuuut
5:01 that transition was clean af 😲

Have you listened to their latest podcast? Some hints dropped there, unless it's just shit stirring because it's funny, lol.
@@corkey159 they are really good at hiding secrets on the podcast!
Alex definitely didn't say they were having a long term guest who is known for making a bed out of a yellow Ford Focus 👀

@@R03333dude nothing beats Alex Jack Ethan energy, nobody, you think car throttle has 3 mln subs for no particular reason…
Who knew Taylor was so good with a Grindr and a wood saw. Taylor…you opening that box nearly made me shit myself with laughter
My mate managed to slice a motorbike tyre in half without popping the inner tube, I was shocked aha 😂
What a wonderful thoughtful gift on the bracket!! Can't wait to see when Taylor gets one.
@03:27, Taylor realised that he would have to up his game
Nice to see Scorpion are still about. I had one on a Calibra turbo 30 years ago.
Sounded fantastic and went like the clappers.
it's gonna be great having the TDC channel next to the BMW channel.
TDC would also probably be a BMW channel as that what Edwin likes.
With every new video with Taylor, I like him even more. He’s such a good fit
"You loosen it, I'll suck it" Not the first time Taylor has said those words 😅😜🥰
Taylor opening boxes was hilarious, who knew you could have so much fun opening boxes with a handsaw and a grinder
Hard work and humility are truly commendable. Keep reaching.

You can say “clamps”!

This reminds of my old 330I e46 touring. Sadly it was stolen while I was away on holiday.
Such a brilliant machine! Can’t wait to see more!

Gonna be interesting to see though!
From experience, the 330i in a supercharged format, can run 330bhp with ease. Trust me, it goes like a bullet too.
Leaving car throttle was the best move Alex made, he’s so much more modest and humble here and now..love Taylor he’s our favourite character.
Eagerly awaiting the Top Dead Center video
@12:29 Rory's face and the hamster buuuut is just so hilarious :p
I'm a simple man I see I click
Me too I look forward to these videos so much - I’ve clicked like before watching too.

I'll add this to the 'what could possibly go wrong' playlist 🤣🤣
Love Taylor's energy in this one.
My favourite time of the week is the new autoalex video
Ive met the CEO from Vengineering, hes a lovely guy. Glad to see the company on the channel!
Was this ever tuned??????? Love to see a post video!
Taylor with an angle grinder is on the same level as Jeremy Clarkson with a hammer 😂
Taylor definitely has lots of experience with grinders aswell as Grindr. 🤣

But £9k ?, you're having a laugh surely ?@@Viper836

Would it be worth seeing if your mate Ben Collins would stop by and drive both on the track to give both cars the best chance?? 🚗🚗
I recognise that astra in the shedfest advert from a max power feature, WITH POSTER, from about 20 years ago.
Can we have another episode just dedicated to Taylor’s fantastic opening skills
great video. stoked for the next part with tuning and the maifold
Taylor is a giddy, hilarious menace in the shop. 😂
I love it. That exhaust note Sounds like my old 325i E30. Can’t wait to see once the headers are fitted and it’s been tuned.
Tip from a mechanic, and I'm surprised no one else has pointed it out, do not wear watches while working on cars! Great way to get snagged on stuff you don't want to!
@Autoalexcars Its been 6 months... what happened to this? I want to see the Touring on the dyno and the race!
Check the fibre cable with your mmi adapter. I had this issue and forgot to replug it in. Came up with all sorts of issues.
Where is the update video?
This is gonna be sick. The heat soak will kill the cars power on the track but it the should hold up well with 400BHP. There are M54B30 engines drift cars with 450BHP+ on the stock internals.

Look at Hyde motor works if you wanna go down supercharger route
11:26 I'll open that (procides to start the angle grinder )
i love this channel just a couple of mates fixing shit and breaking shit.
Taylors ADHD is on fire this episode. Sheesh I love it
9:59 man simple, man like noise, man happy
"Giving away a rapid Swedish wagon". That wouldn't happen to be the one that's got a dented bonnet and was on presumably the last Car Throttle video which would also coincide with Ethan and Jack making an appearance?
@ 4.40 the jumper is the least of your worries, you looked like you were gonna have a finger off 😂
The exhaust bracket had me in stitches, and the appreciation of the shiny tailpipe is so real! 🤣👌
The best part is he worked for bmw he is a mechanic and he still didn’t know the difference between a turbo and a super charger
That bracket is the funniest $hit I've seen in ages 🤣🤣🤣
this is a great series, can't wait for the follow up
I love the BMW centric content here. I also wanna see Rory get the exhaust manifolds on with his tune, thay M3 touring will have it's job cutout for it
3:24 Taylor you have not even bought the nice man a pint yet. 🤣
Taylor with the saw made me lose my shit laughing here 😂👌 Brilliant
I have wanted to do this build for YEARS 😍 I’m sooooo jealous ! Even down to the sunroof, this car is perfect 👌🏿
Taylor the Super Charger Genie!! Genius.
11:34 Taylor!! You really do love Grinder don’t ya! 😉 📱
Taylor is a dab hand with the old grndr 👌🏿
It does make a good noise under load. Lovely stuff
Cant wait to see more of these cars! Miss my ESS supercharged 330i.
Hurry up get Barney done need to see this race asap.
Nice ride and build Rory. Where do I get the manifold for a right hand drive e46 like yours?
I'm feeling like the 330i will have it in the bag once it's tuned and sitting on some coilovers, the M3 won't be a pushover though with the extra 1500 or so RPM it has to play with, it should be an awesome match up.
I love watching and listening to you three.
330 supercharged will win hands down especially with a decent tune on it and some form of iat cooling. From a fellow 330 supercharged owner 😉
I’ve heard the m54b30 oil pump sprocket nut doesn’t like high rpms
Taylor with that saw, oh my god, that was an unexpected laugh there 🤣
absolutely love your channel so cheers me up after work and you guys are not the new top gear, but replacement ❤

Love it!! I think to make it even more fair. You both do a lap in each of the cars and take an average from that
I can say for this from experience carless headers completely changes everything.

so youre saying a honda odyssey is not a family car?
Is the warped radiator (bowed downwards) actually a sign of the head gasket is on the way out?
I reckon the torque from that supercharger from the line and the last straight at Curborough might just pip it for the 330i.......
We need a Taylor unboxing video 🙌
I bought BC Racing coil overs because of you. Thanks I love em!
