@@NWAuto Hopefully people take your advice. That's one big thing I stress for newer bmw owners. Do your maintenance and preventative maintenance before anything else. You gotta stay on top of it.

Just install BM3 last night on the F10x N55 and it's amazing. Your are very accurate on what you said. Big power jump at first sign, drive smooth, no issue, power die at 5000RPM. Keep posting man, good luck with the channel.
@@NWAuto Yes, since last night. I could not imagine how fast it will be driving the M240i or M2. I found the car very speedy and it's a 5 series, the car is not chill anymore
@@John-qc1zv The problem now is that you will get used to it and want more. That always happens. I'm at stage 2 and now I'm looking into the Bootmod3 e30 tune.
Honestly the torque is the best part of tuning these cars … at low speed the ability to downshift and just overtake people is crazy and I have XDRIVE so it literally just boogies
Good info on the differences. Love the POV video to help get a sense of the drive experience. Have you encountered any additional fuel/exhaust odors in the cabin due to the down pipe?
Thanks for the feedback. It helps a lot. I have a catted down pipe so I barely notice a difference. I smell some fuel when I stand directly behind the car. Doesn’t really get in the cabin.
Nice vid. Just bought my first bmw and am super impatient waiting for it to be delivered. lol Watching ppl doing mods dreaming about what I’m going to do
I don't think you need 'bigger' tyres, just better ones. My M140i is only running 411bhp/576nm at the moment, and has smaller tyres (245/35/18 on the rear), and the Pilot sport 4 tyres are pretty good really. Going to 460bhp+ soon.....
@@NWAuto Yes the M140i in the UK is only RWD, we didn't get the xDrive version here. It's still a bit sketchy in the wet, but in the dry it's really very good and I'd have to be a bit careless to spin it. The pilot sport 4S are even better in the dry, but they are much worse in the wet, so the normal pilot sport 4 are the best compromise I think. They seem to be wearing well too, which was a bonus.
Bruh these cars are fast as heck I’m on stage 1 and keep up with scatpacks and coyotes really well haven’t tried an ss yet but these were all random role races on the free way I beat both by a bumper most likely stock besides a muffler delete on both cause they were pretty loud
Yeah people asked my why I didn't buy a Lexus IS350 since Lexus is known for luxury and reliability. But you can't buy an IS350 and throw a flash tune on it and have it be this fast. These BMWs are special cars.
@@NWAuto I currently own a 2012 is 350 and plan on switching to a f30 335i would you recommend? The 350 has only given me 1 problem over the 3 years I have owned it and it was a $75 diy, how is the realibility of a f30 335i???
@@fr3dyy232 I have a video where I went over every problem I had with my car after nearly three years of ownership. You should check that out. The IS350 is definitely more reliable. But the 335i is faster stock and can easily be modified for way more power.
Once I go stage 2 plus on mhd ill be pushing 390hp and 480 torque which is crazy. Its ganna be huge difference from my current tune. Best cars for tuning 👌
Also get a larger intercooler and larger flowing charge pipes not like the VRSF restrictive chargepipe. I have the Protuningfreaks charge pipe and it flows more than the VRSF one.
After 400hp it is very hard to put all this power to the ground and all these hp start loseing sense. I have seen how m3 and m4 have a hard time to put power to the ground and how stock 2019 m340i xDrive with 385hp beats stock m4 with 430hp in a quarter mile drag race
Yeah thats why the new M3 will have an xDrive version for the firs time ever. Its been raining a lot where I live so I've had to take it easy on the throttle.
@@valeriyGennadyevich I'll buy a CPO G80 in 3 years if we get a good fix for the grill from after market companies. I'd still probably get it in RWD though since I want a manual and I'm not sure if AWD with manual will be available.
I find your videos really helpful. I live in California and I don't have access to good gas. Finding anything above 91 is difficult. I bought a 2016 340i m-sport a couple weeks ago. I love the car and the power. I am looking at an MST Intake, vrsf downpipe (high flow catted). I will eventually go stage 1 bm3. Do I need to change the charge pipe? I really like the burbles on the m sport exhaust - I just want them 20% louder - I like the deep tone and low-end pops nothing excessive though as I have neighbors and don't want to be "that guy"
Glad they helped. I'm actually shopping for a 340i right now and I plan on making a ton of videos on that car. I don't get 93 where I live either. And from what I've read, you don't need to do the charge pipe for stage 1 on the B58. The charge pipe upgrade was required on the N55 because one end of the charge pipe was connected to a moving part(engine), and the other was connected to a non moving part(intercooler). This caused some flex and end would crack under high boost. The B58 doesn't have this issue because the intercooler is bolted to the engine. But you can still do the charge pipe if you wanna be 100% sure you will never have any issues.
@@NWAuto Yes that's exactly what I read about the charge pipe and 340's. I may do it at some point just for peace of mind. I hope you find a nice 340!

People use eco mode? 😂😂😂 Might as well not exist in my car Anyways awesome video, I'm in about the same place as you. Looking at stage 1 bm3, but downpipe is kind of a no go, thanks CA. Hope the transmission tune and power bump will still be a little bit present
@@NWAuto yeah that is an option. Haven't done a downpipe swap yet so I'm not super aware of how long it takes. I don't have a lift either so I'd be on ramps or jack stands. I guess traffic makes sense haha but doesn't it just disable the turbo spooling?
Yeah I saw that. Bootmod3 doesn't give me a stage 2+. Maybe they will update it and add the map eventually. The best I can do for now is the Bootmod3 E30 tune.
What would you recommend for someone that is trying to keep their car reliable and oem as possible. I am planning on not removing the cats I’m trying to keep my car stock as possible. The only thing I will do is cat back exhaust system, and I do have a aftermarket warranty, not a BMW warranty. Would you recommend JB4 or Bm3.
Any chance you could post a vid like this (interior POV) with the windows up? I have a 2015 F32 with the MPE and curious to see how your interior engine sound is with the downpipe. Even with the MPE I can barely hear anything with the windows closed
Yeah I'll make one and let you know when it's out. But I used to have the MPE and I know what you mean. These interiors are insulated pretty well. Even my current setup with AWE Touring exhaust and downpipe is much quieter inside with windows up.
Just got a 2015 335 ordered AWE exhaust intake and boot mode . Am in California so emission rule suck. Not sure if a down pipe and charge pipe is worth the hassle? Any advice
Hasn't really snowed where I live since I bought the car. But if it did I think it would be just fine since I have good tires. I would just take it easy on the gas. My biggest concern is other drivers being stupid and hitting me.
even with bootmod3 the car is still stock if you really want to experience it more go get an LSD and good suspension this is the only thing that is different in driving an ma car and non m car other than power and wide body
iPhone cameras are really good these days. Maybe add a GoPro with tripod at some point and you should be fine. How are you getting the cars in your review videos?
I don't have any experience with it. But I'm seeing some posts in the forums where people with MPPK tried different tunes. You can try asking in a forum or F30 Facebook group
Hello NW Auto. I'm driving a 335i ActiveHybrid 3 with Stage 1 tune, so 400hp. It's doing what you describe in the video, hard upshifting with a noticeable kick. Especially when cold. When the engine warms up, it's much less noticeable. Higher gears aren't distinguishable, but lower gears are. This car was tuned in 2017, according to the previous owner. Does this sound like a tune thing, or something else? I did do both adaptation resets, and it might have helped a little, hard to say. I also cleaned my MAF. There are no codes. Basically first 20 minutes when driving cold, low gear shifts are quite punchy, and when slowing down to an intersection, turning right and applying more gas after braking, it might downshift quite hard and it feels like a kick from behind and it's trying to figure out what I'm doing. Trans fluid was changed and trans serviced like 2 years ago. This happens on all driving modes, sport, etc. Kicking might be the wrong word, it's more like, I can easily feel gear changes. The accelerator is also pretty eager, just by pressing my toe down on it, the car is already ready to fly, so there is no hesitation.
I can't tell for sure what it is. Data logging might help. But for me doing the trans tune helped smooth things out. And I just made sure to let it warm up properly
@@NWAuto New bootmod3 is in. Initial shift from 1st to 2nd when cold is still punchy, but it does seem smoother now, though every lower gear still makes a very definitive "pause" and I can tell when gears shift. I'll try the stock tune some day, but it does seem better. I'm not sure if this is what you're experiencing as well with the tune.
@@NicoEvaluates yeah I had that happen after installing my downpipe and going stage 2. But it only happened for a few minutes after cold start and got better as the car warmed up. I wonder if XHP flash could help with that
@@AK-qj6mb I've been around a 335i that had a muffler delete and kept the stock resonated midpipe. It wasn't too loud. You could start with a muffler delete and then buy a performance muffler if it ends up being annoying. Or just do a resonator delete and downpipe.
I am definitely planning on buying a Dragy and doing that. But that was never the point of this video. In this video I just wanted to explain my experience with the three different tunes.
Finally someone with a brain who explains the details not just saying "wow" "so fast" "pull so hard"
Thanks and I know what you mean. You really gotta experience it to know the difference, but I do my best to explain.

high flow or catless downpipe and aluminum charge pipe. You can also upgrade the intercooler

The display and everything on it is stock. I just had the numbers on the sport displays increased after I tuned it.
My next car will definitely be a F30 🔥
but how do you know how many horsepowers gives u that stage 1
The Bootmod3 website shows about how much HP you will be making on each map
For stage 1 can you leave everything stock including the exhaust?
Yeah you can. But I recommend installing at least an aluminum charge pipe. The stock one is plastic and tends to break with higher boost.

@@AK-qj6mb I've been around a 335i that had a muffler delete and kept the stock resonated midpipe. It wasn't too loud. You could start with a muffler delete and then buy a performance muffler if it ends up being annoying. Or just do a resonator delete and downpipe.
@@NWAuto thank you so much man keep up the good content appreciated it
@@NWAuto hey man last question can you send the link oh where to get the Ethernet adapter for the iPhone
if stage 2 had more power i’m pretty sure id be in jail
Thats how I feel, but I still wish Bootmod3 had stage 2 plus.
Power corrupts. Never enough
Thats what Im saying
Pure turbo+keyed crank hub.....
Do you need the crank hub done on N55?
I tried both MHD is better.
What do you like more about MHD?
What wheels are those?
Style 763M replica wheels. Got them from Ebay a while ago, but I can't find them anymore.
Show us dragy results for stock/stage1/stage2, "power come up" is a useless statement
I am definitely planning on buying a Dragy and doing that. But that was never the point of this video. In this video I just wanted to explain my experience with the three different tunes.
