my name is Alex and this is where i post my videos :) Instagram: alex.k.lee?igsh... Photography: akl.production?... CALLD: / calldlifest. . Real Estate: alex-lee.realtytexas.com/
my "momcar" just came back from the tuner. DP, Midpipe, Springs, Spacers and Quad pipes. Thing is a BEAST. I prefer it over the X3M (even stock) and the X5 M50i.
Single turbo 135i owner here as well, I don't wanna sell my 135 as I'm already in too deep with blood sweat and tears but I need a new daily and I use to work at the BMW dealership when these came out in 2018 and told myself I'm gonna have one and now they're becoming affordable and I've been watching the X3 M40 market for the past few years now but I plan to just add this as my daily and my 135 as my "Taco Tuesday" night car 😂
@@alexleeteehee E36 Is my first love and I had 2 so far and I really want a clean 328 vert to boost over an m3 only because there's more meat on the walls between cylinders and it literally shares the same ZF 5spd trans as the M3 and my previous 2 shifted like butter and can hold 700+ whp without M tax. My crew has clean e30s e36s with swaps (all BMW Engines no 2j or LS)
I have exactly the same car 😂. Also coming from heavily modified n54's single turbo i love this thing . I only have a down pipe stage 2 on e40 no secondary . That thing its amazing.. waiting for a hybrid turbo now ... try launch control ... you will like it 😊
Whats the specs on your wheels? Looking to get some for mine, not sure what size and offset to do, yours look sweet so hoping to get something similar in size and offset.
If you got a family or need to haul any fair size cargo, X3 all day. If you don't have a family or need for a lot of cargo area, I'd actually recommend checking out M240i, coupe. Same powertrain, but coupe.
@@Highlander1432 not at all, bm3 has this all intergraded. it starts getting intricate once you introduce port injection for aftermarket hybrid turbos or big single
How funny, your "mom's car" is the same GLK 350 we just bought for our daughter to use as our "other" car right before we bought the 2019 BMW X3 M40i to go with it for my wife (we traded in an Ascent and BMW 530e evenly for these two). That GLX is fun as hell actually.
lmao I was playing around with my M40i as well for a whole day... then when I finally flashed it, it was all fine... car turned off.... says to wait for 30secs before turning it back on... car didn't start and I was panicking... I tried to flash it back to stock and it gave me a warning message saying it cannot be flashed due to low battery voltage HAHAHA!
@@dand8340 tbh, to me it’s not bad bc i love that “motorsport” smell. i can see how to some people it’s not nice. but it definitely smells like you’re at a go kart track when you park and get out
Bro i bought the same exact car a month ago. It’s an absolute beast. I got the same color and year. Love to see videos on it because I want to do some work to it to but i’m not sure how to get into tuning the car since it’s a 2019 and i’m not sure if the dme is locked and stuff so keep making these videos bro. If you got an instagram or something i’d love to talk about some things abt the car because i’m not really a car expert but i wanna get a lot of stuff done to it as well
2020 m40i here. I've got absolutely zero regrets. It really is a big supra lol
NO CAP
dude this is awesome content keep it going im picking up a X3 M40i in like 9 weeks so stoked
Thanks! Will do!

need that TU pump 🥲, then i think i’ll get a project e36. keep this mom mobile mild for a bit 😂
Thanks for sharing! The b58 is perhaps the best engine out there overall. Is it a vrsf catted downpipe?
catless!
I found your video very entertaining! I have a ‘23 X3 M40i, but I won’t be making it louder, but yours sounds Bitchin’.
love turning the car on in parking lots and breaking necks 😂
How many miles were on this X3 and have you had any issues with anything as i am looking to buy same car used as well. Thanks
haven’t had any issues! just main maintenance. purchased at 78k miles and now at 98mi

20x9 +25 (255/45)
20x10 +33 (295/35)
12mm spacers all around with extended lug bolts (from amazon)
Thanks bro. Wanna buy this. Was conflicted between 3 series and X3
x3 for the XTRA comfort and utility and convenience 😂🫡

Hey man, can you give a link to the downpipe ? From where did you get it ?
i just got it from a dude who had extra laying around. he probably ordered bulk from alibaba
Keep going bro!!!!! Ima help u make it
much love 🤞🏼
I have one as well
Cool video
Does 2019 have afuel pump that can handle boltons+E85 ?
it’s the gen 1. so it needs a upgraded fuel pump (dorsch, TU (supra), or spool to run stage2+ on e30+ or custom maps

Adds complications to tuning and more expenses

@alexleeteehee
I was thinking JB4 E30 and DP then call it a day
@@Highlander1432 do you need your dme unlocked?

@@alexleeteehee lol best response just made me decided to go catless as well... Been on the fence about hi flow cat or just decat lol
@@dand8340 always catless dp🤠
How did you pay for this?
by working hard 🤠
Mom cars?.....🤨....These kids have no idea what they are talking about. This video is not worth watching....smh.
thanks for watching 🤠

check the description of the video for my social!
DME is locked after June 2020. Anything made before that is good to go for tuning.
