My 470HP LS1 BMW E36 is BACK & BETTER Than Ever!

[@nogaragedrift]

When I wrapped my roof I removed the glass gaskets front and back plus lowered sunroof. Made those areas much easier. Thanks for all the great content!

[@matt13ross]

I was thinking you couldn’t remove those trim pieces without pulling the glass. How did you do that? Thanks!

[@cleanasdirt6832]

I just get blown away at how you approach your projects. Cover doesn’t fit, you tinker on it until it does. You say you’re not good at wraps, but give it a good shot. Love the content, it makes no sense you don’t have 10 times the subs. You have a great channel going. 👍🇨🇦

[@matt13ross]

Thanks a bunch! I wish I had more subs, but the channel has steady growth. Hoping the new overpriced truck helps with growth, lol.

[@Karl-by6ub]

Looks great with the gloss black 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@dante_lsx]

Big fan of the black roof, it flows really nice with the carbon

[@matt13ross]

I think so too, but might change it, idk lol.

[@Engineerboy100]

Rust remover first would make that job 10× easier, ask me how I know 🤔

[@ozi6151]

Huge respect for you that you are doing all off yourself

[@matt13ross]

Thanks! I try to do everything myself. It's the only way to learn!

[@kevinshasteen5682]

FYI, Rustoleum's "Sunrise Red" is a direct match for BMW's Hellrot Red

[@trainingtobeinthenba3092]

the car looks apsolutely amazing, i am 14 and am planning on getting an e36 in 1 year. i also want to LS swap it. thankyou so much for your ideas and dedication :))

[@trainingtobeinthenba3092]

i was looking for possible mods to put on my future e36 and I stumbled across your videos. i love your content and I really encourage you to never quit because there are some absolute legends or fan on this channel :))

[@matt13ross]

Thanks!! Get to building!

[@E36tyler]

Dude, excellent job on that rust repair! This has got me looking at my car with the same rust spot on the roof. I need to fix it before it gets bad

[@matt13ross]

Thanks! It's not so bad, the worst is paying for the windshield job.

Keep those uploads coming. We both need that 100K plaque !

[@matt13ross]

My man!

[@RalphsGarage]

Well that was and abrupt ending haha. Luckily the rust on mine wasn't as bad. The safelite guy went to his next job and gave me a few hours to treat the few rust spots I had before he came back.

[@matt13ross]

Didn't want to ramble on at the end because people just skip it anyway lol. Only a few hours to fix??

[@RalphsGarage]

@@matt13ross yeah I have 1 bad spot. I ground it down and hit it with POR15 I'm gonna have to pull the window molding back and paint but not bad

[@matt13ross]

That's not bad at all.

[@RalphsGarage]

@@matt13ross check your IG

I didn't find anything?

Good job...you made good progress..gloss black black roof goes well.. Very inspiring..Car looking great again!!..👍🏽🏁

[@matt13ross]

Thank you! Fun build for sure.

[@mg_streetkandi]

@@matt13ross Looking at your videos makes me wanna pick my GO-pro back up a bit and show what I've been to...Very Inspiring stuff.

[@matt13ross]

DO IT!! I always tell people to give KZbin a try, never know where it will lead!

[@hornhospital]

Matt, you freaked me out! I went looking for Boosted Apex and it wasn't here....then I noticed the new channel name. Looking good man!

[@matt13ross]

Haha, yup, just Matt (Ross) now! Thanks!

[@TTcarone]

I hate this guy so much because he's doing everything himself and saving so much money. Everything that he does I have to pay someone. Anyways, just kidding bro, I don't hate you, i just envy you 😁 Great job with the channel, been watching all the E36 vlogs and hailing from Jamaica, the car is looking great bro! 👍🏽

[@matt13ross]

Haha! 😂 thank you!

[@e1kaiser482]

I love the content and quality of your videos! But i really think that you deserve more views

[@matt13ross]

Thank you! I put a LOT of time into editing so the videos are enjoyable to watch. Unfortunately, I don't do the crazy stuff that KZbin loves to promote lol.

[@e1kaiser482]

@@matt13ross Welcome! the videos are amzing like this, so enjoyable to watch and a humor that i like. No, the prob is that youtube just promote the people that give them money and not the really good ones Im actually glad to see content like yours than the junk crazy things that youtube want that we watch

[@jdean830]

You've convinced me to subscribe. That car has to be a blast!! Did you feel the fast 102 intake was worth it with your combo?

[@matt13ross]

Thanks for the sub! Not sure if the intake did much, but it looks great! Would probably help more with a bigger engine and better cam.

[@erichwohlfarth6862]

Good job! I like LS1 in bmw. I like see to you getting 840ci bmw 1997

[@matt13ross]

No 8 series for me, too big! lol

[@erichwohlfarth6862]

@@matt13ross it 1997 and have two door it looked like as corvette

Oh man I'd take a Vette over another BMW (I already have 2 lol).

[@erichwohlfarth6862]

@@matt13ross U gonna put LS1 in other bmw?

[@matt13ross]

Nope, boosted S50.

[@rdgarcia00]

470HP from an LS1 is real nice. How were you able to extract more power? Cam, heads, nitrous?

[@matt13ross]

Cam, intake manifold, headers x pipe, tune, heads. Lots of little stuff. 410 whp.

[@rdgarcia00]

@@matt13ross so 470hp is what you expect at the crank or do you have some fun content coming up to bump the HP?

[@rdgarcia00]

Either way, your build is very well done. Good job and keep up the great work.

[@matt13ross]

410whp equals about 470 crank hp. Thanks!

[@becomematrix]

YEah I been there as well on my e36... a lot of surface rust spots. You really ought to take out all the black spots or else it will come back....

[@matt13ross]

What black spots?

[@becomematrix]

At 3:38 I see some dark spots which to me look like some minor pitting in the metal. Maybe it’s because of the light how it’s reflected off the metal but Im not sure.

[@matt13ross]

I think it's just the light (hopefully).

[@becomematrix]

@@matt13ross yeah you treated it with rust encapsulated paint so it will be fine

[@sLothiC]

wrap it Satin Black, looks 10 times better ! black gloss wrap always looks shitty

[@matt13ross]

You think? Hrm. Ideally, I'd have a carbon fiber roof lol.

[@sLothiC]

Would be the best solution yep 👌 there are some Options for this Here in Europe. Or you just laminate a few layers over it

[@matt13ross]

Someone actually make a whole replacement CF roof. Goals if I can ever justify that huge cost.

[@sLothiC]

In Europe its Like 300-500€

[@matt13ross]

Lot of labor too.

[@Gr33kChief]

auto x? sold you got my sub homie cant wait to get mine and build one!!!

[@matt13ross]

Haha thanks! Love Auto X, just wish I could get to more of them around me.

@@matt13ross my buddy is gonna freak out when i show him this car. He did an ls swap for an rx7

[@matt13ross]

That's a nice swap too!

[@lsxfirebird5580]

Hey bro still no issues with the fuel lines being so close to the headers? Awesome build btw makes me want to get mine running again lol

[@matt13ross]

Nope, no issues!

Nice job bro Love it 👍🔥

Thanks! 🔥

[@SOMT91]

I was trying to rewatch through the Playlist and couldn't find this... Did you have to clearance the tunnel at all for the T56?

[@matt13ross]

Nope, fits great.

[@lachydeluca4290]

What’s your rear end setup? Thinking of going ls in my e36 but not sure what to do for the rear end

[@matt13ross]

Stock 3.15 LSD for now.

[@parisienii6522]

You should wear a mask it’s not good to breathe all that rust

[@nelsonx4235]

Quad exhaust?

[@matt13ross]

Nope, dual straight pipe exhaust with X pipe to dual OEM looking tips.

[@John.ThirteenPoint6969]

A battery chainsaw has more power

[@James45792]

Hey Matt, is this car running aircon?

[@matt13ross]

No, I keep meaning to add it but I have too many other projects now.

[@NotHardBro]

as a wrapper, this is painful to watch hahahah

[@matt13ross]

It was painful to do lol

[@NotHardBro]

@@matt13ross its all about stretching it in the right areas man. you really just want to glass it out mostly, there has to be some tension. its best if two people stand on both sides of the car and hold it like a sheet both pulling towards each other and also expanding the wrap to the left and right at the same time. e z
