I just wonder how long will the a45 fair in the long run. It already boosts at extremely high psi and now with a chip even higher. I'd take the m135i any day. Also it would be more fair to compare a 1m vs the a45

Very interesting.
I somehow feel these guys alter results to exaggerate the gains of their Chipbox tho.
Seems like the results are correct, but maybe the gaps each car got was exaggerated.

I was at the SOCSA drags last weekend. That Chipbox A45 AMG was there. A blue A45 also arrived. Not sure if it had any mods or anything but IF I heard correctly they both ran a 13.5 1/4 mile time. As some of you may know the audio system at ODI is pretty soft.

If I did hear correctly I'm not all that impressed with it.

Pretty much what I'm thinking Kimeran

Edit to add: Also heard the owner claim this is the ''fastest A45 in SA''

Chipbox results are indeed over exaggerated and gaps between chipped a45 and chipped m135i was same as the stock run

+1

The "G6 GTi" I mentioned to you has chipbox. The owner claims the power they told him, well they work on percentage.

Lol, told him to go dyno the car and get disappointed.

On paper anything is possible:thumbs:

Sick Video, I think the m135 does ok stock for stock remember it is not a full blown M car. I still wanna catch one of these on the roads and see.

I have been waiting to catch a 1M on a road but they are hard to find :) Also only seen a few m135i's lately. Where does everyone hide ?

The last time i saw a 1M was at vodacom parking lot in Midrand sick car :)

Hey stop hunting you own species man:roflol:
The M135 and m235 are really running well Awesome cars bru But still Ive seen a few videos now with the AMG racing 135 Coupes and hatches Merc should atleast come try against the real M boys and then begin its bragging they seem do be doing so well.

BMW ///M FTW

Hhmmmm I think we need to organise a 1M vs M135i race for scientific testing :rollsmile:

Will be awesome to see this...if you need gopro....you know where to find me haha...I think it will be quite a close race if you ask me.

Especially if its ZF 8 speed auto vs 1M...
Fair way to test is manual M135i vs the 1M

About the chip box.....they always say one gets this & that result....best way to test is to dyno before chip box install..and after chip box install....same dyno....same day....

The stock M135i vs chip box A45 AMG result & chip box M135i vs chip box A45 AMG result looks similar....:tease:

@M4life with the amount of VW's i slay there is no competition :rollsmile: Please K04 dudes don't hunt me down for that comment lol :roflol:

I think 1m will be quicker vs the m135i but it will be a close match, btw what times does a 1m run on the 1/4 mile ?

I think testing is definitely in order.
Conclusive for ourselves!

I dont trust the Chipbox results.
They are definitely skewed. Judging by how the Chipbox M135i dropped the stock A45 and the stock M135i stuck to the Chipbox A45, the Chipbox M135i should have taken the chips, leaving the A45 with a chip on its shoulder and a pain in the box.

Wonder how much power the a45 puts out after the chip tune??

Still cant believe it's a 2.0 4cylinder that runs like that!! :bravo:

From my science experiments with a non stock 1M my prediction would be:

1M=M235i > M135i if all variables were stock? :rollsmile:

All these chips and stocks. What are we having lunch at the JSE???
