what will win in a drag race between a BMW M4 CSL tuned by Manhart or a BMW XM label red tuned by manard while we're going to find out cuz I'm going to race them over the standing quarter mile I'm Matt Watson and you're watching carwow this BMW XM label red is powered by a 4. 4 L twin turbo V8 that's M to an electric motor now this car normally produces 748 horsepower and 1,000 Newt M of torque but Manhart has fitted the car with a piggy back ECU and this has increased the power and torque to 800 horsepower and 1100 n m of torque power is sent to all four wheels for an 8-speed torque converter automatic gearbox and the car weighs a colossal 2. 7 tons and cost from around £210,000 this BMW M4 CSL has also been tuned by Manhart it's powered by 3 l twin turbo inline 6-cylinder petrol engine and it normally makes 550 horsepower and 650 newm of torque however manhard has done an ECU remap fitted a intake a new downpipe and catalytic converter and so now this car produces 702 horsepower and 880 new met of torque it sends power to the rear wheels only VI an 8speed torque converter automatic gearbox the car weighs in at around 1,600 kilos and cost from around £ 227,000 so Sam these cars couldn't seem any different apart from the fact that they're BMWs and they're both tuned by man heart I've got luxury I've got comfor I've got SE eating for five people of a hybrid so tax breakes I can run on electric power more so very heavy what do you think is going to happen well this is rear wheel drive that's four-wheel drive so off the line that's going to be better I would imagine this is got 702 horsepower so a lot 880 newm of torque and this is the CSL base so it's lighter so it's not going to be sitting down on its power so who knows and in terms of comfort no I am not comfort I've got my testicle shelf which I don't see the point to I've got scaffolding utterly pointless I've got a helmet net so to speak utterly pointless so yeah I'd rather be you no one's ever said they'd rather be me in my life so thanks for that it made me feel a little bit better about myself should we drag race and see what actually happens oh first first first sound [Music] check V8 n with some sound augmentation in the cabin and a horrendous soft limiter up four I think you're going to absolutely destroy me cuz this does have a tuned exhaust but so does yours you are screwed my [Music] friend no matter how old I get that never becomes childish it doesn't I don't care what anyone says it's so enjoyable anyway Let's Race see if this race is going to be enjoyable [Music] oh we hading off the line then and then he like tell its power come on [Music] now I thought it'd be coming back at me now but it's not oh mate that was pretty close that was so you actually got a better launch and then it's like it cut your power and mine just obviously cuz i' had four-wheel drive traction kept on going got ahead of you and I thought oh he was going to come back at me but you didn't I don't think it's the power I think it's the torque of this and the traction control is or the launch control is really just trying to manage it it kind of went into a kind of a plateau in fourth gear there as well I thought I was going to re win and it just held station I think spinning its Wheels the whole time best two out of three right that's one n to me let's have another [Music] go oh hello better better better come on now oh no come on no no no no no no no no no no come on come on [Music] come on no it's what happened there what what you were coming back you definitely going to win then you like drop back did you fluff a gear check you don't even have to change gears mate it or do it automatically yeah it's coming off boost in fifth it's like it's riding a wave of boost and then in fifth it just plateus and it just holds and then it picks up boost again it's like I don't know is there a wastegate thing I don't know it's mechanical stuff but yeah it's losing boost in fifth you were winning that weren't you so no matter what you do it's not going to get better than that no that run was better because of the tires and that's it and then it did the same thing again yeah it did the same boost Plateau bit there again but that was far more visible because I was next to you so we had something to scale it to well there we go it's close though so then what exactly happened well the xm1 it completed the standing quarter mile in 11.
