Benji335i

Appreciate the advice, I just thought manufacturers are very conservative with figures to cover there backs! If that’s the case I intend to uprate the clutch components SSP over a lot for my gear box!! Move already updated the software which increases the pressure applied. it will be a slow build I’m in no rush and I don’t plan to cut any corners either. your input is appreciated and I’ll do every precaution necessary so I have no issues.

ECU will be custom tuned, incorporating all my mods. i already have: Catless downpipes 7” FMIC Charge pipe bmw P exhaust oil catch can oil cooler valve updated PCV and cap Latest Bmw injectors delphi ignition coil kit 2 step spark plugs drive belt kit 1st step is to forge what I have Then I will deal with ge chassis, drivetrain, diff and trans. Lastly is the turbo kit with necessary fueling. Appreciate the advice and guidance.

I plan to do this properly and focus on the whole package not just the power output. The 520NM is the conservative figure set my Getrag. However that figure is off what a company website says that doesnt want to be liable for miss leading or miss representing its product. So instead they under rate it. Im sure no one at bmw would say the n54 is rated for 700whp but it can certainly do it. i will upgrade the TCU software which I have already done and I’ll be getting SSP gaskets, filter and clutch pack. The gearbox is identical to the new M3 and M4 and can handle there power output.... anyway this build won’t be rushed will be done properly with no short cuts!!

Thank you for being positive and taking me seriously mate. I aim to beef up everything tbh, it will be done in stages, I have been taking the chassis into account driveshaft and diff. supposedly my trans will handle it, I have a 2009 DCT. i have a list of mods half of which I have. Currently I’ve looked at internals, twin turbo set up, fueling too! If anyone knows does the 335i have an LSD (and no for the smart arses not acid) thanks again

Thanks for the advice mate, I will gladly engage intelligent with him but he needs to stop being some what of an arse hole, and I thought it was just the poms (I am one) that we’re those haha! Anyway i am serious about this build so I’ll keep the ones that are genuinely interested in the loop.

In all honesty they weren’t stupid mind dumbing questions, I was merely after advice and pointers in the right direction due to tuning not being my strong point, and your we’re just being a patronising unhelpful arse hole. You do that and all the best. Some ppl here have helped but other forums have been so much more. It’s a shame, I thought forums are meant to bring people together who share the same passion, obviously not this one.

Fueling wise I’ll be getting the fuel it stage 4 LPFP and port injection. A lot of the Americans don’t seem to have issues

Taking it each step at a time, was thinking max 10-15k

If you’re not going to be helpful, f**k off. Tbh you come across as a middle aged prick, fed up of asking this forum for advice if some of you are going to be no help or give me pointless and unecessary advice.

I have a love affair buddy!! Plus I want to use what I got, if I were to buy I would want an M4 but this modding plus the value of my car wouldn’t amount to an M4

I don’t think your understanding what my goals are, to make it reliable to the point that wouldn’t happen, so everything forged!

Yes you should be good at guessing and if you can draw a fine landscape I expect a flowing river through the middle, with an elegant cascading waterfall to finish off the canvas, I prefer sun rise, so please incorporate that instead of sunset. And I also want a stunning picturesque reflection within the torrent of water flowing into a basin. Ive heard of zero code and drivability issues with them, my car is stock and running like clockwork already. My point is I have a spare engine to work on. So my focus in to do what I can to make it reliably powerful with no issues. thanks again

Not really if one has some common sense you could read between the lines regarding what I meant. I liaise with them a lot so they are my go to! All I will say is the Americans seems to have reliable high power!! Thanks for ppls help, but I guess it was the help I was after, e90posts it is.

The topic was set up in a rush and in a nutshell. the car will not be tracked it’s my daily. The reason the previous engine went was due to leaking injector leading to a scorched conrod. Autosure provided me with a replacement block and cylinder head, which is currently running stock in the car. i now have a spare block, cylinder head and flywheel. I would like to build on what I have strengthen and forge it so it can handle 600whp. I have no idea on what is needed and what’s has to be done to achieve this apart from forged rods and pistons, hence I asked on here. However half of you guys have been no help what so ever. i have bought many things to help stay on top of preventative maintenance, it’s not a car I just want to thrash, it’s a car I want to modify and obviously take care of in the process. So please can I have a little more help, rather than stupid links and pictures. Currently I take the car to bm workshop for service and all preventative maintenance work to be done! My goal is 600whp use is a daily driver Recommendations, advice and help would be much appreciated

Fair enough I just have a spare engine I want bullet proof Upto the region of 600whp

I have a spare engine I would like to make bullet proof

Please explain further what your implying thanks

Hi guys just a question to see who would be the best a making my engine bulletproof, so I have no issues! thanks in advance

Bm workshop grey Lynn have done all my work they are friendly and do a good job too!! Interested where you got the intercooler from due to Im wanting the same one for my 335i

Hi there I have a cobb accessport v3 for grabs brand new in box. $750 ONO

Looking at trade me would the google nexus 10 work with the MHD software and the OTG cables?

Hey guys what's the cheapest yet best android tablet to use for this. it will only be used for this one purpose and nothing else ?

Will the MHD become apple compatible?

Cobb seems to work all good with my 2009 335i have no issues what so ever. Will get s pro tune eventually and leave it at that!

Haha that's what I'll do!! Remember the N54 can give a lot more power plus its forged, well crank and rods are!!
