E87 120d repower to 135d @ Hellbm

Recommended Posts

Take a nice NZ new N47 powered 120d and repower with M57D30TU.

Swirl flap delete along with DPF and EGR delete, Tune should be good for 700NM.

That’ll surprise a few people. Might be pretty heavy in the front though?

Weight is comparable to N52B30. Ali block unlike earlier M57`s.

Going to keep it as a 'plainclothes' SE version?

Yep. Even the 120d badge stays though definitely needs wheel/Tyre upgrade

I’ve got a 116d that could benefit from the same conversion...

I feel like a 114d badge and a single exhaust would be perfect for that...

You could feel E91 chassis flexing when my friend had the 700nm Torque Performance tune in her 335d 😮

XHP stage 1 atm with fresh trans fluid

These are very solid units. Vital with this type of power increase to keep the temps down. Aftermarket cooling system is on order for this one. Plan B is the spare we have in stock.

How many km on that M57 when it went in? Pretty impressive stock power from an old diesel...

90000km NZ new with a good service history.

Sent to tuners with swirlflap/DPF delete hence a good stock reading.

EPS retrofit. Installed and coded to the car. Has a great feel. 

Dif ratio change from factory 335d 2.81 to a 3.08 LSD.
