Happy you decided to keep it! Would die for the 4N kit, would have done it if it was available when I built my N55. Good luck, can’t wait to watch it all unfold
Glad you are still here brother. Despite the misinformation, the N55 is a great motor. And as a pneumatic wastegate E series N55 owner, I can fully appreciate the saying, “ I like doing things the hard way” lol. Looking forward to updates and best of luck.
Hell ya man! Excited to hear the news. You inspired me to take my n55 f30 to the next level when I saw what you made possible with yours. Pure turbo, upgraded fueling. Good info on the sleeves and the cast crank. Thank you!
Sorry to hear buddy, for many it would be the end of BMWs. Keep doing what you’re doing. So long as you have the passion and some funding would help 😊. 👊🏽
Hey glad you are enjoying the channel and I appreciate the kind words. Just trying to provide hard data for a platform that seemed to be overlooked but glad Im able to provide some good info for everyone. 🤘🏻
Damn, Darton Sleeves incoming … Respect for staying with the F10, I miss mine after it was crashed into, but stayed with the 5 series as I was not done, so now in a G30 540.
Still debating on how far i want to take my n55 you're def an inspiration 💪🏾 been here since you created the behind the grill cai which i still need to purchase 🤦🏾♂️
Hell yeah man a lot of these new bmw jits with b58 just can go fast but have no clue about real driving. A de stroker n55 will be one of the best driving experiences you’ll have with a 9k redline. How an engine makes and delivers power is everything. B58 have essentially the same bore to stroke of a 6.7 Cummins diesel. .863 vs .868. A n55 is .937 which is much closer to 1 where it should be for a boosted motor perfectly square. But that’s why the RB26 is so amazing it’s over square and revs to 8-9k. It’s gonna a dope ass build you’re doing
So happy you kept the F10, was genuinely upset when I saw it had blown up. Cant wait to see how the build goes, make some videos on the process of cutting up the car and stuff, would be cool to know all about it!
Thanks for the content this inspires me to keep my 2014 n55. Because everything on UA-cam just makes me feel like I need a b58. If I can get my n55 to 550 mostly reliably I’ll be happy and it seems plausible.
Glad you’re sticking with the platform, definitely possible I made 525whp on the pure stage 2 with stock internals and it was very reliable. With stock transmission.
Brother you’re lying to yourself, I felt that way about 400ish coming from a Corolla to a f32 435i. Within a few months and a lost race that I had no buisness lining up with (built Chevy ss vs a stage 2+ n55 on an 8th mile track) I was looking at my 401k thinking I could borrow a few dollars lmao.
@@martypino5258brother Ive built 7 sec drag cars and am very capable of making this happen but I guess Ill just have to prove it to everyone. Ive already made some changes to my plans that will shock everyone but due to power and weight its what I have to do.
@ oh no didn’t mean it like that, you 100% have the receipts on your yt. I’ve been watching for your for a bit and you inspired me start my build on my f32 rather than waiting and trading into an m4. I was talking being happy and content with 550 whp, it just seems like every time I get a bump in power on any car I’ve owned it takes a few weeks before I start parts shopping and going on forums again lol.
This build is going to be INSANE!!! Cant wait to follow along. Also, I am just like you..."Why not get a B58, S58...blah blah blah"...I hate doing the same thing as everyone else too. Its just not cool to me haha..
Let’s go ! This is crazy didn’t know that was possible to use an s55 block instead of n55 would you be running a standalone or just blocking it off and using stock pumps. Wish you the best and to crush those records
S55 just has a different vacuum pump but the N55 one still bolts up to it so will still be using the Dorch N55 49% lift kit with the N55 single HPFP kit.
Ask 4n what do they think about using solid lash adjusters for the valve train instead of hydraulic lash adjusters that possibly can squish or even worse can balloon at high rpm and hang the valves slightly open. You would not even risk having these problems with solid lash adjusters and some really good valve springs
Most other manufactured motors would make a hole in the block. This is extremely impressive. I have a speed tech n54 car. Wife's car is a fbo f15 x5 n55 sdrive. Gives me good confidence putting a speedtech kit on my wife's car😂
@Inhouseperformance the N55 block and cylinder liners are pretty strong but the epoxy can't fix the weakness between the the siamesed block. The other issue is that you developed a hot spot where there isn't coolant. Did you have any knock or pinging at high boost? Had you kept the stock head bolts, your liners would have been fine and you'd have lifted the head instead. I'm assuming the head will lift way sooner than cracking the liners at much lower boost pressures. The N57 diesel blocks are closed deck design and can handle massive amounts of cylinder pressures. Unfortunately, the N55 was designed to use regular gas and needed to have an open deck design for cooling. Best bet is S55 block. I'm glad you are staying true to the N55 and using as many of the N55 parts as possible m
@@brarautorepairswell one I already lifted the head with the pure750 so I needed to go to head studs no matter what cause after 32 psi you are very likely to lift the head. Secondly I didnt use inserts when installing the head studs. Jeff at CSS walked me through his procedure on how to install the head studs without insert as inserts create a weak point and cause cracking that you speak of. The only cracking I experienced was in between the cylinders where the structural integrity of where the head studs are would not have been affected.
CSS guarantees their block, without sleeves, to 900hp. I have a T0 block from an M2, with the ductile liners, and their closed deck, with arp hardware so, No worries. (Hopefully) The cast bottom end needs proper proper tuning and it will survive high numbers, you just cannot hammer on it. High transient changes in RPMs will twist those parts. Twins are not as efficient... But it will be cool. I thought about doing that, did a single G30-900 instead. Seems legit 8" rear end swap. Ftw! As far as I'm concerned, the 4N RB destroked kit, with an equal length manifold is the best sounding setup in BMW aftermarket. It's the only major thing I wish I had done in my build. God bless your path forward on this. I wish I had filmed more of the work I've done on my 335i engine. I'll be posting a compilation video eventually.
@Alfonso-mh1np they're not a modified part. The N55B30T0 from an M2 or X4 have iron liners, no plasma coating. The N55b30M0 in the 3/5 series does not have the liners and uses the plasma coating. It's also got the S55 bottom end, and the M2 version gets the oiling system/sump. Also, as far as I know CSS machines their own sleeves when you request them.
Love what you do but serious question: Why not move to a better platform that can hold 1k rwhp with much more ease? If you sank the money into a 5.0 or 2JZ or another platform you’d be better off don’t you think? Not trying to tell you what to do but I’m genuinely curious why you don’t change platforms and keep the F10 as a daily
Will you possibly be taking it as far as a solid rear axle setup or back halfing the car. Or make lightweight front and rear k members out of cromoly to get rid of the big bulky k members
For sake of conversation, are you insinuating that close decking the factory open deck caused the failure between the bores? It sure doesn't look like there is a lot of material between the bores themselves. Id assume that that's where most people see failures at on that engine at this power level, not necessarily the top or bottom of the cylinders where the epoxy reinforcement was done. Maybe you could make a case saying that with the rest of the cylinder liner reinforced, that there was no place for the engine to flex and it cracked at the weakest point?
No Im insinuating that doing the epoxy wasn’t sufficient enough as the areas between the cylinders are the areas that will crack. And with the areas around the cylinders supported and not in the most critical areas this will happen. If a proper closer deck with press in material is done and the areas between the cylinders are filled and the block is decked there will be a better chance at success. My personal opinion is the best outcome will be to resleeve the block. But the top of the cylinder bore will be the area more likely to crack as this is where most of the pressure will be created during the combustion cycle where the piston is traveling towards the cylinder head.
@@Inhouseperformance That makes sense. Its intersting that the spots between the cylinders arent solid and that there is some sort of gap. Im sure the engineers never thought someone was going to make that amount of power out if that engine. Would you have to run a smaller diameter piston to get press in sleeves with a thicker cylinder liner?
Are you going to do a ford custom 9 inch diff conversion for the rear? Have yet to see it done on the 5 series but have seen it on all the other 3 and 2 series builds
You can turn off the check engine light with coding through the tune or by the tuner but it wont past emissions. My car is registered at families vacation home that doesnt require emissions.
Im going to stick with the N55 head and full DI as I have a sponsorship with Dorch Engineering. Dont need port injection for these motors. My last setup was DI only and Instill had 40% head room at the power level I was at on E50.
Do you think that closing off those gaps in the upper cylinders would help? I’m shooting for a similar goal, and my block has been sealed up in those sections.
Yeah that is an option but theres a bunch of S55s making north of 1000whp with stock sleeves and with the stock sleeves I can run a stock head gasket. Which the combination has proven to make 1200whp without needing a firing ring head gasket and all the Bs you deal with with the B58s
Are you still going to use the factory ecu or are you going with syvecs or max ecu standalone with an additional standalone controller for the transmission and using a tap shifter to shift up and down
Based on my very minimal digging and conversations I believe they do. If you look the cometic multilayer head gasket says N55/S55 so all the ports are the same, the bores are the same. As far as I know the N55 and S55 have almost identical cylinder heads and the S55 just uses different materials for the valves and other mechanical components.
Eliminate the ac condenser and Run a custom half width size radiator but thicker. So you can mount the turbo right on the left kidney grill look thru the kidney and see the turbo impeller like alot of dedicated drag cars would be the first and only one in the world
Its not easy to get the epoxy between the cylinder and make sure the surface is clean and flat so I didnt have head gasket issues. Its possible to do but not sure how much it would have helped
Man, just a quick tip. Please check audio level between different videos. I scared the s h it out of me when the intro came out. Thanks for the all n55 content, keep pushing it!😊
Yes that is correct but I dont need to run the S55 oil pick up and baffle system as the N55 pick up will work just fine and the AWD oil pan will act as a natural baffle system.
I think that going the S55 block route is going to upset the purists and you'll be catching all kinds of flak about any records not being valid due to it not being a true N55. Also, do you plan to cut the ass end out of the car and do a tubular rear end as well to help get the weight down?
Bro, keep the chassis lighting it up like you said. Do where it needs to be done. Go carve out a record for that platform. That car is just like a female. Just a challenge lol
I’m guessing you already know but you’re gonna want to have that s55 oil pan and pick up, or at least MMR oil baffle. Otherwise your going to have oil starvation

Yes, at that point I dont care about micro records Im way past that. Yes Im cutting out a bunch including the trunk
43psi dang aluminum blocks def cant handle it
The block can handle it, the sleeve can not! 😂
Bro, keep the chassis lighting it up like you said. Do where it needs to be done. Go carve out a record for that platform. That car is just like a female. Just a challenge lol
Hahahaha Im going to do my best!! Im gonna build my version or the Mona Lisa 😂😂
2JZ swap 😉!
😂😂 RB if anything crazy
I’m guessing you already know but you’re gonna want to have that s55 oil pan and pick up, or at least MMR oil baffle. Otherwise your going to have oil starvation
I was able to prevent oil starvation issues by running my car with 1 quart extra. But I will likely run the S55 oil pump upgrade with a baffle.
if you still have mixed feelings abt the F10 come over to f22 ;)
wtf do you do afford all this
also curious lol
Ive worked my way up over the years and currently Im validations operations manager for an automotive company. Ive been very blessed to be able to make the money to afford to do the things I love to do!
