I assume he’s using water/methanol injection setup for cooling and fueling also if he runs e85 it’s a lot easier to hit that 500 my setup is tuned on 91 pump gas with no methanol even a basic setup with meth keeps cylinder temps so much cooler and avoids the piston rings from touching so you can run more boost and more timing safer on e85 with methanol ill be adding meth to my setup but the kits expensive so It won’t be right away I’m going to see how much power I can make without it on 91 pump gas and this massive front mount intercooler and my ported headlight intake it keeps intake temps a lot cooler then taking air from the engine bay.
@@naird1064 yea buddy going for gold I’ve made 600whp but it wasent a reliable let’s go drifting and bang the limiter 600whp we had to dial it back to the 500whp range and at 14 psi it blew ring lands anyway so this setup is made to run higher boost gapped piston rings and lower compression pistons she should be able to really move 😜
Is there a way you can put it in the description that how many it should be gap and how many times we should spend the grinder also what tools to use so we can start gapping the piston ring and also where should we be at on the piston ring?
@@Elbmwenthusiast there’s no set spec for gapping rings u do it for how much boost you plan on running you only need one tool the piston ring grinding unit my buddy used in the video and we recommend doing 5 rotations then measure then another 5 it’s better to go slow because if you take to much material off there’s no going back. Both top rings get gapped and the oil ring at the bottom gets left alone I shot for 0.023 stock was 0.013 you could just go for that. How much boost do you plan on running with your setup?
@@rumrunnersracing OK I’ll go off base with the recommendation that you gave me cause I’m trying to aim for at least 19 psi if possibility, but you’re already doing all the things ahead of me what I’m doing because I’m already rebuilding my engine as well with the n52 that already has 150 K mileage I’m learning from you because halfway through I’m already buying all the parts to throw a turbo on it
Glad I could help pave the way but I would start lower boost and work your way up I would thrash it at 10-12psi work out the kinks of the build if there is any then work your way up. Also tuning is key when running high boost you will not be able to rely on any remote tunes or anything you get online you will want real time tuning or the motor will just blow the head off. That being said the one thing I didn’t address is how strong stock head studs are will they be able to handle 18-20psi I’m not sure 🤔 but to help the situation I will be adding water methanol injection to keep intake temps down that’s another crucial part of the setup hot intake temps and high boost will also blow the engine. What is your plan for tuning?
@@rumrunnersracing my plan was going to Stage FP for tuning for turbo. I also was looking into 22 RPD which I heard from both parties they are good but as you said, I think remote tuning is not as good for turbo because yeah you might end up blowing a head gasket so what I’m going to do is an ECU exchange or buy an AEM ECU for a piggyback just in case or just ship my car all the way out there lol but I heard stories about they’re tuning capabilities with turbo and superchargers and they are pretty good and as well as 22 RPD, but yeah as you said, let me start off low first start before I go high
@@Elbmwenthusiast nice man sounds sick also you will have to lock your valvetronic at whatever height you want to run because other standalones or piggyback ecus wont have the ability to control valvetronic that’s y my car made such good power my ecu is custom made by my tuner to use full valvetronic function with boost you man be able to snag one of the first ones my tuner is finalizing it over this winter before he makes a run of them. He’s just working on all the automatic functions because testing was all done on my car and i converted this car to manual almost immediately after I got it. My tuners website is www.popformance.com he’s a Tuning wizard and makes ecus and all sorts of stuff you could inquire about tuning and the standalone development thro his website his names Patrick tell him Matt with the e90 gave u the info 👍. Ide love to see progress pics do u have any Instagram or anything?
@@jeffthekiller6648 no Theyr piston rings this is how you open the gap on piston rings to be able to run more boost like a car that’s turbo from factory
@@jeffthekiller6648 nope the block is all stock still haven’t found the limitations on the block itself the main issue is these cars will break piston ring lands when you push it over 10psi due to such a tight ring gap from factory. The added heat from boosting over 7-10psi is enough to blow it especially how I drive the car 😆 Ill have to check with a magnet tonight in the spare block to see if it’s sleeved but I’m pretty sure it’s an aluminum sleeve in an magnesium block coated with anti friction coating
@@rumrunnersracing go check out one of the forum's on someone pushing 600 HP on the stock internals. Pretty sure the wristpin is a weak point on the rods as well.
@@jeffthekiller6648 yea I’ve made 600 I’ve just never blown a wrist pin it’s usually bottom of the piston chunks off also not many ppl gap the the rings for boost so the higher compression with boost would expand the rings they touch and blow the wrist pin my car had headlight intake and the biggest intercooler I could buy so my intake temps and fueling were perfect my issue was the compression ratios which in this build I brought down pretty significantly and running valvetronic will give me the added power no one else could get because my standalone was custom made to support valvetronic it’s something my tuner is developing it’s pretty sweet
Love this keep it up and your being transparent with your build 👍🏽 so thank you looking forward to the Dyno sheet and runs
Killing it broski!
Yo, after this build, we need to see Dino sheets because I saw one guy making 500+ with a supercharger set up
@@abiellewis7307 I have a dyno sheet where this setup made a bit over 600whp on a hub dyno but 💯 I’ll be posting numbers and dyno videos.
