    very impressive that the B58 held out so long. there's a reason why people run PCV delete kits when they start pushing extreme powers. these engines truly are built different

      @@henrik1743 When you increase the power beyond stock levels the crankcase pressure is gonna be totally different and it’s best to have a pcv delete so it vents properly to the atmosphere. The b58 has a built in pcv system and it’s not really the best

    Hey Tyler, great seeing you provide your expertise and screen presence as well. Not a BMW guy but looking to start buying quite a bit of Porsche parts from them in the near future.

    A bit late to the party here. I'd like to have a new bottom end in mine at some point and have it running around 800bhp, but streetable. I wish most places would do builds in such a fast turn around. Last engine build i had done took 7 months. Another garage had my car for 10 months and that was just to replace the gearbox!!! Absolute piss take imo. And i didn't even get the price reduced for the inconvenience! I'd love to do my own build at home but I'm lacking in confidence.
    The engine build I had done last time was a Volvo 2.5 which was in my mk2 focus st. What an awesome sounding engine that was!

      This car uses a modified Doc Race intake manifold for an S54, with a custom flange for B58. For a direct replacement performance unit, look at the CSF intake manifold, it is a work of art!

      Yeah yeah, I know. IF you think about the honest reality of the situation. I was called in last minute to do this. We tore down and rebuilt this entire engine on camera in under 24 hours- definitely an uncommon request. I am not perfect- in fact the only one that is , was Jesus Christ himself. Sorry to disappoint!

    So much for the BMW B58 i6 being bullet-proof....HaHa. Not a good sign for the S58 in ///M cars. Another rod bearing issue because BMW decided to make a plastic valve cover with PVC valve built-in.
    I'll keep my BMW E9X M3 with the S65 V8 N/A with a different rod bearing issue. New BE bearings solved that potential issue. Fingers-crossed at 192k miles.

    • @BogotSR
      @BogotSR Рік тому +26

      Sorry, but from my perspective, this is not BMW's mistake. If you push twice more horsepower than stock, you have a different airflow in the crankcase, and the original PCV valve handles negative pressure from 0.6 bar of charge pressure. But not from 600 - 700 hp, and it is not surprising that the valve didn't handle this pressure.
      You have tons pcv valves delete kits on the market. I do not understand why They didn't use them.

      As you can see, a single turbo drift taxi redlining and pushing it to the limit on track outputting 700HP+ on stock eternals. Any non built engine would give. A built EJ engine wouldn’t last half as long as stock B58 pushing the same power.
