I'm glad you made this video, The s60 r has been on my radar, Same as those 335is. But a b5 and b6 S4s can make some power too. (450whp to 650+) on a stock block.
I have a S4... if you want to go german, go 335i... although unreliable, it will destroy S4s all day and night (remember, I own a S4 [no mods]), so I go by experience... I wish I had bought an 335 instead of my S4... HOWEVER... I take my S4 everywhere with michelin all season tires, on LIGHT snow or rain the S4 will eat the 335 with no sweats at all. Now, I dont recall accelerating against a 335iX (krep in mind I typed "X") on light rain, so I dont know about that. Best luck to you bro
@@erickvallad4189 that's a great point, I regret not buying a 335i too. Although if I'm correct, the 335xi doesn't come with a 6 speed, which I would have wanted AWD and a stick but even in rwd, those things will smoke most cars on the road. I'm an S4 owner too, What generation of S4 do you have?
I got a buddy with a 07 M5 with over 500hp stock I believe. I think he got it for less than 10k a few ago. Might be worth like 15k now because of how the prices have increased. The only downside on these is how heavy they are.
I just hit play but I'm sure (from the thumbnail) a 335/135 is on the list. Yup fairly easy and cheap to make 500whp with a 335. DP(s), E blend, and tune if you are risky $1500 shipping included lol. FMIC, upgraded fuel lines/E sensor, index 12 injectors and coils if you're smart, $4,000 if you cant get a deal on injectors. Single intake (N55) or DCI (N54) for sound. They say the N54 is more mod friendly and the N55 is more reliable but it's really down to the plastic parts on both engines. Well then theres the N54 stock turbos' wategate rattle but replace the plastic inlets and chargepipes and I think you're right there at 500whp mostly reliably. It's been a while since I've been in the N54/55 world but they are potent with even just a tune. Turbo upgrade and you're golden.
@@IdealMediaChannel that’s pretty much the formula. Best bang for buck by far, not even mentioning the love/hate E9X interior and options. You can get them RWD or AWD. Decent auto that’s tunable or manual. Couple, Sedan, convertible, wagon in some places. Then you can go 135/235 or F chassis and apply the same formula.
I’ve been looking at those too but I e heard they can be pricey to get parts but I want that or a 2010-14 c 63 Mercedes. But that e55 -2006 looks like a good deal l. What are your thoughts?
@@andrewstahura8051 I have a 2010 E63. These cars r so cheap because of the high maintenance costs. Just remember the person that bought the car new has already traded in the AMG they got to replace this one. The ones that can afford the car have mostly moved on. Also these cars hit 100k miles and die. At 90k my alternator and the radiator went. 100k is supposed to b the clutches and the camshafts. Who wants to replace clutch packs and camshafts every 100k miles? The Black Series low friction coating on the buckets is setting u back thousands of dollars just for the part. Stronger aftermarket clutch packs also insane prices. I’m at like 102k-103k miles and I’m trying to prepare for the 15k service I’m going to have to do any day now. That’s as much money as the engine out service every 4 years on my Ferrari
If you can find one you can build a sleeper truck from a 03-06 Chevy Silverado SS it all ready comes with a 6.0L LQ9 which is a slightly de-tuned LS plus it has 4wd that gives you plenty of traction
15 years ago, the list was including both used Nissan Skyline GT-R R34 and Toyota Supra RZ A80 "Skyline / Supra will can be tuned to 1000hp and eat Ferrari for breakfast, and it will be still cheaper than Ferrari" was common phrase when those fanbois argue now it's more than most people can afford, it's even much more expensive than Ferrari 360 and Lamborghini Gallardo from same era and year
Great video. I’m leasing a 2.0 accord right now but I wanna get something cheaper with a decent amount of owed when my lease is done. This video gave me some ideas.
Ik that accord get uglier and uglier everytime they drop one of these videos and its never on any of them nor the comments. Hey i got an 400 hp v10 honda accord w leather seats. Not never. Lol im sorry. Im a evil troll. 😈 Whew 😅😊❤😂
I had an Srt-4 back in the day. Had a S256 turbo best time 11.2 @ 127. Then it broke lol. Axels,transmission,knock sensors. 501hp489tq. My advice don't do slicks that will keep your car in the shop. Get drag radials and keep it at a roll. Just sayin.
Im a little older than u bru, but im ngl unless you can afford a daily and a project, you should only get a daily bc the maintenance with just having a cheap project especially at your age will make u regret it
I have a friend I graduated with back in 2021 who owns a S550 Mustang GT that's built and he also owns a Neon that's built with a turbo pushing 300 horses
Ok you missed one. The best bang for your buck by far is the foxbody Mustang. You can get them as cheap as 2500.00. 5k on mods gets that car in the low 12s on pump gas. I know, I've done it. Twice.
The Audi S8, a sedan with the Lamborghini Gallardos 5.2L V10 comes stock with 450hp, or the Audi A8 with a 6.0L W12 comes stock with 450hp is what I'd choose as a cheap car.
Here I am 6 months later after watching this -Bought 335i after 3 months of work -blew up 335i after building it cheaply Here I am with enough money again about to buy another one. Wish me luck
The N54 335i is amazing until you have one sitting in your garage needing an engine rebuilt lmao. I’ve owned one for a year now. EXTREMELY tunable. EXTREMELY picky and utterly painful to maintain if you don’t have the money to throw at it

You can do some of these as they go bad but these are common to fail in these engines and you need to be able to afford to replace these if u want an n54. it is just a part of basic BMW maintenance. I am tired to hear people saying the n54 is unreliable when most of the time people just can't afford to maintain it properly and then blame the engine.
Now THIS is a video I've been hoping to see. Since I'm super broke, this will help with some ideas for future go-fast projects.

Volvo s80 has the same engine as the apollo s
The Volvo sounds like a mini V10.
It's half a v10, so in theory if it's spinning twice as fast as a v10 it'll sound similar.
It's a five cylinder engine. They usually sound like V10s chopped in half.
Thanks for putting the fucking s60r on here there’s only like 8 in existence and they’re gonna be going for $15,000+ now. Just fucking great.

or to get a really fast car, buy a civic and get a k20 swap out the entire piston for forged ones and run a big turbo and that makes 400-500hp
I mean that isn't exactly easy but yes that would be a fun build.
Bro is roasting ppl every minute💀
Crowd killer
you can just get a 350z for like 5-8k get a turbo kit for like 3k and with a proper tune you get about 600hp
The w220 s600 will cost you 5k and they can make upwards of 600 hp with just a tune
which engine?

1500$$$ to get 500hp out of an n54 is BS! tbh it isnt.. BUT.. It will be unreliable if u don't maintain it well. If u want one then you should be ready to pay $5000 or more to make it reliable. I would not start tuning n54 before these all are checked:
Injectors - I would want to make sure all my injectors are index 12 since they are the latest ones and make sure they don't leak.
ignition coils - I would get new more powerful NGK "smart coils" from Audi R8 and mod them to fit n54.
spark plugs - 1 or 2 step colder spark plugs from NGK. 1 step colder for less than 500 crank hp and 2 step colder for more than 500 crank hp
water pump and thermostat - will fail at some point anyways. easy to change together.
main drive belt
seals and gaskets - you definitely don't want your car to leak oil when you're starting to modify it. replace oil pan gasket, valve cover gasket, oil filter housing gaskets and front and rear main seals. rear main seal is easy to change as you replace your clutch. front main seal should be done as you replace the main drive belt.
high pressure fuel pump
hoses
vacuum lines
vanos solenoids
boost solenoids
O2 sensors
walnut blast ports to clean them and oil catch can is good to add to help keep them clean
Turbos - you know your turbos are going bad when you hear the waste gates rattling. make sure to change your oil feed line o-rings as it is one place where this engine starts leaking too.
You can do some of these as they go bad but these are common to fail in these engines and you need to be able to afford to replace these if u want an n54. it is just a part of basic BMW maintenance. I am tired to hear people saying the n54 is unreliable when most of the time people just can't afford to maintain it properly and then blame the engine.
ALL power mods are unreliable if you don't do proper preventatives mods and maintenance.
