S54 E30 brotha!! Keep the E36 the way it is, just a beautiful, great sports car. We’ll all get used to our power eventually and never stop chasing higher numbers. This car is perfect as it is🤝🐐
@@ThicWhips i personally like your first idea It will cost more But the process of doing two engine swaps can bring us more content and pay itself off in the end I love that you are bringing down the previous generation motors into the old bodies E46 in a m3 wound be a absolute track weapon and i 100% agree that your favorite car should have the best engine S52 is unique, most people do m50 or s54 I think the e30 receiving the s52 is proper So go with your original idea! Please !!!! I can’t wait to see both projects
Question!! Now that you have a S54 engine, do you believe you’ll get the CSL style air box? I have an S54 and I was debating if I should get an intake like you have or just go big and get the CSl box
@@ThicWhips frick mannnn that is going to be a sick set up. I quickly learned with my e46 that I wasted a lot of money trying to find the best exhaust set up that I should of just left it stock with that air box. I’m in the process now of making that change.
That’s a solid number for a stockish engine….but you guys deleted all the parts that normally robs the engine of hp evap ect but that’s still really good brotha! There still some more room to squeeze out of these engines if you did cams

It’s perfect for the e36.
Im considering this!
That car needs to be in a rock band! What a nice exhaust tune it has. Amazing transformation...keep up the great content.
This is sick! Just made 270whp on my e36 m52 with a 3.0l bottom end and schrick cams, as well as the m50 manifold. Can’t wait for the s54 swap!
Get rid of the m50 manifold and get rabidracing itbs on that thing. Another 20 whp man
As much as I want you to put the S54 in the E36...why not just leave this excellent healthy motor in the E36 and pour all your effort into the E30?
Good idea
I’m considering this actually
@@ThicWhips rather than doing two swaps and all the work that goes into it…this will give you a quicker payoff with UA-cam views too
You could also go further with the S52 with headers. I just feel like it’s such a good setup already

Already ordered it 😁

NICK G is still the tuning gold standard on these engines.
Nice 👍🏽
Those are some solid numbers from your e36, tbh it got me a bit off guard lmao
I guessed 212…240 to the wheels…noice! Such a 🍒 whip. Can’t believe it’s going to get better than what it is now.
Turbo the E36 and S54 swap the e30. You will save the money for swaps to dial both cars in.
More merch soon? :)
Can’t wait to see the S54 in the e36, no need for 300+whp tho 😉
Which set of rod bearings did you end up going with for the S54?
Wpc
How do I GET A NICK G TUNE?!
Random thought, but does running a car on a dyno have an impact on your tire tread?
What’s the song playing in the beginning it’s fire lol
Could you put an s65 in my 128i?
I can’t believe Nick is still around well over a decade later
Are 21 pound injectors stock?
if you never found out yes 21.5 lb injectors are stock for 96-99 m3 s52s if I'm not mistaken
🔥🔥🔥
You should just leave the S52 in this car.
How much does the car weigh?
Chrome badge
i straight up guessed 241
My Guess Is 255🙂
Let’s say it will go 218
Time for an e46 bro👀, throw an s58 in it🫶🏽👏🏽👀😆
