We miss you come back
This man helped me build my first N54 when he had less than 50k subs. BMW master Mech with zero tolerance for BS...I love you sir thank you for being alive
bro glazing
@@6mtcruiser I'm old enough that I'm hitting up urban dictionary on the regular and looked up glazing and genuinely had a lmao moment. Happened the other day in person where someone said "those are gas"
@@VehicularDIYI really want to see how long this setup lasts if it can last past 100,000 miles or if it’s a short term setup and the engine blows
@@gottgaame given he knows the correct way to setup and tune an engine, I'm gonna guess on the latter. That said, 500hp on 2.0 liters is crazy!
As long as you aren’t glazing your bore, it’s all good
no videos recently, hope everything is alright!
I have the EXACT same car, same options, same 2019, but in mineral gray and in the UK (so b48 vs b46). Please never stop making these videos. The g20 330i is hugely underrated.
I'm just amazed on your depth of knowledge of this motor. Never would've thought this powerplant was viable for major high output numbers but you demonstrated it can be a B58 alternative with no downsides.
well the downside is that it’ll cost more just to make the same power as a b58. and less overall potential. doesn’t sound as good. less reliable. but at least the days of the garbage n20 motors are gone, these new b48s are pretty stout
Yeah it can be an B58 alternative depending on your power goals. If you picked up a 2019 for under 25K and put 8K into it you're at 32K and making close to 500 WHP. You could pick up a 2020 M340i for closer to 40K and put 3K into it and make similar power but you'd have your power falling off near redline. Given the 330i is lighter and will hold power to redline with the upgraded turbo I could see a situation where the M340i can't compete on a stock turbo. Main thing for me is the balance of the 330i, handles great. If you were looking to spend 10K+ and go as fast as possible for under 50K total then it wouldn't be a B58 alternative but I'd imagine that 90% of people would be happy with a car that runs low 11s and maybe even high 10s with a good tire.
@@VehicularDIY 2.0l engine? I cannt believe it can produce so much!
@@VehicularDIYhi long term subscriber here. Just curious if all 330i have the b48 or are some b46? I know all the 4cyl turbos in europe are b48s but BMW including Mini revised the b48 to the B46 to meet EPA regulations. Can you please shed some light for us here in the US?
@@tomasis7 Yeah we can thank the Supra guys for pushing the 3.0 so far and BMW for using the same rod and piston and fueling system in the 2019 B48 4 cylinders. Along with the same transmission.
I have anxiety just hearing all those clips disconnect 😂 I have snapped em just by looking at them. These videos are so legit. You sir are a master in your craft. Thank you for providing for the b46/48 community. Doesn’t make me feel as bad not getting a b58 after knowing how much potential my 4cyl has 👍
This build is insane. I don’t have a 330 but it’s sick to see this platform being pushed.
Bro I can’t stress how much the world needs you for science keep pushing it
Thank you 🙏
This is CRAZY.
I love this series even more with each episode. This is soooo well thought, it is such a pleasure to finally watch someone who know what he's doing.
Next video, pleeeaaaasssee, some more driving vids and dragi times would be great
Great install can’t wait to see the results! 🙌🏻
My favourite car content creator by far just straight to the point and very informative no mincing of words or filler that'd drive me crazy. Almost as if im watching myself in a parallel universe make a video for me. And I don't even drive a BMW. Love from Australia habibi and love your work akhi keep at it.
Thank you for the video, I have been looking forward to this one. Looks good on the car!
Excellent video! Thank you taking the time to explain this in a technical, yet very clear manner.
Wow bad ass.
Worked on BMW back in the 80’s fresh out of high school. 30 years later I finally bought one.
Congrats!
hope it’s a g80 after 30 years 😭
your vids are getting better each year, looking forward to more in the new year!
Thanks!
I just bought an M140i finale edition. I absolutely love it. Just threw a downpipe in and stage 1, it was a rocket from factory and now it’s just scary. Can’t wait for an lsd and stage 2+.
Coming from a 335i it’s night and day
Thanks for sharing Musa. That's a great upgrade unit! Have a successful 2024 my friend. Dutch regards Nico.
Man your videos are just amazing! Thank you very much!
Happy new year! Congrats on 100k!
Happy New Year, Thanks!
We need you back
Coming soon... 😉
Could you creat kit lists for b48 packages so we can choose what level we can go for based on power and affordability etc?
Exactly...a tiered set up would be awesome based on budget! The intake manifold and heat exchanger would probably only help the reliability in the long run and give you a nice HP bump as well...
@@stephenarnold772well he’s left me hanging for 3 months now lol
Lovely video again 👌👍🏼💪🏼
You’re a legend bro ❤
Great to see development on these! I’ve got a 22 plate M135 and would love to develop it but you hear a lot of negativity with them but this is damn inspiring!
thank you for the step by step guide on how to remove/reinstall all the parts. it allows me to understand how hard/easy these modifications are.
I was waiting for this video!
I just subscribed. Amazing videos, Mousa your are a BMW Genius. Thank you 🙏
Wow, I had no idea the 330 had a water/air intercooler in the manifold. Your take reminds me of Gale Banks' take on charge air density. Genius.
Yeah it's really neat that they started offering it from the factory on LCI F series and G series cars.
Love your content bro makes me wanna upgrade my 330i 😂
Do itttt
You’re the reason why people can’t talk sh!t about newer BMW 4banger. I have so much respect for you, and gave me so much confidence on building my B46TU. What a legend 🫡
This is so cool! I did not know my little brother engine had some potential like this!
This is legendary cheers
I was looking for a b58 car but these have a massive premium price in my country, like $15 to $20k extra. They also made up less tha 5% sales. So theyre expensive and hard to find.
This guy helped me realise I can exceed my performance goals with a b48 and I was able to easily find a 530i in the exact spec I wanted.
Also, FYI 530i is same kerb weight as 430i.
MG Flasher is first step.
These videos are so well done, i formative, and really exciting if you own a B58! Can we please get an update on your next video release? My son and I are chomping at the bit!! 🙂 Thanks so much for the great content!
Where’d you go?
Just actually set and thought about being so confused if i got gapped by a 330 in my 340 but now you are getting into the rage of beating up on the b58 guys. Super excited for the build
Awesome! Would be really interesting to see how the car pulls at all speeds and all gears both before and after each upgrade if you happen to have it. 🎉
This videos are great, I really like watching how the series 3 is getting faster and reliability. Is the perfect bmw sleeper
Bro we need more updates 🥲🥲
Good job bro🎉👍
You will be the reason I mod my bmw 430i 2019
thank you i been looking for a manifold upgrade
Excuse my ignorance but what does the manifold upgrade do?
@@rossharley9016did u find out
A true master. I’m having some difficulty keeping up with the speed of the whole installation process, to be honest 😅
Where you been bro??? We need more vids!! How’s the 330 holding up
This man makes you feel confident and helped me modify my n54 to 600+whp by watching his videos. I no longer have it but straight to the point very informative videos! Thank you sir
600+ whp? That’s insane is it a reliable hp? And what mods
@@fizzp1123 dynamic autowerx hybrid turbos, helix overdrive hpfp, fuel it stage 2 lpfp, ARM charge pipe with tail bov, ARM catless downpipes, VRSF exhaust, BMW fmic, HXP trans flash, and custom tuned by JSRTuning on E60
@@fizzp1123 I pushed the car hard and raced it many many times it didn’t fail until a faulty fuel filter leaned out the motor
"small displacement engine can achieve legendary status" ...hahaha definitely has to be the BMW quote of the year so far!
Interested to see the gains. Would have liked to see if you had any gains with the stock mani and aftermarket heat exchanger
Shit there be times when i forget shit and i come to this channel for a quick reminder bro been putting out bangers since forever got a sub here for life
Hey man, this is some awesome stuff. I wonder if the same setup could be added to a mini cooper S ? I mean a 400whp mini would be insane.
The manifold upgrade should definitely take priority over the turbo upgrade just because of how it not only makes the car faster but also help preserve engine longevity. The turbo upgrade alone will easily heat soak the engine and shorten the lifespan. Turbo upgrade alone is good for a daily but you can’t do any serious track work. I’m definitely going for the manifold first as soon as I’m out of warranty.
Can you expect gain more hp through changing only the intake manifold?
@@deutsch323yep, cooler intake temps = more power. And it will be a consistent boost in power. If you heat soak an engine it will pull timing and lower your power to protect the engine. This modification should definitely take priority before the turbo upgrade.
Well, bigger turbos running less boost pressure to achieve the same flow of mass of air will actually help to keep the engine run cooler too. Either way, you need to upgrade both to keep the engine as cool and the least stressed as possible.
With the stock turbo and upgraded intake+intercooler, you’ll still be running high PSI and overworking the turbo to get the maximum power, and likewise with the stock intake+intercooler (but upgraded turbo), there would still be a build of pressure and heat in the intake once you start to push it.
Personally, i think if you’re not in a rush for big power, the intake+intercooler is the best first step because it means you can happily choose a turbo later knowing that it’s not going to have any restrictions on the intake side of things.
However, if you’re just trying to get to 400whp+ as quickly as possible, a bigger turbo will be able to do the trick relatively easily without actually increasing the stress on the engine that much because it flows much easier/better and causes less back-pressure on the exhaust/hot side of things.
Hope everything is good, I see you havent been posting for months
We need new updates!! How is the car running?
Really interested to see where u go with this build
this guy is honestly a mechanical mastermind, the stats and science you have behind every thing you change on the car is outstanding. kudos
His car is toast! It blew up!
Can confirm: this is 100% false...
Great video. What figures can be achieved on a 330i with a hybrid turbo, downpipe and intercooler?
did the b48 come at all in the 4 series of this generation? Also curious if there’s still a gran coupe for the newer models but i believe they phased them out. Cheers, keep smashing it 🙌🏽
When is the next video coming out. Trying to follow along with my g20 as well
Amazing stuff! Everything you have done to this vehicle would I be able to perform on a 2017 230i?
Any issues with the new manifold? Looking forward to another video soon hopefully!
B48 Whp goal post has been moved a few more yards. New record is 650whp 525tq on a revised conservative tune on a built engine ( Trinidad and Tobago F30 330e ).I think the guys in the Middle East (white car) can make 780whp safely. They have way more mods done to their build like a totally built out B58. I believe the balance shafts may become a problem unlocking more power beyond 800whp safely. Lets say the balance shafts are a non issue, is anyone looking at the potential of reving this engine even higher to 9000rpm on a bigger turbo 68mm with a properly ported head and hardware ?
thats insane how the bmw has it its own service procedure. my audi so lame, i ran thermostat wide open and hoped for the best
I hope all is well with you. Hope to see another video on this car soon! Any issues since the install and pushing more power on the car?
From my experience with BMW engines, they respond really well to intakes, downpipe and a tune to factor the changes. For less than $1000 you can make an easy 50+ HP from any turbo BMW engine.
PLEASE POST MORE VIDEOSSSSSSSSSS! UPDATE ON 330I PLEZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ.
So glad I came across this channel! Loving the content!
Curious from a cost perspective, how does the 330 with the mods compare to a 340?
Cheers from SA
Id love to know as well
So lets imagine someone does this for the 2021 Mini GP. That will be an entirely different beast
Really interesting in getting my first BMW just so unsure on F30 or G20🤔
This is awesome, I wish I still had my mini. With it being the same rods and pistons as a B58 I guess you’re capped out to about 2/3 what a b58 can make on a stock bottom end ?
Great explanation on this. I have a b48 and my big b58 engine. Would the same logic apply to the b58 with the intercooler? I am running a bigger turbo.
Any updates on the reliability of the car after these upgrades ?
It's time to get a new BMW
This all looks so easy compared to how hard it will be to talk my wife into letting me do all this. X)
Ty for such great content.
when do we get the new dyno results? :)
Any update on the wheel hp on 91 octane?
Why dont you show us rolling 10 to 100 kph time, how the car power slides and drifts with this new BHP
I plan to make a full review video with 1/4 mile times etc.
I just subscribed to you channel because the quality of the information is on another lever. I highly appreciate your effort!
I own a 125i F21 B48 and I am very curious if IM450 would be a nice idea to push it to 400-410hp. If so, besides turbo and b58 hpfp, I would need anything else?
Also, do you feel like you need an LSD on your actual 500+ setup?
Thank you in advance.
LSD are great on even just stock powered cars.
whatd you end up doing with the pipe that didnt have a hole to insert it. I think u said to contact the tuner about vent to atmosphere but i was unsure of what u mean. what should i do with that if im looking to get this upgrade
I’m just leaning about the 330i/b48. Would you recommend the manifold upgrade over the front heat exchanger upgrade?
i have a F30 330i. B46B20 engine in it (SULEV, Canadian car) im assuming the engine code of yours is B48B20. if correct, does the B46 hold the same capability of the B48? if not, where is it different, and what needs done?
how do you feel about the two series? I've been dreaming of owning an M240i but may even consider a b48 230i just from what I've seen you do
Anymore updates coming? Any tricks,tunes,hacks, etc… for us who can’t afford this huge magnificent upgrade? Besides a JB+ ? You’re the
•B48 MasterMind• I’m running a JB+ & Throttle tuner & I’ve surprised many on the highways.
I have a 2018 330ix.. believe it’s a Gen 1? I have few important questions for you is there a direct contact? I hit a wall in build and need some friendly advice
Will all of this work on a 2017 230i? What differences exist between 2017 and 2024 with the B48? This is amazing.
Can't decide if 330i or M240I would be the best, these videos really show how B48 can be a fun engine.
If you like the 2 series you could mix in the 230i and get all the same results I'm getting on my 330i with the same mods. I've had a gen 1 B58 in my 440xi, gen 2 in a M340i, N54, N55 in a X5 and a S58 in a G80 M3. Out of all them I'm finding this to be the most fun as it has a Jekyll & Hyde personality, feels so subdued and easy to drive in comfort mode and hits really hard in sport +. The N54 with upgraded twins is a close 2nd, the only reason it isn't first as it always felt like it could just barely tolerate what is being asked of it before the DME would jump in and freak out. This feels like it wants more.
@@VehicularDIYWhen referring to the 230i are you talking about the F22 or the G42? I have an interest on the F22 230i as their prices are becoming more reasonable.
Hey buddy, what downpipe do you recommend? Thanks
Hey mate. I just got my 330i. I want my car to be an absolute savage like yours is. Im not mechanically minded but want to buy everything i need to make it a beast. Ill have my mechanic fit it for me.
What exactly would you recommend i get so i dont have to redo anything. I want it the best, first time round.
Cheers mate
Ps. Thanks for all the great content, youre a legend 👏🏽
Is there mechanical difference between this G20 B48 and the G30 B48?
Wondering can you do this to a 530
What oil do you use for your b48? I was thinking liquid moly 5-30
Can this fit on the mini b48!
You make this all look so easy. Are you a bmw tech? There's no way you are a novice diy tuner
It's always been something I do on the side. When I was a teenager I worked at a shop for a couple years before starting college so that helped me get the basics down to be good at tinkering on the side.
can confidently say your videos are going to greatly help me push my g20 330i to its full potential, glad to be a part of the community 🦾
How reliable are b48 in general? Is there any common issues and if there are when do they appear and how much do they typically cost?
I'm glad you may give me a solution for my wife 330i xdrive 2017. She hates the lack of power and anoint noise from the engine. She call it the German camry. The car has 65,000 miles. Where I can get this intake and how much? Thanks 👍 😊 🫂 🙏
Which package gets you the diff? Is it the Msport package?
is this the exact same engine on the 2016-present G30/G31 530i? air to water cooling as well?
Any New updates?
So before you did this video, you were already at 480 hp what would I have to do to get to 480 besides swapping out the turboS
