Dunno if it's worth mentioning, but these are just off the shelf GM LT1 (stage1) and LT4 (stage2) pumps. Lingenfelter makes a big bore (+~10% flow over the LT4) version of this pump that should be straight drop-in for either of these kits once you move the lash cap over and rotate the connector. Basically any upgrade made for the GM LTx motors should be direct fit here with Dorch's adapter plate, lash cap, and plumbing, which is pretty cool.
I believe Kevin mentioned this in a previous video explaining why there will probably not be any upgrades for the B58 TU HPFP, as there are no other cars on the market that support >5000 psi currently.
One of these companies could probably talk to Stanadyne (the company that designs/makes these pumps) and see if there are any options for higher pressure relief valves. They primarily do diesel pumps, so they're definitely familiar with higher pressure applications, and they state that their pumps are configurable, though there are probably some MOQ hurdles for aftermarket communities there...
Thank you so much for this information... I've been searching like crazy for this info about stock Tü and aftermarket hpfp.. thank you again for sharing this video with us.
You just helped me answer my question on buying an HPFP. My B58TU handles more than I thought given I will keep the stock turbo. My stage 2 with a catted downpipe, updated air intake, amd MHD should be ok. Now I have to think about the intercooler...
Man you are everywhere… I was in the forums yesterday and you popped up, then less than a day later I’m poking around on UA-cam and you’re the first video that pops up… you’re the BMW guru that’s crazy.

I just want to set it and forget it. Once I’m done I’m done, I don’t want to tinker, I want to have it installed, get it tuned and that be it. I’d like to be around 550hp on 93. I’m okay with adding a fuel pump, a down pipe, and a tune. What is the best option for me? Which is the least fuss and most reliable/OEM feeling of the bunch? Pure 800/850? I would go top mount if that was the best route, money isn’t really the limiting factor, it’s more so I want to remain more stock than not stock. If you say top mount with DP and fuel pump best suits my needs, that’s okay. If you could recommend the FP and DP and tune to go along with it that would be great as well. Thanks Guru!
Thank you so much for this video. I watched it a while back but am still learning. I came back today and watched it again and know everything you are talking about. I have a 540 and I'll buy the TU pump. I'm not upgrading my turbo and am fine w/ no more than 550hp, but will go w/ a tune, High flow down pipe, high flow intake and this TU pump.... we'll see what that gives me. I'll also buy new Coil packs and new plugs. If anyone here has some recommendations/lessons learned... I'd really - really, appreciate your input.
According to several websites, the TU pump should support up to 575 - 600 HP on the crank. I'm currently running stage 2+ with the TU pump, and planning to go for a hybrid turbo at around 550 hp crank (RON 98 fuel only). The TU pump should be sufficient for this power goal? The given max power numbers for TU seem a bit optimistic.
I had to postpone the turbo upgrade due to a leaking rear differential (too many launches wasted the seal). Going to replace the rear diff by a OS Giken LSD first. But I got X-Drive, getting the RWD diff installed but need some modifications in order to get it fitted properly. Hoping to get the turbo upgrade done mid 2024.
Hey kern, this video is old but just want to know I have the dorch stage 1 hpfp and want to go flowmax tubo 2.5v+ . Would the dorch stage 1 support a e50 blend or do I need to upgrade? Or which blend would be best with the upgraded turbo
Just a heads up. I emailed Dorch about just swapping the HPFP alone and keeping the stage 1 lines and rail (when changing to a stage 2 HPFP) they said I should change all the lines and rails.
Hey man what turbo and hpfp you recommend for a 2018 x3 m40i. I have bootmod3, downpipe and chargepipe. Got crappy gas out here. 91oct pretty much all there is
Hi, I want to get hybrid turbo and get 600crank on 99 ron fuel. I have supra, so allready tu pump but is it enough for this power? What about single turbo and power like 700 crank on pump fuel 99 ron? I don’t want to run E blend as I don’t have where to store it in Europe and we don’t have ethanol at the peteol station. Thanks a lot
Thanks for another informative video, I had a question that maybe you'll have some insight on. I only have 92Oct local to me so I run MHD STG2 on the 91 tune but was curious to run the 93 tune, is it close enough to run no problem? would throwing octane booster in every tank make it safe? Or is the tune so potentially similar it doesn't matter? Thanks ahead if you have any insight!
Do not ever run a tune that is designed for a higher octane that is in the fuel tank. That risks catastrophic damage to your expensive engine. Plus there is no upside to doing so. There is very little gain to be had from going from a 91 tune to a 93 tune. Whatever small gain to be had depends on the 93 fuel in the tank to be high quality. A 91 tune with high quality 91 or 92 octane in the tank with run smoother and feel more powerful than a 93 tune with weak/poor 93 octane that is forced to do excessive timing adjustments to protect the engine from poor quality fuel. Hope this helps!
@kern417 if running stock turbo b58 with stg2+ tune from MG flasher E40 map is there any power benefit from running dorch2 instead of TU pump? Dorch2 makes more flow so power will be bigger with dorch2 or will be the same as with tu pump on E40 stg2+ map ?

Cheers, appreciate your continued help. J
Besides price, is there any reason to go with dorch stage 1 vs stage 2? Like fuel economy? I plan on eventually going bigger turbo but not for a while, would I benefit from sticking with stage 1 for now until going bigger turbo and then go with stage 2?

Does your car have upgraded suspension? My car has been feeling weird lately but i have no idea what it is its riding rough even in comfort mode and i can hear every little bump in the road.. kinda annoying
How many miles on your car? Might be time for new bushings. You may have a broken one as your symptom experienced is typically old or broken bushings in your suspension.
Hey Kern, I'm sorry if this is a dumb question. If we were to run a TU pump on our cars would we need a custom tune to run 91 octane, or could we simply use the Stage 2 91 OTS bm3 tune? There isn't a selection for the TU pump in the tune config, only Dorch and Spool. I'm asking because where I'm at ethanol is hard to come by, but I'm moving somewhere where it is more common. I figure I'd install it and run it on 91 and then switch to an E30 tune, but there is no OTS Stage 2+ 91 octane tune. Thanks!!!
So i have gen 1 its a 2019 540xi but its gen 1 pump so if i upgrade to dorch stage 2 do i need to upgrade anything else like injectors? Amd what turbo should i upgrade to? Im stage 2 MHD ots and catless plus intake and charge pipe
Hey Kern ik this videos old but I was looking into getting the mhd flex fuel kit but since I live in cali we’re limited to 91, would I see any gains by getting the tu pump over stock if i’m only gonna be running 91 most of the time with e30 used on weekends?
I’m assuming that while on 91 there would be no difference but when i’m running e30 there would be, just want to make sure it’s not a waste of money to buy a tu pump
@@kern417 Sounds good thank you for your help, ill likely stick with the stock fuel pump since there isn’t a stage 2+ 91 tune. Is there any risks involved or maintenance I should do before running an e30 tune on stock hpfp if i got a flex fuel kit, i’m at 63k miles and don’t wanna mess anything up.
Is it risky for the cam to run aftermarket pumps on a gen 1 b58? I have a downpipe and tune and i just want to prevent any catastrophic failures. I also like to run a bm3 standard 91 octane tune to make about 400 whp
I’d say if you were worried about it to just replace the cam follower when you upgrade the fuel pump. I replaced my follower and gasket when I installed mine just for a piece of mind. The old follower had almost 50k miles on it and still looked pretty good.
I do not plan on going big turbo I’m just wanna run the stage 2+ tune from bootmod3 should I by the tu bump or the dorch stage 1 I have Hurd story’s in forums of the tu pump eating the cam or blowing a injector have you hurd if any of theses issues and what would you recommend
if i have mhd stage 2, catless b58, 93 pump gas, should i get a tu? i might get an upgraded turbo in the future. what kind of difference would it make with/without an upgraded turbo?
yeah i'll for sure buy the stage 2+ tune for mhd, but do you think its worth it to go TU? maybe if i eventually buy a turbo upgrade i'll go dorch, but for now is TU a worthwhile upgrade?@@kern417
@@kern417 yeah i just plan to run stage 2 not stage 2+ i was debating if i should do a tu or stage 1 dorch or if it even makes sense to get one at all since i’m just staying at stage 2
I went for an mhd 93 stage 2 tune and my stock pump couldn’t handle the power so I upgraded the pump for tu pump and much better 440i owner Try to go for stage 2 then do the logs if all goods then no need for an upgraded pump
Based on your b58 tuning guide video, ive decided to go stick with a stage 2+\2.5 on my 2018 440i. If im looking to tune with MHD and run a VRSF catless downpipe, would i even need the dorch stage 1? Or could i get away with the TU?
@@kern417 Yes, but I have realized that the TU MUMP gives me the same miles WHEN I SET THE MAP E30 AND WHEN I SET THE E50. It seems to me that the TU PUMP does not have power at E50
On stock turbo, what’s the max I would need for stage 2+ tune on 91 octane? Catless+intake. I’m thinking TU would be plenty to max out the stock turbo?

@@kern417 was it rough when you were on stock suspension?
Nope
How many miles on your car? Might be time for new bushings. You may have a broken one as your symptom experienced is typically old or broken bushings in your suspension.
Add: Take your car in for an alignment and have them inspect.
Later we can expect Dorch Stage 2 fuel pump for B58 second generation (Supra)? thanks!
probably not any time soon
@@kern417 thanks!
Hey Kern, I'm sorry if this is a dumb question. If we were to run a TU pump on our cars would we need a custom tune to run 91 octane, or could we simply use the Stage 2 91 OTS bm3 tune? There isn't a selection for the TU pump in the tune config, only Dorch and Spool. I'm asking because where I'm at ethanol is hard to come by, but I'm moving somewhere where it is more common. I figure I'd install it and run it on 91 and then switch to an E30 tune, but there is no OTS Stage 2+ 91 octane tune. Thanks!!!
TU pump works just like the stock pump so no custom settings are needed.
@@kern417 thanks kern!!
So i have gen 1 its a 2019 540xi but its gen 1 pump so if i upgrade to dorch stage 2 do i need to upgrade anything else like injectors? Amd what turbo should i upgrade to? Im stage 2 MHD ots and catless plus intake and charge pipe
You don't need to upgrade anything other than the fuel pump itself. There are a lot of good turbo options so it more depends on your budget and goals.
What’s the max E blend I can run with the flex fuel kit from BM3 on the stock Gen 1 pump?
would I benefit at all from running a TU pump if I am only intake+jb4 (map3)? I get the occasional lean fuel code
You can add more boost/ethanol with a TU pump but i believe you need a backend flash to take advantage of it
Can you use the TU pump without ethanol ? Just on stock turbo stage 2 93 octane?
Yes
Hey Kern ik this videos old but I was looking into getting the mhd flex fuel kit but since I live in cali we’re limited to 91, would I see any gains by getting the tu pump over stock if i’m only gonna be running 91 most of the time with e30 used on weekends?
I’m assuming that while on 91 there would be no difference but when i’m running e30 there would be, just want to make sure it’s not a waste of money to buy a tu pump
yes that's right. not much gains on 91 but noticeable gains on e30. however mhd doesn't have a 91 stage 2 hpfp tune.
@@kern417 Sounds good thank you for your help, ill likely stick with the stock fuel pump since there isn’t a stage 2+ 91 tune. Is there any risks involved or maintenance I should do before running an e30 tune on stock hpfp if i got a flex fuel kit, i’m at 63k miles and don’t wanna mess anything up.
nothing special just keep up with regular maintenance and run logs every once in a while
What’s the max WHP you figure someone can get on an m340i
B58tu
Catless downpipe
JB4 Tune with EWG connecter
Pump gas **
450ish
Is it risky for the cam to run aftermarket pumps on a gen 1 b58? I have a downpipe and tune and i just want to prevent any catastrophic failures. I also like to run a bm3 standard 91 octane tune to make about 400 whp
No it is not
I’d say if you were worried about it to just replace the cam follower when you upgrade the fuel pump. I replaced my follower and gasket when I installed mine just for a piece of mind. The old follower had almost 50k miles on it and still looked pretty good.
I do not plan on going big turbo I’m just wanna run the stage 2+ tune from bootmod3 should I by the tu bump or the dorch stage 1 I have Hurd story’s in forums of the tu pump eating the cam or blowing a injector have you hurd if any of theses issues and what would you recommend
TU is fine
@@kern417 thanks I appreciate it
if i have mhd stage 2, catless b58, 93 pump gas, should i get a tu? i might get an upgraded turbo in the future. what kind of difference would it make with/without an upgraded turbo?
stage 2 does not require a hpfp upgrade. only stage 2+ (or mhd calls it stage 2 hpfp)
yeah i'll for sure buy the stage 2+ tune for mhd, but do you think its worth it to go TU? maybe if i eventually buy a turbo upgrade i'll go dorch, but for now is TU a worthwhile upgrade?@@kern417

Have people had any problems with TU pump on the gen 1 b58
No
Can i run TU pump on Stage 2 91(ACN) ? Or would i need to go to Stage 2+ ?
Yes
hi kern quick question i have 2017 540i planning to run bootmod3 stage 2 93oct do you think it would make sense to invest in the tu pump ?
Stage 2 requires a downpipe. Stage 2+ requires a hpfp. So it's up to you.
@@kern417 yeah i just plan to run stage 2 not stage 2+ i was debating if i should do a tu or stage 1 dorch or if it even makes sense to get one at all since i’m just staying at stage 2
I went for an mhd 93 stage 2 tune and my stock pump couldn’t handle the power so I upgraded the pump for tu pump and much better 440i owner
Try to go for stage 2 then do the logs if all goods then no need for an upgraded pump
@@hasan_440i appreciate you i have a 540i so let’s see how it goes just received most of my parts recently

Also wondering this. I'm not going higher than MHD Stage2 but do want to run full E85
Truly the best B58 content in the world. Thank you so much brother 🫶🏾 Excited to take the next step from my is350 to a 340i
Will Dorch Stg1 be enough for Hybrid Turbo with e30/meth?
Yes
How about e50 instead ? Or do I need stage 2
Do you plan on keeping your old pumps, or are they already gone?
The TU pump is sold. I may go back to stock pump in the future if I add port injection
Based on your b58 tuning guide video, ive decided to go stick with a stage 2+\2.5 on my 2018 440i. If im looking to tune with MHD and run a VRSF catless downpipe, would i even need the dorch stage 1? Or could i get away with the TU?
Tu is the minimum requirement
What is the highest ethanol rating the Supra tu pump can run in only looking to run e50 on my “fastest map” will it hold and do okay ?

How you feel about Fuel It HPFP??
seems fine but requires bending the fuel lines
@@kern417 yea I seen that. Not really a fan of that
If staying stock turbo, would you go TU pump or Stage 1? Planning on stage 2 tune and maybe e-30 mix once a Gas ⛽️ station comes near by.
Like the video said, TU and stage one both are limited around the same.
