Here's How to Get 550WHP From Your BMW S55 For Less Than $1,000
Вставка
- Опубліковано 13 кві 2020
- In today's video, I wanted to explain how relatively easy it is to achieve around 530-550whp on the F8X platform with the S55 engine. These cars are very fast out of the factory but with some basic bolt ons and tuning, they can be made even quicker. And the best part about it all is that it doesn't cost much to get there!

I think having a really clean engine bay gives you a solid 5hp
oh yea that too 😃
I agree!! 🤣
I think having a really dirty engine bay, and rubber residue on your rear bumper is worth a solid 5hp.
Absolutely love your videos ever since the first days of your m235i. I appreciate that when you buy a car, you learn everything there is to learn about that specific engine via forums and all that. You did it with the N54, N55, and now the S55. Can’t wait to keep seeing these videos man.
Sidenote, if ya ever need graphic design work for your own brand or videos / channel, feel free to reach out. I work for a professional gaming company for it but through my love of cars, I love to take on side projects involving them whenever I can.
Cannot wait to buy one man, i’ve had a f30 328i for about 4 years now since my 16th birthday. But i’ve been working my ass off these last few months, saving up for an m4. Cannot wait for the scenery change. Keep up the great videos man!
thanks bro! good luck on it man, you’ll get it soon!
Agreed on how easily this engine makes power. Numbers, of course vary, but I've dyno'd 512WHP/562TQ on stock DP's, AA single mid-pipe and BM3 93 Stage1 tune. You can probably squeeze out a bit more on a different tune but I'm having more issues getting grip with that additional power, as is. (Running Michelin PS4's)
that’s amazing! some solid power numbers for sure
got a '13 335is call her Ebony. Got an ARM intercooler, larger piping, charge pipe, k&n high flow air filter. have vrsf inlets/outlets coming in two days and an ER oil cooler ordered. comes from factory 320 hp 332 tq with the overboost to 370...so after all the mods are installed figure ill have AT LEAST 350 hp 375 tq and with the overboost still in play figure 7 seconds of 400 tq. Thanks for the inspiration, been a fan since your murdered out 335i, keep it coming stay healthy out there
Man you are like the m4/m3 master haha. Im expecting to buy a 2019 m4 comp in february and all i do now is watch yoytube vids of m4's to pass time. Glad to have stumbled on ur channel!
Great mix of info/images. Carry on 👍🏾
Thanks man! I'm glad to hear you enjoyed the video!
Hello from San Marcos mate! Been thinking of buying an F82 M4, so I’ve enjoyed your videos as a nice guide to buying, owning, modding a M4. Keep it up.
Been 12mos today in the M4, smart buy you past version of me.
@@Mdhneo007 do you still have it? thinking about getting one myself.
@@solo7263 yep and still loving it. Great car, best looking M in my opinion. And even just slightly modded, very quick, more than needed as a non professional driver.
I am almost full bolt on with a bootmod3 stage 2 tune, and the car is crazy fast already. 2 more parts to install catless downpipes/ heat exchanger along with my spark plugs and then it’s on to bigger turbos!! Keep posting bro you gained a sub from me ✊🏿
thanks bro! Thats awesome, i just installed downpipes on my new M4. I no longer have this one but it sounds incredible with my m performance exhaust
@stayfocusedM3 you ran stage 2 without downpipes? I’m looking to do that too but wondered how it will fewl
@@kimithar8207 I have CTS turbo high flow downpipes on the car I thought about going catless but my tuner says I don’t need it where the car sits now
How is it thus far? How is the crankhub
Omar brilliant video as always loving the ///M4 stay safe Bro 🇬🇧
I haven’t even watched the video yet and I’m gonna guess DOWNPIPES and a TUNE
good guesses :D
@@SimplyCarThings Missing crank hub fix and it's not an over blown concern.
@@tomjones5166 I mentioned the crank hub fix in the beggining of the video tho?
Tom Jones crank hub fix is like $4k, surprised there hasn’t been a class action lawsuit considering it kills stock motors
@@SimplyCarThings I know you talked about the crank hub fix. I am just upset it really cost $4500 or $7600 in my case to make 550whp. It's hard to find anyone in my area to do the fix at a reasonable price, so that being said my 2016 M3 is going to stay stock to avoid headaches down the road.
Foreign Affairs Motorsport in Pompano said it was $6600 total for the crank hub fix with parts. That's crazy considering that I supercharged my 2012 Mustang GT for around that much back in 2012.
I would tune my M3 in a heartbeat if it really was around $1k for 550whp.
Another great video Omar! I need an m3/m4 in my life 😢
thanks bro! theyre too much fun :D
2013 335is on JB4 map 5 with ECS cf DCI, AA Chargepipe & Bov. I run an E20 blend here and there. Thinking i’m pushing somewhere around 400 hp and plan on upgrading to catless dp’s soon. Looking forward to your track build. 👌🏼💯
Warn the peeps that NGK iridium spark plug change( to a colder range) is highly recommended after the tune. You should also mention that charge pipes and intakes are also cheaper mods to do. NICE Video!
Awesome man, thanks for watching! Yes, i have install videos on my NGK plugs, chargepipes, and intakes!
Yep, 1 step colder spark plugs is necessary to prevent detonation with the tune.
Guess what Im doing after I get my Stimulated Check? 😂 Thanks for the idea
Chriz Cars 😂 you’re very welcome brotha 🤙🏼
If I were you i’d save that check...but then again, I already spent my $ on a downpipe and tune 🤔...Go For It!!!
Negah Plz Fuck it !! 🤣🔥
Negah Plz i mean its supposed to be used so that the $ goes back into the economy, so go for it
The 425 hp on my 2018 f80 is more than enough for me, but to each his own, I'm never modding or adding anything to it, it's so perfect, this thing is already crazy fast. I'm in love with it, 😍🤩🤩,picked it up today and hit the autobahn, 155mph, scary stuff.
More like 480hp stock, it is under rated.
Me too ! Just got mine love it ! Part of me wants to mod it a bit though
Give it a few months. The amount of power for the taking is irresistible. But DEFINITELY do the crank hub mod FIRST - mine failed before any mods. Lucky me, since it’s my wife’s and it would’ve been hard to justify given it’s a zero hp mod and the labor is intensive. But once you’ve done that, you can walk your way all the way up to 800 whp if you want, though the larger turbo’s required cost about $5k+. No need to get ahead of yourself though. Do intakes, charge pipes, down pipes (high flow cats or catless), definitely add a midpipe (I love my equalized midpipe which cancels out the 18” difference in turbo placement before the crossover to equalize engine pulse, so it no longer sounds like two 3 cylinder motors having a shouting match. Add the JB4 and select a tune. I’m hoping to make nearly 600whp in my Competition Package once I spring for the $800 form fitted trunk mounted hidden water/methanol injection system similar to the stock GTS.
Oh, I forgot, with the mods I listed, you’ll either need to upgrade your top mounted I trrcoolsr (about $600 for the non-Mishimoto, less expensive version) or you’ll have to replace Tyler heat exchanger up front that faces down. I opted for the larger intercooler but I did find it a wise idea to buy an aluminum heat exchanger guard - which replaces the stock plastic one since my car is lowered and it gets shitty Houston street duty. I’ve already scraped it pretty good so I feel it’s well worth the $300-$400, especially if you go with a larger heat exchanger (which I don’t think I’ll need to at these power levels, but who knows?)
That heat exchanger guard is sold by Berger Motorsports in a bare aluminum version or a black wrinkle powder coat. Very nice, well fitting piece.
I made 381whp and 421wtq on my 08 335i using MHD stage 1+ e30. Currently getting a carbon cleaning and downpipes and stage 2 fuel pump and bumping up to Stage 2+ e50 hopefully get some good power out of that.
Got those same exact modes and relocated inlets. You’ll be around 430whp 480wtq.
Solid video bro ! I’m currently running on my f82 stage 1 Bm3 vrsf Catless DPs eventuri drop ins and mishimoto charge pipes stock hub on 93. Low 5s to the wheel
Thanks brotha! That sounds like a sweet setup, making me excited to get some more bolt ons on mine and get it tuned as well!
I made 503whp 540wtq just on stage 1 on my f80m3 manual trans on dyno. With front mount intakes and aa mid pipes. On 93 octane. Was very impressed when i saw the dyno number
wow, that is very impressive. were you tuned with Bootmod3?
Simply Car Things yea i got bootmod3 stage 1. I guess manual trans probably makes more hp i do have better gear ratios its a six speed compared to 7 longer gears
I have had my F80 for 2 years now. Driven about 40K miles. Been tuned for all 40k miles. I have both 93 custom map (502whp/490wtq)and e30 map( 564whp/540wtq). I haven’t spun my crank hub but I have had issues including 2 leaking intercoolers and a broken axle. I am the only one out of my 3 friends who hasn’t spun their crank hub. One was a stock DCT comp, one was a tuned manual e85 convertible, and one was a tuned DCT e50 comp. they say if you leave the torque low you have a better chance of not spinning. So that’s why my torque is lower than my horsepower.
Old comment I know. How is it holding up? Also do you drive hard? Do you track your car? And is it a manual or a dct?
@@tigeralpha1480 just hit 80K. Still stock crankhub. It is manual. Haven’t had any issues. I drive it hard every single day. I drive it like I stole it. I don’t do any track days but I have taken it out on the track a few times at Monticello Motor Club.
@@austinkrainz6965 Thanks for replying
@@austinkrainz6965 maybe the issue is just blown out of proportion, who knows
Hey we’re your friends on a custom tune or off the shelf tune?
My crank hub slipped on my stock 40k mile ‘16 M4 as I pulled into my driveway after driving aggressively. No symptoms until I tried to start it again. I personally wouldn’t Eff with the S55 until the crank hub issue is addressed.
The first upgrade I would worry about if you plan on driving the snot out of an F80 or F82 is the tires. Get those 275 rears off the car and replace with the 763M or 666M wheels so you can put 285 rubber on the rear (and make sure it’s either Cup 2s, super sports, or equivalent sticky tire from another brand). Maybe even install an M Perf. spoiler. Power is fun to have but being a RWD car with all that torque, grip, not power, really is the limiting factor in a lot of performance driving situations. Now, if it’s the next gen G80 with Mxdrive then tune to your hearts content 😁.
I have 285 rubber on my stock rims, I have seen 295 fit.
Jack O nice. Does that strain the bead of the tire or does it seem pretty solid?
@@RB-xv4si No, looks better, actually like the 275s were too small.
@@RB-xv4si I mean 10mm is not much. I have seen a few guys stuff 305s under there. Too big for me.
hey man, what do you do about the secondary cats? remove them too or only the main cats ?
Have a 2020 m2c with intakes and a race chip. No bootmod available for newer m2c. DME is locked down from Bmw. Any suggestions other than bench unlock?
Same thing with the B58, dp, catless, hpfp, e blend and you are pushing well above 500whp.
Nice M4! Those roads look familiar. Will this place your talking about in Vista be interested in doing F10 M5 downpipes? I live in north Oceanside/Vista area.
good call for stock power on track these cars are hard to keep the tires on the ground with stock power on track. I've done a autoX with Full E85 and the car was putting down 487Whp and 578Tq on a mustang dyno those numbers are way lower than what a dyno jet would say. Car was absolutely nuts in a straight line and so fun but that came to an end when I spun my crank hub and I haven't tuned it since and honestly its cool cuz I was gonna get arrested on the way to work.
295 In the rear fixes the problem
Did you ever run a 1/4mile with the modded m235??? If so what was it, thanks!
FBO Stage 2 BM3 on my M235i. So much fun you already know this lol
Speedy Gonz F22 oh yes, loved my M235i Stage 2 was a total blast!
Great video! You mentioned swapping from the plastic to aluminum charge pipes. Will there be issues if the j pipe isnt upgraded assuming I'll be running bootmod3 stage 2?
Many kits do include the J-Pipe as well, but I think the factory one holds up well. But it wouldn't hurt to upgrade it to an aluminum piece as well
You run the chance of the plastic splitting and losing charge the older and more heat exposed the plastic gets. It’s not a big deal if they split, you’ll just be riding dirty (slow & noisy) until you get some aluminum replacements.
dude hell yeah. never driven an f8x but i have a feeling its powerband would be highly, highly intoxicating. i do love my N55 tho!
i love the N55 as well! the S55 is intoxicating no doubt, the power is aggressive and brutal!
Do I need to upgrade top mount intercooler or charge pipe if I installed a downpipes with a tune ?
Is downpipes is enough with the OEM airfilters?
Do I need to modify fuel lines/pump/injectiors to run E30?
All the other M3 platforms are great but none are better than the F80 when it comes to ease of horsepower gains.
Is the crank hub full replacement needed or is the Vargas crank plate a solid solution up to 550?
anything above 500hp wheel is on borrowed time...
I'm a owner of an F82 BMW M4,I will like to get more HP what I should change ??? Is everything stick except exhaust system (Akrapovic titanium,insane loud)
Was that downtown Temecula in the intro?!?? Been loving the content - new sub here!
Thanks man! Yes it was
Hey nice vid by the way, thanks a lot, but I just want to ask you if I decided to go with everything you said about the crank hub, the downpipe and the tune and everything is stock from the internals to the cooling system, and I dont need to track it but just to drive it daily and spiritedly... will these just be fine with my engine and etc, will there be no problems with the engine in the future? or do I really need to change the cooling system? hope to hear from you. Thanks in advance!
Hey bro, thought I'd step in and help. No, you'll be fine without upgrading the cooling if you don't track it. However, I would recommend upgrading the top mount cooler to a CSF or Wagner as it is a failure point and leaks. Also, upgrade some of the plastic bits to aluminum (Charge pipes & J-pipe) and look at an aftermarket intake for better sound and airflow. Hope this helped and was still relevant a month later.
Live the channel. If I'm doing a stage 2 bootmod3 downpipes and crankhub should i should do intakes as well?
Do i need the chargepipes and intercooler? Im not tracking the car.
Thanks!
chargepipes - yes, intercooler yes, if you track the car and live in a hot environment
Does anyone have experience with flashing the transmission with the competition settings? What’s better about the transmission on the competition versions?
Ryan Lush I flashed the GTS transmission. It’s faster and smoother shifts
So should I be worried about the crank hub or no
love that sound 🤤
thank you bro, me too 😃
I wonder if this would be true for the f10 5 series as well
Do high flow cats have the same effect as catless? And would high flow cats pass an emissions test?
yep, overall they have the same effect. As for emissions i'm not entirely sure
Are you worried about traction? I was stock and I would break grip on the highway. Not sure what tires I had.
Definitely haha, i'll most likely get some wider and grippier tires like NT01's or something like that
did you install any hub capture bolt ?
Do you know any shops in San Diego that can do a Crankhub
N55 135, I think I have around 390whp/4xx tq with mhd , down pipes , fmic, intake, charge pipe
Have you sorted the crank hub problem ?
how much did u pay to get crank hub done ?
Do you think mhd stage 0 burble tune and transmission tune would put my f82 at risk to spin the crank hub ??
Nope. I'm stage 2+ full E85 and haven't spun my hub yet lol. 120 000 km's on the car though so it's solid. 😊
425whp stock. 500whp on the dyno BM3 stage 1 on 93 octane m3 F80 2016. Injen intake and charge pipes. Active Autoworke midpipes. Don't have downpipes.
Do you have a link for those down pipes?
What does 550 whp equate to in the quarter mile for these on a good tire? How is the s55 reliability??
Pls don't mod it, mine is good so far, maybe the looks, I promise you no extra hp is needed, its perfect, this vehicle is so great it make me a bad driver feel like a pro, no exaggeration, speaking from experience.
How much work and labor is involved in swapping in and out catless downpipes?? For those of us living in California if we are worried about running into issues at smog check time that something that potentiallly would have to be taken off and go back to stock , get the car smogged and then modify it again even if it’s every two years is this like a major pain in the ass or something the do it yourself or Guy could do on their own??
Save yourself the hassle if you live in Cali and pay a lil bit more for the high flow cats. Will lose a few hp but I don’t think you’d feel it.
How is the reliability with the engine after these mods? Does this greatly affect the potential for the crank hub to break? I'm in the market for a new car and I'm looking at this or a CTS V3
It’s a MUST. People say you can take your chances but mine slipped before any mods and the BMW R&D guys came out to look at it despite getting the work done at a private European shop owned by an ex-BMW mechanic. Don’t chance it. It could cost you $25k.
Have you changed your crane hub?
Omar I’m sure you know this but you should consider a custom tune through Carry Jordan for 91 and E85
most definitely! once my crank hub is upgraded I would really be interested in a custom flash for this car
what soft you use for tune
What do you think about Vargas crank hub? I wanna do crank hub fix before I do anything to my f80 jahre any suggestions? Thanks in advance
Jon Nellas i think its a good route to go! they recently released their V2 kit which improves on the original design, i have a few friends running the VTT kit with CBC and no issues at all
Simply Car Things thank you that info I’m talking to studio rsr guy to do the job for me so I will have a peace of mind
@@jonnellas7680 no problem! Yea Toby will take care of you, just tell him you were referred by Omar from Simply Car Things
Does it void the warranty?
Because I’m trying to decide between an ATS V Or M4. They’re direct competitors and I see those ats v’s easily pumping out 550whp for under $1000 safe and reliably. I hear a lot of shit about m4’s though. I have a sweet spot for the m4 just cuz or the looks, but I’m starting to lean towards the ATS V
How much is it to fix the crank hub?
It feel like just yesterday i was watching your old video on how to do the same with the N54 on stock turbos
Dante Moncrieffe about $3,500 in SoCal with parts (Maximum PSI upgrade) and labor included at the time of this video. There are both cheaper and more expensive parts, but most people run with Max PSI’s.
Kies Motorsports offers a kit for like $1300 bucks. I thought I saw him do it for Tommy L Garage and said it was like $2200 installed.
I take back what I said on price. He said it took someone a full day and thats a lot more than $900 labor. ua-cam.com/video/G7bTu1Dc5sw/v-deo.html
Ryan Lush Yee Tommy said his was like $3500-$4000 total. I wish it was $2200 lol
Kevin Chung I don’t know where I came up with $2200. It was on the list but now it’s a little further down. I’m hoping it’s less likely if I avoid aggressive downshifts.
Custom tune made the car way faster than it was with the OTS tune.
I like your M4 👍 sounds good too 👌🏽
Wadson Motoring Appreciate the kind words man! 🤙🏼
Simply Car Things 👍
Can you link those downpipes
Why you dont go to dyno?
Hi, what is the oil consumption like on your M4 ? i have a 2014 F82 M4 with almost 50K miles on it and it uses about a liter every 5 or 6K
I drive it pretty hard most days but especially on the weekends with a lot of Motorway driving during the week also..
Hi. Do you still have the car? My car has 85k and burns 0 oil. I did have to change the oil cooler at 80k. Maybe your oil cooler or valve cover gasket is leaking?
@@yg78t76t7 Hi, i crashed it 2 years ago, really bad one too, spent 6 weeks in the hospital but i lived👍 Car was a complete write off but had it fully insured so got something back out of it.

Hey Omar I’m a huge fan of your channel I remember watching your N54 and knowing I wanted to get into BMW’s and the N series engines.
My car:
I ended up with a F10 535i with the N55, I’ve been working on it done all maintenance myself and am currently BM3 Stage 2, catless FBO, the works lmao. I’m assuming since my car is a PWG I’m running about 380 to the wheel and man it feels great. I absolutely love the car it’s completely murdered out, carbon interior, I love it. This summer I’m planning to save for possibly the big boost 3.4 kit which should take me easily to 500 wheel which is basically my goal, I absolutely adore your M4 and I was so happy when I saw that you picked it up. You have ensured for me that when I’m finally ready for a new car it will be S55 powered. I absolutely love your videos and you’ve become one of my favorite UA-camrs in the car region as you are so knowledgeable, professional, and overall deliver a great and solid message. Keep it up.
Jay Herrmann Thank you so much for the comment, Jay! So glad to hear you’re in this community with us and it’s cool to see you modding an F10 since it’s a platform that usually gets overlooked in my opinion. Keep up the good work on your build man 🤙🏼
A infiniti g37 or q50 will still smoke you dawg and search up how unreliable n55s are. To heavy and its getting outdated
Lemon Eggs nobody asked. But since you brought it up I have an f30 335i with the n55 and I took a q50 with the vr30 to gapplebees even though he had the jump. The vr30 is twin turbod and came very underrated from the factory. Compare it to something that is also twin turbod with a 3.0 6 cylinder like an m3 with the s55 and it will get destroyed.
@@WatchAlexLP SEARCH up admintune nissan 370z and q50s they be smoking new mustangs 5.0 and camaros which are way faster than the m4 or m3 plus they handle better than the new 3 series
Lemon Eggs my car walks 5.0s, SRTs and scat packs too. Smoked a couple of those V8s last weekend in the top end too. If you’re trying to say a tuned q50 would beat a tuned M4 then you got it all wrong. Q50/60s are great cars and are definitely V8 slayers but they are not faster than an f80 m3 or m4. Better engines than a n55 to make power on a stage 2 tune definitely but what competes better with the vr30 is the b58.
Crank hub?

This is the first M4 thats “farts” every shift🧐
Hill House Media There’s a way to get it to upshift like that, but it’s a secret 😎😂
Simply Car Things HOW
S55 vs B58, thoughts ? Love all feedback.
B58 is a great engine but S55 is superior imo. Better oil supply, better fuel system, forged pistons, higher revving, etc
Will this work on a non M3 BMW.
No, it will not
Hey @simplycarthings, I think at 2:36, you forgot to link the video you refer to :)
Matthew Booker adding it now! thanks bro 💪🏼
@@SimplyCarThings No problem. Kudos for another great video! Keep em comin :)
That’s it I’m getting this platform
good choice!
@@SimplyCarThings is it worth getting the base model?
If I was to buy the m4, use it as my daily, and keep it almost stock. Do you personally think it’ll stay over all reliable?
From what I've heard, the engines in the M3 and M4 are fairly reliable stock, however something like the crankhub is something to consider getting done. I think you should be able to have the car up to 70k without any major issues if left alone
You need to educate yourself a little. This cars can take a beating.
BluesmurF80M3 who are you tellin to get educated? Me or the other guy?
The Elite that killed Noble Six YOU lmao😅 these cars are reliable af while sitting at 600+whp
BluesmurF80M3 ok bud, no need to say something in a dicky way like “you need to educate yourself a little”... I asked a genuine question. I didn’t say that they’re unreliable. I simply asked if it would stay reliable... thanks for the great advice though champ.
I use MHD tuning for my m4
These cars don’t need any cooling mods whatsoever ive seen them tracked fbo 100% e85 all day 95 out and they are fine
that's great to hear since ill be tracking my F82!

I have a ps2 full e85 n55 that isn’t running rn 😅
noooo what happened??!
Cool.
I have ‘15 M4 and I want an exhaust but it’s so pricey almost $5k 😕
If thats expensive you shouldnt have bought the M4 in the first place
Damn thats messed up. I saw m3 exhuasts for 2500-5k. Titanium should be 5k, u dont need titanium unless u really kicking up the boost
O00O000O uhm...m4 can be bad for 34k readily able to purchase by non rich people. 5k for an exhaust for ANY car is way too expensive.
KentBummerM go custom it’ll be way cheaper
Enfin il découvre bmw en Amérique il était temps perso nous en france on adore croyer nous on l oublie jamais c est un amours pour la vie
This is how you make your tires not hook 😂
How bad does it smell with catless downpipes?
the smell is pretty noticeable at idle. Especially with the windows down
@@SimplyCarThings thank you, if I dont want to deal with the smell could I go with a high flow cat vs a straight up down pipe
So.....what about smog?
1:05 No love for the F83 😭

don't you get 94 or 95 AON (average octane#) ?
Sepp Meier the units are different from the us and everywhere else
@@RossMetzler USA should be the average of RON+MON en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Octane_rating
I thought running stock power on track with a decat will be bad for the car due to the excess flow from the exhaust?
are you lowered in the vid?
Yes, lowered on Swift Spec-R Springs
You forgot the f83 m4 cab
Something I've noticed a lot and mainly on american car channels is you guys normally say Wheel Horse Power and not BHP/HP. The graph you show at 5 mins shows max power of 503.37. Please do correct me if I am wrong but this is BHP. To get to WHP you have a loss of power due to the drive train which varies for different cars and both manual vs automatic vs awd etc.. For cars like ours there is an approx 15% loss meaning that 500HP made at the engine becomes 425 Wheel HP. Maybe I have misunderstood something? Apart from that love the videos. Funnily enough when you got your m235 i got my m240 and the same week you got your m4 i got my m2c.
The graph shows wheel hp, so add 10-15 % and you have bhp or crank hp. 500 at the wheels is 550 ish at the crank.
@@jacko4511 does it? Could you clarify where it says that? Also my friends F80 with decat downpipes, intake and exhaust system makes 550bhp (at the engine). So the title of the video is 550 Wheel HP meaning the engine is making 632 BHP (roughly). Does that require the E85? If so I take back what I said. I just know these engines can make 550bhp stage 2 but not 550WHP at stage two.
Rafael Graham-Mosmang The dynos almost never explicitly state whp, it’s just an implied figure. In order to hit that 550whp mark, you’ll need to be flashed Stage 2 for 93 OCT in the US running an E30 blend. Hope that clarifies 🤙🏼
@@rafaelgraham-mosmang6283 My question to you is how did your friends car get dyno tested? Was the motor out of the car? In the States almost all cars are dyno on a chassis dyno, with some exceptions of engine builders maybe testing a motor before it goes in a car.
Rafael Graham-Mosmang You can only measure BHP if your engine is out of the car and is mounted directly on an engine dyno. All chassis dynos (engine still in the car) measure the power at the wheels of the car after it has all went through the flywheel, transmission, driveshaft, diff, and axles and thus gives you wheel horsepower.
Why are you at the riverside city college lol
I want to do BM3 too but I was told I’d need to upgrade turbos with Pure Turbos for best results
KentBummerM you don’t need upgraded turbos unless you want crazy power, you can make decent power on stock turbos
