Sounds good man, she rips. I've got a B58 340 but it's manual so I can't really do the digs without risking the transmission. You still running the stock clutch?
Swapping in a clutch from a 550i will be enough to help your trans handle a decent amount of torque. Kern417 has a few vids on what the manual trans can handle.
is this xdrive? Also do you have any idea if launching is safe past the 500whp mark? I do be wary of axles and the trasmission struggling with torque. I know it can start slipping at the 650 torque mark in some cars and 6th gear is especially weak. See i want an auto for DD and launching but if it cant handle the power for launching often then id probs go manual for the engagement. Cuz i dont wanna be scared and like holoding back all the time cuz what if it breaks and im in the middle of nowhere lol
@@captainminecraftist I also haven’t gotten bored with the Zf8 in my 20’ M340i and I come from all manuals before this. Last car was an Evo 9. For some reason the car keeps getting better and better. I really enjoy this auto and car in general.
What octane are you running with your E50? I’m running E50 92 octane mix with Pure 800 Dorch stage 2 and I only get like 555 wheel/430 torque dyno. Yours looks much faster lol
@@boost9533 thats about right for the gc though i would expect torque to be higher. That hp number is usually what you get around the point where it doesnt make sense to keep pushing it efficiency wise. You casn squeeze 600 with ethonol but its working hard. pure 800 has a higher cap, but really the new one is going to be a bunch better because it has a custom housing rather than modifying your existing stock turbo. Which is what they used to do with the pure 800. I think it was becasue during the pandemic they ran out of stock turbos to use for people who didnt want to send theirs in and it was hampering sales
stage 3 downshifts are a bit too aggressive for me so I use personalized throttle blips. Also used line pressure bump. Others are personal preference like use stock shiftmaps and take off in 2nd gear.
Well the m340is (2019+) dont have hpfp upgrade options so you're limited to around 500whp unless you got port injection. 2016-2018 340is you can get a dorch st2 hpfp which supports around 700whp.
The b58 engine does not have a bov and it's not practical to install one either. This specific turbo I have makes the sound. I am waiting for another turbo with the t51r mod though. Also it sounds more like a flutter than a sneeze in person.
@@ryanz9513 No it's just a stage 1 hybrid turbo (stock hot side, but a little bigger compressor ). Will get a full frame turbo soon from Remnant Performance with their t51r mod.
. Usually its just the turbo making it. I can confirm even stock 4 cylinders and suv's have a blow off sneeze sound too thats actually audible in person without a bov
You can tell how hard it pulls from the video, that’s awesome dude
I had a lot of cars and I still want a b58 motor. This to me is the best daily vehicle…
Yes.
Yes.
Yes.
Yes.
Yes.
It just sounds angry as hell I love it
Sounds good man, she rips. I've got a B58 340 but it's manual so I can't really do the digs without risking the transmission. You still running the stock clutch?
I have the 8speed auto. It's a stock trans with xhp stage 3 tune.
whats wrong with b58's trans?
Swapping in a clutch from a 550i will be enough to help your trans handle a decent amount of torque. Kern417 has a few vids on what the manual trans can handle.
This doesn't have a clutch. The ZF8 in this car is good to 1000Nm to my knowledge.
@@jp_b58 yes but did you get a new clutch? I'm assuming not
😮💨
That car is sweet hella funny you drove by my apartment in this video
Love this type of vids! Custom tune right ? 29PSI is insane
yes. 29psi in the top end and 26 in the midrange to protect the trans.
Wow what a turn on 🦴
Insane acceleration
GOLD !! SUBBED !!
BRO wtf..... thing looks fun af
nice whell

The car is RWD with drag radials. I don't launch my car so I wouldn't know, but I try not to overheat my trans. Go for a manual.
@@jp_b58 Ah i gotcha. I was gonna say that was crazy grippy for rwd. Also is the auto boring after a while?
@@captainminecraftist no but the car makes 600whp and it doesn't get old.

91 from Cali. Do you have a custom tune?
@@jp_b58 that’s nuts. Yes I do I’ve gone through two now with similar results. Guess maybe that might be the issue though haha
@@boost9533 That or you live in high elevation? The pure800 flows more air than the Vargas GC.

I just got xhp tune what’s your set up look like any custom settings applied
stage 3 downshifts are a bit too aggressive for me so I use personalized throttle blips. Also used line pressure bump. Others are personal preference like use stock shiftmaps and take off in 2nd gear.
What’s your set up for throttle blips
@@Driven_Life 2-1: -35% 3-2: -30% 4-3: 8% 5-4 -3% 8-5: -40%
I feel like my paddle shifts are slower than stock there’s a hesitation now on normal driving but on WOT it’s really fast is that normal
@@Driven_Life trying turning on "use stock shiftmaps". shifts are slower in comfort mode in the OTS maps.
Let’s make some videos together how much hp you pushing now b58 vs n63tu I think you’ll win but it will be a cool video to see let me know
I never dyno'd it but should be around 580whp. Ye I'm down probably next week though.
Let me know if you still down to make a video this weekend
@@Driven_Life I'm free Sunday. What's your IG?
@@jp_b58 my bad I used to have ig but not anymore lol hope you got my info Sunday is good
@@jp_b58 just tell me what time you gonna be at that gas station and I’ll be there Sunday
I’m looking at buying 1 what year and trim is the best for tuning I also want awd

@@jp_b58 Is it the same with the 240is? Looking at getting one soon
@@raddreacts yes 2016+ m240i
How much bhp does that thing have I have a 440i and she doesn’t act like that for sure!😂
600whp
do you have a bov? what makes that sneeze at the end??

@@jp_b58 are you running a big turbo kit? or stock frame turbo, sounds so insane?
