I kept the swirl flaps on my M47, but I cleaned the whole manifold system (using your video on that subject) and removed the EGR so only air and oil are coming to the manifold. It’s been ~110k km since then, manifold is still perfectly clean and flaps are holding strong 💪🏻
Glad to hear!
@@GeorgeAusters what size turbo?
Keeping it humorous .
Technician crack at 7.50 .
You’re appealing to a broad market George . 😂
Great tech content as ever .
Keep on keeping on .
Glad you enjoyed it Archie!
Nice one George, Nice to see the team up with Darkside Developments... One step closer to meeting DannyDC2 too (which is how I found Darkside)
Holy Sh*t. Wonder what will break first...
-Gearbox
-Torque converter
-X Drive/Driveshaft
-Brakes
Anyway, you're a brave man George 😁👍
Hope you’re enjoying that extra power, I’ve an F25 35D with twin scroll turbo, mapped to 375 hp and 650NM and it pulls like a train, well worth doing 👍
Will be taking it for a good proper drive soon!
So it pulls like a Golf with 1.9 PD? 😂
The m57 sd (twin turbo) has meaty meaty injectors and can essily be tuned to 400 with bolt ons.
Nice one mate for filming this honest content. Can’t wait for reaction vid
Glad you enjoyed it.. First drive reaction video coming soon!
do you have 6 speed transmission or 8 speed transmission? im planing this car but im not sure which transmission to pick
6
@@GeorgeAusters thank you for the quick answer 😄
Getting a bit dark there at the end 😎
I have a 35D that needs all the deletes and a remap. Starts with 286, so it should be similar output as I probably won’t touch the turbos or intercooler. Despite twin turbos, it does still have awful lag. I hope the work will clear out some of that. It’s in my queue… 😀
Let Darkside know I sent you👍🏻
@@GeorgeAusters yep. 👍 thanks for doing the vid.
Common for the smaller turbo to become lazy you should have full torque from 1700rpm I believe.
@@piovo5222 thanks, yeah, it’s a bit higher than than before it all takes off. I can hear the whistle now too on overrun, there might be a leak somewhere or a problem with the throttle body.
This is never cheap to do turbo and tuning sessions with custom mapping only thing I ll do myself after this is the gearbox fluid the diff and an oil change possibly add fresh coolant , enjoy the beast waiting on road test
Hi George I'm new to BMW's I bought a really nice 2008 series 5 e61 M57 engine I bought new swirl flaps gaskets and blanking plug to find out that this does not have them it's a early 2008 I was informed it was only the later model that were discontinued. Just a quick question is it illegal to blank of egr and other items fitted when taking it for the MOT. Cheers.
EGR and DPF delete is technically illegal👍🏻
Great job my x3 35 d whent from 309 bhp to 339 bhp and 630 nm to 700 nm 😮
So the turbo you installed also failed? Was it due to oil in the system?
It didn’t fail, it just had play in the shaft👍🏻
@@GeorgeAusters was the return process easy enough? Kind of scared to buy a turbo from them now.
George ~ awesome video & build. I am pending a purchase from Darkside......did I hear you mention that you had a link to them that provided "free shipping?" Best regards....love your channel
Yes just use code GeorgeAustersYT 👍🏻
If you don’t mind me asking. How much did the tuning set you back? Not including the turbo.
Wonder if they can
take my 525d to 275bhp.
My 4.0d is 301 so 400 would be nice.
Not sure on individual pricing, best to get in touch with them and tell them I sent you to get an accurate price👍🏻
Will do where are they based ?
Barnsley
@@GeorgeAusters not far away from me. 40 mins.
@@GeorgeAusters they managed to replace turbo from the top without removing the valve cover?
Hi, George have got roughy idea how much a specialist will charge to delete the EGR and Cooler on my 535d.
Not sure but I did do a video installing the delete kit👍🏻
Had a ECU and gearbox remap, with a Upgraded MTC intercooler and a KN filter. Got to 392bhp and 737nm. Only problem is traction now. Wish I had the luxury of 4WD, the torque is brutal, gets too hairy on damp roads.
Never delete egr cooler, risk of overheating.
I’ve deleted the EGR and cooler on all my cars
@@GeorgeAusters it's like a lottery, but I wouldn't do it.
Ive got a X5 40d
Im getting an error code im told relates to the dpf being end of life.....
I have been told dpf delete is the answer, do i need to do the egr aswell. Thanks
I thought you put a new turbo on it?
did you get the transmission tuned?
Not this time no👍🏻
@@GeorgeAusters oh, it's a must. Stock transmission tune is torque limited. YOu should get the suthpin trans tune, it'll make your beast a monster!!!!
Is that legal with no dpf?. I'd like to delete the dpf on my e61, but only if it would still pass an emissions test.
If your engine is healthy and the map is good then it should pass an MOT no problem👍🏻
@@GeorgeAusters hmm, food for thought.. cheers 👍
Is it illegal to remove EGR and DPF?
Although it is not illegal to remove the EGR from your vehicle, it is an offence under the Road vehicles (Construction and Use) Regulations (Regulation 61a(3))1 to use a vehicle which has been modified in such a way that it no longer complies with the air pollutant emissions standards it was designed to meet. Stop listening to Amateurs who do not know the LAW
@@howardbeer5214 MOT tester has no way of knowing
@@Mr330d You think do you ??? Very wrong unless he is as stupid as you are !
I thought the x5 was your friends?
We bought it together as a project👍🏻
@@GeorgeAusters ah right cool. Thanks for the video. I have a x5 e70 also . Mine is a Lci 40d in individual spec . Rubin scwach metalic. Its a special car. Ever since i owned a e39 touring i got the bmw bug.
He had to buy it off him mate as George knackered the big turbo on it trying to tune it. No clue
What bmw is it
X5
You'll need a new clutch shortly. Standard clutch will start to slip from 3rd gear upwards, when you plant your right foot.
It’s an auto👍🏻
Torque Convector will most likely slip then.
@@AlanRafferty these have a 6HP28 healthy ones easy hold 1000nm all day everyday, there's many in Europe with 1200nm and still no slipping.
@@piovo5222not true. I have a 2011 and 150k it started slipping and throwing trans codes. Just a matter of time now till another trans or rebuild. There’s that and the timing chain issue.
@@casperyourfriendlyghost7552 I said a healthy one mate😂 yours has 150k and probs never been serviced and since yours is the 2011 it will have the 8HP which is far better gearbox. As for timing chains yours has N57 not M57 like in this video and it’s known for chains to go on N57s not like M57s
Where they based …. I’ve got a x3 e83 … mapped to 270bhp…. Love to go get more power …. Bigger turbo etc … guide me fella
Barnsley, website in the description👍🏻
You a giant? 👀. I have climb my car to clean the roof of my f15
I’m 6ft 4👍🏻
need tune for x 5 35d total delete
Contact darkside and let them know I sent you👍🏻
That video was a complete waste of time not even seeing the car on the dyno nor seeing it getting remapped
Do you really expect a company to give away all of its secrets?
@@GeorgeAusters won’t be giving away any secrets running it up on the dyno
What's the point of tuning a diesel? Petrol will be a lot faster anyway!
Every point!
@@GeorgeAusters haha, it's only waste of money. Diesel never will be faster than petrol
@@k-9k-97 Then you'ce clearly never driven a fast diesel
Absolutely clueless, a tuned 335d will hang with tuned PFL 8V RS3.
@@Mac_F87 you are absolutely clueless, stock rs3 is 400 bhp, stage about 460, it will destroy your dirty diesel!
Reman units are a waste of time in fact reman engines are not what they appear. I told you a few weeks back this vehicle is illegal on the road and you said its a track car ?? So which is it ? PS why is it on false plates ???????? DY58 XOU
FIAT GRAND PUNTO You are a very silly boy
Definitely just a track car 😅
@@GeorgeAusters You cannot drive it on a public highway then ? and those plates are false you are a very very silly boy
You need glasses 😂 its OY58 Not DY58
@@davehughes6501 Then that plate is wrong as you cannot put a white fixing in the middle of the letter !! you need the glasses anyway that car is legally not allowed on the public highway FACT
@@howardbeer5214is there something wrong with you...... go and tell someone who gives a rats about your legal interpritation on remaps, track cars, number plates etc ffs
