    I’m hoping to get an F36 430i soon, and here in the UK i’ll be running the US equivalent of E5 93 octane (97 octane in UK). If my goal is ~350whp, I wonder what you would recommend?
    Obviously you say that the pistons are slightly different (but not massively so), so i’m wondering - can I not just fit the 350bar HPFP from the G-series to the B48 in the F series? That way I should be able to push a little bit past that 300bhp limit the F-series is known to have with the pistons cracking?
    Also, I’d upgrade the turbo to achieve the ~350whp with as little boost as possible.
    What do you think? 👀

    @drj144 6 месяцев назад +2

    1st of all thank you for your guide. Just a few technical questions that i think most f30 320 330e would appreciate
    i see that the main issue is that the higher compression and fuel system of the f30 320 would lead to knock.
    So my question is? Does swapping the piston to OEM 330 help?? So might as well swap to a forged piston (CP etc)
    2) another way to control the high comp + knock, would a methanol injection kit helps?? As it would increase the ron rating and allow the piston to cool down and avoid the dreaded piston melt.
    Your data seems to coinside with why most f30 b48 owner have piston melting issue after flashing bootmod3

    • @Reaper_f30
      @Reaper_f30 5 месяцев назад +1

      Hi there maybe i can help on this mate
      Honestly if your gonna change pistons best to go forged and keep your motors stock ratio
      Less stress and you dont need a MAP just to drive it normal
      Also the higher compression of this engine will actually engage a better faster turbo spool
      So if you upgrade the turbo also, then the lag will not be to bad and youll make alot of power
      In regards to methanol kit i see your thinking its a good one, alternatively you could upgrade the air intake manifold better for cooling also

    So I had a discussion with navardi tuned, regarding the B48A vs the b48B, as i myself have a 2018 B48A, I was informed that the only thing making the b48A more lspi prone/ damage, is the Compression ratio itself not the material used or shape, in fact the material and shape of the b48A was inferior more so on the early b48A versions, specifically the mini coopers, now im not sure if this is more europe based information but ive basically been informed that my 2018 b48A is the same material and quaility as a 2016 - 2019 b48B engine, and the limiting factor for tuning in this case is the compression ratio. in which case if i wish to push it into the 320BHP to 350NHP(300whp) area, the tune just need to more focused on the fuel quality and careful output of torque based on rpm and gear essentially. would love to know your thoughts on this info I've come across.

    Just out of curiosity, are there any differences INTERNALLY between the b46/b48? I can’t find solid info online. If I can find a way to quiet down my vert interior I could play around with the car since I already have it.

    Hi!
    I have a 330e with B48B20B engine and i’m currently tuned with MG flasher.
    I would always drive my car in xtraboost (sport+ for hybrid) so it would always sit around 2k rpm + but after getting a straight pipe exhaust I wanted to keep the revs down therefore using sport individual. When this happened I’ve noticed the car starts hesitating when it’s cruising on 8th gear and 1200ish rpm. After some research I’ve figured out it is LSPI and now i’m worried. How can I make sure that my engine is still healthy and is it actually some knock happening in the engine or is it ECU’s way of protecting the engine by cutting the fuel when it notices it is getting too hot therefore the hesitation. I would really love it if you could please enlighten me a bit.

    Incredible knowledge. I would love to see a series on the N55 like how to build it out for reliability and torque. I have n55 x5 and it’s a great platform and want to tune it and build it right for towing. Like small boats or camper. But I want to build it to have low end power and efficiency. The alpina b3 uses the old turbo set up from the e90 on an n55 with bigger intercooler and upgraded fuel pump. And it made 404 hp on 93. It’s all stuff pulled off the n54. I wonder is that set up ideal for better low end and over all driving performance. As most of us want the best out of car and not looking to set new land speed records. I thought this route would be best then something like big single turbo and I would want to reduce lag for a x5. And I would assume that would be best for even an x7 with the b58 and make it a real contender against the v8s. But without the issue that they offer.

    • @acarpenter1332
      @acarpenter1332 6 месяцев назад

      Sounds like you might have an F series X5. One option is to “cross grade” to an f15 diesel X5. The torque for towing is amazing. MPGs are great too. Full transparency, one thing to watch is timing chain once miles go over 125k. AFAIK that’s the only weak spot. Way less bearings being spun vs the n55! Though lately I have seen more than one n55 X5 with 200k plus miles, so maybes it is all about owner driving habits and OCIs.

And he knows about the chain there is an upgraded part for it. But the main issue with the n57 is oil leaking on valves cover in the rear because it drips right on the DPF and when it goes into regeneration it can catch fire. So deletes are a must.

      @@acarpenter1332 yeah deleting the emissions crap is ideal that is the only major issue with almost every diesel engine. Now it’s hard because if you don’t live in state that cares go for it and delete that crap off but I would be careful if they do and delete it and keep the old parts and keep it stealth under the hood. I would even put a larger aftermarket cat on like a high flow one just to keep the smell down and don’t straight pipe it because it will be to noticeable and places like California that huge fine. Cops have huge boner for busting people with any modified car. But they couldn’t care less if you rob or kill anyone. I would highly recommend for your n57 get a catch can, second get an oil bypass kit installed. This will save your our engine from soot in the oil. The stock filter isn’t enough the bypass kit will keep the oil like new. And third a water methanol injection kit but you can run straight water. Snow performance has a two stage one so it can come on with one nozzle at the turbo exit, and one for higher boost at the intake manifold. You will make clean power easily gain like 10% power and better economy. Because they lower the air density like crazy. But those 3 things and a full delete you can make over 450 whp on stock turbo and injectors.

    So for my fellow 320i owners or 330e if thats what you got, seems in order to mitigate any piston damage if you want somethung like a ipos450 is
    Fyi im talking in the instance of running 99 octane pump gas
    A) GET YOURSELF A B58 TU PUMP and a custom tune, you wont have access to the full 5000 psi, still the b48s 3000, BUT when your at high speed and rpm, you'll be ensuring the volume of fuel being pumped as your not near the limit of the stock one
    Again the pump does not allow more fuel to go in, but ensures the max volume of 3000 psi is more achievable
    I wouldnt tune it at this stage above 290WHP -300 (340bhp - 360) and 480nm torque
    Keeps psi under 21 or below on stock turbo
    Hopefully tuner tunes good timing
    B) FORGED pistons first for saftey
    C) new turbo
    400 to 450 whp 320i or 330e more than enough considering how light the car is.

I'm not sure how a garage/tuner can confirm a car is "more than enough". The B58 is quicker in every scenario which renders your comments like tuners favour it for anything wrong too. They dont, at least not the ones worth their salt. The 4pots aren't as well good, definitely wont put out as much power or last as long. Something else you might not know is that the weight distribution of these cars was based on a 6cyl (Almost perfect 50-50). The 4cyl has a worse, more front weighted, unsteer led bias. 1.2% more in fact, so while marginally lighter, the balance of the car gets worse. Go figure.
