Anddddd FINALLY! The Supercharger is in! Thanks to the team at VFEngineering for this awesome experience. This is only stage 1, so stay tuned for what's to come! Check out all the links the description to see more about the parts on my car, along with the build here - instagram.com/spencerberkegarage. MUCH LOVE! -SB
Without a doubt add the cooler. Can you tell me what injectors they used ?
How high does this thing rev Jesus
Spencer Berke do they tune Mini Cooper ?
Anthony Michael or forget the cooler and go e85 and throw a smaller SC pulley on there. I'm running e85 with 11psi w/ Vortech V1 on my S52 and making more power than this current setup.
I have an e92 with the VF650 kit. Cooling is the #1 issue with our cars being supercharged. If you'd like any advise or have any questions you could message me @ e92_colton on Instagram. I've learned alot with a few years of ownership.
Here we go again with the “my tuned 335i” is just as good/better/faster than the m3. Let’s just settle this now: you can make any car faster than the other, all it takes is piles of money. The 335 is a great car- and yes, a tune and bolt-ons will keep up with the m3 / out run an m3 in a drag race etc. Let’s not get carried away with the “throw some coil-overs on the 335” and she out tracks the M3... not happening. Your $7500 335i with bolt-ons and racelands still handles like a bathtub full of water compared to the m3. On a side note- a tuned 335d is a Boss as well. Torque is insane. Anywho - keep it real.
Thanks for the reality check....Real knows Real !
too many idiots with 335 fantasise with the M badge
Don't get me wrong I love M3's but spending many many $$$ on a supercharger to get marginally more power than a half turned 335i doesn't sound like a good time to me! As far as your thoughts on the handling comparison between the two, other than an LSD, a 335i with the same power as an m3 would probably do decent enough against an m3 on a track.
Yes while the 335i does indeed not handle nearly as well as a m3 a 135i would in my opinion keep up and handle a lot better. It even has the m3s dct automatic transmission and same n55 or n54 motor. Also I am not suggesting the 135 is better then a m3 but saying the 135 I think would have a better fighting chance.
335 kids are the people who regret not spending the extra 15k on an m3 and cope by rationalizing in absurd ways. I’ve owed plenty of m3’s and have been beat by plenty of 335i’s. At the end of the day I still drive an m3
My man if you want flames you gotta take off that primary cat.
thats it?
@@anoncanon1100 primary yes but secondary too for even bigger flames
@@parsasalmasy i took off the the back cats but i dont think i have flames. i still need to pass inspection so ima probably do that first
@@anoncanon1100 even with all 4 cats deleted u won’t shoot flames until u get a tune. Those 2 are the key to flames.
Incredible how well Nik has done after moving to US. I remember he started out with Nik Saran Racing doing vr6 conversions into mk2 golfs in the 90s.
Hands down one of the cleanest and best upgraded M3 I've seen always love seeing your vlog!
Dude... thank you. Thank you for putting up this awesome detailed video that had the guy from VF explaining all the components of the supercharger kit. It gave me a greater understanding of everything and tickled my engineering bone. -Scotty
Hey how many miles did you have on it when you supercharged it?!
Definitely go back to the dyno on a cooler day. Even with stock primary cats your numbers are quite low, but I think this is mainly due to pulled timing from the heat. I had an ESS 550 kit (basically the same thing as VF 540) a couple years ago and put down 450whp on stock exhaust. Even with that I was disappointed as stage 1 kits should be putting down about 470whp with cats and 490-500 without. I'd be very interested to see how much you make on a 60-70 degree day. Cool video!
Ilya M was that kit on a BMW 550i
No, E92 M3.
I like how it looks clean and has that factory look to it.
new exhaust sounds much better imo
It sounds raspier
I think I am sold on that exhaust. You really need to take the stock Xpipe out, it really wakes up the car. Mine is hitting the 400rwh with E85 tune and FBO. Going with the ESS 625 soon. Enjoy the car! Mine will be at 90k soon.
you must be filling up every 125miles on E85
damn VF is doing things bro ......and the guy is so chill about what he does lol ....spencer the car looks dope but we gotta get a new wrap going now that the aggresive supercharger is in there ....something MEAN & CLEAN !
Best M car ever!!! Nice job, perfect color, perfect Wheels, love it.
love the e90s so much more than the e92s they just look better in my opinion
Me too 😀
Me too there pretty rare in the uk. But I’d prefer an f80 all day.
I whole heartedly disagree, e92 all the way, and I’ve owned both. My e90 was the lci too, still prefer the e92.
And it's easy to put the kids in the back too
ditto
I put a bigger turbo on my f80. Stock from factory its 330 or something like that. And now with the e85 tune. Im at 450 on a cool day. Just waiting for these nights to get colder in san diego!
16:28 ABSOLUTLY GLORIOUS NOISE!
So this is why people say the e9x 335 is better
the 335i isnt better its shit compared to a m3 ... the only good thing is the n54 but the rest of the car is shit compared to a m3
Yep.. FBO + OTS Tune for E30 = about the same horsepower and 150+ more torque..
@@xCobi calm down. People say its better in terms of making power. M3 is better, but 335 is far from shit.
@@ricky8600 i had both ...... 335 is shit compared to m3 bro. The 335 gave me shit for days and i bought her new. The M3 50 000k later and sold it for a x5. biggest mistake of my life im getting myself a e92 again she flys
@@hanretheart1968 e70 with sport package is still pretty nice. The steering is way better and more firm ride than f15..
Man I've been waiting for a new video to come out! Thank you lol. Car sounds awesome looks great and way to go finally supercharging it
I had a vf engineering’s kit back in 2001 on my vw golf vr6 loved it
Nice but i thought the numbers would be a lot higher
HEKTIC458 So do most e9x M3 people before they buy one.
It’s stage 1.
did you think this was a C63 AMG video??
And just take a look at the torque curve. That thing is flat as a pancake. Perfect Linear engine.
Probably 91 Octane since its Cali.
That sounds nasty bro, lol I saw the comment about the guy with the 335i and I do have a 335i but I give respect where respect is due….beautiful car man. Very well done
Your car looks AMAZING BROTHER and the mods you have done still mskesvthe car look very classy
The M sounds damn good!
How does supercharging effect the rod bearing issue?
😂😂😂😂😂😂
That baby flame fart at the end!!! At least you got one...🤷♂️😂😂😂
That amg gtr belongs to garage goals that’s actually real gold on the front there
Nice video Spencer. And Nik explaining the setup is nice touch.
That's some pretty big gains yo, those drivetrain losses are massive tho, kinda weird like 25% probably 530hp at crank, dope
T-shirt and toque is right up there with socks and sandals to me.
Like many ppl have commented here, these numbers seem little low than normal. Ppl with fbo including pulleys and tune are making 400+ whp. I’m no tuning expert but I’m just curios as to why the numbers are so low. Perhaps cuz he still got the primary cats and not test pipes
why were your initial horsepower readings so low? Ever figure out what was up with it?
I was lead to believe M3s have 400 hp stock easy
Before instal supercharcher you should check why do you have only 318 hp. I have an m3 too, one of the vanos was the problem but i had 357 hp, but 318 is really bad. Good LUCK !!!
I live in Orange County too. That is a beautiful M3. Do you still have that car? I have a 2009 E92 thar turbos finally went out on. Getting new vargas turbos installed tomorrow. I love BMWs except for all of the plastic parts they use :)
This is the same series engine with the rod bearing issue right? How will it handle the extra loads if at stock power they are already failure prone? Asking for trouble or planning a summer of fun and a quick resale? Just wondering....
TreyKing63 he had them replaced but even then as long as your car is less than 60,000 miles your stock bearing should hold the only reason its an issue is people dont warm up their cars properly even tho the bearings are the weak point of this engine it just comes down to preventative maintenance
@@ThatTURK1 100% Correct!
Ehm, shouldnt a stock m3 gave around 420hp? Why did yours get 320?
Awesome M3! how has the reliability been after the rod bearing job and SC kit?
In your review later om can u include the total cost + mpg stock m3 vs supercharged m3
Deserves a thumbs up just for the first 2 minutes alone
Just order in the 640 VF kit for my E93..
Test Pipes and Short Shifter .. OMG My shit is gonna be LOUD..
This car looks amazing.. All that supercars behind and still i want this more than these ones 12:43
You can make those numbers FBO N/A... sick build none the less
Is 318 rwhp normal for these cars? Seems low. I was expecting 340-350.
Car Authority stock should be at least 350 wheel
Its says 318 at the engine, not even the wheels
@@rickybrambila9646 I think it's 414hp at the crank.
Shitty California 91 oct. Didn't help.
The safety peramiters in these cars makes them reduce extreme amount of timing on dyno.
What wheels are you running? The car is a beauty.
This whole day would have felt euphoric as f@#k!
im running the vf620 and i love it!!!!
What is wrong with your M3? Stock M3's with 240e dme dyno at 360whp stock. Your car dyno'd at 320whp???
recently raced a V8 m3 with my clk55 amg, interesting results smoked it through the gears from onramp to about 80...top end had me by about a car or two and I just was out of breath...broke it off in mexico at around 1.5 x 100...i only have 360hp and about that much torque, where as he had i assume 450 and 290 torque but revs to about 8k vs my 6.5? maybe 7 but it starts losing power up there. oh and my car's an 04
Congrats on the VF ENGINEERING supercharger Spencer! Beast.. Hope to see it around on Harbor Blvd soon.
Side note: I believe that was a Mercedes AMG GTS actually
Popcorn open. soda in cold glass...just waiting for the sound of the rod bearings exploding and exiting the exhaust in fine german metal chunks..... good popcorn too
isn't the stock m3 genrates 420hp or am i wrong ?
At the crank maybe
Rated at 414hp at the crank.
It will probably be ZERO soon enough after it blows up. I wouldn't mod mine like that it's a high strung engine right from the factory and 12 mpg doesn't appeal to me.
What if you use high octane gas ?
Bo McGillacutty how is it going to blow up? It’s tuned and the rod bearings were changed before being supercharged.
Sounds soooooo goooood😍
F**king sick bro! Sounds possessed with the valves open.
What did you do with your IPE old system please let me know if you still have it ??? Thanks Spencer
so dope!
Just curios how much it costed you the supercharger and kit and to install it ?
Wait...did I see that correctly? He got only 434 whp after all that work???
And look at that torque number. LOL
It’s a supercharger not a rocket stage, 499-520HP at the crank is a pretty damn good improvement from bolting on a vortech supercharger. Win the simple and cheap swap of a pulley and he will have impressive gains.
Lmao 16:41 my captions said [Applause]
People in this comment section love to hate on this car. The E90 M3 is such a beautiful machine id take it over a 335 anyday. Obviously 335s are cool but id rather want the dynamics and the v8 that comes with owning this M3. Hp isnt everything to some
Hey Spencer, are you going to make a ‘Worth It’ video type deal on the S/C? Got a E92 M3 and really contemplating if I should S/C or stay NA. Thanks!
Is that 434.22 at the wheels cause that's a good gain with a average loss on rwd your looking at 520hp at the flywheel
I've looked at other e90 m3 dyno runs at the wheels and this all tallys up
:)
And how can you compare 6 cylinders to the roar of a v8? No replacement for displacement certainly for the ears anyway
hello pleasure Nicolas !!! I wanted to know if you could tell me where you bought the kit for the M3 which is very interesting
Your stock/light mod numbers were 314? Seems like a stingy dyno. The deltas are all that’s important. Sounds awesome.
That thing sounds brutal!! I love it
Overall how much was from all the work the supercharged+exhaust +labor?? I'm curious in doing that also to my e90 m3
Congrats you Hit the 100.000!!!!
hey Spencer do u know of anyone that can swap my automatic trans on my 2011 m3 to a full manual trans please let me know
Green aventador! Super charger! Awesomeness!
No need to replace the fuel pump?
WHY DIDNT YOU GET THE HARROP POSITIVE DISPLACEMENT SUPERCHARGER
Can you super charge a e90 twin turbo? Or would you have to delete current turbos? How does that work, or does it even?
the car comes N/A from factory NO TURBO
Why'd you get a four door M3? Do you have to pick up the kids after the meet?
4 doors 3 series have always been a little lighter than the coupes
Spencer the VF engineering url you have forwards to a Law firm site. Remove the "s" in "https" and that should fix it.
How does a high revving, small displacement v8 have such a flat torque curve?!
Just curious, wonder how much that costed you. Sounds very good.
hw did you do cooling?
Have you got any additional cooling mod upgrades, such as bigger oil coolers?
What color blue is that?? I’d love that on my e46!
did you have to upgrade the clutch?
YESSS the video we’ve been waiting for!!!
Are those wheels 19's or 20's ?????
Sparco seats and role cage in your daily driver?
Hows this M3 pushin 318 stock? Should be way more
Is it normal for the car to have black smoke after supercharging it?
Any reasons why you didnt go with ess?
No tuning required?
Isn't this engine 420hp stock?
I don't understand, it's supposed to be 420hp standard, how was your only 318? And barely breaks the standard figures eith an entire supercharger on???
318 to the wheels. At the crank is where the 420 hp number comes from.. Still pretty low baseline atw hp numbers. It's normal to have 15 to 20 % drivetrain losses from crank to wheels
Where can I buy just the bracket ?
Hi, what size are your wheels?
Holy crap! That's loud.
I personally would take the m3 and sell the motor and have that pay for a big turbo N54 swap. But then I could of just brought a F80 M3. So getting a 335i M Sport is a good trade off of both.
I love my M4 but wish BMW put a small V8 in it. The exhaust note is just not right for me.
I got the same vortech blower, 👌 👍.
Pulley swap time.
C6 ZR1 had a clear hood
I’m liking his bmw more and more
@ 05:20 does one else believe that this upgrade heat exchanger inserted in this 'rear opening door' should be a standard component? It's is how a supercharger makes serious power. I think he's having a larf and he seen you coming. Look that phrase up mate.
hey,what color is your car?
I think since you didn’t use a cooling kit( not smart in California) you should have at least added a water methanol kit with out a tune
Where did you buy the start/stop buttom for youre m3?
very nice Is your car lowered ?
Please put the black rims back on
So In other words buy a 335i. Lol
Lol damn right, m3's have the looks and a super aggressive handling but you can get much more power of a n54 with less than $1500 on it after proper maintenance
Own a tuned one.... love it
I mean it's not only about power. What about that 8500rpm V8 symphony?!
David Mitchell And thanks to the 250 ft lbs of torque you'll rev to 8500 and feel like you're not even moving 😂
Oh trust me I get! The sound is killer. But nothing is worse then sounding like a badass and getting completely owned by a anything with basic bolt ons lol
