5 Things Your BMW Desperately Needs Before Increasing Power - E90 335i
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 9 июл 2024
- One of the first things people want to do when they first purchase a BMW is increase the power. I mean that's what I wanted the minute I purchased my E90 335i. Chasing big power on most modern BMWs is so easy thanks to software related tunes and rather affordable after market performance parts. But before you even think about going that route, there are 5 things you should consider doing to your car. In today's video I'll share what those 5 things are based on my personal experience over the last few years.

I'd say that the very first thing you should do before putting more power into your car is safety. Brakes, suspension, stabilizers, bars. Keeping your car under control is way more important than increasing it's power.
Just replaced and modified my suspension. Before I add power .
ALWAYS power first
Appreciate the fact you got straight into the list and didn't waste any time!
I keep seeing kit for power. They always put the intercooler, last on the list. Solely for a bigger turbo.
This is a hot running engine as it is.
Personally, I would like to upgrade my cooling system just to increase reliability.
Maybe save some hoses and lines.
... Better cooling should be first and foremost.
I swear I see a new "things your BMW needs to be reliable" video all the time from you Christian 😂😂😂
When my radiator finally blew, I thought the same thing and got that CSF radiator. Only a couple hundred more and it's a shiny upgrade.
Man always a treat to get to watch this amazing build and definitely a very informative piece as well 👏
Keep these vids coming! Loving the tips for N54 reliability and power!
I'm soo glad that u preach maintenance. One of the important things alot of ppl over look
Spot on information. That's my motto as hard as it is as tough as it is some days I always have to tell myself maintenance then performance.
Congrats on 300k man!Ik i'm late but there's a massive difference in time between my country and USA.
Actually very impressed with your knowledge most people overlook the coolant system Super super important .
Number one thing your BMW needs before increasing power: Competent driver.
Or else you might end up tangled in a fence.
Like a certain someone lmao
😂😂 damn yall wrong fa that
@@renderyours510 yooo might not have been his fault. Unfortunate event anyways
pensacola blvd lol
Your foul for that cmon man
I recently learned from a shop I follow that putting a sub-radiator really helps.
Just went stage 1+ yesterday , FBO e92 335i and jeez it's quick🤣 600Nm at 17psi 😳
Straight to the point, really like this video
Very helpful video. I love the maintenance recommendations. Researching Bmw ownership lead me to this video. Thanks a bunch. I’m less concerned about buying a used one now.
Huge help! Appreciate the knowledge!
On my way to mods for my 08' E93 335i!
So far I've done all this maintenance... Alternator, injectors, eldor coils, ngk 2 step spark plugs, service drop top seals x2 per year, oil change, serpentine belt/pulleys, transmission service with new mechatronic seals, coolant service, akebono brake pads/zimmerman rotors all around, metal mickey mouse coolant flange, front windshield molding, air filters, brake fluid flush, & differential service! Just chilling now until the next thing breaks 😁
What I like to hear! 🙏🏼
Hey bro 😎 Like always very informative video !!
Caught a flashback to when I did the stage 2 mhd flash….and immediately blew the silicone outlet from mmp….immediately. Maintenance is the way to go for sure…and quality parts
Love this channel 👍🏾
That’s wild- didn’t know you were running shoup’s tunes on your rigs not that he was a big name in the community - that’s who tuned my current n54 and it’s been nothing but incredible
Glad to see this video today. Couldn't find anything good to watch.
Great video bro but u forgot about the Chargepipe 🤷🏽♂️
Ong if you haven’t replaced your charge pipe your at risk even stock boost😂
Greta content Homie 🤟🏼🤟🏼
nice vid bro
Just got an E93 thanks for the tips!
convertible gang!
you are right bro real talk
Ayo Christian! Now iHave 2BMW's since i subscribed to your channel. E36 318is & x5 4.8i
Yessirrr. More Powahhh baby
Loving the e90 Christian !
Thanks dude!
The original rad and intercooler look so cute compared to CSF/VRSF ones.
I can absolutely confirm a Stage 1 VHD tune makes a lot of difference, l do have a DCI and VRSF charge pipe. Sooooo far so good, done some stuff: new sparks, filers (oil, air etc), new belts and pullies.
Coils seem fine atm and all seals are good, oil filter housing is just starting to go so that's being done in the next 3 months or earlier if it starts to become a real gusher lol
New steering rack and Xenon bulb upgrade being done tomorrow looking forward to how tight she's going to feel :D
Christian I think you should also mention using GOOD oil in your car and also changing it every 5,000 miles not what BMW recommend which is a ludicrous 12,000 miles!!
Remember one phrase!!! - Oil is cheap, engines are not...
I've recently done another oil change on my car, the last one was done Nov 2020 and the stuff that came out wasnt very nice, so decided to do another change with Castrol EDGE M oil and the car just purrs its amazing how quite it is for what's under the hood/bonnet.
If you push your car at all, you should change it every 3k miles. May or may not be overkill
Don't seem like bigger vac line necessary, using forge bv kit. Zero back fluttering on turbine wheels. DTC AZA red leather black suede tri stitches, top m stripes. Dinan S2 can ECU tune
Really great Video. I have a e46 320d for 10 years now and I want to also tune it. Just don't know where to start.
I'd not do any mods to m47 other than just a retuning. Better get 330d because M57 is the one engine you want if you want to upgrade turbos, intercooler etc.
Have you did the pcv valve install yet
With Motiv-Motorsports port injection is way safer now. Plus no more walnut blasting! ReFlex: Advance I/O Integration
Do you mind if I buy your car when it's done?🤔😂 Well done my dude!!!
Just replaced my oem radiator from fcp car has never been cooler ive never seem my car this cool
Thanks!
You're welcome!
Should I do inlets?
Turbo blankets?
Maintenance wise on my 2012 535i I have the done the water pump thermostat oil filter housing gasket tensioner belt spark plugs brakes and rotors and turbo coolant lines and I’m at 115k miles what else would u recommend maintenance wise on the car ?.. trying to throw some mods and a stage 1 tune on it …it’s an n55 appreciate advice if U answer my comment bro !!
Can u do any videos about the 2009 bmws 525i xdrives?
what are some good up grads for a 2002 325ci
You should let people know about the crankshaft sealer kit on fcp EURO!!! SAVES ENGINES
Any recommended sites to buy an exhaust for a g30 540i?
What’s up man I’m kinda new to this whole car thing but hear me out…I have a 2007 bmw 335i and I want to get a new exhaust system should I take my car to the shop before buying a system…what should my first step be
Csf n54 radiators are notorious for leaking and blowing. Id recommended finding other ways to cool your n54
Where can I go for a engine out service here in Southern California?
Love your content bro best youtube content creator ever 🙌 love you man!!!!! Keep being you bro i hope you have good news for the frozen ⚫black F10 M5 praying ot good news
🙏🏼
I just bought 08 335i. Im thinking of buying vrsf race exhaust, should i buy downpipes too?
Do these upgrades meet emissions requirements? I live in Colorado, which is basically California standards? On my STi I have straight pipes and have to put on the OEM exhaust every 2 years to pass. Lol
Christian... have you shared any content on upgrading/replacing your fuel injectors for the E90? Any content done on this? TIA
ruclips.net/video/ZQPTDhee640/видео.html
ruclips.net/video/P7RrZy9usps/видео.html
They are particularly covered in both of these videos. On the E93 and E90.
How about the M550i G30? I don’t see anything on your site.
does anyone know if these parts will fit an n52
I have a 03 530i bmw you recommend the same?
I have a quick question is if a 525i can I use the N54 535i/535xi intercooler still or no?

He csf intercooler is not plug n play. Had to trim my radiator support to get some clearance
No issues here. Hell it dropped in easier than the stock coming out. No joke!
These 335i’s will need motor mounts around 80,000-100,000 miles. You can do them yourself. Buy or make the upgraded mounts. Yes I said make. Buy OEM mounts then fill every gap and hole in the mount with polyurethane from a caulking gun. If you build this N54 you will need mounts. When not if.
Hi, I'm looking for the OEM or aftermarket headlight with AFS function with control modules for 2009 E93 335, can you provide the link where I can purchase, thank you.
Any recommendations to gain significant amount of power for an F10 535i MSport?
Currently running a Stage 2 tune along with evolution racewerks chargepipe + downpipe, 2 step colder NGK spark plugs and vrsf Intercooler and radiator
In need of more power lol
buy an m5
If I don't have plans to add speed, would an upgraded radiater and intercooler still be a good move, I've got a 99 so no turbo
No turbo= you have no intercooler
And that is the reason why people think bmw’s aren’t reliable, because they forget a car needs maintenance! and yes the parts are more expensive but last longer!
Depends. BMW is bad at designing gaskets. The ofhg on the N54 needs to changed almost every 3 oil changes because it will start seeping. Same with valve covers. I also don't think the control arms last as long as Chevy or Toyota vehicles for example. High pressure fuel pumps die after 50k miles at best etc etc.
I put 136,000 miles on my E92 335i and it only needed a water pump and OFHG. The valve cover was just starting to seep when I traded it in. Sadly I needed a more efficient practical car so I traded it in for a base VW Golf.
What about reselling
💪🏻🙌🏻💯
Will you ship to South Africa?
This video gave me anxiety.
I want to do all of this and more to my E60...BUT!!!! I really don't want to remove my Catts, or sound crazy-mad aggressive. I've been there, and much like being Static to the point of feeling every Gum Wrapper in the road, that being heard for miles skunch got old for a Sista after a while.
I need the exact combination of Bolt On Performance that's right for me.
Good Stuff, tho!
Keep it stock suspension. Otherwise, as you said, one begins to compromise. My 335 has stock exhaust because I like my intake noise and i don't want an obnoxious exhaust. Get another vehicle to do those things to instead of your daily.
Feeling every gum wrapper is pretty intense 😂
@Christian... I'm currently looking at upgrading my FMIC from a 7" ARM, to one that can integrate easily with the new TURBO either PS2 or Shuenk N55+ (E90 N55). Is the VRSF FMIC still your go to or is there another manufacturer that you would recommend. If you can be vendor neutral that is.. 😂👊🏽 My goals are 500-600; assume that I've done some of the required internals and upgrades.
I'll always be honest regardless! I've rocked only VRSF ones with my BMWs and even before I sold their products and paid with my own money. Never had a bad experience. That said the CSF was is also a great choice and doesn't require different couplers nor do you have to cut anything. Both very adequate for your power goals. So look at it like this. The CSF is easier to install and weighs less (also slightly more expensive) and the VRSF one looks beefy and has more surface area.
@@VehicleVirals thanks for the quick reply and your honesty. I'll be in touch.
Coolant is subjective
N series yes, there is some exeptions.
Please do maintenance. All I did was add downpipes and sense then like three things have gone out
Build it from the rear to the front that's my motto LSD baby.
Hey, so I have a 2010 335i xdrive, I did an Injen short RAM intake, VRSF aluminum charge pipe and MHD stage 1 tune. Looking to do new spark plugs and coil packs soon. I'm a little paranoid with the tune, you think I'm good?? Providing I don't rip on it too much before getting the maintenance done?
how’d it go?
Looking for the csf radiator look quality.
Don’t you have voucher ☺️
Unfortunately no deals on the radiator at the moment. It's their top selling product.
Ordering that radiator for my N55 335 E90 off your site now 😅
Well worth it! Appreciate you 👊🏽
Just got an alpine white e92 335, but now I want a e90 335
I have an e90 335i
If I do not plan to upgrade my the power of my M2 Competition, do you still recommend changing the cooling parts? And should I wait for the stock part to wear a little first?
Even if you're not increasing performance, I always recommend upgraded cooling components simply due to the build quality. You'll also get more consistent power if you were to ever take it to the track or beat on the car in whatever way.
-Cristian
@Vehicle Virals -- What wheels are those on your blue 335i... ?
Titan 7 T-S7 wheels.
Yo wheres the "microscopic surface level"😂😂 3:40
Now I have The typical FBO stage 2+ mhd tune. Do I need a upgraded Radiator even though I'm below big power?
I would recommend it for a piece of mind reliability wise. Also tends to keep the engine temperature down, especially when you're really pushing the car.
🙌🏻🙌🏻
Should not use the Helix overdrive. Just ask wedge
does the rad also fit e60s because i cant find one that says it fits the e60. sad face
Why you never mention bms pi set up 😭
Which ignition coils do you use and recommend?
I used Eldor coils
@@VehicleVirals are those beter than Delphi and Bosch? Those arent very reliable
I used Delphi, great option as well.
@@VehicleVirals alright, im thinking about trying eldor coils
Driving videos!!!
AEM enclosed CAI. Too big, no fit 2013 is firewall wires in way. Swapped for AFE for $200 more same design box slimmer fit near firewall
Low key I’m trying to get my e90 335ix too 700 hp but didn’t know what I should do, maybe PSI can help me with it
id ditch the AWD first. 700awhp is almost impossible if what I heard is correct
@@xantor_ nothings impossible
@@Lonestarcoyote yeah but the transfer case won't hold that amount of power
If you can get some goood front diff you be fine. Thats the weak point. (I dont see many option for front diff) The transfer case can hold 600-700 hp but if you gonna pull hard thats also can blow. I would say to get a rwd if you want push that many hp.
when parts say they work on 335i does that include 335xi? Is that the same thing or totally different? Please @ me
Depends. Shoot me a message via IG @vehiclevirals
Is it bad that I’ve been in the drivetrain malfunction situation with like 4 different bmws now😂
I'm just a diesel mechanic here. How does that radiator cause lower engine temp. 😳
I’m waiting for you to talk about the radio upgrade you did on your 335i, I’ve been looking to upgrade mines too and I was looking to see if you had anything negative to say about it
I do... Don't buy a cheap one. You'll find that it's missing certain features.
@@emilyhofland8219 can you elaborate? What did you get?
Me... None. It's on the list. But... More pressing matters first.
Customers and friends have gotten cheaper ones from Amazon and the software would be missing things. Like for example, the most recent one I've seen. It didn't have the am/fm radio. One wasn't able to check the oil anymore. ...But what is missing, will be different. You can look yourself and see. Check the details closely.
... This will be a $500 drop for you. If you want, what you have, and more. $300 and less, gets you trading for things. And they are well... ... You'll see more freezes and resets on them too.

To bad they don’t make upgraded radiators for the e60 535🤦🏾♂️
Where can I get a aluminum radiator bro, if you really want to help bmw owners, let me know bro.
I have links in the video's description. Appreciate the support!
