    Please don't worry about the hate comments. There are a lot of people who are dependent on you for their own N52 to shine in the future. There are only a handful of people who are working on these N52s and you are one of them engineers what u are doing will make our way to 500 wheel inshallah in the future. Love what you are doing and your work ❤️

      @@ayaansayeed425 hey thanks man I appreciate hearing that it’s hard pressing forward especially supporting a wife and 3 kids means I gotta use alot of scrap yard parts and fabricating but it shows my kids hard work and determination pay off not 😎 many ppl are about the n52 but I’m way to deep in the rabbit hole to get out now 😆. I’ve got lots more to come I’m glad these videos are helping the n52 community 👍 my goal is to break the 600whp mark reliably to thrash this car at some drift events.

    Love the content. I have a 06 330i and want to turbocharge it as well. Keep up the videos man. I would rather watch info from a guy like you in a normal shop making things happen on a real budget. I like the fact you're sticking with the n52. Ive read up on them having noticeable limitations but rarely see anything where someone is eyeing ways to eliminate them. Usually seen as lesser than compaired to the other bmw na 6s since the n54 is available. I even considered doing a n54 bottom end on the 52 head if i ran into issues. Glad to see someone pushing the envelope and keep the 52 and make it more reliable with boost.

      Thanks I appreciate the support it’s been a long road of learning so far but I’m glad these are helping out the n52 community I’ve got a ton more videos to make on different subjects for more boost like the need for gapping piston rings, the benefits of meth injection I’ve also got an oil cooler going in as well. I was thinking of getting the n54 crank and rods and keep the n52 bottom end keep it more pure n52 I try to avoid using anything n54 because if I use the n54 block with pistons and rods I mise well put the n54 head on so I’m looking for ways around that 🤔

    Is the pistons cast or forged? Looks little cast for me in the video. I am excited to know how this works out when you are up and running the engine for some boost. Thank you for doing n52 content ❤🎉

      Hey thanks for the support not alotta n52 content on there and I find the stuff that is there dosent explain much so I’m glad I can help the n52 community add power 😎 and as for your question the pistons are cast not forged but the stock rods are forged aluminum not cast so I’ll run the stock rods to see how they hold up 🤷‍♂️ from factory the n52 comes with cast pistons and forged rods so these are the same material as stock pistons just piston rings are placed differently on the new piston that’s how they lower the compression.

    • @rumrunnersracing
      @rumrunnersracing  2 месяца назад +1

      Pistons are cast aluminum like factory but stick rods on n52 are forged aluminum from factory so I’m going to test the limits on those with the new rod bearings in the kit

  • @sujsjsnsn
    @sujsjsnsn 2 месяца назад +1

    some n52s use more massive connecting rods than these. probably better to put those. you can recognize them by the expanding rod at the bottom

    • @rumrunnersracing
      @rumrunnersracing  2 месяца назад +1

      What n52 uses bigger rods? I was looking into n54 rods but no one seems to know if they fit the n52 crank 🤷‍♂️ a lot of this is uncharted territory

      @@LapDeleted nope that’s with a fully stock un opened engine this time around I added lower compression pistons and opened the gap from .013 to .023 for this 18-20psi setup. These cars should be able to run 7-10psi no issues with proper fueling a good tune and decent intake air temps .

      @rumrunnersracing  2 месяца назад

      I wanna try to shoot for a semi reliable 600whp the cars made that power before on the dyno but we had to stunt the tune a bit due to intake air temps it would be heat soaked by the second run and start to pull timing so this time around I’ve made ALOT of changes to squeeze out some extra power

      @@SLVR2-z8y with proper fueling and supporting mods I would say 12psi wouldn’t hurt it if you wanna play safe without gapping piston rings if you gap rings and your looking to thrash it and want all the ponies 14psi with meth injection I would call a safe bet with a reliable tune you could push more but your head studs will be the next issue going past 15psi

    • @rumrunnersracing
      @rumrunnersracing  2 месяца назад

      with proper fueling and a rising rate fuel pressure regulator and a tune it will run 7psi all day on the stock motor without opening the motor to gap piston rings, You could thrash on it all day and you would be fine at 7psi when you get 10-12psi your in the yellow area where u want to open the motor and gap the piston rings for the added boost and you want great cooling for intake air temps and dissa flap will snap off at this pressure inside the intake manifold so it needs to be deleted if you wanna run 10-12psi
