Bro, so my 2013 528i is full bolt ons (FMIC: Wagner performance intercooler), MST charge pipe, boost pipe, VRSF catless down pipe, straight pipe w/ a Vibrant straight thru resonator, aluminum inlets/outlets, MST cold air intake, MST turbo inlet pipe, Turbosmart BO valve, Eldor coil packs, NGK 2 step cold spark plugs and genuine BMW index 12 fuel injectors. Had my car dyno'd 2 weeks ago it it came out to 365 hp to the wheels. I totally agree with you that when adding any type of aftermarket tunes w/o taking care of and be vigilant of the necessary maintenance, especially if you want to run that much boost. I found out the hard way prior to adding all of my upgrades, I foolishly tuned my car w/ a BM3 stage 1 and xHP stage 2. Let me tell ya, It didn't last one night!!! On that night, I attempted to do a 5k-6k pull and fried my stock spark plugs, coil packs and even messed up my ECU. I had to wait over 2 mos for a new stock ECU before making my upgrades. Now, my car run crazy quick/fast for an N20. 365hp to the wheels & 355 pounds of torque w/ a BM3 Stage 2+ E30 MAP and an xHP stage 3 trans flash WITHOUT any significant issues. This is an example that it can be done. You'll just have to do it the right way every step of the way...
Wow man, Im sorry for the headaches you endured with all that but yeah definitely highlights why you cant necessarily just toss on every bolt on with a fat tune and expect the stock internals to last. Good stuff though man, live and learn and keep turning that wrench
@@ConnorLee thanks for the support man. I seriously trip out on all the so called “experts” who say that the n20 can’t do this or can’t do that as I keep proving them wrong with this build. Currently, I think that I’m pretty closed to being maxed out but I do have one more mod before callin it a day. And that is a BMW n20 MHI TD04 20T Big Turbo kit. As of now, I’m 365 to the wheels and with this kit, I can’t wait to see what the numbers will be. I’ll keep ya posted. If you wanna see the n20 build, you can follow me on IG @lilbambam2013 btw, I also have a pretty cool 2011 335is n54 build as well. Regards 🙌🏼
You need those spark plus and packs for stage 2?
I'm getting basically the same stuff minus those but I'll add those to the list
I planned on all the same mods for my 328i but I think ima try for the 335 then do mods. I'm not 100 percent on that idea but I think that's the way I wanna go. That V6 sounds right up my alley.
9Milli GoHard the v6 is a force to reckon with! I’d get one too if it was in the cards!
@@ConnorLee yup, that's the consensus
@@9MilliGoHard Happy modding man and good luck with the new whip!
Isnt the 335 an inline 6?
@@KiNG-fr5ib Yes
I actually like the non M-sport front end. Depends on the color though.
Same, all slammed on the ground, it looks amazing imo
Hi is it worth buying i see a 2015 328i nicely modded has 144k miles guy wanted 12,500 but we negotiated to 10k his spec
Brand new brakes all around
Brand new tires all around
BC RACING suspension
Charge pipe and Boost pipe
Cold air intake
Intercooler upgrade
New battery
Brake flush done
Coolant flush done
F80 M3 upper and lower control arms
Spark plugs and coils done
Is it worth it or no?
Lots of cool parts, I’d prefer a stock car to build up myself. Totally up to you though
Nice car man! I have a 2013 328i as well , it’s stock , just passed 100k mi. What kinda price range am I looking at for suspension (coil overs or springs?) bags seem pretty pricey. Also for an exhaust and intake? Super clean ride man. Take it easy.
coilovers will run u around 700+ me personally I would go with BC BR series coils there great and around a price of $1110. If you're on a budget H&R Sport or Super sport springs are good and around 200-350. The supersports will drop the car more than the sports itself.
Great video bro! 😂😂 since owning the car in October, I’ve done the exact same mods in the same order so far as you. 100% worth it all
F30 Ho that’s awesome man, then you exactly what I’m talking about 👍🏼
What’s your hp at?🤔
Great video! Thanks for sharing my question. I'm dynoing my car on the 20th and I'll let you know my numbers. We gotta get together soon!
fate_f30 definitely man and maybe we can do a dyno day at some point together!
fate_f30 👍 can’t wait bro. Let us know I’m very curious. Hopefully 300whp. I’ll be doing a stage 2 to my bmw 328i aswell. Love the insta page.
Hey bro is this car cheap to maintain thinking of getting one
Auto Trimmers it is cheap if you keep up in things and maintain before they break! Always better to spend a little up front than a lot later on!
One word: Yes
Chris Nunez 😂👍🏼
If u have a 4 cyclinder n20 don’t bother the only reason is because u can break the engine they have a timing chain issue. I leave my 2013 f10 alone. I plan on getting and m40i or 540i 2021 next
Hey Man Loved loved you're 328i entire journey kudos to your efforts ! I'm getting mine In next 2 months 2013 model. Could you please tell me first 5 modes to do . Love From India ❤
Thanks Mandar! Cold air intake, tune, exhaust, suspension, wheels :)
I want to get first car as a 2016 328xi SULEV with 40k miles but I can’t find any info about the infamous timing chain issue.
Any advice
Side info
Background:
It comes with the M Package
The only thing I dislike is the black interior and the smaller infotainment screen but I could update it.
Change b4 100k
Mine went out at 112k
I have a 2013 328i xdrive as great build , do you worry about the timing chain guards ? Also you can download the idrive software update on the web and transfer it to a usb flash drive to update it via console port. Then it should tell you artist name and songs if on spotify. Thanks for the great content. The what you should know before buying video was great too. Very true lol not all options always.
Kinda old but did u change the timing chain
Mine went out at 112k
Ay my question was first lol, the answer completely helped. I live in NY and I’m going static rn
Anthony Haykal that’s a really great question man, lots of factors that go into it but mainly maintenance for air. Static can be a lot more forgiving suspension on crazy weather. Thank you for the question!
Im looking into a 2016 328i 76k for 20k$ everything is fine works good, is it worth it?
I have a 2016 328 alpine white red interior 40k miles !!
Great video man. 👍
How much you've spent on your F30? I just want to feel good with your answer 😂
Kevin Rivas never added it up but probably around 7-8k
@@ConnorLee hmmm very interesting haha i spend 4k on 09' 328i 100k miles all good no leaks just needs wheels pretty soon, ill save up for either 335 or m5 good thank God for German Engineering 😀 anyways great set up u got there
About $18k now. No lie. Pics to prove
Christopher Johnson wat dod u do to it?
@@therealgamocorts EVERYTHING...
You probably wont see this but how much horsepower could I get out of this car I understand it's not a 335i and I dont plan on racing hellcats or anything but how much could I get no matter the cost I'm just wondering
with a bigger turbo ad proper tune, id say you could reach up to 320-330
Did u have any clearance issues with the front mount intercooler and have to cut into m sport bumper?
I did not, it actually fit up quite nice but initial install took some finagling to get it snugged up in there.
definitley alot of pros and cons for me. Considering getting a porsche soon and im thinking about just keeping the F30 as a daily and the porsche as the weekend car just because i dont feel like going through the part-out hassle.
Ottomobili I think that’s a great idea! The f30 makes a great daily
Bootmod3 nuff said 🚀
RHD ZOE hahah yeah buddy!
Elevated Media aye woe love your videos no 🧢 but I’m running bootmod3 on my m4 and it’s amazing I’m about to bootmod3 my f30 as well
What year is your 328i??
XxS1l3nTxa1Mx 2013
Elevated Media thanks might buy a 2016 soon
how many miles do you think this car can last
200-250k
How much gains do you get with Bootmod3?
Sai Thor without dynoing my car I can’t really say but they claim anywhere from 35-60 depending on what stage tune and fuel
How much did it cost you to paint the entire m sport kit if you don’t mind me asking?
Vincent Ung I believe it was around 700 for both bumpers and side skirts!
This whole time I thought you had a 320i
💪🏽can’t wait for UC3 Connor!!
Supreme Euro bright and early haha
Yea g20 is not for me either. On my build I went the other way interior first then exterior.
DJ Ranoia driver mods are clutch too so I can understand doing it that way
aero kit for my F30
The Exact Video I Was Looking For Everything I Need To Do And Where To Find You Have It In Bio Thanks Great Video
LVC CREW 🙏🏼 happy to help
Elevated Media thanks
Areo kit for my F30
so im looking to buy a 2016 328i and it have 50k miles im looking to mod it but i dint wanna spend that much money do you recommend it
Thats basically what I have or had when I bought my F30, the rest was history :)
Is ur 328i a xdrive. Because i have the xdrive and i am having trouble trying to get the right wheel size for it so I don’t face problems with the xdrive down the road. U have an suggestions for wheel sizes and tires want a flushed look
Seattle Seahawks yes it is drive! I run a staggered wheel setup and have had no problems with it. It’s 8.5 front and 10 rear x17
I think as long as you like doing it then yes. You could have got a 335i but then you are not getting the gas mileage your 328i is getting.
Agreed and very true on the mpgsss 😎
Amazing content!
Will Gordon Will! Long time no see, hope you’re doing well bud. See you at UC3?
Haven’t been around the car scene that much in the last year due to my new car being stock but you’ll be seeing me way more often . Sent you a question on iG, btw
Why drop the car? U hit potholes and stuff in the road that F up your oil pan and other stuff that cost serious money
Adjustable ride height so I drove at a comfortable height where I didn’t risk mashing anything more than the front lip
Love it man. Nice job. I love my 2013 328i xdrive n20. I love the dual exhaust so I'm doing the m sport all around except I prefer the f80 front bumper (i just hate the dual quads)
So far I've got BC Racing coilovers, VMR 710 18" wheels (18x8.5 & 18.9.5), injen intake, VRSF chargepipe, downpipe, & fmic, jb+, GFB diverter valve, spark plugs, ignition coils.
Still need exhaust with muffler delete and rotors.
Hey bro how's it been? Any problems? Looking for one
@@Alexis-dj8lk get a 335/340 f3x
@@stevenhanna4945 been looking at some 335is and I'm willing to do it just wondering if it's going to last as a daily driver
Plz do not put F80 parts on… disrespect to f80s….
Trying to use the links in the description but none of them are working for me.
They seem to be working for me, which ones weren't working for you?
Always worth it
Noxi Savage 🤙🏼yessir
What type of supercharger kit should i uesd for my 328i 2009?
R should I go turbo?
aero kit on my f30
Did you drop close to 11k?
On mods? Never truly added it up. Would you guys be interested in a video on a full breakdown?
@@ConnorLee for sure
I would love a non m3 body kit. No one makes one!
Steve A how do you mean? European Society Motorsports makes for the F30: m sport oem replica bumpers, m3 style bumpers, and even a really cool m2 style bumper.
Elevated Media there are a bunch of companies that make m sport kits. I don’t want a m sport or m3 kit, I want something different. Half of the BMW’s driving around have a m sport kit. Go to a car show and every single car has it.
Steve A ohhh yes very tru! If you come across a new bumper please let me know 😂✌🏼good luck tho
Arrow kit for my f30 328i.
Fuck ya it’s a great platform
He’ll yeah it was worth it!!!
Love the intro
Senorpadrote g thank you!
I bought a 328 08 for 4k had 200k miles but brand new engine in it, transmission blew out n replaced it with one that has 130k miles. Tranny swap was 1000$ in total should I sell it or keep it if I sell it how much interior 10/10

You dam right it was I did mine

Henry Johnson yes you can definitely get burble from stage 1! I did stage one and then jumped to stage 2
@@ConnorLee ok cool thanks man! im excited for my tune if i ever i get this charge pipe installed lol
Henry Johnson all in good time hahaha happy modding!
