I see this one is without the Water Bottle under the brake pedal option 😂
😂😂😂
Great build and beautiful motor but M5 killer, it definitely is not.
You need a bit more then 480bhp for the m5, but i agree the B58 is an M Killer.
I followed this blueprint for my 540i starting 3 months ago. I skipped the charge pipe and left that stock. For intake I went with FTP. Just finished it off with the Remus exhaust last week. The car is a complete animal compared to stock. Thanks for sharing this build.
Have you ever test driven the m340i? If so, what made you go with the 540i?
@@Ahmed-ny1xc I’ve driven a 330. The 5 series is on a completely higher level in terms of comfort and ride quality. It’s also more spacious as a family car.
post about your car please, im trying to get some inspo for my 540 too
What was build cost total ballpark. Also how is the Remus 3 months later. Looking at that and armitryx
@@kisermoore3238 The Remus is absolutely incredible. What’s so good about it is it’s not obnoxious when you don’t want it to be. If you chill, it’s still a comfortable family ride and still rather quiet inside the cabin on the highway. But when you want to have fun, it will come alive for you, especially at 4K and above.
Total build cost is about $7.5K.
VRSF Catless $300
TU HPFP $350
FTP Intake Pipe + High Flow Filter $235
BM3 Stage 2+ $650
xHP Stage 3 $483
Remus Catback + 102mm tips $2268
Ferrada CM2 20” Wheels $3428
Pops and bangs kill the classiness. Keeping my Mhd tune at zero
Lovely car, I would have that as a family wagon any day of the week 😁
Great upgrades and solid base for a project car.
Love those wheels 😍
G31 msport blue calipers Always cooked the brakes with hairy brake fade into corners... until I changed to drilled and grooved pads and Brembo discs. No problems with cracking, squealing, grinding or fading stopping from max to zero all day. insane speeds with full confidence.
I can see a lot of people here either underestimate the hell out of the B58 or don’t know much about them. I mean Toyota puts these in their Supra for a reason. Not like Toyota is going to throw some run of the mill 6 cylinder in them. These engines can handle a lot of power with stock internals!
Absolute beauty! Those BBS alloys 😍. Definitely a unique G30 for sure.
B58 is no joke
Disappointing you didn’t showcase more of the modifications on this car, concentrating on just the power and engine so much is boring. This car has so many exterior and interior modifications that would have been great to showcase and maybe asking the owner probing questions and getting him to show off his pride and joy more as opposed to just drone on about the b58 and the power
I agree. The video could've been cut short due to that reason. Dyno runs, quarter mile times, races, etc. could've done alot for this video if it was about showing us the power.
Not complaining as we got a good video anyway, just thinking of how it could've been improved.
I have one of these and have been desperate to get a bit more noise out of the back of it. The g30 is so refined it’s too quiet in the cabin and mutes the B58. Remus sounds good on this one.
it needs a catback+downpipe for it to sound the way u would want it, i currently have a catback coming soon for my 540
M5 is a different animal. My g30 is tuned stage 2 but when I drive M5, it’s a completely different feel.
Would it still be really quick stage 2 + but rwd with sticky tires
Not many videos on these b58 and x drive deadly combo great video
What size are the the exhaust tips??
Dont need Beakes uppgrade? How does it feel the brakes now?
Tuned B58 in a really fine suit 👏
I need that black xDrive and 540i logo for mine. Where do you get it from?
Great owner!
This is a really good choice if you have a smaller budget. with some good mods you will be close to the M5
Can you send the link to the mirror caps?
what about transmission? is so many HP ok for it?
Got a 600bhp mk7 gti, just bought an identical 540i as a daily. This videos makes me wanna spend money on the 540 now😂
bro has the infinite money glitch
Buy me one bb
Fair play for him going down this route. He could have bought a pretty sorted m5 if you take into account what he’s spent on this
An F90? I don't know about that. To be fair, i'm from the US and the F90's are still quite a bit more expensive unless you compare a new lci 540i to a used F90 with some miles on the clock. Maybe its different in the UK, seems like the prices are better over there all things considered.
@@PapiAndreyyeah f90s are still like 100k
@@saltygrapes-bt7rr Maybe nearly new, I see used ones for $60-70k with 4x-5xk miles, I see one for $57k with 33k miles, but its rebuilt so the value is a little different.
Nothing wrong with rebuilt if it was done properly.
But still, its more than a 540i
No chance, you can get these for 25-30K. M5 is currently 45+
@@PapiAndreyyou’ll never know for sure If it’s rebuilt properly
I was waiting for a video with tuned 540i as im in process of buying one 🎉🎉
Good luck i got one 6monts ago it never fails to impres. Me everymorning
Would be dope have sleeper 5 with this engine
stock turbos ?
Guarantee it won't kill an m5
yeah no logical sense when its only a stage 2 b58
Right, the 540i with only 480hp makes around 9 seconds 100-200 km/h and the M5 only 7 seconds ;-)
Clickbaiiittttt to watchhhhh
Yes it would! An e34 m5 would have no chance 😂😅
It won't kill the M5...yet
Definitely not an m5 killer but sick for sure!
Have him look up the Remnant Omega 65 hybrid turbo kit. Full billet 62mm hybrid turbo kit that’s $300 more than a pure and will make so much more reliable power.
What fuel are u running?
What is stage2+ consist?
'Yes Officer, everything is Stock'
What year is this BMW 540? I was looking for the oldest ones with the B58
I think i found out the 2017 was first with B58
What year is this
🔥🔥🔥
Highway scud missile.
Nice motor. Something a bit different too.
What's the 100-200 km/h ?
The m5 killer was a big big big drag but deffo a nice car for round 25k budget
as long as the M5 is over 20 years old!
What year car is it?
I own one, same color, stage 2 ~460hp the goal is 500+ WHP. But for now im on visual upgrades like new rims, lips and remus exhaust
What color is that?
@@damianmazur7744 bluestone metallic
if your model doesnt come with the upgraded fuel pump, get that and you will definitely make over 500, The High Pressure Tu pump ofc
jeesbox hollidei ei pärjää mun m5 lle 800hv
Sounds cool lol
“Yeah.” “Yeah.” “Oh yeah.” “Oh yeah.” “Yeah.”
Us Stage 2 M5 are running 780whp on E40. Your car would die trying to keep up.😂😂😂
Xdrive+b58 is a deadly combination
Will I be disappointed if I tune my rwd 540i like this ?
@@shelbyhaiketic4212 how could you possibly be disappointed with more power lol.Stage 2+ or stage 3 is perfect for the 540i imo
@@shelbyhaiketic4212 it’ll still be good. With the awd you just get a bit more traction
@@TpriestJr a bit more? Dude you may hope for good weather with a rwd. Otherwise you are no where
I tought for a sec that this was the chrome 540I that chrashed 😂
Taylor saying seated heats got me😂 in a previous video and Alex I may see you at petrol hedonism so maybe you can give me the skoda then? 😅
E39 M5 Killer 😅
Far from a M5 killer, maybe a M140i killer...either way, nice build.
150hp less than the same car and gonna kill it 😂
Also around 400 pounds lighter but doubt it would beat the m5
How is this an M5 killer? About to sell my stage 2 F90 Comp.
Its not.
m5 killer come on now ya outta hand this shit not playing with the m5!
Thinking about selling my MK8 R for a 540 X-drive
It's an m140 in a bigger body, I'll take the M5.
Hows your m5?
@@pb3382 got an m3 and rs3, did look at m5 but abit out of price for me
*M5 KILLER* - faster than a 1988 bmw m5 286bhp 😂
How can it be an M5 killer with much less power and torque 😂
Faster than F10 M5
@lambokiller99 no its not. 0-60 yeah cus its 4 wheel drive but that's it. My old f10 would destroy it
They Talking bollocks
@@DaleSteel yet my little m140i pulls on a f10😅
@jamboSAFC1 what at 130mph? Don't talk wet boy
Do you mean WHP? BHP is horsepower measured at the engine before any driveline losses. If your on an All Wheel Drive dyno i assume your number is Wheel Horse Power.. 480BHP would only be about 400WHP at most.... Beautiful car though!!!!
M5 killer? Yea you just yapping 😂
Why is everyone saying it won’t beat a m5 a stock m5 has 430 whp so it would beat a m5
Well its clear you’re not talking about an F or G series M5.
F10 and F90 M5?
No chance😂
Love the car and have one myself, but it gets obliterated in every way by an M5.
It'll kill an e28 m5
Excuse me ! M5 what? killer ? :P
Just get an M5 CS
40 > M
id have this over a stage 2+ m140i
Completely different price point
Yeah you could do a m140i stage 3 for the price
@@chamaldealwis9 Ofc but they are a lot closer than you think now.
18 plate ~33k miles m140i avg around £23k
18 plate ~33k miles 540i avg around £29k
imo at the moment for around 6-7k extra you're getting a lot more car and the 5's have been less ragged around than the 1's on the market as practically all 140's are driven by asbo's . However, there are a lot of stage2+ builds coming on the market now and I do think the 'already built' m140's are great value. some are really nicely specced, but then ofc you sacrifice reliability.
@@nadeemm429 agreed definitely more car for the money!
@@nadeemm429 But its a totally diferent car. You buy the m140i if you want a small fast car. You cant take the 540i to trackdays and weekend backroad. Totally different cars..
where is the drag race with an actual M5. Let's see who kills who
Seems a bit slow
Faster than an N55

@@lambokiller99 your deluded af bro 🤣 I wanted to get a 540i but I did my research, it’s more or less the same if tuned up properly, Fbo stage 2+ N55 135 100-200 8.62, fbo stage2+ 540i 8.90 on Tesco 99 momentum. I think I’ll be going for a 440i for a improvement
@@s11smk87 a n55 will give you nothing but headaches.
M5 killer ? 😂
480 and 600 is a bit diffrent. m5 has 600? how is it a m5 killer, i bet it even has slower acclseleration.
...this isnt even killing a m550 lci
Killer of what? 😂
Buddy has an M5… 🗣️ 40i
Won't even bark at an m550i
Passenger seat test driver.
The mags are ugly
You playing yourself bro. Nice car but you are not touching a stock F90 M5 with your HP. Also a Stage 2 M5 will be around 700 to 780WHP. Again nice car but you bought the wrong car if you are trying to school an M5.
That title is delusional, this isn’t even touching the toes of the m5 relax now
His comments are annoying!
My f10 m5 would eat this alive what are you talking About ? M5 killer my ass
M5 killer? don't talk shit
M5 has over 600 hp delete your channel you’re embarrassing yourself.
Turbosystems are number 1 far better then pure.
Love to see this kill an M5!… trust me it won’t happen!!
You must mean an older E34 M5 yes🤔
Sounds so terrible, too loud and too useless.
How is this an m5 killer ahahaahah
Its not even close to be an m5 killer, it's a wannabe I don't have m5 money.
The usual Michelin ps4 tyres and ferodo ds500 pads zzzzzzzzzzzz
