bro glazing
@@6mtcruiser I'm old enough that I'm hitting up urban dictionary on the regular and looked up glazing and genuinely had a lmao moment. Happened the other day in person where someone said "those are gas"
@@VehicularDIYI really want to see how long this setup lasts if it can last past 100,000 miles or if it’s a short term setup and the engine blows
@@Sequel7 given he knows the correct way to setup and tune an engine, I'm gonna guess on the latter. That said, 500hp on 2.0 liters is crazy!
As long as you aren’t glazing your bore, it’s all good
We miss you come back
Seriously, I wanna, know how this is holding up, I love people who go against the grain
He's back!!
@@Villani_AVit is very cool but that motor is toasted if he’s been actually driving it.
I'm just amazed on your depth of knowledge of this motor. Never would've thought this powerplant was viable for major high output numbers but you demonstrated it can be a B58 alternative with no downsides.
well the downside is that it’ll cost more just to make the same power as a b58. and less overall potential. doesn’t sound as good. less reliable. but at least the days of the garbage n20 motors are gone, these new b48s are pretty stout
Yeah it can be an B58 alternative depending on your power goals. If you picked up a 2019 for under 25K and put 8K into it you're at 32K and making close to 500 WHP. You could pick up a 2020 M340i for closer to 40K and put 3K into it and make similar power but you'd have your power falling off near redline. Given the 330i is lighter and will hold power to redline with the upgraded turbo I could see a situation where the M340i can't compete on a stock turbo. Main thing for me is the balance of the 330i, handles great. If you were looking to spend 10K+ and go as fast as possible for under 50K total then it wouldn't be a B58 alternative but I'd imagine that 90% of people would be happy with a car that runs low 11s and maybe even high 10s with a good tire.
@@VehicularDIY 2.0l engine? I cannt believe it can produce so much!
@@VehicularDIYhi long term subscriber here. Just curious if all 330i have the b48 or are some b46? I know all the 4cyl turbos in europe are b48s but BMW including Mini revised the b48 to the B46 to meet EPA regulations. Can you please shed some light for us here in the US?
@@tomasis7 Yeah we can thank the Supra guys for pushing the 3.0 so far and BMW for using the same rod and piston and fueling system in the 2019 B48 4 cylinders. Along with the same transmission.
This build is insane. I don’t have a 330 but it’s sick to see this platform being pushed.
I have anxiety just hearing all those clips disconnect 😂 I have snapped em just by looking at them. These videos are so legit. You sir are a master in your craft. Thank you for providing for the b46/48 community. Doesn’t make me feel as bad not getting a b58 after knowing how much potential my 4cyl has 👍
Bro I can’t stress how much the world needs you for science keep pushing it
Thank you 🙏
Wow bad ass.
Worked on BMW back in the 80’s fresh out of high school. 30 years later I finally bought one.
Congrats!
hope it’s a g80 after 30 years 😭
Hope you good man!
Can confirm--he's great!!
So's the car!! 😆😆

This is CRAZY.
I love this series even more with each episode. This is soooo well thought, it is such a pleasure to finally watch someone who know what he's doing.
"small displacement engine can achieve legendary status" ...hahaha definitely has to be the BMW quote of the year so far!
Miss your videos can't wait until the next one! Wanna see more vids of this build POV!
I just bought an M140i finale edition. I absolutely love it. Just threw a downpipe in and stage 1, it was a rocket from factory and now it’s just scary. Can’t wait for an lsd and stage 2+.
Coming from a 335i it’s night and day
Where you been bro??? We need more vids!! How’s the 330 holding up
I have the EXACT same car, same options, same 2019, but in mineral gray and in the UK (so b48 vs b46). Please never stop making these videos. The g20 330i is hugely underrated.
Wow, I had no idea the 330 had a water/air intercooler in the manifold. Your take reminds me of Gale Banks' take on charge air density. Genius.
Yeah it's really neat that they started offering it from the factory on LCI F series and G series cars.
this guy is honestly a mechanical mastermind, the stats and science you have behind every thing you change on the car is outstanding. kudos
You’re the reason why people can’t talk sh!t about newer BMW 4banger. I have so much respect for you, and gave me so much confidence on building my B46TU. What a legend 🫡
i appreciate all your content you play a huge role in the car community!
You will be the reason I mod my bmw 430i 2019
Could you creat kit lists for b48 packages so we can choose what level we can go for based on power and affordability etc?
Exactly...a tiered set up would be awesome based on budget! The intake manifold and heat exchanger would probably only help the reliability in the long run and give you a nice HP bump as well...
@@stephenarnold772well he’s left me hanging for 3 months now lol
Get well bro!❤
Can confirm: he's definitely well! 😆
Big update vid just posted! 😎
Looking forward to the next video! You’re a big pice of what has gotten my e92 to where it is!
I was looking for a b58 car but these have a massive premium price in my country, like $15 to $20k extra. They also made up less tha 5% sales. So theyre expensive and hard to find.
This guy helped me realise I can exceed my performance goals with a b48 and I was able to easily find a 530i in the exact spec I wanted.
Also, FYI 530i is same kerb weight as 430i.
MG Flasher is first step.
Just actually set and thought about being so confused if i got gapped by a 330 in my 340 but now you are getting into the rage of beating up on the b58 guys. Super excited for the build
Next video, pleeeaaaasssee, some more driving vids and dragi times would be great
PLEASE POST MORE VIDEOSSSSSSSSSS! UPDATE ON 330I PLEZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ.
UPDATE HAS ARRIVEDDDDDDD!!!!! 😆😆😆
The manifold upgrade should definitely take priority over the turbo upgrade just because of how it not only makes the car faster but also help preserve engine longevity. The turbo upgrade alone will easily heat soak the engine and shorten the lifespan. Turbo upgrade alone is good for a daily but you can’t do any serious track work. I’m definitely going for the manifold first as soon as I’m out of warranty.
Can you expect gain more hp through changing only the intake manifold?
@@deutsch323yep, cooler intake temps = more power. And it will be a consistent boost in power. If you heat soak an engine it will pull timing and lower your power to protect the engine. This modification should definitely take priority before the turbo upgrade.
Well, bigger turbos running less boost pressure to achieve the same flow of mass of air will actually help to keep the engine run cooler too. Either way, you need to upgrade both to keep the engine as cool and the least stressed as possible.
With the stock turbo and upgraded intake+intercooler, you’ll still be running high PSI and overworking the turbo to get the maximum power, and likewise with the stock intake+intercooler (but upgraded turbo), there would still be a build of pressure and heat in the intake once you start to push it.
Personally, i think if you’re not in a rush for big power, the intake+intercooler is the best first step because it means you can happily choose a turbo later knowing that it’s not going to have any restrictions on the intake side of things.
However, if you’re just trying to get to 400whp+ as quickly as possible, a bigger turbo will be able to do the trick relatively easily without actually increasing the stress on the engine that much because it flows much easier/better and causes less back-pressure on the exhaust/hot side of things.
This man makes you feel confident and helped me modify my n54 to 600+whp by watching his videos. I no longer have it but straight to the point very informative videos! Thank you sir

Love your content bro makes me wanna upgrade my 330i 😂
Do itttt
thank you for the step by step guide on how to remove/reinstall all the parts. it allows me to understand how hard/easy these modifications are.
B48 Whp goal post has been moved a few more yards. New record is 650whp 525tq on a revised conservative tune on a built engine ( Trinidad and Tobago F30 330e ).I think the guys in the Middle East (white car) can make 780whp safely. They have way more mods done to their build like a totally built out B58. I believe the balance shafts may become a problem unlocking more power beyond 800whp safely. Lets say the balance shafts are a non issue, is anyone looking at the potential of reving this engine even higher to 9000rpm on a bigger turbo 68mm with a properly ported head and hardware ?
A true master. I’m having some difficulty keeping up with the speed of the whole installation process, to be honest 😅

In other news, HUGE update just dropped--check out the new vid! 😁
Can't decide if 330i or M240I would be the best, these videos really show how B48 can be a fun engine.
If you like the 2 series you could mix in the 230i and get all the same results I'm getting on my 330i with the same mods. I've had a gen 1 B58 in my 440xi, gen 2 in a M340i, N54, N55 in a X5 and a S58 in a G80 M3. Out of all them I'm finding this to be the most fun as it has a Jekyll & Hyde personality, feels so subdued and easy to drive in comfort mode and hits really hard in sport +. The N54 with upgraded twins is a close 2nd, the only reason it isn't first as it always felt like it could just barely tolerate what is being asked of it before the DME would jump in and freak out. This feels like it wants more.
@@VehicularDIYWhen referring to the 230i are you talking about the F22 or the G42? I have an interest on the F22 230i as their prices are becoming more reasonable.

Thank you for the video, I have been looking forward to this one. Looks good on the car!
From my experience with BMW engines, they respond really well to intakes, downpipe and a tune to factor the changes. For less than $1000 you can make an easy 50+ HP from any turbo BMW engine.
Where’d you go?
Bro we need more updates 🥲🥲

When is the next video coming out. Trying to follow along with my g20 as well
It's time to get a new BMW
thats insane how the bmw has it its own service procedure. my audi so lame, i ran thermostat wide open and hoped for the best
Hey man, this is some awesome stuff. I wonder if the same setup could be added to a mini cooper S ? I mean a 400whp mini would be insane.
There are so many tubes and stuff in this engine compared to older models that it becoming problematic due to any of this failing is increased exponentially!!!
A lot going on for sure but most if it is just PCV related, the reliability ratings on these newer BMWs are starting to be come quite high.
I was waiting for this video!
This videos are great, I really like watching how the series 3 is getting faster and reliability. Is the perfect bmw sleeper
I never would of thought the stock pistons and connecting rods in the B48 would be able to sustain 400+ wheel horsepower. Granted there are practically zero videos on modding this engine asides yours, but im curious on longevity of the engine with an upgraded turbo and such.
I remember a few facebook marketplace warnings of some shop in Texas saying a few people cracked their piston heads from running JB4 map 3 on their imported 420i, but I have read the B48 in the 20i variants use weaker construction overall since that car runs 11:1 compression and is only ever intended to make 184Hp.
Yeah I went off the fact that the rod and piston in this engine is interchangeable with a 2021 3.0 Supra. Plenty of examples Supras holding up in the high 700 whp range so just did the math. The high pressure fuel system plays a big part, the older 20i B48 in the F series did face issues due to the higher comp ratio and lower fuel pressure.
@@VehicularDIYGood to know, forgot the MK5 supra uses the B48/B58.
I to have a G22 430i. Im pretty interested in getting that intake manifold you have listed, as the boost of HP is significant. My question is would I need to have my ECU unlocked by femto? Really trying hard to avoid doing that as I really don’t want to be out of a car for 2-4 months. I know for a new turbo id need the ECU unlocked but as far as the intake manifold goes id imagine you should be able to bolt it on and call it a day.
Lovely video again 👌👍🏼💪🏼
Awesome! Would be really interesting to see how the car pulls at all speeds and all gears both before and after each upgrade if you happen to have it. 🎉
This guy needs to open a shop…! Come on man.
Why dont you show us rolling 10 to 100 kph time, how the car power slides and drifts with this new BHP

Good job bro🎉👍
Hmm. For a f36 430i on (E5) 93 octane, maybe this intake and the upgraded HPFP would be good enough for close to 350whp on the stock turbo…
Hope your doing ok

Any update on the wheel hp on 91 octane?
Another banger for the b48 community, thanks man 👊💯, good to know its benifits to the stock turbo, would you say its better to have the port injection with this intake manifold? or could you just use the billet intake manifold?
You could run this without port if you wanted to keep the stock turbo but have the engine be happier with the cooler intake charge. Port comes in if you have an upgraded turbo and want to run more ethanol and then you'd want this if you're looking to make over 450 whp.
@@VehicularDIY thanks for info, i plan on going for a ipos500 or a g25-660, ill only be running 99 octane pump gas, filling up on ethanol is abit annoying in uk, we dont get e85 at the petrol station
@@Reaper_f30 Yeah would make sense to go with a bigger turbo in that situation. IPOS (turbo and intake manifold maker) has an IM500 on their 2021 Supra right now and will be publishing numbers soon to give you an idea of what to expect.

@@VehicularDIYgreat content on the B48, I'm in the UK so no e85 for us sadly, not a fan of methanol injection either, but if I wanted to use a hybrid turbo setup with the billet intake manifold you have in the video but only using pump fuel 99 octane, what types of numbers whp would you expect using only 99 octane pump fuel with fbo, billet intake manifold and hybrid turbo?
