      @@abc0583 The B58 engine and ZF 8-speed combination has taken home top prize for Wards "10 Best Engines and Powertrains” for years now. As quoted from their 2019 article...
      "The BMW B58 engine is a remarkable one. Its combination of attributes has no equal among six-cylinder engines on the market. In fact, it may not have an equal among all engines on the market. It’s that good. Good enough to suggest that it’s better than all of the glorious BMW engines that came before it? I’m going to say so, though with a caveat. I’m excluding ultra-rare engines such as the S70/2 V12 engine from the McLaren F1. Only mainstream production engines are included."

    This video went a long way on convincing me to trade in my '14 328xi for a 440i GC, and after over a year of ownership, I can say... these dudes reactions still perfectly sums up how I feel about the car every single day. Ripping it through tunnels never gets old, downshifting is always a free smile, and I just... WANT to drive, anywhere, any time, any excuse I can come up with to be in the car I'm doing it.

      I was driving an e46 325i M-Sport for a decade and decided to finally get a new car. I got the 440i GC with a healthy amount of upgrades and couldn't be happier. As much as I love the 3-series in general, the only thing I would say I prefer is visibility but I wouldn't trade my 440i GC for the 340i. Furthermore the 3 series just looks like every other saloon on the road these days. Great cars but 440i looks and feels more exciting.

      @@collinlong978 good question I've been trying to find the answer but at this point I honestly don't know. BMW state 326bhp so that's what I'm telling people but after extensive research and listening to other car fans it's apparent BMW understate their specs, which is wild but it means for me the insurance is much more manageable vs the equivalent Audi or Merc so that's a win. I surprised a friend of mine who loves cars more than me the other day just to see his face, after a brief inspection he said to me, 'this is like 350 right', I said no but that's when he went into one about the understated specifications and so on. So formally the answer is no, but it seems to be a very well known secret in the business. I'm contemplating getting it remapped to 450 and maybe I'll find out for sure at that point. But yeah, still happy and I'm hitting 0-60 sub 5 seconds though it can only do 5.10 according to the literature 👀

    As a 440i owner with the MPPSK (exhaust kit) I honestly think you hit it out the park with this review.

    • @MrMduchesne23
      @MrMduchesne23 2 года назад

      So I'm looking at purchasing a used one....4 years later. How is/was your ownership experience. I'm coming from a 2015 vw GTI performance
      I wasn't amazed at the top-end performance but the acceleration was amazing.

    • @thomasburns3345
      @thomasburns3345 Год назад +1

      ⁠@@MrMduchesne23I had a 2016 GTi PP tuned for 93. I went from that to 2013 S4 (Tuned 93, 440 HP). I traded that for a 2018 340i MPPSK. So I think I might be in a unique position to answer this. You might believe the top end wasn’t good but I can say that it is very fast top end stock, if you didn’t feel it so much that’s likely due to how SMOOTH the b58/ZF8 combo is. Smooth cars don’t feel as fast usually, and this car’s power train is butter. I can say I have the numbers to back it up. I didn’t have my Dragy when I had the GTi, but I know roughly were that car slotted based on who I raced and how it stacked up. The S4 was a large step up from the GTi in terms of top end. Stock they were about the same, once I tuned the S4, the GTi wasn’t even same ballpark. I trapped 113.5 @ 12.06 in the S4 ecu/tcu on 93 and intake only for reference. I haven’t collected a standing quarter yet with the 340i, but they seem to be about mid 12 with 109/110 with the MPPSK. So the s4 is faster but feeling wise they feel CLOSE to equal. That’s because I was able to grab a 60-130. S4 BEST case was 12.1 (I averaged 12.4, for reference in my average DA a 392 Scat is identical 60-130, I raced a C6 Vette the last week I had the s4 and got exactly one car length put on me through 140). So 12.4 average. The first and only try with the 340i was 13.2 for the 60-130. That’s about a difference of 3 cars. In a hypothetical the S4 would gap the 340i by about 3 cars. I think the GTi would’ve slotted in about a car or two behind the 340i. However that’s a s4 with ECU/TCU and lightweight wheels and KW suspension. And a GTi with intake/tune. The 340i is just stock/stock/stock. From what I can see a downpipe and a tune later the 340i will be placing high 9 in the 60-130 on 93. With a TU hpfp, into the 8s on pump. 7s if you mix ethanol. In other words, the top end on a e50 Stage 2+ (two mods and gas!!!) runs in the ballpark of a stock Hellcat. So all this to say the data shows there isn’t a lack of top end on the 340i, and if you watch enough Supra/340/440 videos you’ll begin to see that actually the b58 has more top end stock turbo when tuned properly than most GT/SS/392 v8s. Which is nutty to think about. For it to only be mildly behind my S4 (which was faster than C5 Vettes, just behind C6/C7, could pull on manual 5.0, 10A Stangs were too fast though, hang with Camaro SS in manual or 10A form, and would creep on or match 392 Scats) means that it’s just behind that benchmark. STOCK. If you are open to tuning well then the B58 is your oyster… the data is pretty convincing. It’s not the fastest car but at the price point, it’s hard to beat the value package and few if any motors offer quite the value of the B58. For 60-130 to get from the stock 11s down to 9s in a SS or 5.0 takes thousands and full e85 constantly. The 392 can’t even break 9s without try hard investments. They’re heavy af and pretty maxed from the factory meanwhile $500 Supra HPFP and $300 DP with a $600 tune on the 340i and you’re rocking that all day on 93 pump. That’s why I stepped from the GTi to the S4 and the S4 to the 340i. The S4 can get those numbers too, but you’re talking pulleys, de-cat, ethanol mixing. Then the DSG has to hold up. The GTi could also do that, but would’ve needed at minimum an IS38 and supporting bolt ons AND fueling upgrades. Probably a Litco is38 hybrid or similar to regularly hit that on pump. Meanwhile the 340i can do all that and run like stock in Normal mode because guess what, it’s the factory turbo still. Brilliant engine. Spend some time watching race footage and you’ll see that B58 aren’t THE fastest thing out there but they’re ridiculous hard to beat especially for the value. Watch enough races and you’ll see once tuned they have crazy top end also. Not sure what the voodoo there is because top end is usually when v8s play. I suspect it has to do with the air to water IC in the intake manifold which cools more at those crazy speeds since it passes more air over the heat exchanger. Plenty of content to digest here on RUclips. Check Autoglory and a few others to see the gamut of possibilities with minor investment.

    So I went with the 2018 BMW 340i Msport and having the car for 2 months upgraded the Wheels went with Agency power SRI and AFE Power Valve Cat back Exhaust along with the AFE power scorcher module.. The sound and performance is night and day from stock ! The exhaust alone in Sport + gurgles and pops just like this 440i X drive in the review.. It also have me 13hp and 16 tque the mutual Schorcher kit gave me 52hp and 79 tque due to supporting AFE power mods so all in all yes my beemer is super quick and I can never look at another brand BMW is it for me the engineering they put into this B58 engine is astonishing to say the least again excellent review y'all keep up the Great work

      This isn’t the M performance exhaust, it’s the MPPSK exhaust. The M performance exhaust is just a slightly louder stock muffler. The MPPSK is a full catback exhaust that deletes both resonators and the muffler is dual valved which results in a full muffler bypass. The MPPSK exhaust is a straight pipe from the cat back when in sport mode and goes through the muffler in comfort. This is WAYYYYY better than the M performance exhaust.

    What made me sub, was that talk about the defroster button, shows how deep these guys go into each car. As a M4 owner, that button issue is the only complaint that I’ve got with the interior 😂😂
