Yes still running it, I do make sure to clean it regularly too, there was a ever so slight change in induction noise.

Thank you

Definitely

I know, I love it

Literally, I hardly ever run burbles now

@ethantyrerf22 yeah n55 sounds so good even compared to b58, definitely the best budget sports car on the used market rn

@@snappedoversteer7284Completely agree, such good fun for the money

It’s a Forge Motorsports one, sounds incredible

@@ethantyrerf22 Thanks dude Gonna look into getting one for my 335. I appreciate it!

@@GB-Growz No worries, enjoy it

A Private one 😂

@ethantyrerf22 😭

Yes I did, car ran well, there will be a video on it at some point, bare in mind that the fuel being run is 99 Octane and IAT were extremely low

@ethantyrerf22 Still you need to flash the Stage 2+ map to achieve those numbers for the N55 EWG. Looking forward to the video.

Thank you, much appreciated, and thanks for watching as always

No? haha

@ethantyrerf22 just wondering cos most do in neutral, mine included.

@ ahhh, not that i’ve noticed, will have to take a look

@ethantyrerf22 driving me mad has always been like since new, that's the problem with bmw manual gearboxs.

@ I’ll take a look and see if mine does it, i’ve never really noticed before to be honest

Really, Really good, haven’t had any issues at all which is good

Thank you

It has a Cobra Sports Cat 😊

@@ethantyrerf22 and it required a tune after the sports cat? if so what tune, I like the sound of yours and wanted to recreate it :D

@ you don’t have to tune it, can you run it without it’s all personal preference, hope this helps

Yes they are, I LOVE them to be honest think they go with the car really well.

@ yeah its the cheaper option for wheelforce cf3 i want those but they are way too expensive

@ what sizes you have on the car

@ 255/35/18 rear, 225/35/18 front

@@ethantyrerf22 okay perfect, and the wheels?

Will try my best for you

Appreciate it, thank you for watching

No, on stock internals 550 ish whp pure stage 2 with supporting mods. Had this setup on an F30 335i it was a perfect daily.

summed it up perfectly, definitely something I want to do in the future

@ethantyrerf22 pilot 5 on my have been brillant in the wet! Glad I got rid of the supersports absolutely crap in the wet and cold with 500hp 😂

@ ahh I’m not surprised, might give the pilots a go when these ones I currently have on are done

@@ethantyrerf22 honestly feels a completely different car on pilot 5s.

Damm, that’s some bad news for me :/

@@ethantyrerf22 either S55 Sump and scavenge pump, or look into accusump. It collects oil during normal driving and when it detects low oil pressure it releases the oil it's stored so you don't throw a bearing etc. For the occasional nurburgring trip where you're not driving at 10/10ths all the time you'll be fine though.

@@tmb92 appreciate the info

Appreciate you watching and using the advise, at the moment just enjoying the car for what it is at the moment, hopefully in the future though will be looking into more stuff

Thank you, I totally agree

I very much agree

@JIBBOYZ is very underrated, b58 isn't a lot better! Ewg n55 are just as quick in stock form and have stronger bottom ends and crank OG m2 uses the same parts Plenty of them are running 700bhp with no problem, torque that kills engine, not bhp.

Yep, you summed it up perfectly haha

What car did he have that he seized his engine with mate?

baffle still does not fully fix the issue, but helps a little bit.

@ Good to know

Nice one, no signs of metal shavings inside your oil filter?

@@ethantyrerf22 yes a bit tbf

Appreciate it, will get some more content at this angle 🫱🏻‍🫲🏼

I’m glad, takes a decent amount of effort for sure

Great information thank you so much for your input, might look into a m2 sump or baffled one in the future.

@@ethantyrerf22 best mod is to watch oil pressure reading and temp, I'm sure with MHD that can be done? I have the vent display in my car.

@ Reading oil pressure what should I be looking out for with that when pushing the car?

I belive so, the EWG n55 engines are built more stronger 💪. I got 2014 435i F33 with EWG version. Rod bearing issue seem to be previous n55 engines 2009 to 2013 e series and f series.

@ethantyrerf22 90c - 110c normal warm oil temp. Just let the car warm up, that's what makes rod bearing go. Also, get a bigger intercooler at stage 2 cos air temps can cause higher oil temps because the engine needs cooler airtemps to keep oil temps lower.

hmmmmmmmm fine :/

Appreciate the info, will definitely be looking more into it for the future for sure

What rod bearings did you use? King?

It is not as big of an issue as people make out of it, but it is recommended to change them to stronger like ACL around 150dkm. If you do regular oil changes and drive it on street you should be fine. Doing track or a lot of donuts then you might need to find a solution for it.

@ Good info

@@ethantyrerf22 also, if you want to track once in a while, overfill the oil by a quarter, lots of people do that too. If you building a full track n55 then get m2 oil sump setup, baffle won't do enough.

@@veldmannn it’s definitely not something i’ll be doing often, probably once every 6 months maybe, so will defo look into overfill the oil ever so slightly, basically make sure oil reading is on max and then put in a extra quart?

@@ethantyrerf22 yup but only when going on the ring for example, not for street use, know plenty of people who done over 50 laps with just ACL bearings on E chassis n55 engine without issues. You have to keep in mind that of course it’s a bottle neck of the n55 non M engine, but there are so many of these engines sold that you have to look at it percentage wise.

Thanks! The Scorpion exhaust really brings out the beast in the GTI. Glad you enjoyed the video!

Thank you

Still sounds like a amazing car though

It really all depends on the garage and location, a lot of garages will fit a Aftermarket exhaust

@@ethantyrerf22 thats what i thought but i wasnt sure lol keep up the good vids as always😁

@Oskar-iq4mm​ Will do, thank you for watching

Yes at some point in the future definitely

Defo will in the future

Yes you are, i’ve seen it

Appreciate it mate, thank you for watching too

Knew you would comment this, stay in your b58 lane Jay! haha

Around 80k miles, in my ownership since 60k miles ive been doing oil changes every 3-5k miles

Pity*

that’s a shame, sorry to hear that, previous bad service history with the car maybe? Very rare B58’s have major issues

That’s good then haha, frequent oil changes are the best definitely
