Predator 212 torque converter test drive.

Rare Emmick go-kart tormenting neighborhood. cheap torque converter, 32 tooth final drive, intake, exhaust, carb, jetted, governor removed. got it up to 45 this video. can do 60 with better torque converter and better belt. cheap torque converter and belts can't handle 60mph, so I adjusted drive pulley spring limited to 50mph.

328i on M3 suspension, swaybars and coilovers. keeping up with the beginner's class and getting a feel for the car. ended up getting the third fastest lap of the group at a 2:22. 335i manual transmission paired with 3.73 diff makes for good gear ratios.
BMW E90 328i Diff Swap. More Torque?
มุมมอง 9789 หลายเดือนก่อน
Swapping an open 3.08 335i diff with a welded 3.73 328i diff. My 328i is swapped with a longer geared 335 manual transmission (GS6-53BZ). Will changing to a shorter geared diff give my car more torque?

Mods done to my E90 328i so far. Video on the 335 manual swap soon to come! Getting used to editing and getting good footage. comment any tips you might have, or what you'd like to see me do!
You didn’t show the sound of the. Car
It's not turned yet. But I have a short of the car running and driving on my channel.
lol he said Ta Ta Torqued down😂😂the edit threw me off
I daily a 325i and I have a BRZ I take to the track from time to time and use as a fun car. Now I’m having other ideas haha!
@@bradfitzgerald2856 sedans can still get it😂
anybody had a silicone intake boot already and know if it fits?
Im too excited for this build becuase i want to try this first before LS swap my 328i
@aombarbor hell yeah. I feel like LS swapping changes the dynamic of any car a lot. Balance, handling and stuff. I'm not opposed to it, but sometimes it's like may as well buy a c5 corvette. Overall, turbo kit will be cheaper, considering you'll need an new ecu and a lot of fabrication.
I have an old 325i and added the 3 stage intake manifold and had it tuned to use the disa valves... Will this really add anything more that that?
@davezaffina1983 probably not. And if it did, you would lose bottom end and gain top end. This is an alternative to doing a 3stage and needing a reprogram. Only benefit in the n54 manifold is no Programing needed and it is way better if you're going turbo.
@@Moon-Garage ah ok, I'm actually trying to sell my 325i that has too much to list done to it. It is a great car that I loved driving but am trying to free up garage space
Would this also ework for the n51 SULEV motors? I own an e92 328i and have been looking into turbos or even NA power gains.
@christopherweinert9935 I'm not too sure. As far as I know, it should. Maybe message Eurocan Racing and ask to be sure. For good NA power, do all the maintenance and bolt ons, then personally I think the best performance mod is weight reduction.
Estimated time in labor? Im gonna have my shop do this cuz i break things gooder.
@@azraelserene1899 15 to 20 hours.
I just did this swap and got a bunch of codes and lights on. I think I might have a vacuum leak but I also got my brake light on and my DTC light on. Any idea what might cause those 2 lights on? Did you have a small hose on your PVC valve? if so where did you route it to? What did you do with the crankcase vent connector?
@arebelfromhell that's interesting. Brake light and DCT light would usually be from a wheel speed sensor, so maybe you accidentally touched one of those as they are very sensitive. Either way should be completely unrelated to the intake manifold. As for the PCV that comes from the back of the engine, I have it dumping into a catch can. You can route it through a catch can and back into the intake or directly into the manifold, or you can dump it on the ground. Up to you.
@@Moon-Garage Thank you for your reply, I figured out all the codes and the Brake & DCT light. My crankshaft sensor came loose and caused those lights and codes to turn on. I don't recommend installing the manifold without the sleeves like you suggested towards the end of the video because the plastic is really soft especially when it gets hot and created some indents from tightening the bolts on my manifold.
Very very good video
Thanks for making a good video well appreciated ❤
Bro not many people have videos doing a N52 turbo good job I would like to know around how much does turbo kit go for thanks bro
I’m not OSHA do what you want 🤣😭
🔥🔥🔥
when i put this on my n52 do i NEED to have an n54 intake manifold?
No, infact it may be easier without it.
Bro epic
Can this be done with the e60 n52? Or is the clearance different?
I'm not too sure, but I would bet on it working. I would have to look at a 5 series engine bay, but I don't see why it wouldn't work.
Hey I have a 630ci with N52 engine, can I work a turbo system like this in it? I had it from new paid a pretty penny for it, now it’s 19 years old and 72k kilometers on the clock.
1. i wish i owned a car at your age 2. i wish i owned a cool car at your age 3. i wish i had the knowledge to do this at your age 4. i wish i had the systems in place around me to do all the above
why am i watching this? i'll never be able to do this myself and idek how to ask a mechanic to do this.. i feel like they'd just laugh at me or think i'm being rude. ( not that I can afford to pay someone to do it )
You'll figure it out. Once you start to understand basics, everything else comes easy. Just dont start with a full turbo kit. Do small stuff first and get better. When you do big hard jobs, the hardest part is starting it. All in all, it's not too hard or bad. Just take your time.
3 years ago I didn’t even know how to turn a wrench, now I’m pulling the manual tranny out of my e90 n52 and looking at turbo builds. This definitely is doable and not all that hard, just a lil time consuming that’s all
3:11 what is that big wheel to the right of your hand? I just got a 2012 128i and this is the worst looking part of the car. looks rusty
Is the harmonic balancer / crankshaft drive pulley. This is the wheel that sends power to the belt to spin all the other accessories. Here are the oem part #s 11237516385, 11237546108, 11237564969 It's about $122 on FCP euro.
I thought N52’s couldn’t handle boost?
Anything can handle boost. It's just how much.

I'm starting to wonder why knowone is really working on the 2015 model year of this car 😮
After 2011, the 328/528 have a different engine it's a turbo 4 cylinder. One of my friends had one and did some upgrade and made just under 350HP.
Very well detailed write up/video. After watching this im leaning more and more to a rear mount set up. There is so much room where the factory muffler goes and the turbo really dosent help with a allready cramped engine bay
I agree. I'm hoping ECR makes a bottom mount. 4N motorsports makes a bottom mount and its equal length, but it's about $6k just for the manifold and turbo. Not worth that.
@@Moon-Garage I'm a welder/fab guy so ill be making my own manifolds & intake pipes at the very least. If I can make the finished product with enough quality that I am OK with putting my name on it in the public space I will probably put it up for sale in small batches. Hopfully by this time next year I will be done building my shop and have my hoist set up so I can get started on the actual fun part. I don't see why I wouldent be able to make a quality kit with everything but turbo for around 2k
I wanna do this so bad please keep making content
how on earth is this supposed to work? The ECU needs to be programmed with the right map and you need the intake feed back from the valves and the MAP sensor and the valves need to know when to open and close along with the throttle valve. The vanos need a different timing and the vlavetronic will also need ...OMG I dont see how this will work at all.
N52 is very good at reading airflow and udjusting fuel. A tune may help a little, but it will pick up power on its own. Going from one manifold without a disa to another without a disa is hardly a change for the engine tune. Just a matter of flow at certain RPMs.
🔥🔥 good content bro
60-130 time?
After It's fully tuned and ripping, I'll get all the times👍
Part 2 is coming out soon!
Please make a full parts list with links that would be killer
@brenden1238 I'll be sure to go over every part. But to make it even easier, I got everything from eurocan racing. The kit includes EVERYTHING you need, including tuning. (Not sponsored) www.eurocanracing.com/
I am doing my own single turbo 328i n51 sulev. Im about 90% done but is it possible that that you can give me a clone of your tune or possibly let me know where you got your tune
@@kapone1471 I can see
@@kapone1471 I don't think you can clone tunes hit up stage fp they do tuning for n51/n52 na or boosted
I’m curious as to when the magnesium block will decide when it’s time to head out, but hey man, you’re freaking awesome, you’re doing what everyone is afraid to do, that n52 is a mystery and we must find out its limits.
Agreed
What turbo is that?
Eurocans GT3582. I'll go over all the specs in the next video
@@Moon-Garage Bet, preciate it
I would honestly use a shop vac and not compressed air to be blowing those metal shavings all over the engine bay 😬.
Yeah, I would recommend that instead if you're not removing it. I was rushing.
By far the best and most detailed turbo N52 documentation I've seen online, GJ
Thank you!
Nice project, how is the intake sound is it more now? Maybe you make a vid about that.
Thanks so much gang boutta do this shit
I will absolutely NOT be doing this, more power to you but making this work looks like hell but you seem to be level headed I hope to see some pulls 🤝🤝
What exactly is needed to do the swap??
The manifold, a boot to go from throttle body to air box and tools.
Omg thanks 4 this video!!!!
You reckon I can do this with a n52 125i ?
Yes!
yes yes yess u gotta keep going with these videos 🚦
Im trying! Wish I had more time, but I won't give up.
Good effort love the content mate keep it up 👌
Just got into cars not too long ago I got a 528i I like my car would like to keep it but turbo it and stuff. This is pretty helpful and wish I found you sooner
Thank you! Forsure a good reliable car. I wish I could have posted sooner, but there are always holdups.
with the bigger 5 series and the bad reputation that boosted n52s have i think u should look into ls swap instead
Im not sure if the n52 has any forged internals like the n54. But I do know that boosting a car that was not manufactured for boost is a labor of love & absolutely not cost effective. The limited power you can make just dosent justify the dollars youll spend IMO. But building, tuning, modifying any car or cars in general is not exactly a wise investment for most of us. We do it because we like doing it. Cost be damned! 😒 to an extent.. So keep on building brotha. Cant wait to see the final product...
You can get custom sized forged internals for anything. It will just be expensive. But yes, lots of give and take when picking a car and building it😂 Thank you!
It does have forge internals, just not as N54 thou
That is one big friggin turbo
64mm. Exhaust housing is tiny tho lol. I'll go over the specs in the next video.
I didnt even know they had a kit more turbo content
Wrong block. Look at an N54 to see the differences. Are there even piston cooling nozzles?
Wdym wrong block.
@@Moon-Garage Examine the differences between the N52 and the N54 block in terms of strength and lubrication and cooling. Very different.
@BurntOrangeHorn78 I agree. The n54 is all forged, and the n52 has forged sleeves. N52 weighs less, has a little bit higher compression, the head flows way better, and about 30cc bigger displacement. If I was aiming to make above 700hp, I'd get an n54 and build it from the block up for sure, but Im not into roll racing and hotboy numbers. I just want to make decent drivable power for the track. Not to mention costs difference.
@@Moon-Garage Love this thanks for being cool and making an actual cool and functional build. Fuck your haters I was there once.
U don't know what your doing man u just fucked up
U just fucked your car up dude what the fuck are u doing
If you don't mind me asking but why all the hassle where you can just get N54 and do single turbo kit for cheap and easier to work on? But yes this is really cool to see what N52 can do.. .I used to own e92 328i then bought 335i and have owned 3 n54's in my life time lol.
I'll do a video on why a 328i sometime, but in short, reliability, certain characteristics that the n52 has over the n54 (like compression) and cost. Also, it's all for a purpose. N54 can make good big power, but to drivers that care about more than a straight line, big power is not always what you want, not saying that you can't do a fbo 335 and have a great track car.
