Blew a ringland in cyl 6.. then lifted my head 150km after doing forged bottom end rebuild on my aluminum B25… Now did a Cometic head gasket and raceware studs.. Have 1000km of 10psi just waiting for it. Living on borrowed time 😂 Never again! Expensive lessons, Iron blocks from now on! Keep it up bud 🍻
@@kinpump4696 actually .. it's exactly the same parts and cost lol. I own a turbo E36. And a turbo s52 E39. I also have a m54b30 turbo. You can get a E39 528 iron block from factory. And a e39 is cheaper to buy than a E46.... Where's the extra cost?
Great vid. That's basically my set up. I did test fit it with the e36 oil pan and it clears. Is there any reason other then the oil level sensor you didn't just use the e36 pan?
Hey can I do this for a 2001 bmw 325i I want to change both the valve cover gasket to metal which I know I can already do but I can do the same for the intake manifold right? I don’t want to turbo or anything just for looks and better reliability
whats the reason for deleting vanos out of the tune and running it off disa? wouldnt it be just as easy to suppress the dtc for the missing exhaust CPS?
is this cable throttle or DBW? I'm starting to dive into how to run an aluminum intake manifold on my 330 when I go turbo and am currently trying to figure out what the throttle body situation will be like
Can you throw in a little clip next video explaining what to do if you have a deleted AC and in cab heater core and what not. For my m54, I run a plug at the bottom of the expansion tank and a plug on the head.
Hi mate I’m looking to turbo a e46 325i m52 b25. What are e 46 turbos like as a car regards reliability because I’m a bit scared haha the cars on 120k miles
Hey I love what your doing. I'm working on the same exact swap. I did not swap over the oil pan. So my level sensor is dangling. I'm reusing the m54 b25 intake manifold. Having a no crank issue now. Is their anyway we can contact each other to iron out the details?
I just bough a twin screw supercharger from ESS Automotive. With this kit it works with power steering so no need to remove it. It look so awesome too.
Aye bro I have a 328ci that does not crank I’ve looked at all the TH-cam vids I’ve spent 1k plus on trying to figure it out changed a lot of things and nun any help ?
Buy a tune with deleted ews. Check your clutch switch. Or delete your ews on your own. You can jump 2 pins on ews to see if it cranks (simple first step )
@@drewdavis239 I got the ews delete and when I connect my I carsoft pro scanner it connects pulls misfire code but when I manually type the vin on scanner to read everything it has error code I also used a foxwell scanner and autozone got a new to me ecu with ews delete from the same guy that did it og and I tried jumping it with a fuse to see if cranks and nun checked fuses even the 1 by ecu checked key switched starter and alternator og alternator was bad car would run but it died on me when driving the last time and I jumped and got it home barely made it was misfiring due to dead battery replaced it and it never cranked again
Ews delete, Check Grounds (front under engine) and Postive connection, check the fuse thats on the postive terminals in the trunk, and clutch switch, also check the starter to see if it works
@@bannasong98 well it was all connected the starter was a lil off u could stick a pencil in the gap but put a new starter and yea I pushed it with my truck and nothing
Wow , that was very quick! Your pretty much the template man for e46 turbo builds ! Appreciate the e46 content .

Should do an E39 turbo build, that'd be awesome to see!
E39 wouldn't be a so called "budget build" e46 chasis has more aftermarket parts

@@drewdavis239manual is hard to find
Which e39 do we use the pick up from?
I have a face lift, but i think i secretly prefer pre facelift 🤭
Do you still have Canbus? and how did you get the harness figured out because I want to swap in a S52 in my car but that part is puzzling to me 🤔
Bro I think you are behind me on the highway
Great vid. That's basically my set up. I did test fit it with the e36 oil pan and it clears. Is there any reason other then the oil level sensor you didn't just use the e36 pan?
No modifications at all?
With a little imagination you could have had the best in both worlds
Whats that
A cast iron m52 block? That's news to me, only m50s are iron here in Australia
i’m the US all m52s are cast iron
well maybe not z3s
Anyway to retain a/c on a top mount setup?
Uhhhh custom ac lines and a different ac compressor bracket
Is m50 a harder swap ?
i’m guessing it would be very similar
The engine bolts onto the same transmission from the e46?
Yep
@@hellrotgarage what about the drive shaft?
You put schrick cams on?
No I wish

cant you buy a harness adapter from 4cylinder to 6 cylinder, if so where can i purchase 😅

Could i purchase one of ur built
BG KY? I'm really close if so.

Hi I have a 05 325ci is pretty easy to swap the m52 ?
Much love from Cali bro I wish I can make it to the meet and get to meet you. Good luck with the tune bro. Crazy work for 2 days !!
did you go from ms45 to ms43 on the zhp car?
Un opened junkyard motor?!
What did you die with crank sensor?. Use m54? Or m52? And on crank hub?.
M54 crank sensor on the back side of the block
What e39 oil pan?
Any plans for doing a straight up vertical M5x id love to se a build vlog with that. :D
Wow! Save all iron blocks.
Awesome video. Off to buy an iron block now! :)
I was planning on going to import but I gotta work on my house sadly, hope tuning goes smooth and you make it to import g!!
Hi mate I’m looking to turbo a e46 325i m52 b25. What are e 46 turbos like as a car regards reliability because I’m a bit scared haha the cars on 120k miles
at 120k miles u should have too many worries just put the money in to do it right

did you ever figure it out
Does the pre-facelift coupe front end fits the pre-facelift sedan?
yes
King shit
So if I have the e39 m52 then I don’t have to change the oil pan??
Just put a m54 oil pan on it and you are good to go. The e39 has the correct pick up tube to work with the stock m54 pan
Hi man! I'm so fan of your videos, I hace a question, How many HP could that configuration have approximately? Peace! ✌️
Check out the m50 builds. I believe the m52 iron block has the same potential. There are 1000hp samples out there in the m50 world.
Hey can you guid me through these steps
This video should have everything you need in it.
what turbo would you suggest for my single vanos m52b28 build, my goal is 500 hp
and what turbo manifold, it’s going in a e36
Hows it going
