Being an ICE engineer your dedication and delivery to the info related to the engine and its subsystems, calling out the efficiency improvements that are inherently extended performance advantages... just awesome. Cheers dude!
Brother I’m only five minutes in and this is one of the best reviews I watched. Thank you so much for all the details especially about the drive experience. I can’t wait to watch the next 19 minutes.
I've had my 335xi for 2 years and watched your channel from day one. I did dps in my driveway on jack stands after watching you do way more difficult jobs. I'm moving to Texas from NY and just wanna say thanks for all the great content.
I know im asking the wrong place but does anybody know a way to get back into an Instagram account?? I stupidly lost my login password. I appreciate any assistance you can offer me.
@Elliott Troy Thanks for your reply. I got to the site through google and Im waiting for the hacking stuff now. Takes a while so I will get back to you later with my results.
What a beautiful machine. Very jealous! It's so cool to see you break down the improvements on past design. Thank you so much for the DIYs. I have a 2011 e90 335i and I've learned a lot watching you.
Someday when I'm 95 years old I might be able to afford one of those. I still have my 08 335IN 54. I am finishing up all of the modifications that you suggested but now I realize it's just an antique dinasaur
Regarding compression ratio (CR)...a lower CR effectively reduces the peak temperature in the combustion chamber. Assuming the same peak pressure/air density is required, by letting the turbo do more of the compression work, the in-cylinder temperature will be less since it wasn't compressed as much by the piston. Regardless of CR and boost, the air intake temperature will be the same so by compressing it more inside the cylinder you're increasing the peak temperature. Initial air density doesn't affect the peak temperature, it only affects peak pressure/density.
The other big benefit of direct injection is the DME is not limited to injecting WHILE the intake valve is open. DI you can inject fuel whenever you want (see DPF regen), so you can inject way more fuel and still be efficient whereas 2000cc injectors to make similar power isn't the easiest on the engine.
I read an old tech manual on the m52 engines that explained the rationale behind the low cylinder head temp + high block temp configuration. Apparently the lower cylinder head temp means cooler intake mixture.This colder intake mixture has more molecules per part ,which equals more volumetric efficiency. The high block temperature 🌡 results in reduced moving part friction
Great job man ! I really like and appreciate your videos. You re also so helpful with many of my 335i N54 issues ! Thanks and keep doing it , you're a proffesional !
Really love that the interior is now comparable to mercs and Audi. Don’t love all the cut corners for practicality but I guess people wanted it more. Also was wondering about the LC limit and if you can code it out like in Audi’s.
Congratulations on your new car! Well deserved!! Your content is by far the best I've found for detailed, informative, and technically sound information. I'm in the metroplex, let me know if you want meetup for a drive! Thanks again!
Just for clarification, direct injection has much worse atomization compared to port injection. You can tell by the soot on the exhaust tailpipe of every DI car (without a particle filter). The benefit is that you have better control of the fuel delivery and reduced pre-ignition due to fuel stratification. Essentially they calibrate the injection timing based on chamber geometry to have most of the fuel close to the spark plug and not far away which would lead to pre-ignition. That's what allows the higher compression ratio on DI engines. With port injection, fuel is homogeneous everywhere in the combustion chamber and while the combustion propagates from the spark plug to the walls the pressure increases which can lead to auto-ignition of the mixture elsewhere, that's what pre-ignition is
Awesome review.. love how you walk through it all.. and the comparisons to the n54/e90 .. seems they took from that book.. not a bad way to say "bye" to ICE .. keep the vids coming!
Good stuff man you got an M3, the difference between M3 and M335i or M340i is night and day... The whole driving experience is 10x better as I'm sure you are aware
They seemed to be positively received by people in person. Looking back at the front of my old M340i it does still look great but does seem a bit dated in comparison.
Excellent video as always what a machine BMW has created once again just when you think they can’t top the F series they do. And I must say the front is starting to grow on me can’t wait for that F series comparison if you decide to make it 😁
Amazing video, you are so knowledgeable, really enjoyed this. Just wondering why you didn't go for the manual base? I'm looking at buying the manual but my reservation is how the manual transmission can handle more power if I start some minor mods to achieve similar horsepower to the competition? By the way, I'm now subscribed. All the best.
The intake resonator is not a muffler to reduce noise but a resonator tuned to produce standing waves to aid induction pulses. Common practice for last 30 years, especially Japanese higher performance models. "Lose fuel to evaporation" on port injected engines? not really as any "evaporated" fuel is still part of the intake mixture. Not clear what you mean there. My understanding from the BMW S58 introduction video is that the S58 abandoned the stratified cooling scheme of the B58. Pistons, rods and crankshaft are all forged in the S58. Only crankshaft is forged on N54 and some later M2 N55, according to BMW. A national tuner had an early N55 crankshaft out next to an N54 crankshaft and could not visually tell there was any material difference. So .... who knows? Porsches 992 911 run about 9.5:1 geometric compression ratios on their Turbo and Turbo S engines. You know of course that Mahle makes a forged 9.5:1 piston for the N54? Just saying ......
Thanks for the video, very informative and professional :) I hope that one day I will own one of the modern BMWs. I am actually really happy that the reliability is finally improving.
Thanks! I didn't as I got used to the assisted riving on my M340i and really didn't want to give that up. I have a manual N54 335i that I drive when I feel itch to drive manual. I converted it from auto to manual. I've also heard that the manual in the G80 is decent but nothing too special as it was carry over from the F30 340i as a way to offer a manual for the small percentage of people that still want it.
I was hearing rocks kicking up and hitting the bottom of my car constantly, you explaining that the wheel wells not being carpeted makes the car noisier explained everything. I don’t know how I didn’t think of that 🤦♂️
Awesome and super interesting video! Do you think doing a stage 1 with tune and downpipes (or just tune), etc would shorten the lifespan of the engine? Also is there any specific new maintenance that would need to be done? Judging by the video - I think it wouldnt hurt the lifespan, but wanted to ask the expert.
I think the new look is hot. I've seen the shadowline and the other one on the road, distinctive. All the other grilles are big horizontally, this one is big vertically and that makes it stand out. This might be the last grille anyway.
Glad I found this channel, I have just subbed. I like your descriptions, not overly difficult to follow along. Several questions for you though...1. How long are you planning on keeping your M3? 2) Are you going to perform all of your own maintenance work or do you plan on having the dealership look after the things that are under the 4 year 80,000km coverage? Keep up the good videos.
Great video. Have to admit I'm Jelly in the legs over such a beautiful blacked out M-Car, considering I'm some D-Bag Audi/VW guy. Still miss my E46 M3.....You mentioned the S58 compression ratio being lower, and higher turbo charge pressure than the B58 engines, though an important aspect of "Direct Injection" engines you're missing is that DI Technology offers the ability to run a piston engine in "Fuel Stratified" or "Fuel Homogenized" modes. Basically, stratified means we run ultra lean squirting in fuel just before ignition on compression. Running a homogenized ratio (1.0 lambda or 14.7/1 AF) means squirting fuel during the air intake cycle, like a port injected engine. If I had to guess, I'd say the S58 compression is lower because the fuel injection is mostly/entirely homogenous based because it allows for a higher fuel/air density, which results/produces a higher expansion ratio, similar to a Diesel engine......
Beautiful M3 - thanks for the inepth technical discussion. Quick question related to ride comfort: Is the M3 ride comfort the same or stiffer/harsher than the M340i ride comfort. If so, would the M3 confort suspension setting be about the same as the M340i Sport suspension setting?
I don’t understand why don’t build engines you’re so insanely knowledgeable. Where did you get your knowledge from it’s seems like you went to school for it almost hahah . Great video again btw
Have you seen glare free high beam? It's disabled in the US but I think you can enable it with esys. So with the kafas camera the beam will spread out and make a tunnel for the car in front or shut off a light if a car is passing
Amazing content! Really well done buddy. One question I had regarding the m340i, did you face any issues with the rear differential leaking oil? Apparently something common inc the A90 supras. Thanks!
The compression ratio doesn't make a huge difference in power, and paired with direct injection it's mostly for efficiency and emissions. For example, Papadakis Racing went back to port injection with their Supra build. Though they probably use e85 and that cools the intake air even more.
@@VehicularDIY They have custom pistons but didn't mention compression ratio in the 4 videos about the supra build, they did a live build at sema, but it's almost 6 hours to watch, they might have mentioned it there. Usually, engine with high boost have a lower compression ratio and na engines can go up to 12:1 with pump gas, even with port injection. S85 S65
I have a question. I thought there were 10 different settings for their slip differential. Meaning I thought you could set it where the tires would spin out just like the F80 or put the setting on the other end of the spectrum and the tires with catch and not spin at all. Am I wrong?
Thanks for watching, I'm not sure. I'll look into it. I also wondered if the adaptive suspension that's offered on the G20 would be the same as the ones on this car.
Thank you for all you great info on BMW performance... Off topic but would you consider trying out the 19t turbos on your N54 to see how then run in comparison to your turbos you have currently???
Thanks for watching. I'm pretty happy with the stage 2+ turbos I've been running. If I was gonna go for more power I'd definitely go single turbo instead.
I may be in the minority, but I happen to like the aggressive front grill. It looks a lot better in person than in photos. However, when I saw one on the road, it had the front license plate. What an eye sore. What do you plan to do with the front plate?
