I'm starting to wonder why people aren't working on the 2015 328i's ? Why 😮? Are the older years better or something? Help I'm knew to bmw as I just purchased my 328i and wanting to mod tune it Will this project work with thar car?
I found this video on a random TH-cam search 8hp swap on my chassis is a future option as my stock ford t5 wont last 1 launch /pull at 550 whp in a 3600lbs van with a v8 so ive got to follow it along
@@straightsixracing it's already a as modern as possible build minus the actual engine choice air to water intercooler, electric water pump, electric power steering,electric wastegate,custom race spec harness I'm making myself with bulkheads and deutsch connectors future plans:abs, electric ac compressor, digital dash, so the transmission will be the be all end all of the swap.
Can't you just run the direct injection and the port injection off the max ECU? I heard there's reliability issues when you go all port injection like engine's braking because they don't get the cooling that direct injection provide for them in the cylinder
Maxxecu doesn’t support DI. Also, early on people tried to block the holes for the injectors incorrectly and had leaks or burned seals. I am plugging the head with titanium bolts. N54’s have seen 900hp+ like that without issue on Maxxecu.
To explain further, the injector cooled itself down using fuel. Without fuel, the material used for injectors can get very hot. Using the right plugs / block off material and method is crucial and has largely been figured out as hundreds have gone pi only with Maxxecu. It’s truly superior for Motorsport oriented n54 vehicles.
following the direct injection delete closely, the $3k injectors are the worst part of the n54 platform imo. I'd adding direct injection to my build soon, maybe I'll just go full delete
My understanding is the Maxxecu takes care of control without flashing. I’ll have more information as I install and go through the tuning process so there will be videos coming on that.
@ now that’s what I’m talking about ! Do something crazy, I went custom and probably about to switch it up again since I just blew me second stock motor at 715hp. Built motor on the stand waiting to go in
Congrats on the new addition. Good to see an update!
Yoooo you had a kid thats fantastic! Congratulations buddy cant wait to see the single turbo build
Yessir! We will have to catch up soon.
I have a 8hp70 and a stock 8 bolt flex plate and works perfectly. Im running turbolamik
Finally a new video😂💯, good to hear from you man🤝 hope all is well
All is great! Thanks for watching 💪🏻
8hp is crazy!
💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻
N54 with an 8hp. I've been thinking of that
But turbolamik has a tcu for those transmissions also
Yep. Turbo Lamik has a great tcu!
woah 8 hp thats pretty good
How did it run on the stock motor,I’m in need of a tuner for mine atm but great video @your tuner
You need a Maxxecu tuner?
@@straightsixracingyes am looking for someone to tune my car stock motor for now
@n54sparrow92 send me a message on Instagram I’ll get you connected. Same @ as my TH-cam.

I personally like the older cars because I get really good deals on them!
What’s the update on this build ?
Still waiting on my custom engine harness 🥲

8hp swaps are getting a ton of support! Excited to explore the transmission and its limits.

@njdorset1050 sounds like a hell of a build!

Given the cost of new DI injectors. PI only starts making sense.
Agreed.
used maxxecu need flash the 8hp gearbox?
Using the Maxxecu to control 8hp

i see the website i see [a custom MaxxECU TCU firmware needs to be reflashed using an external tool.
Snoopy 2.0 to da moon
Nice build but that turbo manifold is going to limit you
I’ve sold that kit and plan to go custom :)

K series make these look like walmart tractor engines in terms of design and stock potential reliability
Makw more videos
Make more videos about the x5m been over a year
ah yes, 8 horsepower 335xi build
