Would you recommend going stage 3 for both tanks. Or just the main tank. I’m currently running stages 2 walbros for each tank. Tuner told me to go stage 3 but I don’t know if I need to do both tanks
Mate we should get together sometime. Id love to show you my 09 335i e92 6MT. Car has literally everything needed to make 800WHP. Ford 8.8 rear end and polly bushings. Once piece drive shaft, Doc race top mount kit with a GT turbo making around 31PSI. Running Stock Location BMP intake manifold with 750cc fuel injector running a motiv controll
No issues with the type of driving i do. However. throw on some semi slicks and start going rounds corners flat out, with 1/4 of a tank or less and you will have issues.
One guy in the whatsapp is running a 535 on its own Hpfp use to be down to like 1500psi or less at the top of rev range now its 2450psi at the top same tune - 450vs535

I'm wondering if they sent you a blue connector that didn't fit the other blue connector as well?? That's what I got LOL. As you said "You get what you pay for" "Sometimes" LOL.
I didnt film it when i did the e92 back in 2019, as i was a bit unsure. But ended up doing the same stage 2 in the vargas car in this video here. th-cam.com/video/Z9JJzC33gXY/w-d-xo.html&t Its about half of the way through from memroy.
I personally think it will be fine for all uses except for circuit track work. For daily driving, street racing and even 1/4 mile times, a solid bucket should be fine. What does get difficult is getting the two filters to fit in the bucket.
QUESTION is it correct that you drove with stage 2 without venturi but with bucket because i would like a stage 2 walbro 450 but it is unclear with the venturi
I believe the better solution to this is a single pump, no Venturi, with the added Hydromat. The hydromat allows the pump to never go dry, as is what the Venturi was doing by filling the bucket. By cutting the bucket, you can’t drive below 1/4 tank or risk going lean during hard pulls/corners. Another downside is that two pumps pull too many amps and blow the fuse, leaving you stranded. Anyway , good explanation for the two pumps.
You are on the money!!! Mine with the single pump, no Venturi was perfect for FBO e60 power levels, but I’ll need the extra pump for when I get the port injection on and really wind the boost up. Fuel level did concern me, especially with e85, it doesn’t get great range. But we’ll see how it all pans out. I’m starting with the cheapest option and we’ll work up from there when it starts becoming an issue. 🤘🏼my fingers are tightly crossed.
@@ZeroTo60Tube Awesome vid! Just wondering where you got the BMP Walboro Fuel Pump Fitting in Aus to avoid US shipping costs? I really want to try a stage 2 DIY so I can go from my current e30MHD map to the e50 upgrade on the cheap so been lightly researching. I'd like to try and keep the venturi so that it's less risky if my fuel level drops. Do you have a vid on when you did that or other bits you recommend for it? Sorry, couldn't find it.
@@UmbrielliaMedia Hi There, unfortunately i had to get them from the states. I got them on the black friday sale and with a few other bits from those guys. Certainly helps a bit.
@@ZeroTo60Tube Black Friday, of course! @t This Aus guy used $50 of Aeroflow bits, maybe that's the way to go even if it takes way more space and connections. Keeping that Venturi down and in seems tricky though and he had to drill tiny zip tie holes in the bottom and I can't see where that fuel filter would fit in. Also did you have a vid of your stage 2 bucketed DIY?

Great to see how it runs, my cable arrived, so will fire up the beast tomorrow and check out the error codes
My lpfp sits around 68+ psi most of the time, on hard accel its in 70s something.
Some people say that you run out of fuel with a bucketless system when your gauge still indicates fuel in the tank?
Great work guys, that's well beyond what I am capable of. Went all over my head, but you guys know what your doing. 👍
Thanks so much! If you ever have any questions just shoot them through!
Sick content brotha! I’ll be running this set up soon. Thanks for the DIY 👍🏻
Thanks for watching, we really appreciate it. Bit of a boring one, but an important part of making the N54 scream!

Are you based in Australia?
Cool, youtube.. thanks for the recommendation after i just bought my precision stage 3 kit 😅
Can you send me a link to where I can buy the BMP fitting you mentioned around the 4:40 mark as the link is dead. Thanks
You have a link for where to supply this?
@Zero to 60 how did this pump hold up when you were at the track any starvation ?
No issues with the type of driving i do. However. throw on some semi slicks and start going rounds corners flat out, with 1/4 of a tank or less and you will have issues.

Where you get that y fitting brother with the hose .
Prescision Raceworks used to sell them
Ik this video came out a while ago but is there any alternative fitting to use since bmp don’t sell that fitting anymore
I am sorry, but actually havent seen any fitting. I have seen places selling flex-able hose to do the job.
I'm wondering if they sent you a blue connector that didn't fit the other blue connector as well?? That's what I got LOL. As you said "You get what you pay for" "Sometimes" LOL.
ohhh my i can't remember, was so long ago
Do you guys have a video of the stage 2 single Walbro 450 install. Can't seem to find it on yt. Love the videos you guys are awesome.

@@ZeroTo60Tube great! Thanks heaps for the response mate. Much appreciated 👍
Im going to go with this same setup, But can i keep the bottom? I want a bucketed setup, so I won’t suffer from fuel starvation

What fittings did u use? that link doesnt work anymore:(
They were BMP walbro adapters
This is clever
Thanks for the video, just got a new subscriber! 😬
Thanks for the sub!
QUESTION is it correct that you drove with stage 2 without venturi but with bucket because i would like a stage 2 walbro 450 but it is unclear with the venturi
Correct, have done it on 2 cars now with zero issues.
@@ZeroTo60Tube thanks for the Quick answer! Love the content
1 stupid question , does N54 e92/90 comes with 1 bucket in fuel tank or 2 buckets like one on each side. Just curious to know :)
It has a module on both sides. Fuel pump on one side and fuel reg on the other.
Dumb question, if I do stage 2 fuel upgrade, its just 1 pump to replace right?
What is the signal wire?
I run my setup from the JB4 port injection controller.
I believe the better solution to this is a single pump, no Venturi, with the added Hydromat. The hydromat allows the pump to never go dry, as is what the Venturi was doing by filling the bucket.

Hydromat's are more costly than I expected but pretty cool. www.enginemaster.com.au/fuel-cell-pickups/ are they that much better than the Venturi?
