You and Dean are great . Dean is the coding Guru the both of you will help all of us BMW owners out !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Reset the DME adaptations!
Must be done to erase how the system has adapted to the previous manifold, so it can adapt to the new manifold's behavior from scratch. Factory instructions are to reset, then idle for ten seconds, then shut off. They don't say this next step, but right after that, do some hard highway driving winding out in a few gears, and drive generally on the gas a lot over the first tankful.
Its amazing how hardly anyone ever says to do it, but should be the first step after any engine performance mod.
Btw did you measure intake MAF flow before and after? 1/2 the percentage of MAF flow increase is ~ the power increase at any given RPM.
Well I'm glad that someone on this channel knows what they're talking about... maybe you should do the modifications and let this clown do the lotto scratcher videos!
ok. then how do you reset the DME adaptations? can you tell us pls?
Great video. I'm excited to hear how you come out with the tune/remap. I have a 3 stage intake in my basement waiting to go on my E90. It would be great not to have to spend $500 on a tune from AA.
I've got an N51 & N52. When I swapped out the starter I noticed on the N52 there were 2 plugs just hanging out with a couple clips holding them just off the manifold. Now I know what they are! Confirmed they are actually used on the SULEV N51. Nice little AHA moment.
Will the 3 stage manifold fit my 523i n52. 2.5?
Its the exact same engine as the 525i isnt it?
I ordered mine few months ago for my 06 325 xi .do this charcoal filter delete air scoops and a sprint booster plugs and new coils and it's more then enough for a daliy. No light's nothing not tuned yet.
Have you checked Bimmerlabs.com they have a free tune that you download yourself, it’s a stock tune from 530i US model that will work with your car .
Which ZB number is the 530i LCI tune?
7633348 or 7633344?
Super video Nathan with maximum kudos to you and the BMW DOCTOR. You guys make it all so easy with your detailed video and un contestable knowledge. Thank you both
Love your videos bud, I just replaced my X3 N52 cylinder head (by myself) thanks to your excellent videos, and I'm not even a mechanic. Thanks Nathan.
I have done some research of my own and I figured I need to replace actual header to Euro spec. And intake as you did. And exhaust manifold. And of course Euro coding. Have you confirmed that you have gain extra HP with Dyno. If you can confirm that it would be great!!
What kind of impact on the gas mileage does this have? Noob here, weighing the pros/cons.
Would this work with the n52k engine on a 2012 328i e93 with a black aluminum cover ?
Yes. Hard part is programing and coding.
I’m learning more about my 06 330xi xdrive each day. I have the metal valve cover with the 3 stage manifold with the single port with DISA valves. Right now I had finish up with the new CCV replacement but I have the P0171 and P0174 codes. Not air leaks so hopefully now after I get my new MAF in it fixes my codes for running lean. Otherwise I don’t know if it’s something else. Only things left to replace that’s new and OEM replacements would be the VANOs and IGN coils. I get some sputtering while under load which I know could be like 5 things but I guess this car will be fresh lol.
The stock internals are rated for 230hp, so why do I want to throw 290hp at the wheels?
is it me or do all N52's look dirty, no matter how clean the valve cover is lol
thanks for documenting the swap
It’s the magnesium
Would you happen to know part # for the crank ventilation hoses that everyone seems to be breaking when doing this swap? Trying to gather parts for my swap.
So that would be well over 300hp. Which is the same as N54 without the unreliable twin turbos.
YES!
Very interesting Nathan. Can't wait to get an update on the fix.
Hi, first of all i want to say - great video and lots of info. I have 528i e60 and I can get cheap intake of 530i, but the question is how you connect the third disa? Where do you take electricity for it? Also did you solve problem with mapping? Regards
Third DISA?
Hello Nathan can you tell me why my heater in my x5 3.0 2005 keep coming on by itself thank you
looks like a fun project. hope you get the programming figured out
What program did you use to flash the transmission, because im going through the same problem
Great vid, Nathan, as always. I cant wait to see the outcome. You guys know I've been waiting to see this since I heard you were going to! I'm ready to do mine right after. I'm on pre lci e90 base, so I dont forsee the flashing mismatch hitting me like it has you...I hope. Best of luck mates, I'll be watching and rooting for you
i belive its expensive cuz its still N/A not turbocharged so its expensive to get more HP from an N/A Great video btw
I was really excited to find this video but after watching the whole video and searching your channel I could not find any follow up videos that showed the end results.. I'm glad you are making loads of money on TH-cam but making a video that leaves viewers wondering what the fix was and the end results is a huge waste of time.. you failed to make the car run correctly and never posted a follow up video... to me that is a huge fail. I guess its more lucrative to make stupid misleading lotto scratcher videos! LAME!!
The bmw doctor is full of crap. He couldn’t get this to work for Nathan.
@@seanpaul3050 sounds about right, he is more interested in making a buck off misleading people... “I can’t fix anything so I’ll just dupe people instead!! What a douche bag!!!
Wait I have a 2007 bmw 530xi is that already the upgrade version?
Love your vids man. I learn something new every time I watch. Thanks!
Can I do this on my 525xi?
You had the coding issues in this episode, did you ever work it out? What did you code the car with, I never saw an additional video on the coding.
PCV heater on the manifold can catch fire and burn the car to the ground. I have seen one melt but not catch fire. There is a recall for this.
That is on both manifolds, 3 stage and regular
Right! Did you get programming to work?
where do u get the extra plug for the extra disa flap on the stock wiring harness??
Did you use a k+ dcan cable for this or something else
Can this be done on a N52 BMW F10 523i?
I've been wondering about doing the swap also.... thanks for the info once again.... and keep doing the live chat it is very helpful... how much difference will this make mpg
It should make it get better mpg, but like I said its not really cost effective to do it
2006 330i which mods should I get, listed starting with highest gains to lowest?
Great video!
Nuts for the intake manifold.
Are they aluminium /non reusable, or steel /reusable?
Reusable I believe
Do you have a diy video for taking the intake manifold off of an N52 engine?
Thank god I have a 530xi that already came with this intake but I don’t have a y hose I have a single hose on the back side of my intake but I wanna know is it a big difference ?
hi nathan,i was super lucky to pick up the disa manifold and a dme from an auto 330i.if i replace these things will it be plug and play on my 6 speed 325i n52?
?
where do i get my flash and software to program ecu i have a 2006 325i e90 cat delete new germn performance headers 3 stage dual disa engine has 76,000 on it i have origional ecu but need o delete cat and program it for best performance
Hey Nathan on my e90 325i there’s a crankcase v vent valve (a pressure regulator) will I need to swap that over on to the new manifold or will i need that new breather hose on there
Are these N52’s direct injection?
No
What’s the small black box next to the intake manifold ? Mines doesn’t have that
agreed no way am i gonna pay 2000 for 30 horses.
phrozen06 they are 280$ on eBay
Aidan Driskill low key happy i have the n51 because it’s relatively the same as the 52 but all i have to do is remove the stupid 2nd cat and charcoal filter and that would be about all ide need to do
put in some headers, milvs ive got the 3 stage intake manifold stock amd i could make about 250whp at least ide think and hope so maybe a little less 240 more than likely
What state do u live on! I will come
With my bmw right the way on your expert hands(got some stuff to fix)
I got a 3 stage manifold off a 06 330 with a blown engine (free). However there are some things wrong with it. All the wires to the DISA valves and side terminals have been cut, the manifold had a good amount of oil in it, and I have no idea what connects to the spade connectors mounted to the side of the manifold. I have a pic but can't post it obviously. If anyone could offer some assistance on wiring this I'd appreciate it.
hi is the a flash you can do from a n52 2005 e90 258bhp to 272bhp thanks
Can this mod be done on a e92 328i?
Happy fourth Nathan, think I'm leaving M52 land and moving to the N52 neighborhood. Looking at 09 128i 6spd. Hope all is well! Great Vid 👍
Save up a little more and get the 135i brodie
Trust me the list of random problems the n54 AND n55 is ridiculous. My mechanic tells me hes happy I chose N/A
I know this is old but if u see this Nathan did this make any "BUTT DYNO" difference?? was or is it worth the time $ and energy?? 2009 328xi just picked up 1 owner young lady driven cream puff 80k. thought id try and find some reliable performance gains w it!! thanks in advance
Nathen...is there anything similar to get more hp from a m54 engine?
What about this mod with a supercharger kit installed both at the same time.
How much power potential would that be ?
I wouldn’t honestly recommend boosting n52 they don’t handle boost that well I mean you prob upgrade some internals to forged internals even then it still won’t be able to handle much boost
i have lots of bmw 325i e90 parts for sale some new i did not use some used still good
Hi, I'm upgrading the intake manifold for a three stage on a n52, can you tell me which connector is for the big DISA? The longer or the shorter one, thanks 🙏🏽
Did you pull it off?
How does the intakes on the head look? Need blasting?
Hi buddy, can I use a 330i computer with the key, instead of flashing it?
How much boos I can get for my 523i 170hp if I upgrade my manifold intake?
My 2.5 came with the three stage manifold, how much can I get out of it?
Was dr dean a channel too?
So did this new intake and install actually work, Nathan?
Can you guys send me a how to on the flash process. I was having trouble doing myself.
Hey man which E60 do you have and can I do this on my E90 323
What’s the cost on the win cam p (I think that’s what you said) the tuning software do you have a link for it?
Bimmer geeks is free
So does the n52 come with both disa connecting wires even on the 1 stage manifold? Or do I need to order a new harness with two risa connecting wires
Comes with both. One is spare.
It s plug and play.
can i do this on a 2009 x5 30i ?
Did the BMW doctor ever sort this out for you ? Did you ever get this to work or not.
No its not possible
I have the n53 engine is it all the same as the n52
Can you send me a link with that manifold name or semthing to order it thanks
Yo I’m super excited about this👀wow
goodshit, dude! goodluck on the flash.
Hi! I have an N52B25 fitted on my ‘06 2.5i Z4. Baseline HP’s about 170hp thereof. Can I fit this particular N52B30’s intake manifold for my car?
No.
It worked
BMW Doctor more info on the tuning software
@@tinygunner4703 the tuning software is a software that re writes the bmw only ECUS any given time with ease you put in the power you want and it does it all for you and adjust the rest
Did you try to flash a tune from a 330i?
FYI everything Cardone makes is junk!! Good video thanks.
hey man what about an n54 intake and throttle body, would that even fit and make any difference
I think they are the same as the 330 not sure tho. I would think if the Tb was wider you would need an adapter anyways
Nathan you rock!
What you saying wincadpee?
This this ever work out?
Where can I get all the software tools?
Great video!
I just bought an 07 530 last week. The badge in the back says 530ix but my insurance says it’s 530i based of the VIN. How can I be certain that mine is 530i?
Should be a differential in the front of the car.
Enter your vin on the realoem website
Do you have four wheel drive or not? That's all the x means.
Hello ..
Is there is anyway to take ecu data from 530 and put it in 525 ecu ?
mostafaabbas6 trying to figure it out too. But as i know, you can take 530i intake manifold and put to 525i change programm and you got 530i
@@ahh5292
Big difference between the manifolds ?
Keep after it 🤔, y'all get there
n51 comes with stage 3 correct? the sulev model i think comes with stage 3 if I'm wrong lmk
No only the 330i does 3 stage intake manifold wont work with a n51 engine
No
@@Motorsports_3 wrong. Some SULEV n51 cars has DISA valves
What tune is best for this swap ?
Do both manifolds take the same throttle bodies ?
Any upgrades for a e39 540i. Reliability and/or power upgrades?
99 and up the timing chain guides go and its almost unfixable
They have been replaced. It’s a 6 speed, I wanna put a m5 lsd in the rear and then maybe some NOS for power instead of supercharger. Then a LS once the engine goes. But any upgrades to keep the engine as healthy as can be or better?
What? An 530i intake being oily!!! 😜
Damn Nathan. You piss O'Reilly Auto Parts off or something? 4 of their non-skippable commercials in a row during this video.
haha all of those "don't buy parts from Oreilley's" videos I did must of really hit home
@@NathansBMWWorkshop oh yeah. Believe me, I know......
@@NathansBMWWorkshop btw found a place with cheap bmw motors. 2001 e46 84k, 3 yr warranty, 900 shipped!
What e90’s come with this intake setup!?
330i
328i SULEV
I have a 2005 330i 258 hp uk spec does it already have this intake or is this something I can do?
this is for the e90 series and e60. your 2005 is an e46. The e46 330i did have a manifold with a single DISA. Nate or Dean please correct me if I'm wrong.
@@tehBika in UK they might've had the e90 in 2005
tehBika you are correct all m54 has a single vacuum operated disa valve
Your car will already have this if it’s 258bhp model
Yes mate you already have this if you have a Uk spec car just by your Bhp that’s with 3 stage manifold
Would this work on my 08 E60 550i ?
Why in god's name would you think it would? Bruh
You have a v8 good sir. This mod is for engines with the inline 6.
I need a tune for this where did you get it done
Damn. Looks like I won't be doing this to my 07 328i after all.
Why not
@@nickc8569 it's expensive and I don't even have anyone who can code the ecu for it. Maybe if I was near nathan or dean or someone like them...
first:)
Does this work for n52b25?
Is this the same intake on my 07 Z4 3.0si?
Yes it is
If I have a US 2006 330i do I already have this intake?
this is 5 series
@@d2an3i yeah I know, they share engines but he doesn't say what kind of 5 series it's going into. If it's from an N52 530i i should have it but just wanna make sure
Yes.
I was reading about some other manifold that can up performance significantly on my car, you guys know off the top of your head?
you already have it
