Aftermarket Intake Manifold would ideal! I hope all goes well with R&D and actually being able to put new products out for the N20/N26 market. Cheers!
Slowly getting there, Covid has delayed alot of progress on all of our builds
Very cool, thanks for posting 👍 wish you guys were in New Zealand would really like to do this on my car.
Cheers! No one local for you to go to?
@@NavardiTuned as far as I know nobody in NZ has rebuilt an N20 to this level. Really looking forward to the outcome of this build, reliability etc.👍
Hoeveel hp heeft u n20 nu want ik heb charge pipe dvt + valf vrsf intercooler en downpipe wat kan ik halen met stage 2 chiptunnig is 300whp mogelijk met als wat ik op mijn n20 heb ?? Heb je nieuw video's van u n20 f30 ???
New Video just released with more coming
Most Power you see on Stage 2 N20 with FBO is about 290-300WHP on Dynojet with good quality 93 Oct (98 RON) E85 and upgraded HPFP would see you around the 310-320WHP range on Dynojet and about 480NM of TQ
Love this channel, thanks so much for making the videos
I have to get forged internals
What’s the avg cost of doing it? Gotta start saving some money
Around $20,000 AUD including Parts and Labour, Turbo upgrades and custom Turbo Manifolds are on top of that cost.
This is a great build - Excited to see where it goes!
I am currently on the hunt for oil pan to oil pickup clearances for this engine. Trying to design a baffle system for the aftermarket aluminum pan. Did you come up with a solution for this? Cheers
Hey there, yeah the clearance between the oil pickup and bottom of the sump is about 5mm. The pump pretty much sits in the sump itself.
I have tackled baffles in the stock plastic sump (RWD Cars) already head over to my build log I believe page 2 or 3 I discuss it f30.bimmerpost.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1566013
Thanks for the info! - wow, looks like the stock pan dimensions aren’t going to work for what I’m thinking in this case. Hard to believe this engine has been around for this long and there’s no aftermarket solution to such a glaring issue. - Look forward to more updates
Cheers
@@robertcrowson7865 It is a shame, However we're aiming to try and change that, atleast now we have managed to push the community to make Fuelling upgrades, now we just need to convince companies to make N20 Off the Shelf upgrades for the sump.
Question for ya! I’m rebuilding the motor back to factory spec after a timing chain failure and just purchased a stage 1 turbo. Car has cat less down pipe, after market charge/boost pipes and an injen intake. I was thinking of doing these ARP rod bolts just as added security now that the motor is being rebuilt anyway, I’m just not sure where to find them or what the PN is???
Not affiliated But same ARP bolts as the M54/M52 here is a link:

Hey what up bro I have a2015 bmw 528i n20 engine I have low compression on 3 cylinder 60psi I want to rebuild it can this engine be honed like a regular engine ? I don’t want performance just stock car still looks good
It cannot
Please refer to the wiki
bmwenginewiki.com/en/N20EngineWiki/ForgedN20
Please make more vids on this build I’m very curious
In time :) We will have some content soon regarding Darton WET Sleeves we have made. Unfortunately the current global situation is still affecting us here in Australia
Could my high compression N20 make 400hp?
Not stock internals realistically without really running on the edge of failure - I say this with the understanding you would be fitting something like a Borg Warner EFR 6758 0.64 AR with E85 that would be the closest setup that would ride the edge of possible survival -- Again You shouldn't be running an engine unless you still have atleast 15% headroom before failure at a minimum not 1-2%
hey any updates?
There will be something coming soon, apologies for the delay.
so final how many hp ？
Rod bolts were more a precautionary measure, on 98RON (93 Octane) on stage 2 turbo at 24PSI @ 4500RPM and 33.4lbs/min at 5700RPM on a low reading Dyno Dynamics Dyno we made 210 rear wheel KW which is equivalent to 323WHP on DynoJet. Since then we ported the turbo outlet to remove some airflow restrictions and ran 25PSI @4500 - 7000RPM (gained 3-4lbs/min at 5700rpm so 36.8lbs/min), but we never tested the results on the dyno, however roughly a 30hp gain for the 3-4lbs/min gained. We have run E85 with Port Injection, which is quicker but haven't had time to get it into the dyno. In all honesty Stage 2 turbos don't really push the N20 stock motor and aren't worth it for the cost, you're better off fitting a n55 EWG stock turbo to the motor. My (Harry) Customer on a BM3 custom tune ran a 112mph trap speed (Currently the world record for documented N20 QTR mile Trap Speeds) on a stock N20 with a stage 2 Turbo on 93 Oct. which is about 330-350WHP.
@@BrandonLeTran it is abit more expensive, but the MHI is a stage 1 turbo, whilst the n55 would be more considered a Stage 3 turbo.
