Isn't suppose that 7.5 inches FMIC are intended for single/upgraded twins?

Good ol yellow headlamps. Mine are same rn. We’ll get around to it.

Damn it's been time. Glad to see them still coming. My mosfets just went to shyt.. perks of MSD80

Yaaron says:

Can confirm, installing that intercooler on a 335is with the bumper still on was not fun.

Phew thought after your last video you had moved away from making n54 videos. Glad that’s not the case!!

Angelo Frederic says:

Great vid, I've installed a VRSF intercooler on my 2016 428i (manual). Great upgrade from stock.

are people concerned about the mosfets in the DME? I barely know what I'm talking about, but I'm assuming that's what you're referring to. anyway, I know someone from one of our N54/N55 tuning groups in germany who is known to do quality upgrades for the N54 DMEs to make them bulletproof FYI.

Hi, i have a long going problem with my n54. When I have my coldstart or if it is on the warm temperature. My exhaust smells extremely bad to fuel. And when I drive normally there is no problem. But at high RPM. Like if put foot on the gas heavily the car goes crazy. The rpms drop quickly and go back to normal in seconds and this goes on. We checked the logs. My HPFP LPFP and timing drop directly. My injectors are changed. Lpfp is changed. Hpfp is changed. The rails are changed. Now we are going to change the EKPM fuel pump module. What do you think it will cause this?

Taylor says:

ARM makes a single piece 3" hose to connect the intercooler outlet to charge pipe! Highly recommend it with two Murray constant tension clamps

Shawzy says:

Not even a minute in and this is already one of your most entertaining videos. I’m excited for the new era. Welcome back!

A drift car is like automotive circle jerking. The car is neither fast on the track nor component on the street.
