No trheads just doing step by step.
It is stock internals m60b44 and daily driver.
Next issue is air filter,need better one,now it resist 50hp. http://www.bmcairfilters.com/conical...0p_d683_1.aspx
When that is solved then e85
SC is spinning now 56000 rpm and there is better bearings good for 70000 rpm.

Still wanna see a build thread. Headers are gonna be an expensive custom job im sure..
Also are you talking 450 BHP or RWHP? Cuase even the stock headers are a tight fit!

M62 with S62 crankshaft and Darton sleeved with Arrow rods and JE pistons. The intake runners are a part of the aftercooler kit. I will powder coat again after I get a decent tune and drive her for a while. And Vortech V2 Ti supercharger with 034 Motorsport WI. Stock headers on 616 rwhp/580 rwtq on 11 psi.

Wow... Thank you. How is it? Becuase thats as far as i can see myself going.. 600rwhp MAX...
Is it true wtf shit my pants scary fast??? I want that lol..
Id just love to kill a GT-R from a roll! lol in my old Beamer.!!!!!
also, after seeing 516's video's... How much power is that? lol geeeez and what size slicks???

My first day driving my 540i/6 after the new engine install and s/c kit, I went sideways 3x after a stop sign. Partly because I also have a Clutch Masters FX 850 racing/street clutch. But I am used to it now.
BigM62 you can have much more power with headers and less heat.
Haven´t got better airfilter but did minor modifications and get better responce and some power.

Look like there lots more power to be made from the vortech kit on the m60b40.
I've had my ESS 7psi kit and even with a lowly 330rwhp it goes really well. The old owner installed a 9psi pulley and it reportedly made just over 400rwhp but he removed it as he stated there was belt slip and the car was too fast. Maybe he was mistaking belt slip for ignition breakdown as I suffered this even at 7psi. There was a strange 4 pronged bosch plug in there and I replaced them on advice to the 1 colder ngk and gapped lower and all is good.
I like the look of the intercooler. Is it commercially available on its own. ?
also can the ESS software cope with the 9psi pulley and still run the car safely? I plan also to install the water/meth injection.

It depends how You drive, how hot engine is usually. Going to smaller waterpump pulley is one good thing. partnumber 4 and 104mm

There is many things making it hard to say is it safe to drive with 9 psi pulley but if You have good exhaust and gasoline pump so it should be ok.
So, if i wanna buy a bolt on kit with a blower that will make big power long run. What should i get?
I know ill need meth, pullys, intercoolers, tuning over and over.. Ect but i want 500+ RWHP. So what kit comes with a blower that can support it in the end..?

Not all at once guys! Today im looking into doing MLS head gaskets before i run boost just to ensure the HG are fesh and extra strong. And i can boost a bit more right from the start.. 9-12psi.~ Maybe.

The mls will lower the comp ratio so technically u can run more boost or more aggressive timing.
Intercooler will help. When I sort a water/air intercooler I'll post up pics.
Are those eBay ones any good ?

Wait....What? I believe the belt slip, but he said it was too fast?
Baaaaahahahaha!
The ESS software is meant to offer a conservative baseline for the 7lb pulley. If you decide to step up to a smaller pulley, you may want to consider a programmable WAR chip to optimize the performance. You should also add a tensioner to get a better wrap around the smaller pulley.
...then eliminate all vacuum leaks and get it properly tuned

....oh and get an intercooler.
Gone but not forgotten:
'95 540i/6 M-Sport. GA65474. Alpineweiss/Parchment.
Supercharger project
Yes the intercooler is prob #1.
Also ive jist picked up another Strim for my e36. I also have the better bearings and seals from 928motorsport. They also have an upgraded impeller to give output similar to Ttrim which looks a good alternative to make more boost at same impeller rpm.
Anyone use this upgraded impeller.
