  • We need more power! Keep it classy, keep it OEM takes a back seat in this episode as we put Infinitas Supercharger on the 530i. But how much power does it add? We do before/after drives and dyno.

It started life as a 520i and I have since thrown that lump away and replaced it with M54B30. Every step you have taken and presented has mirrored either what I have, am, or will do to this car. Thank you for the brilliant content and for being the reason I bought the best cars I have ever owned.

      @lolish1234 Před 6 měsíci +23

      At such low boost it's not much of an issue + its more convenient (and common) to run meth injection paired with these superchargers because there's not much room for piping. There is however room for piping if you go the turbo route

    Sreten, I see you attack each platform as if you have no fear or concern. You act as if you already know absolutely everything you could possibly find good or bad. I have many friends who are mechanics by trade and they after many years still do not possess the level of confidence you exhibit. You already know the strengths and weaknesses of each variant and sub-variant. You show us armchair mechanics that indeed our favorite marquee does not require an advanced degree in physics to maintain or upgrade our vehicles. Thank you for what you do and for bringing us along with you. I for one am deeply indebted to you. Keep up the excellence.

    Just what I needed on a dreary Tuesday morning! Can't wait for this one :-) I feel reassured in my thoughts watching the autobahn pulls that it didn't seem, honestly, THAT much quicker and the results on the dyno show how badly you're being affected with high intake temps. Definitely will benefit hugely from an intercooler if that's a route you choose to go down.

  • @craelectronics
    @craelectronics Před 6 měsíci +13

    Interesting build. I notice some changes in your videos recently. You spend less time in showing the disassembly :-/ It is now more of a ripping apart which makes it more difficult to see how it is being done properly without breaking everything. It actually feels a bit of a rush and stresses me. I enjoyed the calmness of the older videos more. That being said, the step away from keep it OEM is of course your decision and 90+% of the enthusiast community will love it, so definitely a wise move to keep the channel growing. However, personally I am not the biggest fan of leaving OEM. This orange pipe looks fugly and the new airfilter is a joke. Sreten of the old days might have spayed the pipe matt black installed a proper filter and hide it away by modifying the original box - but of course I get it, the build is not finished on that, so I am curious how it proceeds. And please tell us more about the Alpina gearbox software for us folks who have a similar gearbox but prefer to avoid bigger mechanical surgeries to improve it.
    As interesting it is to see the mods on project Frankfurt and Rottweil, I hope we continue to see also some bone stock restaurations, which I would also hope for the Alpina B10V8S belonging to. That one is so rare, that it would be a shame to see its spec changed from how it was build by Alpina when new.

    Ty for video. I was owner e39 530 with 5speed manual transmission but on fortunately in Russia they are all very rusty and expensive and not so much parts. But this is great car and I was happy when I drive e39. Hello from Moscow and thank you again!!!

    Really cool project! I had a 520i with a 525 engine in it. Had to replace the 520i engine as it started smoking and ticking. Didn’t really like the m54 engine. It had a healthy compression and brand new ccv but still consumed loads of oil. Switched to an e60 with the n52 engine and never looked back. E34 and e60 are my favorite 5 series so far and I own both ❤
