Alright, so here a is a long awaited update on the N20 build! I should be able to get more content out on a regular basis, explanation in the video! Thanks guys and sorry for the long break!
N20/26/B48 are not bad motor people just prefer the iconic I6 motor. Don’t let these people fool you. This motor have potential. 🔥🔥 because of you people will start making 800hp n20/26 🔥🔥
I’ve been waiting for a video for a minute bro looks great I’m glad you’re taking your time and making sure she runs strong and makes vroom tish sounds
I haven't had a ton of time or funds but since things are slowing down I should be able to get working on it. I think I am going to start with building a proper manifold. I already have the dimensions on where it needs to sit with the one I have, just have to all the material!
@@projectrandomCO totally understandable man the car life is expensive especially when doing a complete built from your home take your time she’ll rip soon enough. Also me personally I’d try a 2 inch inlet for the turbo to build boost but hey it’s up to you looks good so far!
I was thinking 2" as well since that's what my subaru was. I really want to build a proper manifold now that I have the welder all set up. It won't be pretty but I think I can do it.
You should try and get a cheap f30 bmw 330i with the b48 and try and do the same because there's only one video out on someone building that motor and its on a 330e and Nvardi makes a kit for b48 just not sure where to find the head torque specs. ALso the b48/46 is closed decking so it might be easier to work on and big boost also makes a turbo for it i think you would just have to fab up some mounting brackets like you did with the one here. Looks good and wish you all good luck with your build!
If you do end up doing this I would get an aftermarket oil filter housing they're nutorious for going out between 60-90k miles and im dealing with one on my car and its not a cheap fix. $2200 from the dealership and most of that is labor becuase you have to take off the intake manfold and i believe fcp euro makes a metal one you can get for like $400 and it will save you all the hassle from having to replace it later on. But BMW did later reinforce it with more plastic where it would usually crack on the g20 chasis.
good update, for the smaller original oe turbo stage 2 is what 19psi or something as a limiter, i think if bm3 did a custom tune for you, they could allow you to push that up at your own risk of course. when i watch other tuners with 2.0L and larger turbos they take to the moon 40-80psi max boost on a dyno. Even the oe turbo at say 38psi would likely show impressive gains, especially with larger injectors
I have the larger injectors and pump but I really think I need to get the turbo manifold set up right. From some research, the 2.5" is even overkill for some LS application's so I definitely want to shrink that down. I really want to try and build a proper manifold, would make for some good content too!
@avgfinnishdude Bader built racing guy takes stock subaru engine to something near 80 psi over 1000hp on a larger turbo you can build the boost pressure with a semi built engine like he has here
Damn that sucks, any idea what happened? I haven't posted in a while cause I finally got it running perfect and it spun a rod bearing. I actually just started working on it today and got the motor pulled.
@@projectrandomCO blew piston 1, no compression. We were running stage 2 with all the goodies. Mechanic thinks we had to much boost running. Motor comes out In about a month from now for a complete tear down & assessment. Will keep you in the loop.

BMW N20 G-600 ENGINE rated for 600hp comes built it will run you about 8k from ghassan
hellll yeah bro makin us n20s look good appreciate the upload
love the content. ur helping us slow boys out big time!

@@projectrandomCO hey man if it works it works no harm in that 👍
Nao vejo a hora de o projeto estar concluído, um abraço de portugal ! 🇵🇹

@projectrandomCO definitely I'll be watching!
oe turbo at 38psi? dafaq

@@tgshark1 that mitsu original turbo aint doin past 23psi
Keep up the content 💪
Have just blown my n20 motor, no idea if it can be rebuilt.
I have been quoted between 12-16k for second hand engine replacement.

Hello bro, actually building my n20 also, any way to contact you and get some info, maybe share some knowledge? Thanks so much
Hey, you can shoot me an email through my website!
Bro I wanna see you drive it
I would hit up navardi for tuning
You must not have watched the whole video 😃
hope
