Idk what the hell bmw did but getting nearly 30mpg out of a V8 is nuts

@reidjordan4545 6 месяцев назад

well its not very big V8 wise (over half a liter smaller than the current smallest American V8) and with twin turbos they're able to keep them out of boost. Driving super economically and kinda hypermiling you can get these things to around 40MPG. or you could be like me and get not even half that in my 4cyl 330i

@johannbrown935 6 месяцев назад

@@reidjordan4545 you’re right relative to other v8s 4.4l is small but to think a car that comes out the factory with 450+ hp with a tune is still able to put up such respectable mileage blows my mind

Hey just a little tip, When you're speaking and explaining everything could you lower the background music or just do like a fade out and fade back in?

@jbcars 2 месяца назад

I’ve finally fixed this in later videos! Realized my software was automatically making the music too loud

@dariusGarage 5 месяцев назад

Regarding the upgraded wheels... I'd do a test fit before hand to see if they fit without rubbing... that's quite a bit wider! Not to mention that you will need wider wheels to accommodate those tires as the fellow on the forum mentioned there. Also your speedo will read incorrectly since the overall diameter is an entire inch taller! Its so easy to screw yourself over when buying wheel setups so be careful. On a side note, glad to hear that the N63 has proven reliable when tuned, hopefully mine will do well too!

@jbcars 5 месяцев назад

Thanks for that info! I already encounter this on my BMW F30. I know with the winters on now which are the stock wheels it reads 3mph too high and with the bigger wheel and tire diameter in summer, it reads perfectly with what the GPS is reading. I am going to make a video in the spring when I put the summers back on both cars but I have already mounted the new tires to the black wheels for the M550i since my rims were already wide enough! Also test fitted the front one weekend when I was bored since that was my only concern! Can’t wait for the summer it will look amazing with the two together! Also this is my setup if you are curious Rims: Front: 20x9 Rear: 20x10 Stock tires from last summer: Michelin PS4S Front: 245/35/20 Rear: 275/30/20 New Setup next summer: Michelin PS4S Front 275/35/20 Rear: 305/30/20

Dude i'm looking to tune a 750Li with the N63TU2. Its a 2016 so I have the slightly older coolant lines that leak. Would you recommend tuning it still? Just trying to make it a sleeper build.

@jbcars 6 месяцев назад

When tuning I have noticed the coolant itself can run very cooler if you set max cooling mode on. I highly recommend because it keeps the engine cooler for more repetitive pulls. Also would recommend replacing the lines if they are leaking just to be safe

@gurnoordosanjh3288 6 месяцев назад

broo how df do u get 24 mpg i get 11 mpg in eco😭😭😭 im abt to get downpipes but they dont have the bolt on 3inch should i get the 2.75 slip fit ? and how did you do the alpina dash and get 200 mph and did you unlock your ecu so u can go past 160? i also have a 2018 m550i and i was gonna keep it stock then i did a res delete and got a whole bunch of other stuff done to it and rn i have a stage 1 tune on stock dps so im gonna get downpipes and i wanna put 200 on the dash and mess with my ambient lighting , nd unlocking my ecu would let me go past 160? i know i typed alot but if you could answer me that would be much appreciated thanks man and i also wanna get cold air intakes but what kind should i get ?

@user-jx9lw8wo4t 2 месяца назад

and also how do u have 200 somthing miles left on half a tank when i have a little bit more then half and i only have like 180 ?

@jbcars 2 месяца назад

@@user-jx9lw8wo4t depending on your driving habits if you drive the car economically or hard, freeway, or city driving it will adjust to what it can project you can go on that tank. I’ve filled my car up multiple times with the range claiming over 500 a tank and I’ve almost been able to squeeze that amount out of it from my driving

@jbcars 2 месяца назад

I got the original 3 inch definitely get the slip on it makes life so much easier. I coded in the dash using BimmerCode but you must have the fully digital gauge to do so. I also coded in the 200 on the dash using BimmerCode as well. You do not need a ECU unlock. Also can code ambient lighting colors like I have red rn. I got the ARM front mount intakes. I talk about them in a newer video and compared competing ones. Definitely worth the money for the price but would recommend having a show warranty it so if you break anything you don’t have to pay to get it fixed.
