O_o maybe you have to be logged on ig?

Tambohamilton · 02-13-2024, 09:34 AM

Quite possibly, though I don't seem to have that issue for other vids on IG. Anyhow, never mind. Glad it works!

Tambohamilton · 02-13-2024, 09:36 AM

I think I need to go shopping for an N52 car now...

Same. And the M3 turbo video right below unmutes normally

AmuroRay · 02-14-2024, 01:09 PM

I'm considering buying an N52 powered car just for this - can you please just post that information here? I don't have social media.

chilledn52 · 02-14-2024, 02:07 PM

Green is individual runners (stock exhaust), Red is Stage 3 IM (stock exhaust). Screenshot from the ig story

AmuroRay · 02-14-2024, 03:09 PM

That's a happy dyno, but great mid range gains. I expected more at top end.

Raimund · 02-14-2024, 03:16 PM

Here you go guys- youtube video with sound and clear dyno.

they mention directly that up high they are having timing corrections with the stock exhaust manifolds, in comparison to full exhaust. 254whp stock exhaust to 269whp with 3 inch and milvs

They have a picture of a link? Again, that extremely optimistic of that dyno. No one is making 250whp on a 3Stage without headers or exhaust.

This dyno that Chilledn52 posted is not of my car, but a stock exhaust (aftermarket muffler) 328i with just the velocity stacks vs Afe intake box+3si. The stock exhaust manifolds are choking it up top.

Here in this photo you can see my run with headers in red added in and how it pulls ahead in the top end.

Thank you! I'm thinking about 15whp more with similar setups - plus a broader powerband. Is this open trumpets, or filters?

This is with open trumpets no filter. There will be a panel filter and cold air feed option once the runners are throughly tested.

And yep 15whp gain up top on mine over the n54im, and 10-20wtq gained across the low to midrange. Feels really good driving

jonwilli · 02-15-2024, 02:38 PM

The velocity stacks sound amazing! Does the traction control still work with the throttle body removed? I thought the TB was how the ECU cuts power to the rear wheels not through Valvetronic

AmuroRay · 02-16-2024, 07:59 AM

Were different lengths attempted? I recall BPC did something similar and it made more power than the 3 stage at all RPMs. I have to look and see if I can find them.

rackhenry · 02-16-2024, 10:58 PM

Very impressive work! I sent you a PM just now. thanks

This is awesome. Can't wait to see how this develops. Would love to see a CSL style intake for the N52!

Riley1524 · 03-07-2024, 08:07 PM

I want it just for the sound alone!!! Damn, can't wait!

In for the updates and release!

PhaceN52 · 04-11-2024, 12:57 PM

Raimund, you plan on releasing the stacks soon, right? right?

freakin' awesome

I think it's a great deal if your DISA valves need to be replaced
