Thanks guys. Looking to have the BM in the 10's pretty soon, it went 11.2@127.

S60R 06-05-2010 11:43 AM

Both cars are very impressive. Good to know the 135 has that kind of potential.

FrodoGT 06-05-2010 02:05 PM

Seen a few turbo r32s and everytime they make me wet myself.. Damn I would love to own one.

The 135 has alot of potential man. We are doing a fully built motor single turbo setup that should be hitting the street pretty soon, should be fun.

Mr do work 06-05-2010 04:47 PM

Two well put together cars that runs strong..Adrian does top notch work over at I.R.C:thumbup:

concordcobra 06-06-2010 01:11 PM

Nice Adrien

flatblacklx 06-06-2010 06:21 PM

yea anything in the 11's is a fast street car

SpoolinK24Vtec 06-07-2010 08:23 PM

Good shit man these whips are nasty as fuck...

IRCFlorida 06-08-2010 07:36 AM

What's concidered the reliable limit on a tuned and replumbed stock block and turbo setup on those babies?

ZCCRX 06-08-2010 11:33 AM

Damn IRC!!! I need to bring my GTI over to you.

stock they can be chipped to ~360 PS, thats what a Munich BMW engineer told my brother during a service technician training.

some German Tuners (Hartge, AC Schnitzer, Hamann etc) tuned the N54 engines to over 400-420 PS without changing the whole internals, I think only one of them put some other pistons in it, all the others just went with an ECU reflash, other injectors and exhaust and mabye some better gaskets.

I have to check my magazines, I got one with 4 different 135s in it, just dont know where it is lol


fyi, the new versions of the N54 engines are going to get a single turbo setup

S60R 06-08-2010 01:41 PM

Hmm, good to know.

If the R ever gets totalled or otherwise bites the dust I must admit that the 135 is now on my radar since my need for a 4 door has wained a lot over the last few years.

The new generation of that engine is already for sale (we already have an 135i convertible with it in the shop right now).
Single-Turbo Setup with Twin-Scroll Turbo->respond like 2 smaller Turboīs, power output like a big one.

The older Twin-Turbos are engineered to stand ~360PS, but for some reasons i donīt know BMW put them on sale with much less power.
BMW offers a Power-Package which adds 20PS.
It includes an ECU remap, improved cooling and so on, for 2000€.
And with warranty, of course.

Alpina (re-)boosted this engine up to 360PS in the Alpina B3, but with other internals as well for longer durabilty.
But now Alpina brings the B3 S, which produces 400PS and
540Nm of torques (398 lbf ft).
They just raised the boost from 1.1 to 1.2bar, replaced the catalytic converters to reduce dynamic pressure and improved the air-intake-system.

Canīt wait to drive one of these.:P

Nearly all factory turbo sportscars are seriously detuned for drivability and maintenance reasons, they do have to warranty this stuff for a while after all. Then again for a price they will let a select few turn it up a little and stay within the warranty zone since there is still some good safety margin there.

My R was so detuned by volvo that just by getting an ungoverned yet conservative new tune for it (torque used to be ECU limited to 300ft-lbs), I got 40 more HP and lbs of torque without any other mods.

Certainly sounds like the 135 has a lot of potential and I also like its simplicty and good looks.

98_GstEclipse 06-08-2010 05:13 PM

That 135 is nasty. I have been thinking about getting one lately and after seeing this makes me want one even more now

steveyjr1982 06-08-2010 08:29 PM

I'll admit, I do like the sound of those engines.

tobibeck80 06-08-2010 09:20 PM

its one of the best engines BMW ever built, if not the best imo.

But you guys wouldn't believe how many hardcore BMW enthusiasts in the motherlands were yelling blasphemy because BMW put some turbos on the engine (and did with the actual V8tt and V12tt).

BMW had to make a move like this, other German manufacturers or lets say BMW direct business rivals like Audi and Mercedes turbo- and supercharge their cars like nothing else.

And despite all the boosting they manage to match the car's emissions to the EU regulations of the Euro 5 and Euro 6 norms.

My car has Euro 3 and that only because I got a secondary air pump to preheat the cats for better emissions.......in the eyes of the EU my car emits pure death lol.

I almost came out with Mladen that night... By the way i saw that bastard in the video..

S60R 06-09-2010 12:04 PM

I saw a nice modded 135 when I went to street heat a few weeks ago, never had a chance to line up or ask him about his times though.

It was all blacked out and had some nice black wheels with red trim and looked mighty nice though.

So far alot of guys are making over 500whp including ours and staying together with no issues. Anywhere between 450whp-500whp is what you are going to see mostly.

89crxsir 06-10-2010 12:26 PM

Adrian, How is the 1JZ E30 coming along?

jrmrbcax 06-10-2010 01:16 PM

That SRT4 came back :)

I love R32's and 135's
