I just heard from Sales@RKautowerks that they're offering forged internals now for the S55, i think this is a very recent discovery, so might be worth chatting with them about.
I was thinking about it, but don't currently have HP ambitions above 650ish.

I'm now working with BMB Autowerke in NJ as I've received calls and PMs raving about Billy. F80MGod has a usable spun motor that we've negotiated on. This will be the donor for a rebuilt block and head.

Don’t want to go off-topic but any way to resurrect this thread from the dead? Sounds like a fun thread relating to aforementioned shop

Haha, if I had it handy I would. They almost always end up in the customer being screwed, and someone always highlights that the owner is a pedo 💀

So as of right now the rods and pistons will be CP Carrillo and the gurus see the skirt and face coatings as worth it.

What's up Jimmy, are you planning on using arp head studs and an oem gasket? I don't really think there are too many gasket options for the s55.

Not sure on the smaller parts yet. I'll let BMB advise me on what needs better pieces, like the studs or gaskets. I haven't seen many blown head gaskets in our S55 forums.

Not a knock on anyone personally as I'm sure people have had excellent results with some of these items. or a dig at any manufacturers but I've used almost every manufacturer of aftermarket parts, ALL turbos available to date except Garrett as not interested in their waste gate setup, tmic, heat exchanger, clutch, (I'm DCT) so I cannot comment on manual. A lot of aftermarket are hype/BS and have failed when pushed past 800ishwhp. Finally which I should have mentioned first is have a specific whp goal for the car as that will determine what path you should follow. It sounds like you do with the 60-130 times but you're going to need closer to 900-1,000 plus to get there. Wish you all t |

BMW parts needed to just drop and replace is without any upgrades is 2k (gaskets, stretch bolts, filters, fluids), a proper head job 4-5k, custom pistons and rods 6-7k, camshafts 1600, machine work (crankshaft balancing, polishing 1k). 2k axles, Depending upon turbos, DP'S, heat exchanger, tmic, clutches, etc is well over 20k. try $35-40k Depending on which parts are chosen. This does NOT include labor.

Awesome info!!! You rock!
Any experience fitting an EOS manifold and Wagner TMIC without hitting the hood? If not doing PI/Meth would you skip the EOS and use the plastic OEM manifold?

I didn't bother with EOS as they didn't have a full kit at the time of my 2nd build. Fuel-it was the only complete kit on the market at the time which included the LPFP If not using PI you should be good with spacer if it's less than 1" thick. You are using a reputable builder and they should be able to confirm. |

For a stock setup you might try looking into the MILVS to get more lift without a full head job, but I wouldn't. IMHO these valve train tweaks are only of value after you've gone crazy with a built motor.

Hey gman_newyork, above when you say EU6 injectors did you really mean the larger EU5 ones from M5?
I think so because you say "PI or"...and mention HPFP and Spool (commonly used to supply the big injectors using a custom tune for fueling map). Just checkin'...

If you want to see the X5M it's on Instagram @xm5tuned. It's back in Dallas being retuned as we ran out of fueling so replaced oem X5M HPFP with F90 HPFP |

The S55 is in another state currently and I'm not going to ask the builder to share sound clips until the car is delivered in June. I will say it's not American muscle sounding nor Supra with big camshafts as I would pass just due to my dislike of that type of sound. |
