The modification process can however be rather educational, so I don't regret it at all. |

i agree with this quite a lot really, and i respect this as you speak with experience rather than opinion,
with my build at the moment i am trying to use as much OEM M135i parts as possible: Spark plugs, intercooler, ignition coil etc... this way i get a 2 year warranty on the parts and you know it should do the job! and sure a tesla is fast, but you wont hear a electric engine rev |

Quick update guys!
Mine have now been remapped to stage 2! Damn what a different car! Performance is great compared to stock and the sound is really nice with the downpipe installed! I would like to have even deeper sound with more pops and bangs... removing the mid pipe (resonator) and replacing with straight pipe should not be that hard since it has no "bends" but will it do any good to the sound? If that is not enough I will plan to remove the back box which is stock m135i but it is not that easy since the pipes needs to be custom... please feel free to suggest what you think is the way to go |

The N55 uses NGK as OEM to get that clarified.
The N13 engine has a vast choice when looking the gap on the SPs. I suggest you use the N20/55 ones and leave the gap as it is. The 135 backbox to be honest is bigger though am having doubts regarding the efficiency on the performance aspect on the N13 instead of using a branded tested solution. am only saying this due to the fact i havent seen a pre and post dyno. 300bhp on what torque anything beyond 350nm of torque on a AT will be devastating on either engine or any components of the drivetrain. You have misunderstood the stages when swapping the turbo you are on stage 3 of tuning. Stage 1 is usually all stock. stage 2 is the cooler and exhaust and so on.. When aiming for 300bhp you cant go cheap. So the wangner Evo I competition cooler is needed an appropriated branded solution from the turbo and back for the exhaust and most likely an better intake system including the variants of CP and BP..... @ pakiminator Why is it choking about on 4000rpm and then kicks up again? Pops and bangs are a mapping solution though you should read or ask how those are achieved on the engine side. More noise besides the most obvious changing the exhaust the cooler and CP&BP also contribute. further suggestions can not be placed because we dont know what you aiming for and each of us have a different view on the end result |

if you search you may find the last track i had it was a custom solution to hybrid some part from the N20 turbo.
never the less those numbers you aim for require quite few changes if you up for it.. |

Would it be recommended to change te coil packs to N55 packs as well? If yes, would you go for the NGK or oem DELPHI one's?

the N54 uses Bosch as standard whilst as upgrade as 2 step colder and or with use of Ethanol the last i had it checked. if i have mistaken with the N55 it is may due a lot of info nevertheless the specs are for all engines the same
N20/n55 Thread diameter: 12,0 mm Thread Length: 26,5 mm Spark gap: 0,75 mm Resistance: interference-free, 5 KOhm N13 Thread diameter: 12,0 mm Thread Length: 26,5 mm Spark gap: 0,8 mm Resistance: interference-free, 5 KOhm the first 2 are the most interested. The gap can be adjusted if wished though not suggested as is mostly for are use. a friend fitted them in a N13 couple o weeks ago |

Best setup:
Engine: Stage 2+ tune (well known brand) Wagner intercooler ( 13lt ) Any intake kit AEM meth kit %50/%50 water meth or %40/%60 water meth depends on your tune and gas Spark plugs ( NGK or N55 fine) Coils (N55 should be fine) Downpipe (Min 76mm) Resonator delete Well known brand rear muffler GFB or forge Dump valve Motul V300 engine oil Oil cooler Easy 260+ hp 380nm+ (depands on your tune) If these are not enough and if you want more power: Ugrade your turbo with hybrid or get something bigger. Forged engine. (pistons and etc.) Last edited by selçukdal; 05-21-2018 at 02:20 AM.. |

I'm probably gonna go with the following mods: - muffler delete - GFB Diverter valve - OEM N55 spark plugs - Stage 1 (220hp 310nm) - FTP Motorsport charge and boost pipe - FTP Motorsport intake pipe with stock airbox or injen cold air intake As I won't be pushing the vehicule too often and climate in Belgium is more likely to be cold, I will keep the stock intercooler or maybe get an OEM N55 intercooler. Are N55 coils recommended when going stage 1, or is it optional?

I looked for the oem number of N55 sparkplugs and came up with bosch oem nr. 12 12 0 037 582. So these are the ones I should use in my 118i N13 for stage 1 tuning?

Can anyone confirm please that the stock m135i intercooler will fit to a non M body kit 116i? Furthermore is it worth to change the stock intercooler at Stage 1?
