BMW 325d Mods part 3: Engine remap - 100+ BHP power gain!

Here I join Steve on his 3rd major mod to his BMW 325d - and engine remap giving an extra 100 BHP!

[@davehewisonphoto]

What a fantastic series of video's! I just bought a 330d, same spec and year. You've inspired me!

[@johnny-S]

You're welcome

[@danpeters5028]

What a great result from a remap just goes to show how detuned cars are in factory original state

[@justinbarkby3580]

I have just got my E92 325D M Sport Coop Dyno tuned and now running 297Bhp from 192Bhp. Difference is amazing.

[@Isaa5500]

Hi was that just stage 1 remap?

[@justinbarkby3580]

@@Isaa5500 It was a custom dyno tune from JMIMPORTS so not just a standard stage 1 dump

[@val_solooo]

There`s something wrong with the 0-60 acceleration. Stock 0-100 for e91 330d is 6.3, guess you might try it again and with 2 pedals, not just regular switching from brake to throttle. Waiting for my own remap though.

[@madformodz7252]

Woww I have a 325d git told I have to uprated Down pipe injectors to 330d egr bypass don't get it so what have you done engine remap and gearbox flash ??? He mentioned about this is your 3rd major mod what have you had done subed and liked 👍

[@Paulization22]

Great videos exactly the same mods I did to my E91 325d touring.. Very interested in the Apple CarPlay video..👍🏻

[@johnny-S]

Apple car play is video is out this Sunday. It's heavily technical be warned. Thanks for watching.

[@johnny-S]

@@avt3401 If you tell your insurance company what you are planning to do to the car BEFORE doing anything like this then they will advise you on how it affects your cover. As far as the MOT goes it should not affect it, however it would be wise to contact the company who are doing the remap to make sure. Hope this helps.

[@thetruthugly0121]

I was in the market for a f10 530d but now I think I will be looking for a f10 525d ….

[@stevennewman]

@6:23 sounded like a rocket lol.

[@Sparklife-UK]

How’s he getting on with the map a year on mate no engine issues?

[@ukmusicinfo2709]

I have a 2009 325d m sport saloon and I have been interested in re mapping it how costly would this type of map be ?

[@t5jerry]

REALLY interesting video that, you have a new subscriber, now where can i get a decent 325d touring cheap 🤭🤭🤭

[@johnny-S]

Good question - I suggest that you start by using the web to research the spec, and potential issues to look for. on the model you want Once you have that info you can then start hunting them out on Autotrader (AutoTrader also has an alert feature to send alerts to your phon when cars of your requirement appear). When you find one - you can then go with the knowledge of the issues for look out for and make a good offer. Thanks for watching.

[@joebloggs4191]

Last time with the XHP Flash you said 0-60 had gone from 7.19 seconds to 6.49 seconds and now with an extra 100bhp it's 6.42? that doesn't make any sense. Did you put the gearbox tune back to stock?

[@StephenC999]

That run was a bit misleading, I’d only just had the map done when that run was done so wasn’t fully used to it and let the car do its thing. Now I’m used to the map I’ve got consistent times of 4.95 and 5 seconds to 60 in manual mode which is much more like what is to be expected. Hoping to do an update video soon. Thanks for watching.

[@hashamshaheen]

@@StephenC999 Hi, we are waitng on the new video! Looking forward to it. 0 to 60 times. When I launch my 330d I brake boost it to 1.5k revs and floor the gas pedal. Rather than just straight flooring it from a standstill.

[@lewis4336]

Different injectors in the 330d

[@drew6090]

I have same engine. Did they have to take the ecu out?

[@redalloy]

Good video but you should talk about the torque . Bhp sells a car, Torque wins the race.

[@bigboy7561]

Great video thanks

[@johnny-S]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@adnxv6893]

Who remapped it?

[@Kartoens]

Gonna be fucked any way soon. Avoid 4 cylinder BMW's

[@dcmihaly4039]

Gearbox stock original?

[@212MPH]

That's an N57 engine, make sure your timing chains are ok, any doubt engine out to change them.

[@hanswangnstvold435]

thats mainly a problem on the n47 not n57.

[@212MPH]

@@hanswangnstvold435 exactly the same engine except 2 extra cylinders. Please read up and see the problems.

[@hanswangnstvold435]

@@212MPH no, different cams and assembly for the timing chain is different. Way less timing chain problems on the n57 than on the n47.

[@robjnr86]

Seems to be down on torque, normally these remap with 500lbft..

[@emilioklisurov8077]

hold on a second , the injectors and gearbox are the same , isn't a gearbox 6hp21 ?

[@kovacsgergo8738]

This 0-60 is not too fast... i have same e91 lci 330d 2009 245hp and 0-60 in 6.4sec with dragy...305-310 hp under 6 sec...

[@sijcalv]

ive had the remap without the gearbox remap, mine flies, not tested it 0 to 60 but much much faster than stock i would estimate 6sec .

[@richardsutcliffe3884]

I've got a 2008 e93 325d would I expect the same? How does the autobox fair?

[@johnny-S]

Best to contact your local performance boost provider for that answer.Thanks for watching.

i had mine upped to 245bhp a few years ago but upgraded ( i was told 320 bhp) about a year ago, the car runs better than ever with 100,000 just gone on the clock. I have had no issues at all and the gains are very noticeable and lovely.

The stupid thing is, you will get used to it so so fast. I've had mine done, after only one month it's mehhhh.

[@johnny-S]

Agreed - I even got bored with a Lotus Exige V6 after a year or so (although I regret selling it now). Thanks for watching.

[@DerKaktusAvant]

I also agree. I’ve got a 300bhp pd130 Quattro a4. I blew the engine and bought a 116d as a temp car while I fixed it. Once it was back on the road it felt so quick but after a few weeks it felt normal. Going to get rid of it soon. It only does 23 mpg and when you drive 60 miles a day it gets very expensive. Currently looking at getting a 325d

Which engine code? M or N

It's a N apparently. Thanks for watching.
