Chuckwalla 11/2022 - xHP stg4 & meth injection update, false brake pad sensor fix - e90 335i

In this video I'm running a custom 91 track tune and 19t turbos. The xHP stage 4 OTS transmission tune ran perfectly. I chose not to have the kickdown switch toggle the max shift rpm and I also chose the higher transmission line pressure in the xHP tune app. A very small (.75) meth nozzle with a 50/50 water methanol mix has eliminated the 3rd to 4th shift misfire I was previously experiencing with the OTS transmission tune. The smaller nozzle (Snow Performance N0075) still provides some much needed intercooling.
I left the track early due to the brake pad sensors giving a false error code.
Update: I cut the brake pad sensor wires and soldered them together to eliminate the false brake pad sensor codes in the future. Here a video on how to bypass the sensor and reset the error code. • E90 BMW Rear Brake Pad...

Great meeting you at Chuckwalla! Looking forward to next event.

[@DailyDriverTracking]

Yes it was great meeting you too! Maybe I'll sign on with your driving instructor next time.

Nice runs 🔥🔥

[@DailyDriverTracking]

Thanks Javier!

It was a blessing to have found this channel as that aren't many people who track the N54 to this extent. Have you had any problems regarding oil starvation that would've required a baffle or accusump? You run quite a bit of grip thanks to the fender flares.

[@DailyDriverTracking]

Unfortunately I have no way of monitoring oil pressure but haven't had any issues that I know of. I replaced the crankshaft bearings when I installed the Mahle pistons a couple years ago. I used WPC treated stock bearings. (kzbin.info/www/bejne/e53OdmmNaa-FqJI @9:25) Thanks for your interest.

Your videos has been very motivating. I am planning to take my e90 335i auto to track this summer. I have many questions and would love your insights. Is there a better way to correspond. Thanks!

[@FactionGreen]

Awesome laps! Your oil temp is making me jealous ahah I'll definitely need the oil cooler mods you're running, I've seen mine going close to 260F. Can you please tell me how can you take that much of data? I'm going to track my N54 135i in about 2 weeks and looking to have somehow this kind of info. Want to be sure all the values that are returned from MHD come clear like the ones you've got on the right. Thanks!

[@DailyDriverTracking]

Diogo, yeah I should make a video explaining the process it's very evolved but I'll try and briefly explain the process. The first obstacle is to get the OBD K+DCAN cable to your phone to work with all the vibration and gforces. I made a homemade connector for my phone that actually bolts on. My tablet is another set up I used where I actually soldiered the wires from a DCAN cable on the usb socket of the tablet since it had a second usb socket for power. Wireless has not worked for me. I bought the new MHD universal wireless adapter but it dropped the signal, same as the older one. I had some success using the CHENYANG Ultra Mini DM Micro USB 5pin OTG Adapter Connector with the K+DCAN cable as I use an android phone. I use two phones, one for the lap timer (Harry's or Race Chrono) and one for the MHD data. For some that may not know this... In order to select the specific data in the "options" section of your MHD monitoring, you may need to deselect the data you do not need. MHD will only record a set number of data types about two more than the default. So say if you want oil temp, trans temp and speed you may have to deselect "Boost target and/or something else. Hope this helps, have fun in real time!

Hey daily driver tracking! I have been binge watching your videos and love to see an n54 being tracked. Do you have an instagram I can follow?

[@DailyDriverTracking]

Haha! You apparently know what an amazing feat it is to have one actually running on the track! I don't have an Instagram, sorry.

[@crooked_roads]

Awesome videos, I analyze them often. My 335i is ready to be driven but wondering what else you recommend for harsh track driving. Thanks for your advice. My mods are as follows: PureTurbos Stage 2 Hiflow m3 Oem LSD + axels + custom driveshaft BlackMarketParts Manifold PI with extra 750cc Injectors EOSpeed BMP4 Secondary Pump Controller PrecisionRaceWorks Stage 3 dual Bucketed Fuel pumps + AIC-1 Split Second Controller ARMMotorsports Race intercooler + Chargepipe + Downpipes + Relocated Inlets Tail BOV EvolutionRaceWerks Dual Oil Coolers w/ shrouds CSF_Radiators KW V2 And every other supporting mod

@crooked roads What comes to mind is a custom tune for track driving. If you haven't already let your tuner know you plan to take it to the track. Hopefully he will know how to flatten the torque curve to make the car easier to accelerate out of corners. This will also benefit the reliability of the car. In a 4th gear log check every cylinder for timing pulls. There should be none. If you check back on my videos you will see a track day at ACS where timing was pulling badly mostly in 4th gear. This was an indication I was getting detonation that destroyed my cylinder 3 piston ring lands, thus forged pistons now. For suspension setup & handling mods I would just copy Alex Bernstein's e92 set up. Most importantly note the track alignment and wheel tire setup (edited - since you modified the fenders to fit the larger wheel tire set up). An e90 may have a lot of understeer with a staggered wheel set up and without maxing out negative camber in the front. www.m3post.com/forums/showthread.php?p=26892078&highlight=camber#post26892078 Hard braking will benefit from Carbotech brake pads. I use XP20 front and XP12 rear. Have fun! I really like your engine set up.

[@crooked_roads]

@@DailyDriverTracking exactly why I looked to you for advice, thank you so much for your time! and I really hope to see you and your car in action soon.

[@DailyDriverTracking]

@@crooked_roads Yeah me too. I really like your rear fenders. Is that a kit? Thanks for the kind words.

[@crooked_roads]

@@DailyDriverTracking my car has a lot of custom body pieces that sort of resemble oem, the rear fenders began as Hard Motorsport wide fenders but went through a lot of modification to fit like oem!
