N54 535XI Pure Stage 2 Turbo Upgrade | EHOONS E60 BUILD EP. 10

[@fredfrederickson]

Damn you made dropping that subframe look easy af

[@zachniedfeldt]

Dude your killing it. Again, as with the exhaust - exactly on track with executing your upgrades. I think the mmp stg3 are the way to go. Strait td04s. But 43mm. And that nice manifold. Thanks for giving an e60 xi some real love!

[@I_Learned_a_Thing]

Been waiting for you to drop another banger!

[@I_Learned_a_Thing]

How long did it take to do all the work?

[@EHOONS]

Probably 3 working days total not rushing. 1 for front subframe removal, 1 for turbos and oil pan reseal, and 1 for subframe and front end reassembly. That’s for a first timer in the garage. If you had a full lift it would be quicker.

[@69BigLou]

@@EHOONS puttin in work!

[@mikeman5505]

Is this the orignal paint color or is it a wrap or painted? Looks awesome!

[@Punjabimoney187]

Glad your build is coming along bro!

[@jakegraziano1138]

This is so sick,looks super quick

[@EHOONS]

Thank you!

[@ceralemmon976]

Amazing work!! Love it

[@EHOONS]

Thank you 🙏

[@BlackRoseMafia]

Good to see an X-drive car getting some love! How long did it take to pull the turbos? You guys make it look effortless. I'll be doing this to my E61 6-speed this year 😎😎

[@drifter2090]

Hey any update on the setup?

[@jianiversace9787]

I got a 535xi with active autowerks 775rs fbo with stage 3 fuel pump and pi let’s talk I got a couple questions

[@EHOONS]

Dm me on Instagram @ ehoons

[@briarbach5879]

Yo love the build!!! Wondering were you bought the front hood logo? Also were you bought the rain window guards?

[@slurr4588]

man I can't wait to see the results of the tune 🙌

[@apex_734]

With these turbos do you need an external bov?

[@EHOONS]

No, but you risk blowing up your stock plastic charge pipe. I would upgrade your charge pipe with a bov, as preventative maintenance.

[@miikeee_e240]

So dope. Been eyeing a 535i. Tired of my slow 2020 toyota 86. Way too expensive to be this slow 😂

[@EHOONS]

Oh yeah N54 is great dollar per horsepower! 86 is basically the opposite lol

[@951rollincivicsi]

What’s is the rear cf bumper thing for the dual tips I want them for 535i bro. Sick ass build

[@EHOONS]

I have a KZbin video about it. It’s an M Sport rear bumper with an aftermarket carbon fiber diffuser

[@JorgeSanchezKN]

I’m about to do this same upgrade soon. Just found your channel but rides looking good!

[@Farmhandle]

What transmission? And how is it holding up?

[@yoolost4848]

Yoo bro you still got the stock transfer case....

[@EHOONS]

Yes 100% stock transfer case

[@goodguydane1546]

How did you get the paddles? did you have to retro fit a wheel ?

[@EHOONS]

Yes it’s a sport steering from a 550i. Retrofit info is available. Search “E60 paddle shift retrofit”

[@itsuo777]

You got any info on how to fix or get it out of limp mode. Just bought an 08 e60 535xi

[@tenaciousjeebs]

What did you do in terms of inlets? I’ve heard that vrsf won’t fit on the e chassis

[@ProdLar]

How have they held up so far? N how many miles? Love the 60

[@EHOONS]

Over 5000 miles. Zero issues. Can’t recommend Pure enough. You will save money in the long run doing it right once.

[@ProdLar]

@@EHOONS thanks for the update! Just saying that was a lot more help than a lot of n54 turbo groups lmao

[@nysimcharles33]

Are these the Hutchinson motor mounts ?

[@EHOONS]

Yes! I used the Hutchinson mounts

[@Lastnamebundy]

Did you have to bend/notch your front down pipe or did it install without modification? I just bought some and mine does not have the notch for the axle housing but I bought one for and xdrive 535.

[@EHOONS]

VRSF sells downpipes with the notch specific for X Drive 535

[@JoeyDorsey-z9t]

I just bought basically the same car, how much are these worth? I got mine for $500 with 135,000 miles all stock.

[@normanderson01]

Where are you located?

[@abelucious]

Beautiful car, mine is 6 speed manual.

[@casho2x]

looking at a e60 n54. is it a good daily?

[@EHOONS]

Yes! I daily’d mine for over a year before modding. Better options and more comfortable than the 3 series.

[@casho2x]

@@EHOONS yea i had a e90 n55 looking forward to more room in the car and the n54

[@josevillar4866]

How much time it was to get all the work done? Im thinking of upgrading turbos on mine too , but mine is not xdrive , mine is rwd

[@EHOONS]

It was about two working days, not rushing and being a complete beginner. Now I could easily do the job in about 4 hours. RWD is easier than X drive. I could see a beginner finishing a RWD car in 1 working day easily.

[@josevillar4866]

@@EHOONS thanks for your response man , I think you give the courage to take on the project and do it myself , my e60 need some love too XD , Yours is sick btw i luv it

[@thebestsoccer2063]

Hi bro i have a 2008 bmw 535xi and i replaced the valve cover gasket and the oil filter housing gasket but when i do a pull on 2nd gear the car smoke from exhaust blue smoke this usually to happen when i stop in the red light for a while and go forward on 2nd gear this probably my turbos? Help

[@keelano2312]

Did it bolt right up? because most of the aftermarket turbos I have seen have said the charge pipe and rear turbo return coolant line needs to be converted to LHD 335i. Was that the case for you?

[@EHOONS]

Hybrid turbos are exactly that, a hybrid. They use stock turbo housings with better internals. The stock turbos you use to build hybrid turbos, will change what they fit on. If you buy 335i hybrid turbos then, yes, you need to modify things to fit. If you use 535i hybrid turbos then they are direct fit.

[@andresmendoza7226]

I also had the same issue ended up doing the conversion on my 2010 e60.

[@stenciljunkie]

looking for the next update! when's it going to drop?

[@EHOONS]

I have a full transformation video coming soon. New wheels, wrap, interior and full fuel system! Been super busy but I’ll try and get it out soon

[@wolffemergencyresponsellc.3152]

How many hrs ?

[@bundajay4595]

stock trans ?

[@EHOONS]

Yes stock trans. I’ve done the trans service and it’s on a stage 3 XHP trans tune.

[@Blakes-n54]

Where u get the turbos

[@mogulme6190]

Hey man is everything okay?

[@Hiqzi]

headlight link?

[@hectorreyes4677]

Did your E60 have a power steering line running through the sub frame? My Rwd had a line that runs through the subframe passenger side

[@EHOONS]

There a some power steering lines that are bolted to the subframe but none of mine went through it. You can disconnect the lines and steering shaft and drop the steering rack with the subframe.

[@bess5921]

What it is the best for n54 a bigg turbo(cea6266) or two turbos

[@EHOONS]

Depends on your power goals. Twins are usually maxed around 600-700hp. Single turbo setups are capable of 1000hp. Also AWD vs RWD makes a difference. I opted for twins to fit X Drive.

[@bess5921]

EHOONS Thnk u☺️

[@69BigLou]

@@EHOONS does thw E60 535Xi come in manual? Its hard to find the RWD in manual but the X drive appears to be a full blown unicorn. And does anybody do high performance rebuilds on the ZF6HP if i cant get manual as an option? Thanks and keep up the great content

[@EHOONS]

Yes the 535xi manual exists. It’s definitely rare but they’re out there. There are 6hp rebuild kits and upgraded clutches available. There is also a 6hp swap from the diesel 335d that can hold big power.

[@69BigLou]

@@EHOONS ohh legit. Is there a kit for the swap or how to video? Thanks again!

[@SuperciliousLLC]

What is the name of that color? It looks like my factory color. #loveandHUNDREDS
