Time to Supercharge My M3.

[@ThicWhips]

Should I supercharge the m3?? ORR…should I supercharge the s65 going in my 135?? 😬🏁🏁🏁 comment below and Thank You For Watching!

[@wasted151]

I think supercharging a e9x should be mandatory, thats when the real experience begins in my opinion. Of course it’s not cheap but if you can find a good used one on the forums that would be great

[@DolanMoore]

Although the wait might suck…the 135 would be the way to go man! It was cool seeing you at sun valley couple weekends ago. I appreciate the love for my car, I’ve got the G1 kit on my car and I would definitely go for it man!

[@benny.b58]

BOTH

[@cleanwhite6527]

Uhhhh yeah supercharge it lol. I’ve seen this car around Raleigh a few times.

[@d.l.carstens505]

Do it!

[@mikes6136]

Having owned my G1 supercharged M3 for about a year, I highly suggest it. Completely transforms the car while maintaining the high rev characteristics.

[@ThicWhips]

Yeah man I was thoroughly impressed

[@m5p944]

Agree. DCT+ supercharger is a killer combo

[@dvassi123]

Is it bad I laughed when he said "You can beat on it" LMFAOO

[@_NoynuR]

I picked up a 2012 E92 Mineral White Extended Fox Red 2 months ago and just Started my build. This is my 3rd E92 I love these cars!!

[@brandongonzalez6274]

A Combo made in heaven. Dream build, beautiful car man.

[@ThicWhips]

Couldn't agree more!

[@ZakPomeroy]

Appreciate this man!

[@vonfragyou]

Now that's a whip anyone can enjoy! Super clean build.

[@ThicWhips]

Couldn't agree more!

[@Letipe992]

33k miles, 4K miles roadtrips in my ess 550 kit. 6 years with the supercharger. No issues. Best thing for the health of these cars NA or not. Let it get to working temperature before pushing on it. That is the power these cars should have had. Note: spark plugs and valve cover gaskets need to be replace more often.

[@jp3630]

Thanks for comment. Looking to charge my 650.

[@JDM370gt]

I’ll be devils advocate here. I owned an ESS G1 supercharged e90 M3 and had absolutely no issues. Definitely an amazing system and it does not change the characteristics of the S65 engine. However, if I were do it again I would keep it NA and do a carbon intake and plenum combo instead. The power difference for me wasn’t that crazy and honestly I think the S65 provided the perfect balance of power NA.

[@Willfoster1978]

Just purchased an ESS 625 kit, can’t wait to install.

[@micraw714]

I have the same dilemma 😂 Every time I hit the canyons and dive into corners at full throttle, I think to myself "man I cannot supercharge this thing" but when I do a highway pull to redline, I'm like must get blower asap!! Haha maybe owning two E9X's is the best option!

[@ThicWhips]

Exactly!!

[@m5p944]

Last analog M3. Great build sheet

[@austinmarcero]

As a VT2-625 owner, one thing to praise about these G1 kits is the revised charge cooling system. Intake air temps are an issue in summer months, timing gets pulled for detonation safety and the car feels much much slower in the heat. Looking to upgrade to this new revised front mount unit that comes with the G1 kits. Otherwise, love the M3 way more supercharged!

[@jameshickam1787]

YOU need to seriously consider moving out of mom & dad's house and move down to Raleigh NC.. Ya'll two look like little brothers together... Talk about FUN.. I can't stop smiling cause the both of you... congrats..

[@E92M3]

My biggest issue with supercharging S65's is the amount of strain on the main and rod bearings. But the smiles per mile well justifies the maintenance

[@BMWROYAL]

How bad does it effect the rod bearing mines were done, 15k miles ago and I beat on the car hard, did a whole drift day on track with it, I’m about to supper charger mine, should I start doing the rod barring more often

[@n55Rob]

@@BMWROYALno you should probably build the motor if you want it to last…if you supercharge the S65 it will blow it’s just a matter of time without proper aftermarket main bearings, rod bearings, and rods…my dad has a mildly built S65 that’s been ESS SC for over 6 years with no issues…..you just got to wait till the OIL TEMPs come up to operating temperature, like over 15-20 minutes of driving before beating on the car (NOT GOING ABOVE 2.5-3k RPMs) he even did that on the stock engine and never replaced the rod bearings with the engine over 80k miles until (they showed little wear related to abuse when we tore the stock motor down together and built the block) he wanted to be safe with the SC and built his motor…..the Europeans like to make fun of us Americans for thinking rod bearings are an issue when in reality it’s all due to our driving habits, using the proper oil, and letting it get up to temp so the oil can lubricate the bearings properly……my dads car is currently at 155k ish miles, does oil tests every 2-4 oils changes, takes care of every issue it comes up with when it comes up and it’s still perfectly healthy/runs amazingly with him beating on it somewhat frequently with it being his “fun daily.”

[@E92M3]

@@BMWROYAL up to you honestly. I would at least be doing oil every 2- 3k miles if it's SC though. One guy who has an e93 around my area seized his mains shortly after getting his SC'ed. he also did have 120k miles when he when SC'ed. could be a factor..

[@BMWROYAL]

@@n55Rob thank you for the info , and yeah I let me car sit for about 5-10 minute warming up no matter what temp it is outside, then wait until it gets up to temp before going above 3k

[@BMWROYAL]

@@E92M3 damm, hmm ima probably send my oil off to get tested after an oil change

[@mattwist5125]

Just did PS2+'s on my F80 and watching this video makes me think I may need to have that too.

[@mikebellows754]

You are killing it with the E92 content. Keep it coming!

[@paufishing3782]

Very tasteful mods. looks great.

[@BSA210]

As an ESS G1 owner, I'd say, you need the 650 kit injectors (the G1 kit injectors aren't as good), and a tune from evolve. Secondly, the moment I went full catless with a non-resonated exhaust, the car woke up. I dyno'd 575hp with secondary cats, I think I'm closer to 600hp now. I'm also running a smaller pulley.

[@shayneliburd5043]

I have same color combo with VT2-650 kit! Love it! Brings the car to life

[@ThicWhips]

That’s awesome!

Only thing i hate about ESS is to me the plenum looks ugly compared to factory if i had to go Supercharger I'd rather search high and low for a G-Power Supercharger kit even if it costs more idc

[@amedlak]

Can the stock DCT handle that much power reliably?

I dont see any plumbing from the front mount intercooler to plenum.

[@Lester.M]

The E92 M3 is a classic and would be kind of a shame to change the exhaust note. That care is fun for cruising and doing pulls. I wouldn’t change it.

19"s do look better. These, although nice, look small. But you would have to give a bit of height to the car so they could fill the space in a more uniform way.

[@ThicWhips]

I have all of that and then some: supercharger felt way better 😂

[@mubarakalmohannadi5451]

But still it is NA ,,and that what make it special..supercharger is a joke ..unless you do it right ,,I mean you work in the engine with forged piston etc,,ask me how I know ,,it is just not safe with stock internal .

[@bustacrit]

This dude above me doest know what he is talking about. I had my e92 M3 supercharged for the past 3 years and not a single issue.. As long as you do your rod bearings you are good
