TOP 3 REASONS To Go Port Injection on BMW N54/N55

Port injection is hands down the superior choice over methanol injection for BMW N54, and I'm about to break down why!
If you're looking to maximize power and performance in your turbocharged engine (in our case, the N54 and N55 engine specifically!) Understanding the benefits of port injection is crucial. We'll discuss how port injection can improve fuel atomization, enhance throttle response, and provide better overall engine safety compared to methanol injection.

for me, it's keeping valves clean, and a full E85/ignite E90 fueling..buuuut mine is remaining a project in progress.. next up.. clutch and rear main seal! cause mine pushed out under the plastic V.C.. and plastic PCV.. so far M3 rear arms, VAC motorsport baffle. Bremmen aluminum cover, and Vargas PCV... ( came in a kit with the bremmen cover.. had to stick vargas guts in the bremmen PCV cause the bremmen PCV was absolute shite and didn't seal at all.. so vargas PCV guts and cap it didn't exactly seal dry, but it did a HELL of a lot better job, and what did leak through was minimal and more pressure better seal.) after clutch rear main, and probably guibo.. Pure 600's.. cause wastegate rattle..

I don’t know why more people don’t run a phenolic spacer? It’s a no brainer to me, why not run a $150 protector in between the hot head & a manifold that runs best at its coolest? I put the precision phenolic spacer on my 135 when I installed my Phoenix Racing plenum….🤷🏻‍♂️✌🏻🏁

[@tony.nextlevelrides]

going to look into one!

[@murk1352]

@@tony.nextlevelrides Precision Raceworks has the best one IMO. They sell them for $150…..👍🏻

On my ST n54, I went water meth, because simply because of the price. 375$ cad for a 600cc connected to the jb4, I think this is pretty much the cheapest you can go. I buy methanol gallon at Canadian Tire 9.99 and radiator water 4.99$ and do a mix. While a fuel port kit , even used , is well over 4 digits. But agree , better and safer.

[@tony.nextlevelrides]

same thing I did! had no issues on my old e90 with hybrid turbos, did great and only got a puff as meth ticked on from the exhaust and gnarly methanol backfires rolling off-throttle.

[@HollowMerks]

Meth cleans the cylinder also and you control wen you wanna use it port inject only real benefit of you using racing gas /e85 all come down to which one you prefer and which one benefit you and ur ride

[@ZaksWorld14]

Moooh Powwaa Baby! 😎

[@17t135i]

I'm still installing port meth, using 6x 3.5gph nozzles and one in the charge pipe, why? Because I live somewhere where ethanol is difficult to get for under $5 per litre, methanol is about half that for me. I made 565whp with a single 1000cc nozzle in the charge pipe

[@tony.nextlevelrides]

that's pretty good and a TON of methanol, whew! 🔥

[@eptdy]

Dude had a Mitsubishi Diamante on this shirt lol.

[@tony.nextlevelrides]

he's not from here, they've got some interesting cars back home. I believe the picture on his shirt is of his personal build.

[@zglgo]

got a ST n54 on just DI with pump gas. Is there any gains with PI if you are running on pump gas? From what ive seen people say if youre just running on pump gas PI wont really help you unless you have ethanol/meth

[@6mtcruiser]

you’ll gain some, on just pump + port injection you should be able to land somewhere in the high 500s to the wheels. but if you want the real benefits you have to go ethenol / meth

[@Twittenberg]

Running port even just on pump you'll elevate some of the stress off the hpfp as you have supplementary fueling. With a upgraded lpfp yoyll run out of hpfp next. Port will help with that as well and will allow a bit more boost

[@joshuaquilliam2887]

Will certainly be much safer as you can run a bit on the rich side and not detonate. Plus you will stop maxing out the hpfp. It's always better to leave some room in the fuel system. I bet you will be able to push a bit further into the 500s with port. I don't think anyone has really done it, so publish what you learn, I would be curious to see what happens.

[@tony.nextlevelrides]

the only thing I can add to what others have already said is that we're (seemingly) cavitating our REV4 HPFP at nothing above 16psi and 6500rpm currently. The HPFP tanks hard and doesn't recover while LPFP is cruising along. the consensus is, anything over 500-540whp is questionable on factory DI without PI. as for pump fuel, mid-high 500whp is attainable with the right tuning, beyond that you'll need ethanol.

[@friguy4444]

Yea Port My Ride!! (Injection that is). 😮

[@tony.nextlevelrides]

hahaha, yeah. it's the way it needs to be.

[@brokeitracing1320]

time to go port only...ditch the HPFP and the index injectors😆😆

[@tony.nextlevelrides]

tempting!!

[@LiquidSwords5150]

assuming they were correctly installed............. why would port injection injectors ever leak?

[@tony.nextlevelrides]

Fouling from ethanol usage. We had one foul and drip pretty bad on the e92, no exact reason why other than buildup from the ethanol as it was run on full e85

[@LiquidSwords5150]

@@tony.nextlevelrides this is all happening within the first test drive after installing the intake manifold/PI injectors........ sounds like your application is happening over time while mine is happening right away after installation
