This guy is highly educated. Fantastic videos

Why S58 is better? Bigger bore and Less stroke. This engine is less under-squared meaning less stress on cylinder walls. It’s also an advantage for thermal properties. It can also rev higher. Valves are bigger as well. It’s a great combo for racing!

Hey man, i've seen your videos for quite a while now. Just wanted to say I appreciate how much dedication you've put into content like this. These videos and your deep-diving is invaluable for those of us that would want to better understand these engines and repair these vehicles. You're easily one of the most important channels to the BMW community.

Its worth noting there are slight differences in the s58 found in F97/F98 to the G80/G82. The crankshaft used in the G8x is different - lighter and optimized for the higher torque & rotational speed. The right engine mount is designed to be more rigid than the left engine mount for the torque increase which should reduce force on the drive system. Pre-production 11/2020 F9X S58s have different cooling. The pre-production F9x S58s are missing an external radiator the G8X have. Also BMW decided to include stone chip protection guards on the coolant radiators.

My S58 INJECTORS upgrade netted me a substantial gain. Able to run E55 @33 psi on a DAW in my M340, making account 660whp

12:50 Concerning the about estimated power output of the S58 and you assuming it's capable of doing about 30% more power with the injectors, I want to tell you, you are pretty much right! There is a german tuner called Benny from "BK Performance" and about 4 years ago when the S58 came out with the X3M and X4M models, he already got his hands on the X3M and tested it's "limits", he ended up at 757hp with everything stock besides installing a different Downpipe (and what I'm not sure about is, he might have changed his Intercooler to a Wagner one, I don' remember exactly no more), BUT what I know is, he definitely didn't change anything else than I mentioned. The car was also featured on quiet a few other YouTube channels like "AutoTopNL", he could have went for slightly more power as well but he wanted to run a safe setup. He even drove the X3M with that power with 310km/h+ !GPS measured! on the Autobahn :D

Time will tell how the rod bearing will hold up but so far it’s freakin sick! Thanks for the informative video.

[ldadol]

A video in your style on the S65 and S85 engines would do great imo

[racingdaily]

They also rotated the spray pattern of the B58TU injectors. They were trying to prevent warping of the upper cylinder. Lower compression ratio, bore and stroke changes, less flowing injectors... reliability and boost were in mind.

[fomocotech]

Can’t believe I’m just now seeing this channel. Awesome video man.

[cornelltiktok]

I came to the right channel. Your information about s58 is very helpful. Im looking forward to trade in my 2018 q50 for m440i as a daily so i don't want to have worry big issues with the car so i dont have to spend big money as a young adult early 20s

[Cquirkii]

Thank you!! Really don't see many videos out there with the real info somehow. This is wonderful!

[kavehh]

I loved the video, only thing I’m unsure about is, the rod bearings do actually have coating on the top bearings for S58 and not the bottom ones.

first 3 seconds should be a wallpaper or a shirt haha or maybe a sticker
