E88 135i (N54) Build

[ccbsecu]

2-3 at 90? That's some odd gearing for an N54

Lol - maybe it was 80....at any rate, was spinning and I was shitting my pants.

End of 2nd on a manual 3.08 diff is 90km.
Not sure why someone in the us would qoute km/h over miles but 2nd is definitley 90km at redline

Just for clarity - 90 in second is possible. Draysen Mead posted a video in N54/55 tuners of a quick pull tonight and his car did exactly as mine. Spun to 90, rpm at 7k.

@Mdraysen is a bit different I believe since he has a 4L80 and an 8.8 rear end I presume.

Stock manual gearing would put 2nd redline at ~75 lol

What is redline though. I have taken my 6at over 7500 multiple times accidentally.

Even at 7500 it would be 80mph. My AT 135i tops out at 59.2 in 2nd with the 3.85 FD

Will be 63.4 with 7500 rev limit or 67.7 with 8000 limit once built motor is done

Maybe a video pull for science (mostly shits and giggles) with the 6870 screaming like a banshee...

Exciting seeing this build. PR/BL coils on the horizon? Never saw pics of those
