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.

@kern417 10 күн бұрын

Yeah technically this was made before the G8x was even out, so tried to weed through some of those specific details. Like the intake integration with the engine cover

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!

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.

Hello Kern, I just came across your channel and I am very grateful what you’re sharing with us. Thank you! I recently bought a 2024 BMW M440i Xdrive coupe and running 94 octanes pump gas on JB4 map 3. I also installed a VRSF 200 cell catted down pipe. Do you think I will be okay to keep the stock fuel pump as well as injectors if I upgrade to a Vargas GC mid turbo? Also, if the gas consumption would suffer with normal driving habits after the upgrade? What do you think about my approach? Warm regards. Alfred. July 9, 2024

Idk imo the s58 connecting rod look stronger at least on the bottom side where the bearing goes you can tell it’s beefier and the the way the profile is it’s designed better but I agree it’s thinner

Hey so I have a question, I’m afraid that I might hurt my engine. Im eventually going to go down pipe tune, but right now I’m stock and I needed a oil change. So I used 5w-30 for thicker oil instead of the recommended 5w-20. I’m afraid it will hurt my engine since I’m stock as of now? Please give me some answers cause I’m worried.👍

@G2glee 3 күн бұрын

I don’t think it will have any affects on it but I just want to make sure nothing will happen since I’m not modded yet. I only got 5w-30 oil mainly because I’m going full bolt on soon

Hahaha lol at the intro "the b58 is you" 😂😂😂 what would be nice is a comparison of bang for buck performance. A 30k b58 gen 1 with 30k in mods vs a s58 with a tune for example. All tough a M car will be sharper from factory. Many of yall only seem to drive in a straight line for a couple of meters. So that doesn't matter as well. 😂😂😂 Keep it up Kevin. 💪🏻

Watch that video, it shows a very good comparison of S55/S58/B58 rods and bearings and S58 parts are not getting a good rating there. You can switch on English automatic translation: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/jaddnpahneCxYoE.html

@edc15de 9 күн бұрын

Translation is not good I see, basically S58 bearings are already slighly worn after 10000 km while B58 is even with 100000 or 200000 km still like new. So they say S58 bearings will become a problem like S65, so after like 60000 to 80000 km you have to change them. Pistons from B58 are ok but not the best. S58 pistons are better. B58 rods are the best, S58 is not as strong.

@@TurboThreeOhcongrats…but you know that’s because it’s in a smaller lighter car with an engine that’s easier to obtain. If you take a stock s58 and run it in a m240 and put it against a stock b58 give them both fbo who wins? That trend would continue into building the engines.
