Gintani cracks 700 rwhp on stock internal E92 M3 S65 V8 with their twin turbo kit on 100% E85

[Sticky]

Now this is a hell of an achievement. To put it into perspective this is power equal to a built motor ESS VT3 supercharger setup except achieved on a stock internal S65 V8 and with far more torque. Quite simply, turbos are far better for the S65 V8 platform than centrifugal blowers.

Why? Greater efficiency and less stress. Rather than manually spinning an impeller and increasing stress on the front of the motor the exhaust gasses are doing the work but you already knew turbos were more efficient. In the S65 V8 application you get the benefit of being able to push harder in the power and torque department on the stock internals.

708 wheel horsepower and 495 lb-ft of torque at the wheels are stock internal S65 V8 records:

No doubt 100% E85 fuel helps here as well. The fuel system is upgraded for this of course.

What turbos and how much boost? A pair of GT3076's at 11 psi of boost. These turbos obviously can be pushed much harder but the question would be how much further before the engine let's go? Who wants to find out?

Just look at the curve. It's a thing of beauty. Yes, it is purposely tuned to not have a huge torque hit down low (they considered other turbochargers for this application) and offer nice and flat torque delivery once spooled until redline. Just imagine what a built motor curve with double the boost pressure will look like.

This is also tuned on the stock DME as well which is truly remarkable and shows considerable skill and experience with the factory ECU.

The S65 V8 turbo era is officially here.

GT3076s!? why put some old turbo tech on such a beauty. This thing needs some twin efr7163 or GTX3076r

DCT or 6MT

[Stucks]

holy crap. do want. with turbos, dct, and the ability to rev it out to 8 grand, this must be one very fun car to drive. love how they are using e85 as well.

@Sticky That your personal ride? Love LSB and the F14s (although you can fit a SDC up front ) ...not to mention the twin turbos.

However that camera quality is inexcusable. Shame on whomever did that.

DCT or 6MT

Manual.

When he had the Gintani Stage 2+ he couldnt keep up with my car a few years back in Mexico. Too bad my motor is blown and we cant have a rematch, anyways this car is sick as hell.

This is what I want.

Makes me want to s65 swap my 135 and turn it into a borderline undriveable monster. Outstanding work gintani, as always

Someone on Facebook was saying this car blew up after the dyno haha. Probably just stirring drama

Exactly

Why? You can already make 700hp in your 135i, easier and cheaper.

No logical reason honestly. The s65 is just a sweet motor. TT S65 swap into a 1 coupe would be pretty unique, I guess that's why I like the idea, even if its significantly less practical that just doing a single turbo setup or a vargas stage 3 setup.

Not my car. Stock internal 6MT.

Yes, it's potato quality. I didn't record so nothing I can do about it.

Easier and cheaper sure but the S65 will be more fun to drive and it has no fuel system restrictions.

May that point, I'd just grab an M3 and TT it LOL

Here we go, higher quality:

700Whp

Yeah how dare they top stock internal records by over 100 whp:

Why do you care anyway? is an assessment of your bank account.

These cars are dirt cheap now, wouldn't mind one with a pair of snails on it for fun!!

The thing is the turbo kit isn't cheap.

[M-Theory]

The thing is the turbo kit isn't cheap.

Once a few of these kits are installed and out it will be replicated and become ALOT more affordable. As with anything, gotta love competition!
