Building My Ultimate Driving Machine - The 2

Let’s Begin

This project is a shift break from security engineering. It focuses on major work being done to making my Ultimate driving machine. BMW prides itself as a conventional unique way to experience their masterpieces.

Every manufacture as an entry level model that juices you up to wanting a an upgraded version. While most average consumers would go this route, that is not the case for a car enthousiate like myself and you. The moment you’re into the car modifying world, that’s it. You will sink in and will never come out of the trap easily.

Below is a list of all modifications done and/or yet to be installed to transform The 2 (2015 228i RWD N20) to an Ultimate Driving Machine yet streeet legal, reliable yet outperform every model of its cotegory. Some modifications link to a DIY video, enjoy and don’t forget to subscribe.

Engine

  • Bootmod3 Stage 1 93 octane

  • 1-step colder ignition coil setup

  • Water Methanol (WMI) - Note: Ultimately I wanted a system with a failsafe mechanism. The failsafe mechanism protects the engine in case of WMI failures. Currently bm3 maps for N20 don’t support it yet, but What I planned in the installation is to have an ON/OFF switch. Assuming I am runing low on meth while cruising, I will tun it off and load a safer BM3 map that doesn’t use the WMI system. the Video explains it well.

  • 800HP N20 Build
