Our good friends over at speed acamedy are currently refreshing an S54 motor for their E46 M3 project, and needed to replace their rod bearings.If you’ve ever dealt with an S54 you know that it’s an amazing motor…With an unfortunate Achilles Heel.

Our N54 Cylinder Heads are built with 50+ years of performance and race engine building experience and offer ideal real world performance without sacrificing reliability.

Yes, you read it right – we are offering FREE INSTALL on the track proven VF620 supercharger kit. This is the kit that took our E92 M3 into the 10s (setting the E9X world record) – right out of the box.

Forgeline Motorsports manufactures the world’s finest custom-made high-performance lightweight forged aluminum street and racing wheels for the most discerning enthusiasts and the most demanding applications.

There seems to be a bit of controversy surrounding cylinder sleeves and BMW engines. Oil consumption, excessive noise, sleeves dropping, Alusil blocks not liking sleeves – you name it.

We use factory BMW tools to perform this job. These tools ensure the job is done right the first time and that there is no mess.

This is one of those cars that every single person on earth loves – seriously. This is not a show car.

REM treatment is a proprietary process which eliminates the imperfections left over by the machining process.
