You don’t need to own a top-level performance model to have a reliable car that can keep up with one. Underneath the wide arches and carbon bodywork is often a platform shared with every variant on the model line and heavily related to others from the same manufacturer. Standardized parts keep...

BMW’s 4th generation M3 has almost all the best traits of highly desirable enthusiast cars. Even as early examples approach 15 years of age (at the time of writing), their value has remained relatively stable, thanks to their unique offerings. But with that uniqueness comes bespoke parts...

Injector replacement is part of owning an N54 powered BMW. The Autel MX808 makes the calibration process of your new fuel injectors a little easier with no special software necessary.  Calibrating the flow rates for direct injectors is a requirement on some vehicles when installing new injectors....

BMW’s N55 engine was the Bavarian’s powerhouse of the 2010s and has since become a tuner’s delight. The all-aluminum engine featuring a forged rotating assembly, direct fuel injection, and a twin-scroll turbocharger was a big deal for the company hardly removed from producing the screaming,...
