Launched in 1990 for the E34 and E36 in 2.0 and 2.5 liter forms, it paired a tough iron block with a free-breathing alloy head and a willing redline. That rugged, over-engineered bottom end is why BMW M50 engine upgrades are still such a popular project three decades on, since the hardware tolerates far more than the factory ever asked of it.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eVANOS or not, and why the block matters\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eEarly cars are plain twin cam engines, while the 1992 TU update added single VANOS on the intake camshaft for a fatter low end without changing peak power much. For a builder, the more important detail sits lower down. The cast iron block shrugs off the boost and high rpm abuse that would worry an aluminium unit, which is exactly why the M50 became a favourite base for serious power long after the cars themselves got cheap. Combined with forgiving cylinder heads and a simple, robust valvetrain, it gives a tuner a rare thing: an engine that can be pushed hard without constant worry about the bottom end letting go.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHow the two engines compare\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIt is worth knowing which variant you have before choosing parts, since the 2.0 and the 2.5 behave quite differently on the road.

None of these parts are expensive or hard to fit, yet together they wake up the top end and make the most of that high redline.

Zrak zatim prolazi kroz Eventurijeva patentirana Venturijeva kućišta od ugljičnih vlakana s namjenskim filtrima generacije 2, koji održavaju laminarno strujanje od filtra do turbopunjača i smanjuju otpor zahvaljujući Venturijevu učinku. Budući da su otvori usisa sada okrenuti prema kabini, turbopunjači se čuju mnogo jasnije: zavijanje, pulsiranje i ispuštanje tlaka jasno se čuju pri ubrzavanju.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKomponente\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDva patentirana Venturijeva kućišta filtra od ugljičnih vlakana\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDva namjenska suha konusna filtra velikog protoka\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDva dvostruka kanala za zrak od ugljičnih vlakana\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePokrov motora od ugljičnih vlakana\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDva stražnja dovoda zraka od EPDM-a\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSilikonski spojni elementi\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNosači izrađeni CNC obradom\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eSvaki je dio izrađen od 100 % predimpregniranih ugljičnih vlakana, što osigurava glatku unutarnju površinu i vrhunsku završnu obradu prostora motora.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOdgovara za:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBMW G05 X5 M50i\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBMW G06 X6 M50i\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eDostupno na upit.\u003cbr\u003eProcijenjena dostava u EU-u: 7–14 radnih dana.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Eventuri","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58808358142296,"sku":null,"price":3149.5,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0949\/2440\/7128\/files\/Screenshot2026-10-16120456.png?v=1792141509"},{"product_id":"bmw-g15-850i-n63-cold-air-intake-system","title":"BMW G15 850i N63 Cold Air Intake System","description":"\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eZatvoreni aluminijski usis hladnog zraka koji zamjenjuje ograničavajuće tvorničko kućište filtra zraka na modelu G15 850i, omogućujući motoru N63 V8 veći protok zraka, veću površinu filtriranja i niže temperature usisa, uz izravniji odziv gasa u cijelom rasponu okretaja.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eKućište filtra zraka izrađeno je od laserski rezanog aluminija, s CNC oblikovanim zavojima, pričvrsnim elementima od nehrđajućeg čelika i crnim praškastim premazom te je zabrtvljeno kako bi se spriječio prodor topline motora.
