Anyone run this with BM3 and the max cooling? For everyone who’s installed this part, does it keep the oil temps from rising up to ~250 degrees after some WOT pulls?

Anyone run some blackstone tests on a good oci? Just wondering if you are seeing more moisture in the oil since it is running cooler.

225 is more than hot enough to not see any increased moisture, from what I’ve read. I use only BMW oil, and change at 2x recommended intervals - no oil testing. Most other BMW engines using this same oil run cooler avg oil temps than the 250 I was seeing in my N55.

I run it with a lowered coolant target in MHD. I think it's set to 85c iirc, 'sport cooling' option. In hot weather the oil temp does not go above 100c though the actual coolant target changes based on mode. In sport+/DSC off, it goes from 80-85c ish, and in comfort it's around 95. I will likely raise the coolant target to stock for winter to get a higher amount of heat in the bay as as put the foam and engine cover back on top.
So with the thermostat, lower coolant target, and removal of the stock cat the engine bay has the best thermals its going to reasonably get. |

Sometimes its the attention to the smallest details that makes the biggest statement!
Mosselman Turbo Systems have upgraded the reverse torx bolts, reusing the oem, to 10mm titanium bolts! Their oil thermostat upgrade was already really awesome in look and function, but this just tops it off! Well done!

Actually a great video... I've been on the fence changing my oil once every year since I drive less than a thousand miles a year... knowing oil is key (especially on BMWs').. I change it just for the fact of it's cheap insurance...
