By the early 1990s, BMW had phased out its canister-style ignition coil in favor of an individual coil-on-plug system. The venerable M50 was one of the first engines to receive this update, which boasts greater overall efficiency through increased ignition control and spark energy. Unfortunately, over two decades later, the ignition coils used on the M50, M52, S50, and S52 engines are antiquated at best. Our team of engineers and BMW enthusiasts realized the need for an ignition system upgrade and set out to modernize the M5X ignition system with performance ignition coils pulled from the B58 parts bin.

WHY UPGRADE?

B58 ignition coils provide up to 2.5 times more spark energy than OE M5X ignition coils, effectively eliminating misfires even on high-performance setups. Whether your vehicle is heavily modified or completely stock, these ignition coils deliver unparalleled performance with zero downsides! For tuners, the Turner Motorsport kit also allows for precise adjustments to ignition dwell time through standalone engine management, giving you complete control over your engine’s performance.

Our kit utilizes the factory mounting locations and includes a proprietary boot design with a built-in 1k OHM resistor. Unlike many aftermarket options, our design prevents electrical contact springs from burning out, ensuring long-term reliability and durability. The included ignition coil bracket and cover plate are manufactured from durable 5052 aluminum, combining rugged durability with a premium aesthetic. Designed and optimized in-house using cutting-edge 3D scanning hardware and CAD software, our kit ensures a perfect fit and a clean, factory-like appearance. Installation is a breeze with the included adapter harness, allowing you to add modern ignition coils to your M5X with ease!

Eliminate misfires and unleash the full potential of your M5X-equipped BMW with our industry-leading B58 ignition coil upgrade. Designed for easy installation and unparalleled reliability, it’s the ultimate plug-and-play solution for performance enthusiasts.

FEATURES:

B58 ignition coils offer upwards of 2.5x more spark energy than the OE M5X ignition coils Eliminates common ignition system defects - no more chasing misfires or swapping around coil packs! The included brackets, cover plates, wiring harness adapters, and proprietary boots make for an easy installation Confirmed functionality with factory M3.3.1 (OBDI) and MS41 (OBDII) DME software PART DESIGN:

Bolt-on ignition coil brackets are manufactured from 5052 aluminum and feature a black anodized coating for superior durability, ensuring a lasting finish 5052 brushed aluminum cover plates ensure a cohesive, OEM+ aesthetic Utilizes factory ignition coil mounting locations and corresponding hardware for easy installation Our proprietary rubber boot design incorporates the factory B58 1K OHM resistor, preventing the electrical contact failure commonly associated with other aftermarket kits Coil adapter harnesses feature durable Weatherpack connectors, safeguarding each wire from exposure to water Compact design allows for retaining the factory beauty cover and/or clearance with aftermarket top-mount turbocharger kits KIT CONTENTS:

Stainless steel filtration is not a new technology but is quickly gaining popularity in the automotive segment. With the ability to filter down as small as a paper filter element with the ability to be washed and reused!

The K&P Engineering filter element is made from medical grade, type 304 stainless steel micronic filter cloth to provide unmatched protection against oil contamination and resultant engine damage. A one inch square of this material flows an incredible 1.9 gallons of oil per minute at only 1 PSI pump pressure. The adhesive used in the filter assembly process is good to 600 degrees Fahrenheit, far above normal engine operating temperatures. A super strength nickel-plated neodymium rare earth magnet is installed in the top of the element for magnetic pre-filtering of the oil. The sophisticated bypass is engineered for proper differential pressures and consistent operation, delivering a greater percentage of filtered oil while being very easy to clean. The twist lock design assures positive filter element placement and allows for easy disassembly, inspection, and cleaning. The quad-ring gasket doubles the seal between the filter and the engine. Finally, the filter housing is carved out of solid 6061T6 billet aluminum, which not only looks trick but aids in dissipating heat.

K&P Engineering manufactures stainless steel filters for a vast array of engines around the world. Staying at the forefront of design and testing allows this company to offer a top-tier product for your European vehicle.

Features:

• Consistent filtering across entire filter surface
• Superior ASTMF316 filtration performance
• 7 times the flow of comparable paper oil filters
• Magnetic Prefiltering
• Progressive rate bypass combined with high flow characteristics of the filter media avoids unfiltered oil bypassing the filter during cold startup and high rpm
• No more cutting apart messy paper filters for trapped debris inspection
• Proven in Motorsports, Military and Aerospace applications for years. Technology is FAA approved for use in aircraft. 

At regular oil changes, clean to K&P's specifications for continued used - a true lifetime filter.
