BMW Engine Parts for BMW X Series E84 (2013-2015)

If you're experiencing hard starting, flaky charging, or other electrical issues, your engine ground strap may be the culprit. On E9X BMWs, the engine ground strap is a thin, non-insulated cable that spans from the left engine mount arm to the frame horn. Despite the seemingly simple nature of this part, on older cars, it is known to cause massive headaches. Due to its non-insulated design, years of exposure to water, dirt, and road salt will cause the wire to corrode, ultimately leading to complete failure. A break in this cable will cause an open circuit, resulting in issues with the vehicle's electrical system and potentially leading to a no-start condition.

To solve this issue, ECS has engineered an exact-fit, upgraded ground strap for your E9X BMW! Unlike its OEM counterpart, this design features insulated, large-gauge copper wire for dependable conductivity and long-lasting durability. Additionally, factory-style lugs are zinc-coated, crimped, and soldered, ensuring protection against corrosion and oxidation.

Whether you're replacing a visibly corroded strap or proactively preventing failure, this solution from ECS is sure to provide lasting performance and protection.

This is a complete plug and play solution to replace your stock Low-Pressure Fuel Pump (LPFP) with a new E85 certified bucketless assembly.

This solution provides up to 25% more flow than our standard Stage 2 LPFP upgrade and up to 150% more flow than the stock pump.  

This pump will support up to 550whp running 85% ethanol and 600whp running 50% ethanol. 

The Stage 2 bucketless kit includes the following:

• • A custom anodized billet fitting for the pump output and stock fuel line connection.
  • Our custom billet aluminum anodized bracket for the pump and float assembly
  • Two cotter pins to secure your float assembly
  • A new E85 compatible Walbro 450 pump
  • Spare vent tube clip
  • A new Walbro filter

If you still need more flow, the Stage 3 upgrade is also available and can be added to your Stage 2 bucketless pump.

The Stage 3 upgrade kit includes:

• • A complete plug and play solution by simply adding the secondary module
  • Our custom billet aluminum fitting to run both pumps in parallel
  • A new E85 compatible Walbro 450 pump
  • Wiring harness for the secondary pump
  • Spare vent tube clip
  • A new Walbro filter

• Recommended accessories:
  • Lock Ring Removal Tool
  • Hobb's switch 
     
• NOTE: These kits include a basic filter assembly.  When using this filter, running the vehicle under low fuel conditions can cause fuel starvation issues. If you do hard straight line accelerations when you have less than 1/8 tank of fuel, we would recommend running our standard Stage 2, 3, or Stage 4 pump.  In addition, if you intend to use this for road course applications, you may see starvation issues when running less than a half tank and doing long high G right turns.  Again for those applications we'd recommend one of our standard pump applications.
