- CFD engineered, one piece cast aluminium end tanks for smooth airflow and durability

Performance focused core
The OEM BMW intercooler is fine at stock boost, but once you increase boost and airflow the factory unit is quickly overwhelmed. The VRSF Race core uses a staggered and offset fin pack inside and out to maximise heat transfer while keeping pressure drop low. The bar and plate construction is tough enough to handle debris and harsh road conditions, giving you confidence on road and track.
This 7.5 inch Race FMIC has been used on many high horsepower N54 builds. The custom core design has supported cars in the 1100whp range in record setting applications, showcasing just how effective this intercooler is at managing charge air temperatures under extreme demand.
Build quality and finish
VRSF cast aluminium end tanks are CFD backed for superior flow compared to multi piece sheet metal designs. Each intercooler is hand finished, pressure tested and coated in a uniform bright silver finish to fight corrosion and keep your FMIC looking great behind the bumper.
