Engineered with a high-density bar and plate core paired to flowed cast end tanks, this BMW performance intercooler keeps IATs low to fight heat soak and sustain power run after run. We have installed and used this intercooler on our own F-series cars, and customer feedback has been outstanding with cooler charge temps and noticeably stronger mid-range punch.
Proven cooling - real road data
In back-to-back road testing over five consecutive pulls, intercooler intake temperatures sat at 135 to 140 degrees on both the standard unit and this MTC unit. Outlet temperatures into the engine told the real story. The standard BMW intercooler delivered 75 to 80 degrees. This upgraded MTC intercooler consistently delivered outlet temps in the high 20s across all five runs. Lower IATs mean more consistent performance, safer running and better results from any tune.
