MMR Performance High Performance Intercooler for BMW E9x and E8x 135i, 335i, 335xi, 1M — N54 and N55 FMIC Upgrade
The MMR Performance High Performance Intercooler is the must-have front mount intercooler upgrade for BMW 135i, 335i, 335xi and 1M models. Designed for E8x and E9x chassis with N54 or N55 engines, this bar and plate FMIC delivers a typical 20ºC intake air temperature drop versus the OE intercooler and features a 20 percent plus larger core volume. Expect stronger, more consistent power with reduced heat soak and faster recovery on the road and track. Even on standard boost pressure, customers typically see around 20 bhp gains thanks to the cooler, denser charge.
If you are tuning your BMW N54 or N55 for Stage 1 or Stage 2, running hybrid turbos, or simply want reliable performance in hot conditions, this direct-fit intercooler is the cooling upgrade that unlocks power and protects the engine. High-flow cast end tanks and the optimised core minimise pressure drop to keep turbo response crisp with no noticeable increase in lag. OE-style charge pipe connections make installation straightforward and secure.
We run this intercooler on our own cars and our customers love the consistent performance, cooler IATs and repeatable pulls. It is a proven BMW intercooler upgrade for daily driving, spirited road use and track days.
