Masata BMW N20 N55 Stepped UHD Competition Intercooler Upgrade
Unlock reliable, repeatable power and lower intake temps with the Masata N20 N55 Stepped Ultra High Density Competition Intercooler. This direct fit, OEM-style replacement is engineered for BMW F-series turbo petrol models running the N20 or N55 engines, including M2, M135i, M235i, 335i and 435i. Perfect for fast road, track days and remapped Stage 1 or Stage 2 cars, this performance intercooler upgrade reduces heat soak, cuts pressure drop and keeps charge air temperatures consistently low for stronger back-to-back pulls.
We run this Masata intercooler on our own and customer cars and it delivers. Expect cooler intake temps, sharper throttle response and sustained performance where the stock intercooler falls away. Typical peak gains are around 10 whp, with as much as 20 to 30 whp during longer runs versus the factory intercooler when tuned. Finished in stealth black to maintain an OEM-plus look.
