Show original supplier description
The stock BMW intercooler is insufficient for the high boost targets of tuned vehicles, leading to high intake air temperatures. The MAD 5" Stepped Core Intercooler upgrades your F chassis BMW (N20, N26, N55 engines) with a direct stock replacement that requires no cutting. Its high fin density and stepped core design maximize cooling area, keeping intake air temperatures in check for optimal performance. Constructed with aluminum, this intercooler features a stepped core and high fin density for superior heat dissipation. It measures 21"x8.5"x5" and weighs 22lbs, offering a perfect cooling solution with an OE fit. This intercooler is compatible with both stock and aftermarket charge pipes. Mastery of Art and Design (MAD) specializes in bolt-on upgrades for forced induction BMWs, offering a range of intercoolers and charge pipes known for their value and performance. This intercooler is backed by a lifetime warranty on defects and fitment, with a 90-day return period.

Shipping

Orders are processed in 1–3 business days. In stock parts ship promptly from our partner network. Special-order items either aren’t currently stocked or are built to your spec — expect 4–6 weeks. If a part goes on backorder while your order is in the queue, we’ll reach out and work through discounted alternatives together.
