Dual-Pass Bar & Plate Intercooler

The VRSF Competition HD Front Mount Intercooler is engineered as a direct replacement for the stock intercooler in a range of BMW vehicles equipped with B46, B48, and B58 engines. It addresses the limitations of the factory tube-and-fin design, which can be overwhelmed by increased boost levels and airflow, leading to heat soak, power loss, and potential pre-detonation. This upgrade utilizes a high-density, dual-pass bar and plate core to significantly improve cooling efficiency, ensuring cooler intake air temperatures. By keeping intake temperatures down, this intercooler upgrade helps prevent heat soak, leading to more consistent power output and increased reliability. Reduced intake temperatures minimize the chances of pre-detonation and knock, allowing the engine to perform optimally, especially when paired with engine tuning. The intercooler features a durable black powder-coated finish and comes with CNC-machined, plug-and-play fittings for a straightforward installation process that requires no modifications. It is a direct replacement for the OEM BMW part number 17118741830. The intercooler weighs 24 lbs and has dimensions of 32 × 7 × 22 inches. This item is specifically designed to fit the following BMW models from 2016-2019: - F20/F21 BMW M140i & M140i xDrive (B58) - F20/F21 BMW 120i & M125i (Including xDrive) (B46 & B48) - F22/F23 BMW M240i & M240i xDrive (B58) - F22/F23 BMW 220i & 230i (Including xDrive) (B46 & B48) - F30/F31 BMW 340i & 340i xDrive (B58) - F30/F31 BMW 320i & 330i (Including xDrive) (B46 & B48) - F32/F33/F36 BMW 440i & 440i xDrive (B58) - F32/F33/F36 BMW 420i & 430i (Including xDrive) (B46 & B48) It also fits both Left Hand Drive & Right Hand Drive models.
