Race Intercooler

The VRSF Race Intercooler is engineered to replace the inefficient factory intercooler in select BMW models with N20, N26, N47, and N55 engines, optimizing performance by keeping intake temperatures lower. The OEM intercooler struggles with increased boost levels and airflow, leading to heat soak, power loss, and a higher risk of pre-detonation. The core of this intercooler features a custom bar and plate design with a staggered, high-density fin pack, meticulously tuned for maximum intake air cooling with minimal pressure drop. It is also more robust than the factory tube-and-fin design, offering better resistance to road debris. The end tanks are 3D-CAD designed and cast from aluminum for improved flow and durability compared to sheet metal alternatives. The intercooler is finished in a bright silver coating for corrosion resistance. Installation is a plug-and-play process, with all necessary hardware included to directly replace the stock intercooler. The design retains the factory fan shroud, and the bolt-on end tanks utilize the OEM intercooler piping. This intercooler is compatible with both Left Hand Drive (LHD) and Right Hand Drive (RHD) models, as well as all XI variants. It is backed by a lifetime warranty and a satisfaction guarantee. Key specifications include a High Density Bar & Plate Core, Cast Aluminum Plug and Play End Tanks, and a core that is 117% larger than the OEM unit. The intercooler dimensions are 21" x 11" x 6". It fits various BMW models including the 2012-2016 F30/F31/F36 3 Series (320i/xi, 328i/xi, 335i/xi), 2012-2016 F32 4 Series (428i/xi, 435i/xi), 2014-2016 F22 2 Series (228i/xi, M235i/xi), and 2012-2016 F20/F21 1 Series (various trims and diesel variants).
