PRODUCT INFORMATION
THE ULTIMATE COOLING SOLUTION FOR BMW F8X M3, M4, & M2 COMPETITION
The BMW F80 M3, F82/F83 M4 & F87 M2 Competiton are still regarded as some of the best performance platforms available. BMW’s S55 Motor has amazing potential for power and there are countless performance parts available for it. However, like most production engines, the S55 doesn’t come equipped from the factory with sufficient cooling capabilities to cope with added power or even prolonged performance driving. CSF have designed a full line of S55 cooling options to help you get the most out of your BMW F8X. The CSF Charge-Air-Cooler, Heat Exchanger, and Transmission Cooler will keep you ahead of the competition.
BMW F8X TOP MOUNT DUAL-PASS CHARGE-AIR-COOLER
The S55 suffers heavily from heat soak. Many tuners witnessed this early on after doing multiple dyno pulls and seeing significant drops in power after each consecutive pass. Many F8X owners experienced the same loss of power on the track as the engine just could not cool off during laps. The solution is two fold: The Charge-Air-Cooler & Front Mount Heat Exchanger work together to keep the intake temps down and power up. The factory units simply cannot dissipate enough heat to keep up with prolonged performance driving. Our Charge-Air-Cooler boasts a core size that is 60% larger, greatly increasing the capacity for heat transfer from the hot charge air coming from the turbos. Paired with the Front Mount Heat Exchanger the system is able to maintain lower intake temps and keep your BMW F8X’s power up.
The CSF Dual-Pass Top Mount Charge Air Cooler is a direct replacement for BMW part number 17517846235.
