Description
Unleash the full potential of your turbocharged BMW with the Forge Motorsport Uprated Intercooler, designed for the BMW 135i, 335i, and 1M models equipped with the N54 twin-turbo and N55 single-turbo 3.0L inline-six engines. This performance intercooler is engineered to deliver exceptional cooling efficiency, minimal pressure drop, and a direct fitment that makes installation quick and easy.
Forge Motorsport developed this intercooler to meet the demands of both stock and tuned vehicles. Extensive testing revealed an impressive reduction in intake air temperatures by up to 30°C compared to the OEM intercooler, resulting in improved throttle response, reduced heat soak, and more consistent performance under load.
The core is a high-efficiency bar-and-plate design with increased dimensions to handle greater airflow and cooling demands. This design significantly improves charge air cooling without compromising turbo spool or drivability. The CNC-machined bayonet couplers ensure a secure, plug-and-play installation — no cutting or modifications required. You can install it in under one hour using basic hand tools.
This kit includes all necessary hardware and detailed instructions for a seamless DIY installation. Whether you're carving canyons, hitting the track, or pushing high boost levels with an aggressive tune, this intercooler is built to deliver reliable and repeatable performance.
