Description
The Mishimoto MMINT-F10-12WBK is a direct-fit performance intercooler kit engineered specifically for the S63 twin-turbo V8 found in the BMW F10 M5. As a purpose-built forced induction upgrade, this kit replaces the factory liquid-to-air coolers with a re-engineered bar-and-plate core system that increases core volume by 37 percent while cutting airflow restriction by 10 percent. On a stage-1-tuned M5, Mishimoto recorded a 24-degree drop in intake temperatures alongside dyno-proven gains of 25 WHP and 22 lb-ft of torque.
Heavy, high-output forced induction vehicles like the M5 generate substantial heat, and that heat load often overwhelms the factory charge-air cooling system. Mishimoto built this induction system upgrade around an efficient bar-and-plate core with aluminum core and inlet tank material, paired with durable cast aluminum end tanks that use male inlet and outlet fittings and won’t flex or crack under high boost. The cooler intake charge delivered by this forced induction turbo cooling package supports more consistent ignition timing, giving the S63 engine more usable, repeatable power instead of heat-soaked drop-off. Included silicone couplers are engineered to resist degradation and cracking over time, and a micro-wrinkle black powder-coated finish protects the core from corrosion while keeping a stealthy, factory-style look under the hood. Mishimoto backs the entire performance induction system, including the intercooler cores, pipes, and hardware, with their signature lifetime warranty.
