Description
The Mishimoto MMINT-E90-07B is a direct-fit, bar-and-plate performance intercooler engineered specifically for the BMW E9X and E82 platforms running N54 or N55 turbocharged inline-six engines. Built with cast end tanks and precision CNC-machined aluminum quick-disconnect fittings that mate directly to the factory intercooler piping, this cooler bolts in without any vehicle modification. It replaces the factory tube-and-fin unit, which is prone to heat soak once you start pushing the stock forced induction system harder.
As a core piece of your car’s forced induction system, the intercooler is responsible for pulling heat out of compressed intake air before it reaches the engine, and a stronger induction system component here means more consistent power delivery. The Mishimoto core delivers a 22-percent increase in core volume over the factory piece, along with 100-percent aluminum, TIG-welded construction for durability. Mishimoto reports a 35 F reduction in intake air temperature and an increase of 20+ hp while retaining factory boost pressure across the core, making this a straightforward upgrade for anyone looking to get more consistent performance induction out of their charge-air system without chasing exotic modifications. The unit is available in silver or black finish and is backed by a Mishimoto Lifetime Warranty, with an install that Mishimoto notes typically takes under an hour.
