Description
The Mishimoto Performance Intercooler Power Pack, part number MMB-F80-PPCSO, is a purpose-built forced induction upgrade engineered specifically around the S55 engine found in BMW’s F8X chassis. This Power Pack replaces the factory’s non-descript air-to-water intercooler and factory plastic charge pipes—components known to crack under pressure or split at the seams—with a redesigned aluminum charge pipe kit and a new performance intercooler, giving S55-equipped M cars a stronger, more confidence-inspiring induction system.
As a complete forced induction system solution, the Power Pack combines a Performance Air-to-Water Intercooler, a Performance Heat Exchanger, and a Charge Pipe Kit into one package. Mishimoto’s engineering focuses on strengthening the weak points of BMW’s original design: the intercooler core uses a bar-and-plate, single-pass coolant passage layout with cast aluminum end tanks for better flow and cooling capacity, while the heat exchanger relies on all-aluminum construction and a variable fin pitch to improve flow to the DCT cooler. The charge pipes themselves are full aluminum with a cast mid-section shaped to clear the intake, joined to the intercooler with matte black silicone couplers for a sleek, secure connection. On a stage 1 tuned vehicle, Mishimoto reports dyno-proven average gains of 11 whp and 8 wtq, with peak gains up to 31 whp and 10 wtq, alongside a 12°F drop in intake air temperatures and a 10°F reduction in global intercooler coolant temperatures.
Vehicle Applications
This Power Pack is a specific-fit forced induction upgrade designed for the S55 engine used across BMW’s F80, F82, F83, and F87 chassis codes. Coverage includes the BMW M3 for the 2015–2018 model years, the BMW M4 for the 2015–2020 model years, the BMW M4 CS for 2018–2020, the 2016 BMW M4 GTS, and the BMW M2 Competition for 2019–2020. Every kit is a direct fit for these S55-powered M cars, installing into the factory engine bay location without modification.
