Intercooler for BMW 3 Series E90 (2006-2011)

Maximize performance and reduce intake air temperatures on your E90 335d with the Turner Motorsport Stepped Intercooler. Designed as a direct-fit upgrade for the factory intercooler, this high-efficiency unit increases charge air volume and airflow, helping your diesel-powered BMW run cooler, stronger, and more efficiently.

Cooler air is denser air, and denser air means more power. By reducing intake air temperatures (IATs), this upgraded intercooler allows your M57 engine to pack in more air and fuel per cycle, translating to improved performance across the RPM range.

Engineered for performance and durability, the Turner stepped intercooler features cast aluminum end tanks and a bar-and-plate core design, offering superior thermal efficiency and structural strength. Compared to the stock unit, it delivers a 65% increase in both frontal surface area and internal cross-sectional flow, ensuring better heat dissipation and reduced pressure drop. All of this performance comes in a lightweight package under 20 lbs.

Finished in a stealthy black coating with laser-etched Turner logos, this intercooler not only performs but looks good doing it.

If you're looking to get the most out of your E90 335d, the Turner Motorsport Stepped Intercooler is a must-have upgrade for your turbo diesel intake system.

Wagner intercoolers (#200001029) are engineered in Germany to be a superior M57 intercooler than the factory part. With 50% more frontal area than the factory IC the Wagner-designed kit is much more efficient. And that helps maintain your boost levels and performance! The factory intercooler is quickly overcome with heat and that leads to a loss of boost and performance. Factor in greater boost levels and other modifications and the more heat soak will put you out of the running. The solution is an intercooler with more capacity for cooling and Wagner has chosen the stepped design to maximize the available surface area in the front end. The step is a thicker bar and plate core with an additional set of rows on top that takes advantage of un-used space in the nose. In our eyes, the best intercooler upgrade is one that not only works but also installs with a minimum amount of fuss.

Compared to the Stock OEM intercooler:

One of the best features of this kit is how easy it is to install (the easiest we have used to date). It's a direct bolt-on replacement for your stock intercooler - no removing the bumper or modifying brackets or wrestling with plumbing. Core size measures 20.5"x5.1"x8.25". Wagner has also engineered their end-tanks in aluminum instead of the factory plastic, which is much more durable over the long term. The CAD and FEM process also allows them to design their cooler internals without any bottlenecks or restrictions. This is just the best all-around intercooler upgrade we have seen for the E90 335d Fits M57 cars.

Features:

• High Performance Intercooler Core with Turbulators
• 70% bigger core, exposed Core Volume 12530cm Volume (OEM 7293cm Volume)
• 50% bigger frontal area, 1040cm square (OEM 676cm square)
• CAD / FEM optimized Aluminum Cast Endtanks, CNC Machined couplers
• Plug & Play Installation,
• No Cutting,
• No Bumper removal required
• Uses Stock Plumming

This FMIC fits the following BMWs:
2008-2011 E90 BMW 335d - Sedan

The CTS Turbo 7.5' Race FMIC upgrade for the BMW E82 135i and BMW E90/E92/E93 335i is an excellent upgrade for those pushing past 800hp.

This kit provides significant cooling improvement compared to the competition, and substantial cooling benefits over the factory setup.  Improvements can be attributed to the high-density bar-and-plate intercooler core and high-flow cast aluminum end tanks.

End tanks are flared to ensure you don’t have to worry about your boost tubes blowing off or leaking.  If that wasn’t enough for you, this kit also uses 4-ply silicone couplers and stainless steel T-Bolt clamps.

Note: On some models, a small amount of trimming may be required to the plastic intercooler shroud; no trimming of the bumper is necessary. This will not affect the integrity or aesthetics of the bumper.

Features:

• Huge 11' tall x 7.5' thick high-density bar-and-plate core
• Cast aluminum end tanks, CAD designed for maximum efficiency
• Easy install with only minimum trimming required
• Intercooler pipe, silicone coupler, and t-bolts clamps included

It fits all E82, E90, E92, and E93 vehicles, LHD and RHD models; RWD and X-drive models.

This BladeRunner Intercooler represents the next generation of intercoolers. Designed specifically for the 2007-2010 BMW 335i (E9X) L6-3.0L (tt) N54 engines, this BladeRunner intercooler utilizes a 5" bar and plate core design. This design outflows the factory tube and fin core design, while the 3/16" TIG-Welded end tanks offer superior strength and durability. In testing, this intercooler showed gains up to +14 horsepower and +18 lbs. x ft. without any type of tune, and dropped the intake air temperature up to 10 degrees.

End Tanks: 
The unique BladeRunner end tanks are constructed out of 3/16" thick aluminum plates and include two 1/8" NPT ports for sensors or water-methanol injection.

5" Bar and Plate Core Design:
The use of the bar and plate core design allows for greater airflow and increased heat dissipation over the much smaller tube and fin design used by the factory.

TIG-Welded:
100% TIG-Welded inside and out by a certified craftsmen for strength and durability. TIG-Welding provides the strongest welds while reducing stress cracks.

Pressure Tested:

Perfect Fit:
Utilizes the factory mounting locations for a hassle-free installation. The billet 2 1/2" intercooler inlet utilizes a factory style quick connect to assure compatibility with the factory hot side inlet tube. The supplied cold side tube retains the factory style throttle body quick connect and retains the factory diverter valve connections. This kit will not work with the factory cold side intercooler tubing.
