CSF BMW F90 M5 Twin Charge-Air-Cooler Set

CSF's High-Performance Twin Charge-Air-Cooler Set for the BMW F90 M5 and F9X M8 replaces the weak OEM units with a true plug-and-play system that significantly reduces Intake Air Temperatures (IATs). Developed over more than a year with several prototype revisions to achieve perfect fitment in an engine bay with only a few millimeters to spare, it requires no modifications to install.

Comes standard in an OEM+ Crinkle Black finish, with custom finishes available at an additional cost.

OEM vs CSF

The OEM crimped-on plastic end tanks are replaced with CSF's larger, CFD-analyzed, 100% TIG-welded cast end tanks. The air inlet tanks feature seamless integrated charge pipes versus the OEM plastic charge pipes that are glued to the intercoolers.

Dual 1/8 NPT ports are integrated into both outlet side air tanks for quick and easy installation of aftermarket methanol/nitrous injection systems, placed directly into the post-intercooled charge-air stream for maximum performance.
