BMW 428i xDrive Gran Coupe Intercooler Hose Kits

This BladeRunner Intercooler represents the next generation of intercoolers. Designed specifically for the 2012-2016 BMW 328i (F3X) 12-16 L4-2.0L (t) with the N20 engine, this BladeRunner intercooler utilizes a 5″ bar and plate core design. This design outflows the factory fin core design, while the 3/16″ TIG-Welded end tanks offer superior strength and durability. In testing, this intercooler showed flow gains up to 17% and lowered the intake air temperatures. 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: The BladeRunner Intercooler is test pressure rated at 200psi. Perfect Fit: Utilizes the factory mounting locations for a hassle-free installation. The intercooler and tubes utilize billet factory style quick connects to assure a leak-free connection.

Product Features:

• Outflows Factory Intercooler By 17%
• Lowers Manifold Intake Air Temperature
• 2.5 in. Billet Aluminum Intake/Outlet
• Incorporates Factory Style Quick Connections For Tubes

Perfect Fit: Includes stainless steel clamps for a leak-free seal and heavy-duty 5-Ply reinforced silicone coupling for strength.Mandrel-bent Tubing: Constructed of 2-1/4″ mandrel-bent aluminum tubing for maximum flow then, powder-coated for a nice finish

Product Features:

• +21 lbs. x ft. TQ & +18 HP
• Retains factory style turbo outlet O-ring seal made from 6061-T6 Billet Aluminum
• Constructed from 2-1/4 mandrel-bent aluminum tubing for increased flow and reduce turbulence
• Powder-coated wrinkle black for heat resistance

Perfect Fit: Includes stainless steel clamps for a leak-free seal and heavy-duty 5-Ply polyester reinforced silicone hump coupling for strength. Mandrel-bent Tubing: Constructed of 2-1/2″ to 3″ mandrel-bent aluminum tubing then powder-coated wrinkle-black for heat and corrosion resistance. The smooth transition mandrel bends decrease turbulence which increases horsepower and torque. The high-temp wrinkle-black powder-coating insulates the tubes from engine heat and protects them from corrosion. Two 1/8″ NPT ports are provided for sensors or water-methanol injection. aFe Badging: Unique aluminum laser-cut aFe Power logo plate is welded-on for an aggressive style.

Product Features:

• Outflows Factory Charge Pipe By 18%
• Retains Factory Style Throttle Body And Intercooler Quick Connect
• Powder coat For Heat Resistance
• 5-Ply Silicone Coupling For Strength

Advanced Flow Engineering, Inc. (aFe) produces high flow, high performance air filters & intake systems for the automotive industry. Founded in April, 1999, aFe was created to address an obvious need in the automotive aftermarket industry: a lack of choice for a high performance aftermarket air filter. We are a team of engineers, machinists, production and sales people who believe in the product we design. We each have years of experience in our respective positions and together work to ensure that we have the best product on the market. Our purpose was not just to be another vendor that offers air filters, we chose to pay attention to those finer details that set an aFe filter apart from the competition. We currently offer aftermarket air filters for passenger cars, light trucks and SUVs. We also have many applications for round racing and universal clamp-on filters. To find your particular application, please use our new search engines. If you do not see your particular application listed, please contact us.

Product Features:

• Powder Coated Textured-Red For Heat Resistance and Long-Life
