We're really excited to finally be able to offer our PTF Race Intercooler and Charge Pipe Kit to our BMW F-series customers along with FREE shipping in the USA and Canada.

PTF Race Intercooler

The first and key hardware upgrade for all tuned BMW F series vehicles with N13, N20/N26 and N55 engines is the front mounted air to air intercooler.

Raising boost past stock on the OEM intercooler results in the DME (engine computer) to reduce power by reducing ignition timing due to increases in IAT (intake air temperature) and associated knock levels.

This PTF Race Intercooler features over twice the internal volume compared to the stock intercooler while also outflowing the stock unit by almost 20%. Intercooler features 9 charge rows in the lower section and 6 in the top stepped portion along with end tanks that have been CFD flow analyzed and made to include a vane to efficiently direct airflow into its high quality core.

PTF Race Intercooler fitment is confirmed on the following BMW F-series vehicles:

PTF Charge Pipe Kit

One of the first and key hardware upgrades for all tuned BMW F series N55 vehicles is the charge pipe. OEM plastic can have issues handling higher boost levels and deteriorates over time breaking at the intake manifold connection.
This charge pipe kit consists of two main parts: 3" mandrel bent aluminum part that features 2 bungs (1/8th-27 NPT) for those looking to run methanol/water injection (blanking plugs included), along with a silicone piece with 4 layers of polyester/aramid reinforcement made to handle high temperatures and pressures.

Parts included in the kit:

Aluminum pressure pipe
Silicone hose
CNC machined hose adapter for the host to intercooler hot-side outlet
Installation hardware for the pressure pipe
Two standard hose clamps


NOTE: OEM charge pipe o-ring should be re-used or replaced during installation on an as needed basis, NOT included.
