This CSF liquid-to-air charge cooler replaces the top-mounted cooler on S55-powered BMW M3, M4 and M2 Competition models. The crinkle black version uses a dual-pass cross-flow core with cast aluminum end tanks and internal air dividers.
Crinkle black powder coating gives this cooler a textured, subdued engine-bay finish. CSF specifies a larger core than the factory unit. Water connections and sensor provisions match the original charge-cooling layout, while the front heat exchanger remains a separate component.

Product FAQs
Is a front heat exchanger included?
No. This is the top-mounted charge cooler. The front-mounted heat exchanger, such as CSF 8075, is a separate component.
Will this fit a stock N55 M2?
No. The N55 M2 uses a different air-to-air intercooler arrangement. This cooler is for the listed S55 engines.
Does the finish change the cooling-circuit role?
No. Raw and coated versions perform the same charge-cooling role. Choose the listed finish without assuming a separate cooling system or included front heat exchanger.
