It swaps the factory tube-and-fin core for a bar-and-plate design with cast end tanks, built to control heat soak once the car is running more airflow than stock.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe factory core is sized for stock boost levels; a tuned car pushes more air through it than it was designed for, which leads to heat soak, power loss, and a higher chance of pre-detonation under sustained load. VRSF's larger core and CFD-optimized end tanks are built to keep intake temperatures down through repeated pulls.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eImportant Compatibility Information\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis fits the base F87 M2, which runs the N55 engine - it is not for the S55-powered M2 Competition.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eConstruction\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh-density bar-and-plate core\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCFD-optimized cast end tanks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRetains the factory fan shroud mounting tabs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompatible with the factory intercooler piping as well as most aftermarket charge pipes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVRSF intercooler core and end tanks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMounting hardware\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eOwnership Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery core is hand-finished and pressure-tested before it ships.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eProduct Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSKU: V02D 10303010 (5\" Stepped Performance Core) \/ V02D 10303020 (6.5\" Stepped Competition Core)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMPN: 10303010 \/ 10303020\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUp to 87% more core surface area than the factory intercooler, per VRSF\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFits BMW's N20 and N55 F-chassis engines\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eNeed a Larger Core?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eBMP also carries VRSF's \u003ca href=\"\/products\/vrsf-race-intercooler-f22-f23-f30-f32-f33-f36-n20-n55\"\u003eRace Intercooler\u003c\/a\u003e for the same platform, a single larger core for buyers who want the biggest step up.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes this fit the M2 Competition?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNo. This is built for the N55-powered base M2, F30\/F32\/F22 chassis - the S55 M2 Competition needs a different intercooler.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat's the difference between the two core sizes?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe 5\" core is the milder step; the 6.5\" Competition core is larger for bigger power builds.
