do88 performance turbo to intercooler pipes designed for an easy drop-in-fitment in your BMW M2C / M3 / M4 F8X
The S55 twin-turbo engine that powers the BMW M2C / M3 / M4 F8X is equipped with plastic intercooler pipes. These pipes are a week link on any tuned car or in some cases even on a stock tune. The OE plastic pipes often crack or split at the turbo connections leaving you with a boost leak.
With the do88 performance intercooler pipes they like to offer a reliable solution and of course at the same time improve the air flow!
To get an exact 3D-model of the available space to design their intercooler pipes in, do88 did a detailed 3D-scan of their M3 Competition engine bay. With the help of this 3D-scan model do88 could design new 2,25”; (57mm) intercooler pipes with smooth bends.
Squeezing in as large pipes as 2,25”; (57mm) is a challenge since it is not that much space between the engine cover and valve cover. Many after-market intercooler pipes make it impossible to snap the engine cover rubber grommets correctly onto its lock pins. We have solved this issue by their design of this pipe and that we include longer OE-style locking pipes for the engine cover.
do88 decided to not include methanol injector connections on their intercooler pipes since in their opinion it is better to have this after the intercooler. Their intercooler-throttle body (J-pipe) has 2 methanol injector connections.
The do88 final design is a full aluminum construction with mandrel bent pipes and CNC machined turbo flanges. do88 also include more durable silicone hoses that connects their pipes to the intercooler inlet flanges. For a cool stealthy look do88 include matte black hose clamps.
Significant advantages with do88 performance intercooler pipes:
- Improved reliability!
- Up to 4% better air flow!
- Matt black silicone couplers included!
- Maintained engine cover fit.
