Mishimoto Intercooler Black IC Only 2012-2016 BMW F22 F30

Intercooler: The Mishimoto Intercooler Black IC Only 2012-2016 BMW F22 F30 provides targeted charge-air cooling to improve intake-air temperature control and reduce heat soak on turbocharged N20/26 and N55 engines, increasing consistency and reliability under sustained load.

This intercooler is designed specifically for 2012–2016 BMW F22 and F30 chassis applications and is supplied as the black core assembly only. It addresses the known weak point of the factory unit on turbocharged BMW motors by delivering an upgraded charge-air component that integrates into the existing cooling and intake system.

Why this matters: Cooler intake charge temperatures help maintain detonation margin and engine control reliability during repeated high-load events. Replacing the stock intercooler with a dedicated performance unit reduces the tendency for intake temperature rise under sustained boost, preserving engine safety and consistent output.

Mishimoto pedigree: Mishimoto is cited for focused thermal-management solutions for performance vehicles. This intercooler leverages the brand’s application-specific approach to provide a direct-replacement core designed for the N20/26 and N55 package found in these BMW chassis.

Fit and integration: Supplied as the core-only unit, it is intended to integrate with the vehicle’s factory mounting points and ancillary plumbing when used with the appropriate stock or aftermarket couplers and piping. Installation maintains the vehicle’s original routing and does not change intended airflow paths when properly installed.

Application notes: Intended for owners of 2012–2016 BMW F22 and F30 models with N20/26 or N55 turbocharged engines who require improved thermal stability from the charge-air system. This listing is for the black intercooler core only; hardware or additional components are not included unless specified in the order contents.
