AIRTEC Motorsport Front Mount Chargecooler Radiator Upgrade for BMW B58 Models
AIRTEC Motorsport presents their solution to improving the original set up of BMW B58 models with limited space behind the bumper. Instead of making it wider or taller, they have extended it forwards by introducing a core that is nearly 60mm thicker, at 90mm in depth. This innovative design allows the coolant to pass through the radiator three times before it exits, increasing the capacity to a huge 23.3 litres, compared to the original 7.7 litres; a gain of 203%.
The Issue
As the performance of chargecooled-engines depends on the temperature of the coolant, it is crucial to ensure it runs as cool as possible for as long as possible. The standard system can struggle to maintain temperature, especially on a tuned application. To achieve a consistently lower running temperature, it is essential to increase the capacity of the system and its ability to cool.
The Solution
AIRTEC Motorsportâs solution involves extending the radiator forwards to accommodate a thicker core. This triple pass core design allows the coolant to pass through the radiator three times before exiting, significantly increasing the capacity to 23.3 litres. Despite the substantial cooling capacity increase, the radiator fits neatly behind the bumper without any modifications, using the OEM mounts and original coolant connectors. Additionally, a stone guard is included to protect the larger core in its vulnerable position at the front of the car.
The front mount chargecooler radiator upgrade is finished in a high-quality powder-coated black finish. The comprehensive fitting kit includes all fixtures and a detailed instruction fitting guide.
