Hi friends.

I've been on the brink of going FBO and bm3 stage 2 for the longest time and have decided to finally pull the trigger.

Car is 2014 f30 335i. All stock except a CST intake and bm3 stage 1.

Im going to get charge pipe, catted DP (active autowerke or wagner) and an intercooler.

My question is what size intercooler should i be looking at? My car is a daily that does alot of highway kms. I dont drive like a maniac 90% of the time.

Mike from x-ph recommends a 6" cooler such as the CSF and says lag wont be an issue. (Thanks for answering all my incessant questions mike!)

But ive also read detailed intercooler reviews that talk about increased turbo lag and sluggish throttle response with a massive intercooler. Considering im not always pushing the car to the limits i was thinking a smaller 5.5" cooler like the Active Autowerke one would be better suited?


Any feedback would be appreciated thanks!
