Key Features:

- Large 20"x5.5"x6" (26.5"x5.5"x6" with end tanks) High Density Bar & Plate Construction Intercooler Core
- Cast end tanks for improved durability and internal flow characteristics.
- Mirror polished finish on intercooler assembly and piping.
- Optional Type III Hard Black Anodising (for stealth) finish on intercooler, end tanks and all piping. Hard anodising helps improve durability of intercooler fins against damage from road debris (rocks).
- Complete all aluminium intercooler piping, replaces all OEM rubber hoses with hard piping for improved throttle response and faster boost spool up.
- Improved intercooler inlet and outlet pipes for better flow characteristics.
- Intercooler piping features beaded ends, silicone "hump" hoses and T-bolt clamps to prevent intercooler piping from coming off from boost.
- Optional Carbon Fibre Shrouding to direct airflow through the intercooler for improved efficiency.
- Maintains ALL factory components.
- Includes all hardware needed to install.
- Developed under the harsh conditions of racing on our 135i Race Car.
- Lifetime Warranty.

The heart of the ER Competition FMIC is the massive 20"x5.5"x6" (26.5"x5.5"x3" with end tanks) high density bar and plate intercooler core. It features 660 cubic inches of very efficient high density bar & plate core (35% larger) versus the factory 425 cubic inches of less efficient tube & fin core. Through extensive testing of different types of intercooler cores (tube & fin, bar & plate) Evolution Racewerks found that the high density bar and plate core to be the most efficient. Independent testing has shown that our FMIC is so efficient in cooling that it has cooled intake air temperatures (IAT) to almost ambient (outside) temperatures.

One of the most overlooked aspect of intercooler design is the intercooler end tank and piping. Having shorter and less bends on the intercooler piping will promote better internal flow. This helps in reducing turbo lag, increase throttle response and faster boost spool ups. An intercooler end tank must be designed to channel and distribute air coming in from the inlet efficiently throughout the intercooler core. Evolution Racewerks end tanks design has been revised numerous times to promote smooth internal air flow. The cast end tanks allow us to have nice smooth radius on the inner edges of the end tank, causing less turbulence. The inlet pipe angle has been changed to provide a smooth entry into the end tank and removes an extra bend that the factory hoses have. Rubber hosing expands under boost pressure. This expansion disrupts internal flow and causes turbulence, all of which slow down airflow velocity (which causes slower boost spool up and decreased throttle response). By replacing ALL the factory rubber hoses with hard piping, noticeable increases in boost spool up and faster throttle response can be seen.

All Evolution Racewerks intercooler applications come standard with a mirror polish intercooler and piping. They also offer and stock their intercooler applications with Type III Hard Black Anodising for a stealthy look. Another added benefit of the Type III Hard Anodising is that it makes the intercooler fins harder and stronger, which makes it less prone to getting bent/damaged from road debris like rocks etc... Testing has shown no noticeable ill-effect from the Type III Hard Anodising on performance (regular spray paint etc... has shown ill-effects on performance).

Evolution Racewerks Competition FMIC is offered in 3 different packages:

- Basic Kit:
The Basic Kit consists of the intercooler assembly, upper intercooler piping, silicone hump hoses and t-bolt clamps. Everything you need to install the FMIC on your car and is what is typically included in most FMIC kits out in the market.

- Standard Kit:
The Standard Kit consists of everything included in the Basic Kit but adds the Diverter Valve Charge Pipe. The Diverter Valve Charge Pipe allows easy upgrades of the Diverter Valve or Blow Off Valves. Increase throttle response as well as decrease turbo lag are the benefits of the new Diverter Valve Charge Pipe.

- Full Kit:
The Full Kit consists of everything included in both the Basic and Standard Kits but adds the Carbon Fibre FMIC Shrouding Kit. The carbon fibre shrouding channels airflow from the centre grill to the intercooler core. Air wants to travel through the path of least resistance, which in this case is around the intercooler core instead of through it. The carbon fibre shrouding prevents this and forces air to travel through the core.
