The do88 Intercooler J-pipe for the BMW M2 Competition, M3 and M4 F8X It is designed as a direct replacement for the original intercooler tube between the intercooler and the throttle body. The original plastic tube is known as a weak point and can tear or crack, which can lead to a loss of pressure in the intake system.
This do88 Intercooler J-pipe is made from 6061 aluminum and developed based on a detailed 3D scan of a BMW M3 Competition engine bay. Thanks to the cast design with a constant diameter of 3.5" / 89 mm Up to the throttle body, a smooth routing is created that is not possible with traditional mandrel-bent tubing.
