CSF - BMW S58 "Level-Up" Charge Air Cooler Manifold - Raw Billet

The CSF by PWR S58 "Level-Up" Charge-Air-Cooler Manifold was engineered to maximize cooling efficiency and reliability for BMW's S58-powered platforms, including the G8X M3/M4/M2, and F9X X3M/X4M. Featuring a custom PWR bar-and-plate core with over 23% more volume than stock, the manifold delivers superior cooling efficiency with virtually no pressure drop. Precision TIG-welded billet aluminum construction replaces the factory plastic components, providing exceptional durability under extremely high boost levels.

In addition to the performance benefits, the CSF Manifold was engineered for straightforward installation and upgradability. It is a true plug-and-play design requiring no modification to the vehicle. The manifold features integrated provisions for port injection, bungs for nitrous/methanol systems, a parameter for additional sensors, and a convenient bleeder port for simplified servicing.

The CSF S58 "Level-Up" Charge-Air Cooler Manifold delivers the ultimate cooling solution for BMW owners looking for the best performance and long-term reliability on the street or track.

Core Key Features

• Both air-side & water-side thickness of the fin is .08mm, ~50% of the thickness of a conventional bar/plate core.
• Air side bar w/ cladding is 5.35mm tall. Compared to ~7.5mm tall of a conventional bar/plate core, ~30% shorter allowing for more rows of both water and air to be built into the core design for more surface area contact, resulting in better heat dissipation
• Cladding sheet from PWR is .3mm thick, ~50% of the thickness of a conventional bar/plate core.
• Fins per inch: Air side 28 FPI, ~100% more than the conventional bar/plate core, typically 15 FPI. Uses a rolled fin measuring 2.43mm tall. A rolled fin has more surface area contact against the water-side cladding sheets at the apex of each point where it's brazed together compared to a serpentine style fin (think zig zag design)
• Fins per inch: Water side 26 FPI (vs. conventional bar/plate core ~18 FPI). The inside turbulator is LOT Style (lance-off-turbulator) with a 2.00mm Fin height. This type of turbulator scatters the water molecules inside the core for more surface area contact against the air-side cladding sheets.
• Side end plates are only 1.5mm each, and the extrusions used at the end of each row are ultra-lightweight and pocketed. These extrusions are only 3mm wide on both the water and air side of the core, maximizing the amount of core volume which is used for heat transfer. Just enough to weld tanks on by a very experienced and talented welder.
