    Smile HPF Twin Turbo M5 (Intercooler Pictures)

    We're back on track with our M5 twin turbo development. I just wanted to show you guys the front mount intercooler. Here are some pictures I just took.

    Enjoy...

    So with this whole DME editing software supposedly about to hit the market....what is HPF's plan for tuning? Still planning on running AEM standalones like in the E46's?

    Pics look great by the way.

    +1, of course this is personal preference and all cosmetic. Im sure that thing does a hell of a job.

    No doubt it is designed properly, but I have to agree that it looks sortof goofy. I think its because its so wide. Anyone care to PS it black for our entertainment?

    We're running an FMIC that has a slightly larger volume than our E46 M3 intercooler. We really don't care about whether people like the look of the seam in the middle. It's designed to use the entire front bumper opening to cool the intake air charge. The intake air stream goes right down the center, and the airflow into the front of the car has nowhere to go but right through the intercooler. The cooling capability of this intercooler is going to be incredible. I will post up intake air temps once we get everything dialed. We can anodize the IC black, or put up an mesh cover in front to disguise the intercooler. Either way it's going to be one hell of a sleeper.

    Chris.

    Holy cow talk about grills.
    What kind of management is HPF using for the M5? Sticking with AEM again?
