This Forge aluminium charge cooler is a direct-fit replacement for the factory unit on N54 twin turbo and N55 single turbo models, delivering significantly lower intake air temperatures of up to 30°C while keeping pressure drop to a minimum for strong, consistent power on the road, track or dyno.

Why enthusiasts choose this cooler

• Up to 30°C reduction in intake temps for denser, oxygen-rich charge air

• Low restriction design to help maintain boost response and drivability
• Direct-fit install with CNC machined quick-release bayonet connectors

Engineered to resist heat soak

After extensive evaluation of core volumes and fin geometry, Forge selected a high-efficiency bar-and-plate heat exchanger with increased surface area and optimised end tank flow paths. The result is stronger resistance to heat soak versus the stock cooler, reduced charge temperature under sustained load and improved consistency for tuned and remapped cars. Expect dependable performance for spirited road driving, track days and summer conditions.
