As Gen 1 B58 BMWs become popular competition and big-power builds – many now well past 600hp – the factory charge-air cooler manifold becomes the bottleneck. It heat soaks under hard use, pulls timing and can send the car into limp mode, and on high-boost cars the crimped seam between core and tanks is a known failure point. CSF's billet "Super Manifold" is the complete answer.
Developed from CSF's proven Gen 2 B58 manifold with input from race teams and engineering partners VF Engineering, it doubles cooling capacity, adds top-feed port injection and nitrous/methanol provisions, and comes with a KIYLEX Thermal Rejection Spacer and a comprehensive, clearly labelled hardware kit.
Please note: available in Raw Billet Aluminium, Thermal Dispersion Black (Cerakote) or a Custom Finish of your choice. Custom finishes are made to order – please contact us to confirm your colour/finish and lead time before ordering.
