20 years ago people could only dream of a BMW M engine in an SUV. Fast-forward to today and we have three BMW SUVs powered by the M5’s Twin-Turbo V8 engine: the F95 X5M, F96 X6M, and G09 XM. These SUVs are not only the pinnacle of Luxury and Performance, but also practical. You can run errands, commute, and take the family out while having the power to gap most sports cars on the road.

Sharing an engine with the M5 and M6 meant there are readily available tunes and power upgrades for these SUVs. The BMW S63 motor can crank out over 800hp on stock internals. However, that extra power creates a lot more heat. F9X M5/M6 owners rely on the CSF Charge-Air-Coolers (CSF #8178) for years to deal with that extra heat. After many requests for a version for the M SUVs, CSF is pleased to announce the High-Performance Charge-Air-Coolers for the F95 X5M, F96 X6M, and G08 XM.

The Charge-Air-Coolers come in an OEM+ Crinkle Black Finish. In addition, custom finishes are available at an additional cost for those looking for a more unique engine bay look.

Design & Engineering

CSF originally designed the BMW S63 Charge-Air-Coolers for the F9X M5/M6. Over five hundred of these Intercooler kits have been sold with many of them on 1000+ hp builds. Due to their popularity and success, CSF has received many requests to have a set made to fit the X5M and X6M. CSF worked with Steve Dinan’s Carbahn to develop a mounting hardware solution. The result – a true plug-and-play system requiring no modifications to install that will take your M SUV to a whole new level.

OEM VS CSF

The CSF Charge-Air-Cooler Cores are ~100% larger in volume than the factory coolers. These cores were custom designed using CFD analysis and testing to ensure optimal performance as well as perfect fitment. Both coolers come with OEM-Style “Quick Connect” water connections as well as sensor ports for fast and easy installation
