Helix Front Mount Intercooler

Category: Drivetrain
Price: $620
Private or Vendor Listing: Private Listing
Part fits (you may select multiples): R56
Location (Region): Midwestern
Item Condition: Used

Thinking of selling my Helix Intercooler. Not planning on selling immediately because I have to take my bumper off and remove it. But is there any interest in my intercooler if I do plan to sell it. Brand new it is $750 +Tax +Shipping. In the end it costs a little over $800 from Helix. Im asking $620. About $200 in savings. Would anyone be interested? If not I will keep it on. Doesn't look like the helix group buy thread is going anywhere. Trying to help my fellow R56 owners.

Nothing wrong with it. Just want a black intercooler to go with the tone of my car.

I feel like if I paint it, it would like restrict flow or something. I prefer buying an already black one. Lol. This is prob the best intercooler but I want to explore my horizons too. Maybe try a Forge, Evolve, or Wagner. Anyone up for grabs?

You are aware that the black ones are either painted or powdercoated aluminum ones right?

Yes I am aware.
I also want an intercooler that looks more centered. Don't think the OEM one was centered that's why all the intercoolers a look offset. I will post a pic later today if the weather is nice.

Sale is being put on hold at the moment.
Getting my tune in a few days. But probably be for sale again soon once I get a chance to order a new IC. Are you interested?

Confused

You already have the best intercooler why would you want to get rid of it? No need to get anything else that will handle everything you need you should just keep it. Doesn't make sense.
