R5x HELIX Stepped core intercooler

Category: Drivetrain
Price: $500
Private or Vendor Listing: Private Listing
Part fits (you may select multiples): R56, R57, R58, R59
Location (Region): NorthEast
Item Condition: Used

This is a great unit in great shape. Low mileage! HELIX Stepped core intercooler: End tanks painted stealth black. This intercooler worked wonders on my tuned JCW GP2. Never had any trouble with heat soak. One of the Connectors has a welded end no issues and holds boost fine, just need oompf to push the connector on.I am asking $500 plus shipping OBO. PM or email me with any questions. Thanks for looking!

I have the same intercooler and it works and fits great. Mine is not painted black on the sides though. Is that something you did and what is the purpose?

less heat soak mostly the paint insulates.
