Ditch your failure-prone plastic end tanks and increase cooling capacity by 25%�all without modifying your core support or accompanying shrouds. The CSFxTurner Performance Triple-Pass Radiator is the best cooling system upgrade for your S54-equipped BMW! The E46 M3 is a masterclass in German engineering. Harboring six independent throttle bodies, infinitely variable dual-VANOS, and an 8,000 RPM redline, the S54 is practically a racing engine for the road. Unfortunately, the engine's motorsport pedigree didn't quite make it to the cooling system. The OEM radiator, while superior to its non-M counterpart, struggles to keep coolant temperature in check under sustained high-RPM conditions. Heat soak, elevated operating temperatures, and component fatigue are all too familiar to M3 owners who track their S54 regularly.

If your BMW has a plastic expansion tank and it is still intact after years of heat cycling, consider yourself lucky - however, it is not a question of whether or not it will fail, it is a question of when it will fail. You can tell your significant other that this is "cheap insurance" against being stuck on the side of the highway. Story from our BMW Brand Manager: After a track event, my plastic expansion tank blew up on a three hour commute home - my wife was not happy sitting on the side of the highway waiting for a tow. I am certain that she would have been much happier if I installed the Turner aluminum expansion tank before the event.

Upgrade your E46 driving experience by adding induction noises and increased air flow. Let your engine breath by removing the suffocating enclosed intake box and get ready to hear sounds you never thought your naturally aspirated inline 6 could make. Whoever said you need forced induction to make addicting suction noises clearly has not tried this system.

Our ECS Tuning Rear Stress Bar Kit stiffens the chassis in the rear of your MK5/6 in the area most prone to chassis flex during hard cornering or changes in road surfaces. Our Stress Bar helps to stiffen the rear chassis from undesired torsional flexing of the body which allows for faster turn-in speed and flatter cornering, while reducing chassis creaks and groans. Our Rear Stress Bar Kit achieves all of these great benefits while maintaining functionality with the rear seatbacks in all positions, & no noticeable increase in NVH.

The perfect way to unleash hidden horsepower in a modern turbocharged engine is to upgrade the restrictive factory downpipe with a smoother, higher flowing unit. This is a great way to increase performance and add a sophisticated growl to the exhaust note. Ideal performance is achieved through expelling exhaust gasses at maximum velocity through a larger diameter, freer flowing downpipe due to smoother bend radius, larger internal diameter and a less-restrictive catalytic converter.

The Volkswagen 7L (Touareg 1 & 2), 7P (Touareg 3) and related Porsche Cayenne (955, 957 and 958) platform is an unsuspecting, yet remarkable off-road rig, even in stock form. With some models including a low range transfer case, a locking rear differential and even a height adjustable air ride suspension, these are very capable SUV's for the roads that are less traveled. With all of these great features there are some limitations to how far it can be pushed. Like other trucks and SUV's that tackle the trails you'll need sufficient protection, unless you dare to risk serious damage to critical underbody components as you crawl, creep and drive over treacherous rocks, boulders and steep terrain. As our Engineering Team dove in deeper to the Overland / Off-Road realm we realized the need for a serious skid plate, engineered to properly handle such excursions.

Take your F3X to the next level with upgraded performance and aesthetic. Our ECS lowering springs are specifically designed with both handling and comfort in mind for the best mix or performance and drivability. With an average lowering range of 1.0" - 1.4" you have the added benefit of lower center of gravity providing superior cornering and better steering feedback. Lowering springs not only increase handling performance they provide an astounding aesthetic upgrade by decreasing the wheel gap and giving your car a more planted/fitted appearance.

Performance is all about keeping cool, especially for forced induction engines. Heat and restricted airflow are our enemies. The new ECS Intercooler and Charge Pipe kit for your B7 A4 fights back with the efficiency and cooling your engine needs to regain some of that power lost to the factory counterpart. With our intercooler, you can expect lower intake air temperatures by up to 17 degrees and experience a 26% increase in intercooler efficiency. All this is good for a hearty WHP gain from a direct bolt-on upgrade. Keep your B7 A4 cool this summer with the ECS intercooler kit.

The factory BMW charge pipes are prone to cracking, as they are made from brittle plastic. Here at ECS, we sell several brands of replacement charge pipes that are typically made from cast aluminum. We recommend upgrading to hard charge pipes even on stock forced induction vehicles to avoid cracking - we've seen cracking occur on high mileage cars running stock power just as frequently as we do with high horsepower builds.

Upgrading your MK5 or MK6 with a Front Mount Intercooler is an effective way to decrease charge-air temperatures and increase performance potential but that also requires you to retain the original intercooler since that carries the A/C condenser, radiator, and fan shroud. Naturally, that reduces the airflow to your bigger intercooler and robs you of optimal efficiency. Our new OEM Intercooler Delete Brackets allow you to ditch that old intercooler while retaining your radiator, condenser, and fan shroud for a sleek, lightweight, and free-flowing performance intercooler upgrade.
