ModBargains is proud to introduce a new line to our 135i/335i intercoolers. Helix is world renowned for their unique step design intercooler. Helix spent countless hours to design their Stepped Core Intercooler (SCI). It features a larger frontal ambient face combined with thicker-than-stock core that seals to the radiator fan/shroud. The cast aluminum end tanks have factory mounting points and factory charge pipe angles.
Since Helix has come out with their stepped 135i/335i intercooler, their has been many imitators but non come close to the quality of Helix. The Helix SCI features cast end tanks for reduced turbulence and bull-nosed bars on the ambient face as well as the hot side of the intercooler. This increases air flow across the face of the intercooler as well as reducing pressure drop through the core. The core of the Helix SCI has increased fin density and will flow 400 horsepower with only a 0.5PSI pressure drop, while greatly reducing heat soak. Installation is straightforward and does not require removal of the front bumper. In rare circumstances, very minor trimming of the plastic shroud may be necessary depending on which model you have, but this is rare. Two sets of hands are usually all that is needed for a trim-free installation. NOTE: There have been changes to the intake charge pipe on models built after 04/09. You may need a different charge pipe to install the Helix SCI. Please call us at 714-582-3330 you need the adapter pipe for your Helix SCI.
