There is no info on G-Plus as far as any manual or documentation that shows their address. You are better off just contacting Amazon and asking if they will ship to Europe. Isn't there a European Amazon site? I think they have them on eBay also.

You could click on the G Plus intercooler and use ask a question through Amazon . I have asked about items and vendors usually respond.

[GTwice]

Well, that's the thing - I don't see an option anywhere to do it - I checked both the intercooler offer page, as well as G-Plus store homepage. Am I blind or what?

[clegg]

I went in and asked for you. This is how you get there;

If you go to the intercooler page on Amazon and click on "See more product details" (it's a bit below the price and information, then on that page click "View shipping rates and policies". That will take you to the page with the "Ask a question" box.

Obviously larger than stock. The intercooler fits (I wouldn't say 100% snug fit though, more like 90% but it works) reusing the oe c-clips and the two screws. This intercooler is not for you if you are looking to show off the IC looks. The black hides pretty well behind the bumper. I personally don't care because I saved at least $200 compared to others. No logs yet but will test with MHD very soon.

What do you mean it wasn't a 100% snug fit?? Mine fit perfectly.........were you wanting it to fit in there tighter??

What I mean is that for some reason I had to push the IC really hard for the IC mounting tabs to mate up to the holes, otherwise it was about 1cm too far from the hole. I couldn't see what was blocking it, tried repositioning it, no difference. Made it work in the end.

Actually...I had the same issue. I didn't really think much about it.....once I got the screws in, they pulled everything up nice and tight.

Here are a few logs I did this afternoon with my new G-Plus FMIC.

Cruising at 30mph my intake temps where around 75f (ambient temp is 64f). I did a 2nd through 4th gear pull. When I let off at 100mph, the intake air temp was 104f. Is that good or bad?

Above is a Log from a ARM 5''....

First I have two 3rd gear pulls from 2k~ - redline to show IATs,
First is stock second is arm intercooler.

Stock starts at 97 and ends at 129

ARM starts at 82 and ends at 95, cooler than what stock even started at.

What were the outside air temps when you were doing your log?

[335xirookie]

I just found this online while looking for inter cooler...

[bluesy_cube]

So...
I did install this about two weeks ago.

It's a direct P&P, but there's some issue with the fitment as what others mentioned above.
You have to reuse the bolts, but you will have some problem.

In my case, if you bolt on one side, the other side woudln't just fit at all.
I had to push upward really, really hard to be able to tighten up the bolt.
This took me more than an hour and with lots of frustration.
Eventually, one side bolt housing got busted, and had to use a bolt that's slightly bigger than the original one to tighten it up. Thanks goodness it didn't break the bolt housing otherwise I would've ended up with lots of cable ties.

Ended up working very well and saved more than $70.

It works, but I'd get something like ARM 5' or VRSF 5' if I could rewind my time.

[iqraceworks]

That's strange....mine went in really easy. I had to push a little bit to get the bolts started.....but that probably took me an extra 2min.

Looks very similar to the CSF intercooler but less than half the price. Good find

Will it fit a 335d?

I have the same question. It looks like there is another seller on Amazon that sells one for the 335D. I compared the sizes of the two and it looks like they are sized differently. The G-Force is taller by about an inch and an inch thinner.

G-Force:
Core length: 20"
Core height: 6"(lower side), 8'' (taller side)
Core thickness: 5"
Inlet /outlet size: 3.25"
End to end length: 27"approx.

335D:
Core Length: 20"
Core Height: 5" (Lower Side), 7" (Taller Side)
Core Thickness: 6"
Inlet / Outlet Size: 3.25"
End to End Length: 27" Approx.

Well damn. Looks like they don't sell it now. If anyone finds one for sale, please let me know.

I ran into the same problem and I discovered there was a small 2"x2" piece of plastic to aid airflow to the stocker that I left in place. Removed it and all my problems went away. At that moment I remembered the utube install video where it said to yank that same piece.

The piece is on the passenger side. If we are talking about the same piece. It just pulls out and give you just enough room. Once I pulled it out it went in easy.
