I'm really interested to see how this install goes.

Keep us posted.

I don't know much about FMICs but from the pictures I've seen of the stock and other aftermarket FMICs that looks nothing like it...

It's way too tall, seems too narrow and it's definitely too thin.

Also, on the list of compatible models it doesn't list our 135i let alone any E82/E88/E87.

Some people have used Godspeed intercooler, but the majority of people i know use CXRacing's FMIC core. Just type in eBay; "n55 intercooler", and you will see CXracing's intercoolers.

here you go...but in general godspeed cores are junk and I would never recommend it to anyone for any application

Here's a pic of my n54 powered 135i

There's is a lot of cutting but it's definitely worth it and looks awesome

Cost me $300 for all the piping and intercooler

This is how I held mine up except I didn't use the black rubber since I didn't like how it looked

Coming from the Mazdaspeed community I would go with CXRacing than Godspeed. More people did that over there too.. I had a CXRacing one, it worked great.
