I also have a m performance steering wheel that shows oil and water temperature. before installing do88 the water temperature (street driving only) will range between 100c to 110+, with the FMIC/CP/TP it ranges between 80c to 90c. |

I installed the do88 IC today together with my friend who has loads of experience while having been a teacher at a mechanic school for most of his working life. I have like very close to zero skills and experience in this area so I sort of rely on him doing my mechanical work
Anyways, the IC looks great and oozes quality in my opinion. I had a Forge chargepipe and Boodmod3 Stage 1 installed last year and have noticed the degradation of performance on hot days so was looking forward to this install. We had loads of problems getting the tube on the turbo pipe side to come loose. Even though it was clearly unclipped it hang on to the stock IC like Trump to power (too soon? ) Suddenly, after about three hours of putting lube, twisting, turning and pulling it suddenly came loose. Had it not been for this it would've been about a 1-2 hours install at moderate speed. We also had to cut away the plastic air guide to be able to squeeze in the new IC but this was not a big problem after having realized it had to be done.. I didn't really get a chance to push the car on my drive home but I felt nothing negative for sure and knowing that my car will get the cooler air is a comfort. The car also looks better from the front with the dark IC. I don't doubt that this is a quality product even though I'm not the best suited guy to do an actual review about any noticeable change in performance. |

These intercooler installs are not as easy as people seem to make them out to be. I wrestled a 5” intercooler for hours and couldn’t get it squeezed in between the additional front brace the M2 has that other N55 cars do not. It’s not a job I’d recommend doing on jack stands or ramps, and if you’re doing it at home, removing the bumper might be your best bet.

I was ready to call the quits but my more experienced friend said that it would come of sooner or later, in one way or another. It just felt so "unfair" when a youtube video showed a guys just easily taking the original IC out like it was nothing to it...

I ran my car around Silverstone last week (it's fitted with a do88 intercooler).
I was running bm3 stage 2 91 map, but with 93 fuel. The car was mega - very quick and revved freely upto 7k all day long! I didn't get a log unfortunately (as my bm3 WiFi adapter wasn't playing game) but the do88 clearly did its job well to enable the engine to pull and rev as it did. Engine temp stayed central on the dash layout. |
