If you’re into the Gen 1 B58 BMWs, you probably know they’re starting to show their age. But that just means more tuners and enthusiasts are diving into the scene, especially for competition. With many of these beasts pushing over 600 horsepower, there’s a growing need for parts that can handle the heat—literally. That’s where the CSF "Super Manifold" comes in. It’s not just another piece; it’s a serious upgrade that packs a punch with features that stand out in the market. One of the standout features is the Thermal Rejection Spacer. If you’ve ever been stuck in a staging lane during a drag event, you know how quickly things can heat up. The stock setup can suffer from heat soak, leading to higher intake air temperatures (IATs) on subsequent runs. The CSF manifold is designed to combat that, keeping things cooler when it counts. Made from solid Billet Aluminum and fully TIG welded, this manifold is built to take the pressure. Compared to the OEM plastic option, it can handle higher boost levels without breaking a sweat. Aluminum’s better thermal conductivity means it transfers heat more efficiently, which is crucial for performance. Plus, the Thermal Rejection Spacer acts as a barrier, absorbing heat from the cylinder head instead of passing it along to the manifold. This is a game changer for anyone serious about racing or just pushing their car to the limit. Installation is a breeze, too. The hardware kit comes with everything you need—brackets, bolts, washers, and all that jazz—packaged neatly with clear instructions. Whether you’re a seasoned mechanic or a DIY enthusiast, you’ll appreciate the thought that went into making this as user-friendly as possible. The stock manifold does fine for lightly modified cars, but once you start adding bolt-ons, turbo upgrades, or performance tuning, it starts to show its weaknesses. Heat soak can become an issue, especially in demanding conditions like time attack or drag racing. The CSF manifold is designed to avoid those pitfalls, keeping your IATs low and your performance high. Another cool feature is the top feed port injection setup, complete with a fuel rail. It’s designed for easy plug-and-play installation, so you won’t be tearing your hair out trying to get it to fit. Plus, it has individual ports for nitrous or methanol injection, ensuring even spray distribution across all cylinders. And let’s talk about maintenance. The recessed design allows easy access to the spin-off oil filter, so you won’t have to remove the manifold every time you change your oil. CSF has even accounted for the airflow issues that can arise with such designs, using SolidWorks CFD software to create a counterbalanced protrusion that optimizes airflow. The manifold also features an integrated air divider to ensure consistent airflow to all cylinders, which is crucial for performance. And if you’re looking to monitor additional parameters, there are three 1/8th NPT ports for that. In short, if you’re looking to take your Gen 1 B58 BMW to the next level, the CSF Charge Air Cooler Manifold is worth considering. With its robust design, thoughtful features, and proven performance, it’s a solid investment for anyone serious about their ride.

If the radiator is installed and is returned deformed (bulging tanks, warped core etc.), this is an indication that the radiator is the victim of some other problem and not the cause. The deformation is a result of the radiator being subjected to extremely high pressure and or temperature caused by any of the following reasons:Defective Pressure Cap, Defective Head Gasket, Defective Temperature gauge (incorrect readings), Defective Water Pump etc. Such units are not covered under the warranty.

If a radiator seems to have a “fit problem” there is the possibility that there is some confusion about a multi-fit radiator that might look different. Your nearest CSF WD can clarify the application, just give them a call. A perceived fit problem is not covered under warranty.

If a unit is damaged in shipping, please file a claim with the carrier. Damages caused during shipping, installation or handling are not covered under warranty.
