Replace the Achilles heel of your factory cooling system with a stout and reliable mechanical thermostat setup.

The factory E46 thermostat housing is a combined unit featuring a plastic housing and a built in thermostat that you cannot replace separately. These plastic all-in-one units are commonly know to crack or fail causing a headache, a trip on the tow truck and possible damage to your engine.

Taking cues from the reliable M50 thermostat setup we designed a an assembly that not only converts your plastic housing into a billet aluminum unit but also swaps out the integrated thermostat for a separate replaceable thermostat. The ability to swap out thermostats separately from the whole housing opens up doors to changing thermostats to different temperature ratings based on your application while also providing lower maintenance costs. No longer do you have to replace the whole housing but just the thermostat itself.

The billet housing is designed to be utilized with E46 M3 upper and lower radiator hoses and also features -16 ORB connections for custom radiator hoses. A major upgrade from the factory and aftermarket plastic units. Our thermostat housing kit can be used by the savvy daily driver or the track hero who wants to ensure the durability of their cooling system.

Key benefits:

Uses M50/S50 mechanical thermostat for increased reliability
Option to use aftermarket colder thermostats if desired
Thermostat can be replaced separately for lower maintenance cost
Barbed hose connections for use with E46 M3 hoses or built in -16 ORB connections for custom radiator hoses
Design:

Machined out of a single piece of billet 6061 aluminum, this thermostat housing will withstand higher prolonged temperatures and abuse for performance applications
Black anodized with engraved Turner logo on the front to match the Turner Motorsports Power Steering Reservoir
Viton gasket for superior sealing performance

Unlike factory rubber hoses, silicone can withstand higher temperatures and pressures with minmal wear. Rubber will wear out and weaken so don't let it bite you when it counts! Silicone has been proven during extreme racing conditions and won't be the weak link that ruins your day.

This kit is specifically designed for the enthusiast that wants uprated cooling hoses, but also wants to address the heat-cycled plastic connectors and o-rings that are also prone to failure in higher mileage or older vehicles.

This E46 M3 ECS silicone hose set replaces two hoses - 
11537830716, upper radiator hose 
11537830715, lower radiator hose 

Ensure a tight and leak-free seal in your BMW's cooling, vacuum, or intake systems by installing a new adjustable hose clamp. Over time, clamps can deform or lose their tightness due to aging or frequent removal, potentially causing leaks in your coolant or vacuum hoses. Avoid the risk of leaks by replacing old clamps with new hardware, offering peace of mind against coolant and vacuum system issues.

Key benefits of the adjustable hose clamp include:

• Maintaining a secure and leak-free seal in your BMW's systems.
• Preventing coolant or vacuum leaks that can affect performance.
• Adjustable size from 70mm to 78mm for versatile applications.

Upgrade your hose clamps to ensure optimal performance and reliability in your BMW's systems.
