Fitment on a used intercooler varies by vehicle, so a bit of detail goes a long way. Our request form covers what breakers need to know, so every quote you get back is for the correct part:
Yes, every BMW M8 uses the S63 twin-turbocharged 4.4-litre V8 engine, and all turbocharged engines require an intercooler to cool the charged air between the turbos and the intake manifold. The M8 uses a water-to-air intercooler setup integrated within the intake system, so the part does exist and is a legitimate search on any variant of this car.
The BMW M8 (F91/F92/F93 generation) launched in 2019 and all models through to the end of production share the same S63 engine code, which is the primary fitment factor for the intercooler. In principle, units from across that production run should correspond, but ancillary fittings and mounting details can change mid-production, so confirm against your exact registration with the breaker before purchasing.
Trim level does not drive intercooler fitment — what matters is the engine code, and both the standard M8 and the M8 Competition use variants of the S63 V8. That said, the Competition model does receive engine tune differences, so confirm with the breaker that the unit they have came from the same engine code variant as yours, quoting your registration or VIN for certainty.
The intercooler itself is determined by the engine, not the body style, and all M8 body variants (Coupé, Convertible, and Gran Coupé) share the S63 engine family. In practice the intercooler unit and core pipework should be the same across body styles, but mounting brackets or ancillary connections can vary, so check those details with the breaker against your specific registration.
The single most useful thing you can provide is your engine code, which you can find on your V5C or by running a VIN check — on the M8 this will be a variant of the S63. Also tell the breaker your model year and whether your car is a standard M8 or Competition, as this helps them cross-reference the donor vehicle and flag any differences in ancillary fittings or sensors that might affect your swap.
The intercooler itself is not an electronic component, so straightforward coding concerns are less of an issue than with parts like DMEs or gearboxes. However, if your intercooler assembly includes any integrated sensors or solenoids, whether those require any configuration is something to confirm with your fitting garage or the breaker rather than assume.
