"Spaansport" has got an intercooler on ebay, claims from a factory turbo six series... So I messaged them, questioning this item, cuz I hadn't heard of factory turbos other than the 745i and 2002tii. They replied ...

"For you authorities out there, in Germany it was a very common conversion to place the 106 type motor ( if you know what that is) into the e-24 body style. The intercooler was made by LANGERE & REICH. If you do some research you will find part number 3.7098.2.11.
There' always something to learn! "

Well, that may be so, but I'm checking... anyone heard of this before? Eight digits doesn't fit the 11-digit BMW numbering scheme AFAIK...?
 
It might be common, but it's not factory. There were no factory turbo 6's. That is the factory intercooler from an e23 745i. He's asking too much for it, they usually go for about $75 used.
