Fitment Notes: - Fits All 2017-2021 Honda Civic Type-R Models Including RHD, International Models, Etc - Fits Factory Charge Piping Or Pair With Our Charge Pipe Upgrade Kit For Optimal Performance
Please Read Before Ordering: - Does Not Require Tune - Current Design Retains Factory Intercooler Bolts & Hardware
Technical Notes: - It's no secret that Honda's 2.0L turbo Civic is extremely susceptible to heat-soak, especially when retaining the factory intercooler. Excessive heat-soak increases the risk of detonation and causes major power-loss due to high charge air and cylinder temperatures. These issues become even more prevalent with spirited driving and/or increased power outputs. - The PRL Motorsports intercooler upgrade decreases charge air temperatures while increasing potential airflow with its dense 26.5 x 3.5 x 7.25" 550+ horsepower rated bar-and-plate core. Our intercooler core which increases surface area by 85% and internal flow by 83% to allow optimal cooling and airflow. Billet machined aluminum end tanks maximize efficiency while looking as smooth as they flow! - This intercooler utilizes factory mounting spots with our billet machined end tanks as well as all factory air ducts/shrouds. To maintain consistency with most of our PRL product line, no cutting, fitting or trimming is required. Kits will come with all hardware needed for a seamless install.
