PRL Motorsports Billet Intercooler Upgrade - 2022+ Civic 1.5T (FE1/FE2)

It’s no secret that Honda’s 1.5L 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 550+ horsepower rated (though we have pushed 600+) 21.6x4.5x5.9” bar-and-plate bar-and-plate core and machined billet aluminum end tanks! This intercooler utilizes factory mounting spots with our embossed end tanks. Kits will come with all hardware needed for a seamless install.

Important Notes:

• NO ECU CALIBRATION REQUIRED
• FITS FACTORY CHARGE PIPING
• PAIR WITH OUR CHARGE PIPE UPGRADE KIT FOR OPTIMAL PERFORMANCE
