2023+ Honda Civic Type-R FL5 Intercooler Upgrade Testing Data
Now that our prototype billet end tanks are complete and sample cores are in, we have decided put together a few functioning intercoolers to test that our design lived up to its expectations. Our engineers datalogged some street driving with our 2023 Honda Civic Type-R FL5 using both the factory and PRL Motorsports intercooler upgrade before heading to the dyno. The dyno session was started by taking a completely stock baseline run at an average temperature of 59°F and an elevation of 1160ft. Here’s what we found:

2022+ Honda Civic & 2023+ Acura Integra High Volume "Plus" Cold Air Intake Duct Release
This kit transforms our standard High Volume Intake System into a true cold air intake by introducing cool air through the inner fender liner, which increases airflow and lowers intake air temperatures and heat-soak. This design also increases intake system efficiency when driving in low pressure (drafting) zones.
