Technical Notes:

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+) 26x4.5x5.9” 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.


Performance Gains:

  • Drastically reduced charge air temperatures
    • Testing showed up to a decrease of 108 degrees (F) when comparing to the factory intercooler
  • Increased efficiency & consistency in power delivery
    • Testing showed up to a 40% increase in cooling efficiency when comparing to the factory intercooler
    • Testing showed up to 9 horsepower gains on a stock vehicle
  • Increased engine safety

 

Kit Includes:

  • (1) Intercooler Assembly w/ Billet End Tanks
  • (2) Mounting Brackets w/ Stainless Hardware
  • (2) Billet Aluminum Factory Charge Pipe Adapters
  • (1) Cardboard Stencil w/ “PRL” Logo
  • (2) PRL Factory Style Replacement O-Rings

    Fantastic Fit & Finish. PRL is it!

    "The build quality was bananas. I've purchased a few intercoolers in the past and none of them held a candle to the quality of this one. Taking off the stock intercooler it became instantly clear why so many people swap them out. Car ran great with maintained response even after cruising for an hour. This is on the stock tune, also. I just really wanted increased peace of mind during spirited driving. Install was a breeze as well. Hardest part was all the dang bumper clips, which were just annoying more than anything. Oh, and I was a doofus and tried to install the intercooler upside down. Once I flipped it over it slid right in with OEM-like fitment. I can't wait to get my PRL motor mount on soon, and I know I'll be a returning customer in the future."

    Q&A

    Are the intercooler charge pipes and high volume intercooler outlet necessary for the intercooler to be used? Or is the intercooler a direct bolt on with the stock plastic pipes? Thanks!
    Greetings. You can Install with Factory Charge Piping or you can pair it with Our Charge Pipe Kit
    Does the black one come with the big PRL lettering in the front ?
    It does not but we include a stencil with every intercooler so you can customize it to your liking!
    Does the coating on the black intercooler impede its performance?
    The powder coating will not impede the performance of the intercooler.
