Does the AWE Turbo Inlet Tube for FL5 work with the factory airbox?

Yes. The tube ships with two silicone couplers, one for the factory airbox and one for the AWE Carbon Airbox. The carbon airbox is not included; AWE sells it separately as the S-FLO Carbon Fiber Intake, and the two together form the complete S-FLO system.

Does the Civic Type R need a tune after fitting the inlet tube?

No. AWE rates the Turbo Inlet Tube for FL5 and DE5 cars no tune required and covers it with the AWE No Check Engine Light Guarantee when correctly installed. It fits every factory-fitment turbocharger on the K20C1 in both cars.

How much power does a turbo inlet add on the FL5?

AWE publishes no figure for the tube alone. Its 20 hp and 16 lb-ft at the wheels is for the complete S-FLO system, the carbon airbox plus this tube, on a 2023 FL5 Civic Type R with 91 octane software and an AWE exhaust.

Will the AWE carbon inlet tube fit a bigger turbo?

Yes, by design. The machined aluminum turbo flange and its coupler are removable, so the carbon tube can be adapted to larger aftermarket turbochargers with bigger inlets. It suits an FL5 or DE5 build that is heading toward a turbo upgrade.

Does the inlet tube fit the Acura Integra Type S?

Yes. AWE lists the same part number for the 2024 and later DE5 Acura Integra Type S and the 2023 and later FL5 Honda Civic Type R, which share the K20C1 2.0 liter turbo engine and the same factory mounting locations.

AWE Tuning S-FLO Carbon Turbo Inlet Tube for FL5 Honda Civic Type R and DE5 Acura Integra Type S

AWE Tuning’s S-FLO Carbon Turbo Inlet Tube for FL5 Honda Civic Type R and DE5 Acura Integra Type S takes over the run from airbox to compressor on the K20C1, replacing the factory inlet assembly with a matte 2×2 carbon fiber tube and 39% more cross-sectional area than stock. At the turbo it seats on a machined aluminum flange that comes off by design, so the tube can follow the car to a larger aftermarket turbocharger. AWE engineered it in Pennsylvania alongside its S-FLO carbon airbox, with no tune required. It is for the owner who plans the next stage before the current one is finished.

Modular by Design

Couplers are supplied for the factory airbox and for the AWE Tuning S-FLO Carbon Fiber Intake, so the tube works with either. AWE publishes its power figures for the complete system rather than the tube alone; on a stock turbo, buy it for the larger path, the carbon finish and the headroom it leaves for a turbo upgrade.

Notes

This Turbo Inlet Tube for FL5 and DE5 cars is the inlet tube only; the carbon airbox is sold separately as the AWE Tuning S-FLO Carbon Fiber Intake
AWE’s 20 hp and 16 lb-ft wheel gains were recorded on the complete S-FLO system, fitted to a 2023 FL5 Civic Type R running 91-octane software and an AWE exhaust; they are not a bolt-on figure for the tube alone

About AWE Tuning

AWE Tuning began in 1991 as an installer of aftermarket parts, which is why every AWE product carries a written Fitment Guarantee. It designs, machines and tests in-house at its headquarters in Horsham, Pennsylvania, outside Philadelphia, with its own Mustang chassis dynamometer; one recent AWE carbon intake took more than 350 hours of development. AWE is best known for its handcrafted Touring Edition, Track Edition and SwitchPath exhausts, alongside carbon fiber intakes and intercoolers.

Additional Information

The Bulletproof Automotive website contains many thousands of products purchased in multiple different currencies. All of the prices are entered manually and accurately at the time of entry. Due to the consistently fluctuating international exchange rates, at times prices may not be able to be honored at their original intended rate. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause, unfortunately our website is unable to compensate dynamically for what can at times be volatile changes in the cost of items due to currency values fluctuating, changes in prices from suppliers, changes in shipping and import duties, and other factors. Rest assured that any order you place on line will be at zero risk to you in this area. If in the event your order cannot be fulfilled at the original intended website price we will offer you a 100% refund, no questions asked. We will continue to do our best to maintain updated prices and we will always continue to offer our price match guarantees as well to ensure our prices are always the best for you. In short, prices may change without notice. It is always advised to give us a call prior to placing your order online to confirm availability and to confirm current pricing.

Shipping Policy

Items that are in stock in the US, either at Bulletproof’s warehouse or at a supplier’s warehouse, are generally delivered within 7-10 days. Special order items from overseas take considerably longer. As a courtesy Bulletproof offers delivery estimates to our customers which take into consideration manufacturer availability and shipping schedule. These estimates represent our best guess based on previous orders from the manufacturer and do not in any way imply a guaranteed delivery window. Many manufacturers work in a “just in time” inventory system and often take 2-20+ weeks to produce an item once an order is submitted. All deliverable items are then sent to our Japanese warehouse. Bulletproof ships a minimum of one full ocean freight container every month from Japan, oftentimes more than one a month. Ocean freight takes an average of 4 weeks. Typically it breaks down to one week in Japan for paperwork and customs, two weeks by boat and one week in US customs/clearance. Due to the wide number of variables between manufacturer and shipping schedules, delivery estimates are simply just that – estimates. We attempt to estimate conservatively and we usually deliver faster than our estimates suggest. It is not Bulletproof’s policy to guarantee delivery time of any special order item, this is impossible for us to do. By ordering you acknowledge that there is no required delivery ETA and an order may not be canceled or altered due to manufacturing or shipping delays, all ETA’s are provided as a best guess only. Please review the full Terms & Conditions here.

BP Pricing Difference

We do pricing a little differently on our JDM brands and we believe in making things simple and clear. No hidden fees or surcharges. Every price you see includes the shipping cost to our office in Los Angeles, California and all the associated taxes/duties/fees for bringing the products into the US. The only shipping you ever pay is from our facility in the US to your location. Be wary of resellers that don’t include the cost of international shipping in their pricing on JDM parts. While we believe we’ll always have the lowest all-in price on JDM products, we offer a price match guarantee for all authentic parts purchased from authorized dealers as well. For many international customers, it’s much more affordable to ship from the USA than from Japan directly, as the air freight and ocean freight costs are typically much less. However, for customers looking to ship directly from Japan outside of North America, or domestically in Japan, we can provide pricing specifically for that scenario. Please do not hesitate to contact us with any pricing questions or concerns. Please email us at sales@bulletproofautomotive.com with any inquiries.
