Eventuri Carbon Charge Pipe V3 for FK8 Honda Civic Type R

The Eventuri Carbon Charge Pipe V3 for the FK8 Honda Civic Type R is engineered to increase volume, improve flow quality, and reduce heat transfer to the intake charge for more efficient turbo operation. Built around a significantly larger internal diameter than the factory tube, the design starts at 78mm and expands to 88mm through the main section, delivering a 96% increase in cross-sectional area over the OEM inlet and creating a less restrictive path to the turbo. That added internal volume helps the turbo spool to peak boost faster and maintain boost with less turbine loading, while the smooth internal surface of high-temperature prepreg carbon fiber and the refined elbow curvature work together to minimize turbulence. To further protect performance consistency, the V3 layout incorporates thermal isolation at the turbo connection to limit heat conduction into the airflow, with carbon fiber’s naturally low through-thickness thermal conductivity helping keep intake temperatures in check under sustained load.

Volume

• Eventuri designed the turbo inlet with a 78mm internal diameter at the intake end, expanding to 88mm, compared to the stock 63mm. Beginning at the connection to the intake system, the MAF tube diameter is matched and then increased to 88mm through the main section of the tube, delivering a 96% increase in cross-sectional area over the OEM tube. With the substantially larger internal diameter, the Eventuri tube also provides a much greater internal volume, reducing restriction in the flow path to the turbo. This helps the turbo operate more efficiently, reach peak boost sooner, and maintain peak boost with reduced turbine loading.

Flow Quality

• A larger internal volume only matters if the airflow remains smooth on its way to the turbo. By using high-temperature prepreg carbon fiber, Eventuri achieves a smooth internal surface, unlike the stock cast-aluminum inlet tube which typically has a rougher internal finish. Combined with the elbow’s smooth curvature, this creates a flow path designed to minimize turbulence.

Temperature

• Another key objective was reducing heat transfer into the intake airflow. Since the stock inlet is directly connected to the turbo, it quickly conducts heat as the turbo spools. Eventuri uses a machined flange to connect to the turbo, followed by a silicone coupler with an integrated thermal spacer, preventing direct contact between the carbon elbow and the turbo. This barrier, along with carbon fiber’s low through-thickness thermal conductivity, reduces heat transferred into the airflow.

Carbon Fiber Charge Pipe

• Constructed from prepreg carbon fiber, the turbo tube features a one-piece design to maintain a smooth flow path to the turbo. It begins with a 78mm internal diameter to match the MAF tube section, holds that size for most of its length, and then smoothly tapers down to the stock turbo inlet. By comparison, the OEM turbo tube has a 63mm internal diameter, making the Eventuri tube over 53% larger in cross-sectional area. The carbon construction also reduces weight and lowers heat transfer through the tube wall versus the stock cast-aluminum design.

Custom Silicon Hoses

• Eventuri’s silicone joiner hoses are engineered for precise fitment and smooth internal airflow. The primary silicone hose on the inlet side includes an internal step that mates against the turbo tube, reducing the chance of turbulence caused by an exposed tube wall thickness. At the turbo connection, the coupler incorporates a silicone spacer ring that separates the carbon tube from the metal turbo flange, acting as a thermal barrier to reduce heat conduction from the hot flange into the carbon tube.

CNC Machined Turbo Flange

• CNC machined from aircraft-grade aluminum and anodized, the flange is designed to provide precise fitment and a reliable seal against the stock turbo.

Notes

• This item is not eligible for return
• The Carbon Turbo Tube will only fit with the FK8 intake which has the updated V2 MAF tube. The V2 MAF tube retains the MAF section diameter all the way through and matches Turbo Tube. The MAF sensor also sits outside the airbox on the V2 MAF Tube. Originally the MAF tube reduced in diameter and the sensor was located inside the airbox as can be seen below. Eventuri has put together 2 packages depending on which MAF tube your Eventuri intake has. Owners who have the older V1 MAF tube will need to buy option 2 otherwise the turbo tube will NOT fit.

About Eventuri

Eventuri was founded by a team of engineers and enthusiasts with a background in Aeronautics and tuning – all sharing a passion for cars and performance. After owning various intakes over many years for their own cars and being disappointed with the gains which seldom lived up to their claims – they decided to take things into our own hands and rewrite the book. To set a new benchmark in intake design and technology, above all – to engineer systems which provide real gains and then to publish genuine figures. Their systems are extensively developed using cutting edge design, testing and prototyping methods. With a focus on performance, each design undergoes CFD analysis and is then validated at the prototype stage through volumetric airflow, intake temperature and extensive dynamometer testing. They strive to publish all the development information to illustrate the depths they go to in bringing an intake from concept to reality. Only the best materials are selected for each component – even down to the choice of fasteners and fixings in order to ensure that the quality of the end product is second to none. After many years of disappointment with the usual aftermarket intakes, they are proud to be raising the bar and creating intake systems which are setting a new standard and genuinely improve the performance of your vehicle.
