PRL Motorsports Intercooler Charge Pipe Upgrade Kit for FK8 Honda Civic Type R

PRL Motorsports Intercooler Charge Pipe Upgrade Kit for FK8 Honda Civic Type R

PRL’s enhanced charge pipe kit features a cold-side pipe with a larger diameter, ensuring smoother and more substantial airflow. Additionally, it maintains the original factory diameter for the hot-side outlet, boosting the turbocharger’s spooling efficiency.

4-Ply Silicone Couplers

• Heat-Soak Reduction: Compared to steel or aluminum, silicone hoses have a notably lower thermal heat transfer, making them more efficient in reducing heat soak
• Strength & Rigidity: Factory rubber hoses tend to expand, especially under increased boost, and lose durability over time, increasing the risk of boost leaks. There have been instances where standard rubber hoses melted under extreme conditions during track tests with a shop car. The 4-ply, high-temperature silicone hose in this kit is far superior in handling the intense heat from turbochargers than original rubber hoses.
• Smooth Airflow: The custom-molded silicone design allows for bends that achieve significantly higher flow rates than metal tubing
• Optimal Fitment: Factory rubber hoses often do not provide the best fit, particularly when used with aftermarket radiators. Silicone hoses in this kit, however, are designed for superior fitment, outperforming the factory standard.
