PRL Motorsports for Honda Civic Type R FK8

• PRL Motorsports - full brand collection
• PRL Motorsports for Honda Civic Type R FL5 (2023+)
• All brands stocked at Chicane Australia

Fitment on this collection is specific to the FK8 chassis code, fitted with the K20C1 2.0L turbocharged engine and the factory six-speed manual gearbox. All FK8 PRL parts are designed to fit right-hand drive international models without modification. Some items, such as the baffled coolant expansion tank, are listed as fitting both FK8 and FL5 chassis codes; the rear engine mount upgrade is listed for FK8 and FC Civic 1.5T. Always check the chassis code shown in the individual product title before ordering.

Key fitment identifiers

• Billet Intercooler: 26.5 x 3.5 x 7.25" bar-and-plate core, rated to 550+ horsepower, 85% more surface area and 83% more internal flow than the OEM intercooler. Uses factory mounting points and air ducts.
• High Volume Intake (HVI): rotomoulded HDPE airbox, 6" cone filter, billet two-piece MAF housing with velocity stack. Supplied with both Street MAF and Race MAF housings.
• Street MAF housing: no tune required, maintains factory fuel trims on the stock ECU map.
• Race MAF housing: largest MAF housing available for the platform, rated to 600+ horsepower with a 47% increase in airflow volume over the factory MAF. Requires a tune or recalibration - the ECU reads incorrect airflow values without one.
• Titanium Turbocharger Inlet Pipe: gasket-matched 64mm ID at the compressor inlet, opening to 80mm OD / 78mm ID through the titanium crossover, for over 50% more airflow than the factory inlet. Requires the PRL HVI intake - not compatible with the factory airbox.
• Charge Pipe Kit: larger diameter cold side with factory diameter hot-side outlet to aid spool, 4-ply silicone couplers. No tune required and compatible with factory-location intercoolers, including the OEM unit.
• Race Downpipe & Front Pipe: factory-location replacement that ties into stock or aftermarket catback exhausts. Intended for race and motorsport use only - confirm legality in your state before ordering.
• P700 Drop-In Turbocharger: supports over 600 horsepower, with a High Efficiency compressor wheel, tapered tip exducer, cutback blade design, High Efficiency turbine wheel and larger wastegate actuator bore.

Installation by a qualified professional workshop is recommended for all PRL Motorsports components. Intercoolers, charge pipes and intake systems use factory mounting points and ducting, so no cutting or trimming is required, but correct torque, coupler clamping and MAF housing selection are important for reliable operation.

Tuning requirements vary by part. The Street MAF housing, charge pipe kit and intercooler are designed to work with the stock ECU calibration. The Race MAF housing, race downpipe, front pipe and P700 turbocharger require a tune or recalibration through a solution such as Hondata FlashPro or KTuner. The P700 also calls for supporting modifications including the intercooler, HVI with Race MAF, titanium inlet pipe, charge pipes, downpipe, front pipe and fuel system upgrades such as injectors and pumps.

If you are running E85 or a blended fuel, the PRL WiFi Flex Fuel Ethanol Content Analyser Kit allows ethanol content to be monitored as part of a tuned setup.

Do PRL FK8 parts fit right-hand drive Australian cars?

Yes. PRL Motorsports FK8 parts are designed to fit right-hand drive international models without modification.

Which MAF housing should I choose with the HVI intake?

The Street MAF housing requires no tune and keeps factory fuel trims. The Race MAF housing is rated to 600+ horsepower but requires a tune or recalibration to read airflow correctly.

Does the titanium turbocharger inlet pipe work with the factory airbox?

No. The titanium inlet pipe is only compatible with the PRL High Volume Intake system; the factory airbox cannot be used with it.

Which PRL parts do not require a tune?

The billet intercooler, the charge pipe kit and the HVI intake fitted with the Street MAF housing are designed to work with the stock ECU calibration.
