2017-2021 Honda Civic Type-R FK8 Intercooler Charge Pipe Upgrade Kit
PRL Motorsports builds its charge pipe kits around real world track testing, not just dyno numbers. This kit replaces the factory rubber charge pipe hoses on the Honda Civic Type R with a larger diameter cast aluminium and silicone setup designed to reduce heat soak and eliminate boost leaks under sustained load.
This listing covers the Honda Civic Type R FK8, including RHD and international variants. The kit is a direct bolt on and works with the factory intercooler, though PRL notes their intercooler upgrade is recommended for optimal fitment and results.
Note: Minor trimming to the radiator or fan shroud may be required if running an aftermarket radiator. No ECU calibration is needed for installation.
