PRL Motorsports Tube and Fin Intercooler Upgrade - Honda Civic Type R (FL5)
PRL Motorsports builds its cooling hardware around real track data, and this Tube and Fin Intercooler is designed specifically to shed heat faster and shave weight off the front end of the Honda Civic Type R (FL5). It's built for drivers chasing consistent thermal performance across long track sessions, not just a one-off dyno pull.
This listing covers the 2023-2025 Honda Civic Type R (FL5) and is available in Billet Aluminium or Black thermal dispersant coated finishes, selectable via the variant options on this listing page. The black coating adds extra corrosion resistance and helps spread heat more evenly across the core surface during sustained driving.
Specifications
- Core dimensions: 184 mm x 108 mm x 716 mm (7.25 in x 4.25 in x 28.2 in)

- Thin-wall tube and fin core for faster heat transfer at high airflow speeds
