Key Features:
- Compatibility: Suitable for all variant models including 10AT, 6MT, RHD, international models, etc.
- No ECU Calibration Required: Simplifies the installation process.
- Torque Spec: Intercooler torque spec is 18 ft/lb.

Technical Notes: Honda’s newer turbo platforms are known for being extremely susceptible to heat-soak, particularly when using the factory intercooler. Excessive heat-soak increases the risk of detonation and leads to significant power loss due to high charge air and cylinder temperatures. These issues are exacerbated during spirited driving and with increased power outputs.
The PRL Motorsports intercooler upgrade addresses these problems by decreasing charge air temperatures and increasing potential airflow. The dense 25.5 x 3.0 x 9.75" bar-and-plate core is rated for 550+ horsepower and increases internal flow by 83%, allowing for optimal cooling and airflow. This intercooler uses factory mounting spots, cast aluminum end tanks, and all factory air ducts/shrouds, requiring no cutting, fitting, or trimming. The kit includes all necessary hardware for a seamless installation.
Performance Gains:
- Mid-Range & Top-End Power Gains: Experience noticeable improvements in power delivery.
- Drop in Post Charge Air Temperature: Significant reduction in temperatures at peak performance.
- Increased Efficiency & Consistency: Enhanced power delivery consistency.
- Increased Engine Safety: Lower risk of detonation and overheating.
