Overview
Mishimoto Performance Intercooler Kit for 2017-2021 Honda Civic Type R (MMINT-CTR-17KBKWBK)
The 2017-2021 Honda Civic Type R is celebrated as one of the fastest front-wheel drive production cars globally, but even the best can have their challenges. One area that often underperforms is the intercooling system, especially during intense driving or hot weather. The stock intercooler struggles to keep up, affecting your CTR’s performance.
That’s where the Mishimoto Performance Intercooler Kit comes into play. Designed specifically for the Civic Type R, this kit significantly enhances your vehicle’s cooling capabilities. With a core size more than twice that of the stock intercooler, it features a robust 4.7-inch thick design that increases overall volume by 169% and boosts external fin surface area by 189%. This means optimal heat rejection and improved performance.
We’ve also upgraded the construction to a bar-and-plate design, ensuring better airflow and heat transfer. Say goodbye to plastic end tanks; our sleek cast aluminum end tanks effectively direct airflow, ensuring your charged air stays cool and efficient.
But that’s not all. The entire intercooling system has been revamped. The stock piping can restrict airflow and limit your K20C1 engine’s performance. Our kit includes a 2.5-inch mandrel-bent aluminum cold-side pipe and durable silicone hot-side piping, eliminating the risk of boost leaks and improving airflow.
