Technical Notes:

It is well known that Honda's 1.5L Turbo Civic is highly susceptible to heat soak, especially while retaining the factory intercooler. Excessive heat absorption increases the risk of detonation and causes significant power loss due to high intake air and cylinder temperatures. These issues become even more prevalent with spirited driving or increased power output. The PRL Motorsports Intercooler Upgrade lowers intake air temperatures while increasing potential airflow thanks to its dense 550+ HP rated (we have pushed 600+ HP) 26x4.5x5.9 bar-and-plate core and machined billet aluminum end tanks! This intercooler utilizes factory mounting spots featuring embossed end tanks. The kit comes with all hardware necessary for a seamless installation.


Performance Gains:

  • Significant reduction in intake air temperature
    • Testing showed a reduction of up to 108 degrees (F) compared to the factory intercooler
  • Increased efficiency and consistent power delivery
    • Testing showed up to 40% improvement in cooling efficiency compared to the factory intercooler
    • Testing confirmed gains of up to 9 HP on a stock vehicle
  • Improved engine safety

Kit Contents:

  • (1) Intercooler assembly with billet end tanks
  • (2) Mounting brackets with stainless steel hardware
  • (2) Billet aluminum factory charge pipe adapters
  • (1) Cardboard stencil with "PRL" logo
  • (2) PRL factory-style replacement O-rings

    Before Ordering

    〇 About Import Consumption Tax
    At the Shaftoya shopping site, we pay the import consumption tax incurred at the time of import on your behalf, so there will be no additional charges other than the total amount paid at checkout.

    〇 Confirmation of Compatibility
    Our entire product database is based on North American vehicles (USDM). Please confirm compatibility with Japanese vehicles (JDM) before ordering. (If you are unsure whether a listed product is compatible with your vehicle, please feel free to contact us. Our support team will be happy to investigate for you.)
    If you order without confirming compatibility, we cannot accept returns due to incompatibility.
    Please note that even if items are sorted by year, make, and model using the tabs on our top page, this does not necessarily mean they will fit Japanese model vehicles without modification.
    All products have been translated into Japanese using translation software. As there may be confusing expressions, please contact us before ordering if you have any questions.

    ○ Regarding Shipping
    Shipping costs are paid at the time of checkout. Shipping estimates are automatically calculated when you enter your shipping address on the checkout page. For large items such as body parts, the actual shipping cost may occasionally differ significantly from the automated calculation. In such cases, we will contact you individually by email.

    All products are generally shipped internationally from our US warehouse. Unlike domestic Japanese shipping, international shipping takes about 7-14 days, so please allow sufficient time when ordering. If you are in a hurry, please contact us in advance to check the delivery time. Please note that all products are transported by air. They are not shipped by sea.

    ○ Regarding Japanese Vehicle Inspection (Shaken) Compatibility
    Basically, all products we handle are designed and manufactured outside of Japan. Please note that they do not conform to the "Japanese Vehicle Inspection System," and we cannot provide strength calculation documents or similar paperwork for the Japanese inspection system. Therefore, all parts are sold for use on "circuits, private property, or off-road," and installation and use are at your own risk.

    ○ Regarding Warranty
    Please check the contents immediately upon arrival. As all products are shipped internationally from outside Japan, there may be damage to packaging boxes or products during transit. Please understand that we will only provide returns, refunds, or replacement exchanges for items with shipping damage, defective products, or incorrect items if contacted within 7 days of receipt. Please note that for products sold through us, warranty support will be provided "only through us." We do not provide support through other companies or distributors located in Japan.
