Product Overview: Precision Induction for the FL5 Type-R
"Unleash the full potential of your K20C1 engine with our High-Flow Cold Air Intake System, specifically precision-engineered for the 2022-2026 Honda Civic Type-R (FL5). While the factory induction system is designed for broad usability, it often restricts the breathing capacity needed for high-boost racing and performance driving. Our intake system replaces the factory air box with a high-volume flow path and an integrated thermal barrier, delivering a consistent stream of cooler, oxygen-rich air directly to the turbocharger. The result is instantaneous throttle response, significant gains in horsepower and torque, and the legendary induction roar that defines the Type-R pedigree."
Key Features:
Aerodynamic High-Flow Design: Utilizing a larger diameter, smooth-bore intake tube (available in High-Strength Dry Carbon Fiber or Lightweight Aluminum), our system minimizes air turbulence and maximizes volumetric efficiency, ensuring your turbocharger spools up faster and holds boost more effectively.
Integrated Thermal Heat Shield: Features a custom-fit, heavy-duty heat shield with a specialized powder-coated finish. This creates a robust barrier between the engine bay heat and the air filter, preventing 'heat soak' and maintaining consistent intake air temperatures (IATs) during grueling track sessions.
Premium Synthetic Air Filter: Equipped with a high-performance cone filter that provides superior filtration efficiency while offering a massive increase in surface area compared to stock. Our filter is washable and reusable, providing lifelong engine protection.
Acoustic Amplification: Acoustically tuned to amplify the aggressive turbo spool and blow-off valve (diverter valve) acoustics. It transforms the FL5's engine note into a crisp, race-inspired soundtrack that rewards every gear change.
Performance Highlights:
Direct Bolt-On Fitment: 100% precision-fit for the 2022-2026 FL5 chassis, utilizing OEM mounting points and sensor bungs for a seamless, professional installation.
Stage 1 & 2 Ready: The essential foundation for any ECU performance software upgrade.
Engine Bay Upgrade: Delivers a high-tech, technical aesthetic that significantly improves the appearance of the FL5's engine compartment.
