HKS intercooler and piping kit (Honda Civic 17-21 2.0 Type R FK8)
90% of the products in our store are in internal or external stock and we can often process your order quickly (varying from a few hours to a number of business days).
Naturally it is possible that a product has an (unexpected) longer delivery time.
Upon receipt of your order, we will always inform you about this and offer any available alternatives. So keep a close eye on your mailbox.
We deliberately provide stock information about our products afterwards, because many suppliers do not offer a ''stock link system'' and we do not want to show '' estimates '' in advance, like many other webshops do (which are often incorrect and give you wrong information in advance). We only want to give our customers actual information on the moment of processing the order so we don't mislead our customers.
If you need a product VERY quickly and you need to be sure that we have it in stock, please e-mail or call us or send a message via ''ask a question about this product'' below in the product description.
After extensive research, HKS noticed that the stock intercooler in the Civic Type-R was simply insufficient to handle the pressure generated by the K20C turbocharged engine. This was leading to engine intake temperatures rising to nearly 90°C.
The newly designed HKS Civic Type-R intercooler core is 100mm wide and has a capacity roughly 200% greater than the stock intercooler. This large core has shown an overwhelming increase in cooling performance.
They also saw that the stock intercooler piping layout had a sharp bend, so the intake air did not flow smoothly and lead to boost pressure loss. They've answered this by integrating a superior piping design to realize smooth air flow and reduce this loss.
Features
- Greatly increased coolant capacity
- Smoother piping on the ends to reduce pressure loss
- Overwhelming increase in cooling performance
13001-AH004 Intercooler kit includes 13002-AH001 piping kit.
Replacing the stock rubber intercooler inlet and outlet hoses with aluminium piping eliminates pipe expansion that can be associated with the stock factory piping, allowing greater boost levels to be run and improving throttle response. The factory rubber hoses are replaced with aluminium pipes and silicone hoses and secured with reinforced hose bands.
