The factory-replacement front-mount design increases the intercooler's core area by 22.4% compared with the OEM unit, providing greater charge-air cooling capacity for performance-oriented applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 695 x 178 x 100mm core uses a 10-fin, 9-tube configuration with cast-aluminum tanks. HKS designed the layout to work with the factory intercooler piping, making this part the core-only alternative to the complete HKS 13001-AH007 intercooler and piping kit. HKS testing reports an intercooler outlet temperature of 30.3°C at 7,000 rpm and 88% cooling efficiency under its specified test conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis part is supplied as the intercooler core with an HKS logo spray masking sheet. Installation requires modification of the air guide inside the bumper and relocation of the outside air temperature sensor, while no reinforcement modification is required. Verify the vehicle is an FL5 Civic Type R before installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cmeta name=\"description\" content=\"Upgrade your 2022-2026 Honda Civic Type R with the HKS R Type Intercooler Core.
