Product Description

The Injen FM1582I Front Mount Intercooler is a performance-focused upgrade engineered specifically for the 2017-2021 Honda Civic Type R (FK8) equipped with the L4-2.0L Turbo engine. Designed as a direct-bolt-on replacement for the restrictive factory intercooler, this bar-and-plate intercooler provides approximately 25 % more core volume and significantly improved thermal efficiency. By lowering intake charge temperatures by about 30 °F and maintaining factory boost pressure across the core, it delivers dyno-proven gains of up to ~27 hp and ~23 lb-ft torque while enhancing throttle response and reducing turbo lag.

Constructed with precision TIG-welded aluminum and CAD-designed end tanks, the FM1582I ensures smooth airflow and reliable performance. It uses all factory mounting locations and installs with stock intercooler piping in roughly an hour, making it an ideal upgrade for both stock and lightly modified Type R vehicles. Note that this part is not CARB exempt and therefore not legal for sale or use in California and other CARB-regulated states. A limited lifetime warranty from Injen Technology backs the intercooler's craftsmanship and durability.
