The
all
new
Type-R
Civic
(FK8)
is
a
great
platform
for
soaking
up
highway
miles
during
the
weekday
and
tearing
it
up
at
the
track
on
the
weekend!
With
some
minor
modifications,
the
2.0L
Turbo
engine
is
capable
of
producing
some
gnarly
power.
But,
the
added
power
of
some
tuning
and
bolt-ons
will
push
the
limits
of
the
stock
charge
air
system,
necessitating
an
upgrade
for
the
stock
tube-and-fin
intercooler,
which
is
prone
to
heat
soak.
Thankfully
Injen
has
developed
a
highly
efficient
bar-and-plate
intercooler
engineered
specifically
to
fit
the
Type-R
Civic.
The
FM1582i
intercooler
is
a
direct-fit
unit
and
features
a
25%
increase
in
core
volume
while
requiring
no
modification
to
your
civic.
This
cooler
is
constructed
with
cast
end
tanks
and
precision
CNC-machined
aluminum
flanges
for
use
with
the
factory
intercooler
piping.
The
Injen
Honda
Civic
Type-R
intercooler
reduces
intake
temperatures
by
30
