{"product_id":"bar-and-plate-intercooler-upgrade","title":"Bar and Plate Intercooler Upgrade","description":"The PRL Motorsports intercooler upgrade is designed to mitigate the susceptibility of the 1.5L turbo Civic to heat-soak, which can lead to increased detonation risks and power loss. Featuring a 25.5 x 4 x 6.3 inch bar-and-plate core paired with machined billet aluminum end tanks, this assembly enhances overall engine efficiency and promotes consistent power delivery under spirited driving conditions.\n\nInstallation utilizes factory mounting points, and the kit includes necessary hardware for a seamless fit. This upgrade is compatible with factory charge piping, though pairing it with the PRL Charge Pipe Upgrade kit is recommended for optimal performance. Note that the removal of the lower factory intake air box damper is recommended for the best fitment. If you are pairing this unit with V1 charge piping, please contact the manufacturer for specific compatibility guidance.\n\nThis intercooler is designed for 2016-2021 Honda Civic 1.5T models, including Si, CVT, 6MT, RHD, and international variants. Please be aware that there are two O-rings in the factory charge pipe system that may require replacement if they are torn, dry-rotted, deformed, or show signs of high mileage. No ECU calibration is required for operation. The unit is 50-state legal and CARB-approved (EO D-878).","brand":"PRL Motorsports","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52663343710520,"sku":"19710-5AA-A01","price":244.74,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0970\/4895\/3144\/files\/687528708.jpg?v=1784326122","url":"https:\/\/store.motormia.co\/products\/bar-and-plate-intercooler-upgrade","provider":"MOTORMIA","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
