Excessive heat-soak increases the risk of detonation and causes major power-loss due to high charge air and cylinder temperatures. These issues become even more prevalent with spirited driving and\/or increased power outputs. The PRL Motorsports intercooler upgrade decreases charge air temperatures while increasing potential airflow with its dense 550+ horsepower rated (though we have pushed 600+) 25.5x4x6.3” bar-and-plate bar-and-plate core and machined billet aluminum end tanks! This intercooler utilizes factory mounting spots with our embossed end tanks. Kits will come with all hardware needed for a seamless install.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003ePerformance Gains:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e9 horsepower \u0026amp; 3 ft\/lb torque gains by simply bolting on\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e50+ F degree drop in post charge air temperature at peak\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eAverage of 36 F degree drop in post charge air temperature\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eIncreased efficiency \u0026amp; consistency in power delivery\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eIncreased engine safety\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eKit Includes:\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e(1) Intercooler Assembly w\/ Billet End Tanks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e(2) Air Guides w\/ Stainless Hardware\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e(2) Billet Aluminum Factory Charge Pipe Adapters\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e(1) Cardboard Stencil w\/ “PRL” Logo\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e(2) PRL Factory Style Replacement O-Rings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: medium;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eData:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/prlmotorsports.com\/blogs\/news\/prl-motorsports-1-5t-fmic-kit-development\" title=\"PRL Motorsports 1.5T FMIC Kit Development - V1\"\u003eTESTING DATA BLOG POST\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/prlmotorsports.com\/blogs\/news\/prl-motorsports-1-5t-civic-billet-intercooler-upgrade\" title=\"PRL Motorsports 1.5T Civic Billet Intercooler Upgrade!\"\u003eDESIGN BLOG POST\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/prlmotorsports.com\/blogs\/news\/intercooler-fin-design\" title=\"PRL Motorsports Intercooler Fin \u0026amp; Core Design\"\u003eINTERCOOLER CORE DESIGN BLOG POST\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEngineering the Future\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWith years of dedication and countless hours of development, PRL Motorsports has grown from a small team of three enthusiasts to a thriving company with over 25 highly skilled professionals.
