Mishimoto 2016+ Honda Civic 1.5T / 2017+ Honda Civic Si Black Intercooler Kit w/Red Pipes

If you're pushing your 2016-2021 Honda Civic 1.5T or Si harder, especially after adding a tune, you've probably noticed charged air temperatures creeping up. The stock intercooler, with its plastic end tanks and tube-and-fin design, can only handle so much heat before it starts to struggle. This Mishimoto intercooler kit is built to tackle that challenge head-on, keeping your engine running cooler and more efficiently.

This kit features a substantial all-aluminum, bar-and-plate intercooler core. It's significantly larger than stock, boasting a 102-percent increase in volume and a 97-percent increase in fin surface area. This design is much better at shedding heat generated from compressing intake air. Mishimoto's testing shows it can drop outlet air temperatures by up to 20 F over stock, and even more with a performance tune. The kit also replaces the stock plastic and rubber piping with smooth, mandrel-bent aluminum pipes and durable, 5-layer silicone couplers. The piping diameter is increased from 42mm to 55mm, a 30-percent improvement, and the bends are smoothed out to allow for a more direct flow of charged air. This improved airflow and cooling can lead to noticeable gains, even on a stock tune, with even more potential when you add a performance calibration.

This kit includes the black intercooler core and vibrant red aluminum piping, giving your engine bay a distinct look. Mishimoto has designed this kit for a direct fit, simplifying installation. While it offers up to 4 hp and 8 ft-lbs of torque on stock tuning, its real benefit comes from maintaining consistent power delivery under demanding conditions and unlocking further gains when paired with other performance modifications.
