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

The all-aluminum, bar-and-plate construction of this Mishimoto intercooler is specifically designed to handle the heat generated from compressing air. This upgraded intercooler for your 2016-2021 Honda Civic 1.5T or Si is a significant improvement over the stock unit, which uses a less efficient tube-and-fin design with plastic end tanks that can struggle with high temperatures. Mishimoto has increased the intercooler's volume by 102-percent and its fin surface area by 97-percent. This means it can drop outlet air temperatures by about 20 F compared to stock, and potentially up to 42 F when paired with a performance tune.

But the improvements don't stop at the core. This kit also replaces the stock plastic and rubber intercooler piping with mandrel-bent aluminum pipes and 5-layer silicone couplers. The hot and cold-side piping is enlarged from 42mm to 55mm, a 30-percent increase in size, and the bends are reduced to allow for a more direct flow of charged air. On a stock tune, this kit can add up to 4 horsepower and 8 ft-lbs of torque, with even more potential gains when you add a performance tune.

This kit is designed as a direct fit for your 2016-2021 Honda Civic 1.5T or 2017+ Civic Si, making installation more straightforward. It's a solid option for anyone looking to manage heat effectively and unlock more performance from their turbocharged Civic.
