PRL Motorsports Carbon Fiber Inlet Pipe Kit | Honda Civic Type R 2017-2021
Product Overview
The PRL Motorsports Carbon Fiber Inlet Pipe Kit is designed to optimize airflow for the 2017–2021 Honda Civic Type R (FK8). Featuring an 80mm OD carbon fiber crossover pipe and a cast aluminum transition inlet, this kit removes restrictions at the turbocharger inlet to improve overall system efficiency.
This inlet system focuses on reducing airflow limitation at the compressor inlet, delivering enhanced turbocharger responsiveness and increased low-end power. It functions as a direct bolt-on component when paired with PRL’s High Volume Intake System and requires no ECU calibration.
