MOOSUN Universal 3" Inch Aluminum Intercooler Piping U-Pipe Kit with Coupler Black and T-Clamps

Product Information

Keep the charged air temperatures down in your turbocharged Civic with the 2016+ Honda Civic Performance Intercooler from Mishimoto! In the age of the turbocharger, Honda has finally joined the ranks of forced induction by equipping their tenth generation of the Civic with the L15B7. Where the Earth Dreams technology might be advanced, it still suffers from an age-old enemy - heat. We started with the size of the pipes. We added 13 mm overall to both sides of the piping system, bumping the diameters from 42 mm to 55 mm, equating in a 30% increase in size. We also took the liberty of reducing the angles of the bends in the piping, giving the charged air a more direct flow through the intercooling system. Intercoolers are a device that is mounted onto turbocharged vehicles for cooling down the compressed air that is being fed to the engine. Intercoolers serve a significant role as without this continuous flow of cool air, the engine would overheat and become inefficient and at risk of being damaged. Engine tuning/remaps can put other parts under stress. With these remap calculators you can get an idea of the weak links on your engine. The fuel economy calculator can give you an idea of what happened to your fuel economy pre and post remap.

As the air that enters the intercooler comes directly from the turbocharger, it does mean that if you’ve ever had any issues with the turbo then the intercooler is likely to be affected too. There will not be a supply of air in the optimal pressure, which will affect the engine’s air-fuel proportion. This might either lead to your engine running rich or lean. The most common effect is an underperforming intercooler, resulting in increased inlet air temperatures, but in the worst cases the intercooler can puncture and you can end up with a boost leak.Is your air filter big enough for the power your engine is making? This calculator will give you a ball park figure of the ideal filter size. Calculate the horsepower of your engine without a dyno/rolling road. Use a video camera to time the acceleration of the car. Plug the times into this calculator to get power and torque at different RPMs Air Filter Size Calculator

These tuning/remap calculators are not designed to be a substitute for the recommendation of the professionals working on your car. Custom Remaps Enter the distance you traveled, the price of the fuel per litre/gallon and the cost of the fill up and the calculator spits out your fuel economy. For example your engine makes peak torque at 2000 rpm. With this calculator you can enter this peak torque number at a higher RPM to see how much extra power you can get from your engine, if you can move peak torque higher in the RPM range.

Frequently Asked Questions

Also, many specialists now offer various ‘stages’ of upgraded intercooler for the same model, depending on the level of tune. There may be no need to go to the expense of a huge core and big-bore pipework for a mildly tuned application. However, for highly-tuned cars it may be essential for the engine’s health. What causes factory intercoolers to fail? There are cases when it could just be a small leak from the core, which will not affect your vehicle’s functionality. You just have to be bothered about oil in the intercooler causing smoke during the first cranking.
