PRL Motorsports | Carbon Fiber Inlet Pipe Kit – 2016–2021 Honda Civic 1.5T FK7

Overview
Designed for drivers who demand efficiency, precision, and performance, PRL Motorsports' Carbon Fiber Turbocharger Inlet Pipe Kit is the ultimate upgrade for your L15B7-powered Civic. This high-flow kit reduces airflow restriction before the turbocharger and helps your turbo operate more efficiently without needing a tune.
This system was engineered to work with the factory turbo, not around it. The combination of cast and carbon construction prevents heat soak while increasing efficiency. Users can expect improved throttle response and better overall turbo performance across the RPM range, all without throwing off MAF readings or requiring tuning.
By combining a thin-wall carbon fiber crossover pipe with a cast aluminum inlet transition, this system maintains optimal velocity while significantly increasing volume. It’s the perfect balance between airflow and control, tailored specifically to Honda’s 1.5L displacement.
Key Features:
Increases airflow volume while maintaining air velocity
Reduces pre-turbo restriction to allow more efficient turbocharger operation
