PRL Motorsports | Carbon Fiber Inlet Pipe Kit – 2017–2021 Civic Type-R (FK8)
Overview
Engineered to push the performance of your FK8 to its peak, the PRL Motorsports Carbon Fiber Turbocharger Inlet Pipe Kit is a bolt-on mod that removes airflow restrictions at the turbocharger inlet, dramatically improving efficiency, throttle response, and turbo spool. With an 80mm OD carbon fiber crossover pipe and a cast aluminum transition inlet, this system is the largest available on the market, offering over 50% more airflow volume compared to stock.
This inlet kit is designed to reduce restriction right before the compressor inlet, the most critical point in the intake path. The result is a dramatic improvement in turbocharger performance, with increased bottom-end power and improved responsiveness across the RPM range.
This system is designed to pair exclusively with PRL’s High Volume Intake System and is compatible with all factory-fitment FK8 turbochargers. No tuning required, just precision fitment, reliable gains, and lightweight performance.
