This upgrade kit fits all 2018+ Accord 2.0T models, including 10AT, 6MT, RHD, and international variants. It doesn't require ECU calibration. The upgraded charge pipe kit uses smooth - flowing, larger inner diameter cold - side tubing (2.5' compared to the 1.5' factory size) for more airflow and a factory - diameter hot - side outlet to help the turbocharger spool up. We use 4 - ply silicone couplers for multiple benefits: reduced heat - soak as silicone has low thermal heat transfer; better strength and rigidity than factory rubber hoses, which can expand and cause boost leaks; smoother airflow with custom - molded bends; and optimal fitment, even better than the factory hoses, especially with aftermarket radiators. This kit also offers increased efficiency and consistency in power delivery. The kit includes: (1) Cold Side Charge Pipe with Machined Billet Aluminum Flange, (1) Lower Cold Side Charge Pipe with Methanol Injection Bung, (1) 1/8” NPT Pipe Plug (pre - installed in Methanol Injection Bung), (4) 4 - Ply Silicone Coupler, and (8) 304 Stainless Steel Worm Clamp.
Using this intercooler charge pipe upgrade kit is straightforward. First, make sure your vehicle is a 2018+ Honda Accord 2.0T as the kit is specifically designed for these models. You don't need to calibrate the ECU, so you can directly start the installation. Carefully replace the old parts with the components from the kit one by one, like the cold - side charge pipes and silicone couplers. When it comes to the methanol injection bung, the 1/8” NPT pipe plug is already pre - installed, so you don't have to worry about that. As for maintenance, regularly check the silicone couplers for any signs of wear or damage. Since silicone is good at handling high temperatures, it should last a long time, but keep an eye on it. Also, check the stainless - steel worm clamps to ensure they are tight and secure. If you notice any boost leaks or a decrease in performance, it's a good idea to inspect the entire kit to make sure everything is in place and functioning properly.
