This incredible upgrade kit is a perfect fit for all 2017 - 2022 Honda CR - V 1.5T models with the OEM Civic Inlet bracket PN: 17288 - 5K8 - 000. It works with all variant models such as Si, 6MT, CVT, RHD, and international models. It's also suitable for factory and factory - location replacement turbocharger upgrades. Pair it with the PRL Race MAF Housing and Intake Systems to achieve top - notch performance. Overview: This PRL Motorsports Titanium Turbocharger Inlet Pipe Kit for the L15B7 can maximize your 10th Gen Civic's engine intake system and turbocharger potential. It's a direct bolt - on upgrade that gets rid of intake airflow restriction before the turbocharger, making the turbocharger work more efficiently. The thin - wall titanium helps reduce heat - soak. Our design uses a cast aluminum inlet piece for a smooth transition from the 50mm ID compressor inlet to a 76.2mm OD / 74mm ID outlet through the titanium crossover pipe. The compressor outlet diameter is increased to 45mm from the factory's 38mm. It provides a significant increase in airflow volume compared to the factory inlet pipe while maintaining velocity. The multi - piece design makes installation easier and fitment better than a one - piece design. Important Notes: No ECU calibration is required. It's only compatible with the PRL Motorsports Cobra CAI System or Short Ram Intake System. Kit Includes: (1) Cast Aluminum Inlet Piece, (1) 76mm OD Titanium Inlet Pipe, (2) High - Temp 4 - Ply Silicone Couplers, (5) 304 Stainless Steel Interlocking Worm Clamps, (4) Vacuum Hoses, (1) Injection Molded Evap Purge Fitting, (2) Buna O - Rings, (1) Bolt, (1) Wiring Harness Tie - Down.
Using this turbocharger inlet pipe upgrade kit is quite straightforward. First, make sure your vehicle is a 2017 - 2022 Honda CR - V 1.5T with the right OEM Civic Inlet bracket. Since it's a direct bolt - on upgrade, you can install it easily following the normal installation process for similar parts. There's no need to calibrate the ECU, which saves you time and effort. But remember, it only works with the PRL Motorsports Cobra CAI System or Short Ram Intake System. For maintenance, regularly check the silicone couplers and O - rings for any signs of wear or damage. If you notice any cracks or leaks, replace them right away. Keep the pipes clean to ensure smooth airflow. And always check the tightness of the bolts and clamps to prevent any loose connections that could affect performance.
