Description
The HKS R Type Intercooler provides an application-specific charge-air cooling component. Application: Honda Civic Type R (FK8). This is the core-only configuration; a separate piping package must not be assumed.
Design and operation
An intercooler transfers heat from compressed intake air to the surrounding cooling air. Core dimensions, end-tank layout and airflow through the bumper all influence its operation; a larger core dimension alone is not a guaranteed horsepower gain.
