This version features our titanium inlet pipe finished in a Black Thermal Coated treatment, combining the lightweight strength and precision fitment of titanium with advanced thermal management.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe OEM turbo inlet path is limited in both diameter and geometry, creating a bottleneck as airflow approaches the turbocharger. Our solution replaces that section with a larger diameter, smooth-transition titanium inlet designed to promote consistent airflow into the compressor. The result is improved efficiency and increased performance potential across the powerband.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis Black Thermal Coated version utilizes Techline’s Polyphen Thermal Dispersant coating. This coating is engineered to rapidly disperse heat away from the inlet pipe surface, helping reduce localized heat soak while distributing heat more evenly. By managing temperatures more effectively in a high-heat engine bay, the system supports cooler intake conditions and improved consistency during aggressive driving.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLightweight titanium construction, larger internal diameter than the OEM inlet path\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlack thermal-coated finish (Techline Polyphen thermal dispersant) sheds heat and reduces heat soak in the intake tract\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSmooth transitions for improved airflow into the turbo\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStrong heat, chemical, and corrosion resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e80mm OD, cast aluminum inlet flange\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e(1) Cast Aluminum Inlet Piece\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e(1) 80mm OD Titanium Inlet Pipe (Black Thermal Coated)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e(2) High-Temp 4-Ply Silicone Couplers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e(6) 304 Stainless Steel Interlocking Worm Clamps\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFitment\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2017–2021 Honda Civic Type-R (FK8)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2016–2021 Honda Civic (10th Gen, 1.5T \u0026amp; 2.0L)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNo ECU calibration required\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOnly compatible with the PRL High Volume Intake (use the supplied injection-molded EVAP purge fitting)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n","brand":"PRL Motorsports","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54016173769011,"sku":"PRL PRL.1096.1.TI-TH","price":599.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0038\/1563\/7107\/files\/2017-2021-honda-civic-type-r-fk8-titanium-turbocharger-inlet-pipe-kit-black-thermal-coated-741514.jpg?v=1788560702","url":"https:\/\/www.impulse-performance.com\/products\/2017-2021-honda-civic-type-r-fk8-titanium-turbocharger-inlet-pipe-kit-black-thermal-coated","provider":"Impulse Performance","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
