Mishimoto MMINT-CTR-23KSLBK Performance Intercooler Kit Silver Core with Black Pipes

The Mishimoto MMINT-CTR-23KSLBK Performance Intercooler Kit is a complete, direct bolt-on forced induction upgrade engineered specifically for the 2023+ Honda Civic Type R (FL5 platform) and its turbocharged K20C1 engine. Built to eliminate heat soak and extract consistent power under demanding street and track conditions, this kit replaces the entire factory intercooling system with higher-flowing, thermally superior components. The silver intercooler core is paired with satin black powder-coated aluminum pipes for a clean, aggressive engine bay appearance.

Key Features:

• 146% Larger Core Volume — Dramatically increased core size over the stock intercooler for superior heat rejection and reduced intake air temperatures
• 135% More Fin Surface Area — Greater fin coverage maximizes heat transfer efficiency across the core
• Up to 57°F Intake Temperature Reduction — Proven dyno-tested reduction in outlet air temperatures compared to the factory intercooler
• Up to 10 HP and 9 lb-ft Torque Gains — Dyno-verified peak power improvements on the K20C1 engine
• Cast Aluminum End Tanks — Optimized internal flow paths reduce pressure drop and eliminate airflow bottlenecks
• Mandrel-Bent Aluminum Piping — Smooth-radius bends minimize restriction and improve throttle response throughout the system
• Supports Builds Up to 600 HP — Designed to accommodate significant power upgrades beyond stock output
• Direct Bolt-On Fitment — Uses factory mounting points and OEM-style connections; no cutting or permanent modifications required
• Includes All Hardware — Complete kit with intercooler, pipes, couplers, mounting brackets, intercooler ducting, mounting hardware, and trim removal tool
• Mishimoto Lifetime Warranty — Backed by Mishimoto's industry-leading lifetime warranty for long-term peace of mind

Installation is straightforward using basic hand tools, with the kit working seamlessly alongside stock ducting and most aftermarket intake systems. The silver bar-and-plate core with black pipe combination delivers both functional performance gains and a polished, purposeful look under the hood.
