Light weight and superior cooling push your type R to the next level !
Official parts chosen for Honda Civic Type R TC (made by Honda Performance Development) for 2020 TC America Racing Series.
New release exclusively for Civic Type R FK 8!!
* The intake area is newly designed for more air capacity in order to provide more air inflow to the air cleaner.
* The heat from the high powered K20C engine and turbine is dissipated much more efficiently with the negative pressure generated from the two V shape ducts and the main duct.
The superior heat extraction function from the total area of more than 150 cm² of the ducts maximizes the engine performance by reducing the water, oil, and intake air temperatures. You can significantly reduce the power-down from the excessive heat and from the computer compensation for the high water temperature.
* The actual result from a test on the Suzuka International Race Track – Compared to the stock hood, our hood achieved the reduction of the water temperature 15C max and 10C on average. The hood also worked flawlessly at the over 220km/h (over 131 mph) without hood lock pins. Test data: boost level 1.8kgf/cm²/365ps, atmospheric temperature 30゜C (86゜F), no rain protect on the hood.
* Weight comparison – Stock 9.7kg, J’s Type V 6.8kg. The weight reduction also enhances the cornering performance
