Product Description
Mishimoto's Race Intake System is the ultimate air intake upgrade and includes our aluminium turbocharger inlet tube, oversized MAF housing, precision-designed airbox, and a high-flow serviceable air filter.
Our inlet tube is constructed with a robust CNC-machined cast-aluminium turbo compressor inlet connection flange. This mating surface is designed to OEM specifications, providing a perfect bolt-on fit. The upper portion of the tube is fabricated from mandrel-bent aluminium piping, which is professionally TIG welded to the cast lower. The inlet tube mates to our 4" rotational-molded MAF housing via a durable 4-ply silicone coupler. This MAF housing includes mounting flanges for the MAF sensor as well as the EVAP hose flange.
The most significant component for this complete intake system is our precision rotational-molded airbox. By using high-strength cross-linked polyethylene, we were able to develop an extremely efficient design providing fantastic airflow and resistance to engine bay heat-soak. Rounding out the airflow path is our high-flow oiled air filter, providing massive air entry surface area and filtration.
Using the latest in 3D printing, CAD modeling, and flow bench technology, we created an optimal airflow pathway from the turbocharger to the intake airbox, resulting in a measured 33.7% improvement in intake airflow.
We offer the option of either a red or black powder-coated finish, providing an excellent aesthetic upgrade for your engine bay. As with all our products, this Race Intake Kit for the 2017+ Honda Civic Type R includes our signature Mishimoto Lifetime Warranty.

Note:
It's old news that the FK8 Honda Civic Type R is a record-setting speed machine. Now that the years have passed, plenty of drivers are looking for ways to take the Civic's record-setting run even further, and we're ready to deliver the solution.
There's no shortage of speed when it comes to the Civic Type R, but we wanted to unlock even more gumption from the K20C1 with our race intake kit. Before we dig into our performance testing results, though, let's just take a minute to admire Ye's hard work:
The FK8 Civic Type R is bred for the track. Sure, you see these auspiciously styled Civics roaming the streets and highways, but you don't set front-wheel-drive lap records at the Nurburgring being developed for comfort. If the performance brakes and tires, styling, and big shot K20C1 weren't already enough, enthusiasts are still demanding more from their CTRs. A demand that we're here to fulfill.
In our last post, we covered our plans for the new race intake, but no design is complete without a round of prototyping here at Mishimoto. While the 3D modeling process gives us precision designs, we still need to double-check the fitment in the vehicle.
The
The Honda Civic is a mod machine. To some, they might be the butt of a joke, but for many, these little compact cars hold a treasure trove of modification and tuning potential. Even though the FK8 comes from the factory as a track devouring top performer complete with the towering wing, monstrous brakes, and sport bucket seats, it's no exception to this trend. The heavy-hitting K20C1 under the hood and handling that almost defies physics only add to the to-do list for these civic owners. The drivers want more, and we're here to deliver.
Given the Civic Type R's potential both on the road and the track, big turbos and custom tunes are becoming the norm for enhancing performance. However, the joy of big boost hits a wall due to the restrictive MAF (mass airflow) sensor housing.
