PRODUCT DETAILS
Honda Type R Turbocharger Stay Bracket - Genuine OEM (18905-RPY-G01)
Turbo stay bracket cracked, missing, or left off during a previous job on your Type R? Or are you putting an FK8 or FL5 turbo on your Accord 2.0T and need the right support hardware to finish it properly? Either way, this is the piece. It's the genuine Honda turbocharger stay bracket, part 18905-RPY-G01, the factory brace that holds your turbo steady so it doesn't beat up everything bolted around it. Small part, but it does a real job.
What This Bracket Actually Does
Here's why it matters more than it looks like it should. Your turbo is a heavy chunk of metal hanging off the exhaust side of the engine, and between engine torque, exhaust pulses, and road vibration, it wants to move around constantly. This stay bracket ties the turbo to a solid point and braces it, so all that movement gets controlled instead of getting passed into the parts around it. Leave it off or run a broken one, and that unchecked movement starts stressing your exhaust manifold, downpipe, and turbo mounting flange, which is how you end up chasing cracks and exhaust leaks down the road. Keeping the turbo properly supported is cheap insurance against fatigue failures that are a real pain to fix.
Genuine Honda, So It Fits And Braces Right
This is the real OEM Honda bracket, not a guess-and-hope aftermarket piece, so it bolts up in the factory locations and braces the turbo exactly the way Honda engineered it to. When the whole point of a part is to hold something rigid and in the right spot, you want the one that's actually designed for the job. Correct fit, correct support, no fabrication.
Doing The Accord 2.0T Turbo Swap?
If you're a CV Accord owner stepping your 2.0T up to the FK8 or FL5 turbo, you'll need this bracket to finish the job right. Swapping in the Type R turbo means you also need the Type R's support hardware to hold it properly, and this stay bracket is part of that. Don't skip it on the swap, without the right brace, that bigger turbo has nothing holding it steady, and you're right back to stressing your manifold and downpipe. Add it to your swap parts list and set the whole thing up the way it should be.
