This Mishimoto inlet opens it up: CNC-machined and mandrel-bent aluminum that flows 16.7% better on the bench, feeding the turbo more freely for better spool. One important thing to know up front, this is an upgrade for the Mishimoto Performance Intake, not a standalone part. It won't fit the stock airbox. Available in black or red.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eRead This First: Requires The Mishimoto Intake\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe most important thing on this page, because this won't work on a stock intake.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis inlet pipe is designed to pair with the \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.hybrid-racing.com\/products\/mishimoto-performance-air-intake-17-21-civic-type-r-fk8\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003eMishimoto Performance Intake\u003c\/a\u003e for the FK8. The included silicone coupler mates the intake's MAF housing to this larger inlet pipe, so it connects to the Mishimoto intake, not the factory airbox.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIt \u003cstrong\u003edoes not fit the OEM intake system\u003c\/strong\u003e. If you're still on your stock intake, you'll need the Mishimoto intake first, this is the next step after it, not a standalone bolt-on. If you already run the Mishimoto intake, this is the piece that opens up the last restriction between the airbox and the turbo.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003e16.7% Less Restriction To The Turbo\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe flow gain, and where it comes from.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe factory inlet pipe flows fine for a stock or lightly modified car, but its internal pathway isn't optimized for maximum airflow. Mishimoto used 3D printing, CAD modeling, and flow bench testing to design a better path from the airbox to the turbo, and the result is \u003cstrong\u003e16.7% less restrictive than the stock inlet\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eLess restriction right at the turbo's mouth means air reaches the compressor more freely, which helps spool and gives more consistent airflow through the rev range. On a car where you're chasing every airflow improvement, the inlet is one of the real restrictions worth clearing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eBuilt Right: Cast Flange, Mandrel-Bent Pipe\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe construction is proper, not a generic pipe.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe turbo compressor connection is a \u003cstrong\u003eCNC-machined cast-aluminum flange\u003c\/strong\u003e made to OEM specifications, so it bolts to the turbo with a perfect factory fit, no leaks, no fettling. The upper section is \u003cstrong\u003emandrel-bent aluminum\u003c\/strong\u003e, TIG-welded to the cast lower, which keeps a consistent diameter through the bends for clean flow.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe pipe is \u003cstrong\u003ebead-rolled\u003c\/strong\u003e where the coupler connects, which gives the silicone something to grip and ensures a leak-free seal under boost. It's the fit-and-finish detail that separates a part that seals reliably from one that creeps and leaks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eA Complete Kit\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eEverything to install it comes in the box.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAlong with the inlet pipe, the kit includes a \u003cstrong\u003e4-ply silicone coupler\u003c\/strong\u003e to mate it to the Mishimoto intake's MAF housing, a \u003cstrong\u003eCNC-machined EVAP hose adapter flange\u003c\/strong\u003e so your EVAP line connects cleanly, stainless-steel worm-gear clamps, and mounting hardware. Nothing else to source, it's a complete bolt-on for a car already running the Mishimoto intake.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eBlack Or Red\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eTwo micro-wrinkle powder-coat finishes, \u003cstrong\u003eblack (MMAI-CTR-17UBK)\u003c\/strong\u003e or \u003cstrong\u003ered (MMAI-CTR-17URD)\u003c\/strong\u003e, so the pipe either blends into the engine bay or contrasts against it. Both are the same part with the same performance, so it's purely how you want it to look. Since it's visible under the hood, it's a clean aesthetic upgrade either way, and it matches the look of the Mishimoto intake it pairs with.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eFitment\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e2017-2021 Honda Civic Type R (FK8, K20C1)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eRequires the \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.hybrid-racing.com\/products\/mishimoto-performance-air-intake-17-21-civic-type-r-fk8\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003eMishimoto Performance Intake\u003c\/a\u003e.
