Megan Racing Intercooler for 2016-2020 Honda Civic Turbo 1.5L (MR-IC-HC16T)

Product Description

As air gets compressed above it's natural state, there is a significant rise in temperature as more air molecules occupy given volume increasing it's density. This is a common occurrence with forced induction applications and a huge issue to car manufacturers and car tuners alike. Hotter charged air is not only less dense than cooler air, making less power. Hotter air also increases the chances of the engine pre-igniting or "detonating" as it is closer to flash-point. Not to mention turbo-chargers use exhaust gasses making the charge air even hotter. Intercoolers are fitted between the compressor and engine in order to cool the charge gasses passing through leading to cooler, more dense intake air resulting in higher power gains and yielding safer engine operations. Our High Capacity Intercooler for the 16+ Civic Turbos have a significant size advantage over factory yielding better heat exchanging properties especially for tuning and track applications. Comprised of aluminum and designed as a direct bolt-on application for ease of install, the drawbacks from this upgrade are little to none. And like all Megan Racing products, they are protected with a 1-year warranty against manufacturer defects.

Product Brand Information

Megan Racing was founded on the belief that the goal of the automotive enthusiast should not be limited by the size of one’s wallet, but rather on their heart and passion for motor-sports. As a young automotive enthusiast, Calvin (CEO) spent all his income on rent and special modifications towards his prized 1988 Toyota Celica All-Trac Turbo. Building it from the ground up, he initially purchased performance parts from local wholesale businesses and resold them to local shops and their consumers. Having to patiently sift through a wide array of international sources who offered parts at competitive prices and great quality, he faced the challenge of finding one that shared mutual manufacturing goals. This eventually led Calvin to building his very own R&D factory here in California. Focusing on company growth, he eventually formed a team to help him run the business and build up the brand even further to better serve customers. Megan Racing really prides itself in keeping the community involved in every aspect of development. Through loyal participation in attending race events, the team supports and collaborates with active members of the racing community who, in turn, offers direct invaluable feedback after real world and on-track testing. Furthermore, each product is vigorously tested inside in-house facilities and controlled variable scenarios.
