If you’re looking to upgrade your Honda Civic Type R, let me tell you about the HPS High Temperature 4-ply Reinforced Silicone Intercooler Turbo Hose Kit (Part Number 57-1697). This isn’t just another aftermarket part; it’s a serious upgrade for anyone who wants to push their FK8 to the next level. Those stock rubber intercooler hoses? They can wear out faster than you'd think, especially under the heat and pressure of spirited driving or track days. That's where this kit comes in.

Crafted from premium silicone, this hose kit is built to handle the intense conditions that come with a turbocharged engine. We're talking about a max temperature rating of 350°F (177°C), so you know it’s tough. The four-ply construction means it’s not just durable; it’s designed for performance. You’ll notice the difference when you’re on the road or track, as it maintains efficiency without breaking a sweat.

Installation is a breeze, thanks to the included 100% Stainless Steel T-Bolt Clamps. No more wrestling with flimsy clamps that just don’t cut it. The HPS kit comes with all the right bends and curves, making it a perfect fit for your OEM hoses. Unlike those universal hoses you might find at your local auto parts store, this kit is designed specifically for the Civic Type R, so you can trust that it’ll fit like a glove.

Fitment:

• Honda Civic 2.0L Turbo FK8 (Type R) 2018-2020
• Honda Civic 2.0L Turbo FK8 (Type R, Type R Limited Edition) 2021

In short, if you want to ditch those aging rubber hoses and upgrade to something that can really handle the heat, this HPS silicone intercooler hose kit is the way to go. It’s reliable, efficient, and built for both daily driving and competition. Trust me, your Civic will thank you.
