PRL Motorsports Short Ram Intake System (PRL-HC10-INT-SRI-A)

If you're an owner of a 2016-2021 Honda Civic Non-Si with the 1.5L Turbo engine, the PRL Motorsports Short Ram Intake System is a fantastic upgrade that balances performance and drivability. This intake system is designed for those who prefer a simpler setup compared to a Cold Air Intake (CAI), while still delivering impressive results.

Key Features

• CNC Machined Billet Aluminum MAF Housing: Engineered to maintain factory-spec fuel trims, ensuring optimal drivability with a minimal -4% deviation from factory Short Term Fuel Trim (STFT) and Long Term Fuel Trim (LTFT).
• 4" Air Filter: The intake utilizes a high-flow 4" air filter that enhances airflow, contributing to better engine performance.
• Dual MAF Housing Options: Choose between Standard Bore and Big Bore MAF housings. The Standard Bore provides factory-like performance without tuning, while the Big Bore increases airflow by 50%, necessitating a tune for maximum gains.

Performance Gains

• Up to 15 horsepower and 12 ft/lb torque increase with the Standard Bore MAF housing, no tuning required.
• Experience gains of 20 horsepower and 15 ft/lb torque with the Big Bore MAF housing when paired with a Big Bore MAF basemap calibration on Hondata or KTuner.
• Custom tuning can yield even larger gains, especially at higher power levels.

Fitment

• Compatible with Honda Civic Non-Si 1.5L Turbo models from 2016 to 2021.
• Fits various transmission types including 6MT, CVT, and RHD models.

Important Notes

• Short Ram Intakes can be sensitive to heat-soak in this chassis. For optimal performance, consider the Cold Air Intake option if you frequently drive in hot conditions.
• No ECU calibration is required for the Standard Bore MAF housing, making installation straightforward.
• For those looking to switch between MAF housings, a MAF Housing Conversion Kit is available, ensuring you can upgrade your setup without purchasing a whole new intake system.
• For those interested in converting to a Cold Air Intake, a Cold Air Intake Conversion Kit is also offered.
