XS-POWER HONDA CIVIC EG EK & ACURA INTEGRA FRONT MOUNT INTERCOOLER KIT
Upgrade your Honda or Acura turbocharger project with the XS-POWER Front Mount Intercooler Kit with 3-inch aluminum charge piping and 50mm black blow-off valve.
Designed for performance-oriented forced-induction applications, this FMIC package combines a bar-and-plate aluminum intercooler, upgraded 3-inch intercooler piping and an included 50mm XS-POWER TiAL-style blow-off valve to support custom turbocharged Honda Civic and Acura Integra builds.
The intercooler is designed to reduce compressed intake air temperatures by transferring heat from the turbocharger's charge air to ambient airflow. When properly matched to the turbocharger, engine and tuning, improved charge air cooling can help support consistent performance and increased power potential.
The kit is marketed for 1992-2000 Honda Civic EG/EK and Acura Integra turbo applications, particularly custom B-series and D-series forced-induction projects.
Because turbocharger location, intake manifold configuration, radiator placement and bumper clearance vary by build, installation requirements must be confirmed before ordering.
PREMIUM TURBO INTERCOOLER KIT FEATURES
Front Mount Intercooler
The included front mount intercooler features an aluminum core designed for turbocharged engine applications. Its substantial cooling surface helps transfer heat away from compressed intake air before it enters the engine.
Bar-and-plate construction is widely used in aftermarket charge air cooling systems where durability, cooling capacity and robust construction are important.
Upgraded 3-Inch Aluminum Intercooler Piping
The kit is advertised with 3-inch intercooler charge piping manufactured from high-quality T-6061 aluminum.
These upgraded pipes are intended for custom turbo charge air routing and aftermarket forced-induction installations.
Important: The intercooler itself has 2.5-inch inlet and outlet connections. The piping and intercooler port sizes are different; appropriate transitions must be confirmed for the complete installation.
50mm Black XS-POWER TiAL-Style Blow-Off Valve Included
This package includes a black 50mm XS-POWER TiAL-style blow-off valve designed to release pressurized charge air when the throttle closes.
The valve uses a diaphragm-operated design, dual-spring arrangement and CNC-machined billet aluminum body.
The included weld-on aluminum flange, V-band clamp, O-ring and associated installation components support integration into a suitable fabricated charge pipe.
Performance Charge Air Temperature Management
Compressed intake air leaving a turbocharger can reach elevated temperatures. A properly installed intercooler helps remove heat from that compressed air.
Lower charge air temperatures can help support increased air density, more consistent turbocharged engine performance and improved thermal management.
Actual horsepower gains depend on the engine, turbocharger, boost pressure, tuning, airflow and installation.
Custom Honda & Acura Turbo Build Compatibility
This kit is intended for modified Honda Civic and Acura Integra applications using an aftermarket turbocharger system. It is not a replacement for a factory naturally aspirated intake system.

FITMENT NOTICE: The application references above describe potential custom turbo builds. They do not guarantee direct bolt-on installation on every chassis or engine. Turbocharger position, intake manifold, bumper, radiator and charge piping configuration must be checked.
WHY UPGRADE YOUR HONDA TURBO INTERCOOLER SYSTEM?
Turbochargers compress air to increase the amount of oxygen available for combustion. This compression also increases intake air temperature.
A properly designed front mount intercooler uses ambient airflow to remove heat from the compressed intake charge.
Potential benefits of an appropriately sized and installed FMIC system include:
- Reduced turbocharger discharge air temperature before the intake manifold
- Improved charge air temperature management
- Support for consistent performance under repeated acceleration
- Additional cooling capability for modified turbocharged engines
- Integration with aftermarket aluminum charge piping
- Compatibility with a properly configured blow-off valve system
- Greater flexibility for custom turbo fabrication
Actual results vary with ambient temperature, boost pressure, turbocharger efficiency, airflow through the intercooler and engine tuning.
INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS & IMPORTANT FITMENT NOTES
Professional installation is strongly recommended. This product is intended for custom turbocharger systems and may require fabrication.
- Verify intercooler dimensions before ordering.
- Confirm bumper and radiator support clearance.
- Verify the turbocharger compressor outlet position.
- Confirm the intake manifold and throttle body connection size.
- Account for 3-inch charge piping and 2.5-inch intercooler ports.
- Use correctly sized transitions and silicone couplers where needed.
- Ensure secure intercooler mounting and charge pipe support.
- Install the BOV flange using appropriate welding procedures.
- Connect the blow-off valve to a suitable manifold pressure/vacuum reference.
