Description
The Mishimoto Performance Intercooler Kit, part number MMINT-CIV-22KSLWRD, is a Forced Induction upgrade engineered specifically for the 1.5-liter turbocharged L15B7/L15CA engine found in the FE1-chassis platform. Built around a bar-and-plate core, cast aluminum end tanks, and high-flow aluminum piping, this complete kit is designed to deliver gains of up to 8.1 horsepower and 8.1 lb-ft of torque over the stock intercooler setup, all while dropping average outlet temperatures by 18.1°F compared to factory.
As a dedicated performance induction system, this kit replaces the restrictive factory intercooler and piping with hardware that increases hot-side flow area by 103% and cold-side flow area by 75%, alongside a 146% increase in core volume versus the OEM unit. The result is a forced induction system built to reduce heat soak and maintain consistent power delivery, whether you’re daily driving or lapping a track. Removing the OEM resonator also sharpens induction sound under boost, while a pre-drilled 1/8-inch NPT sensor port on the cold-side pipe lets you add auxiliary sensors or gauges as your build evolves. The kit is rated to support builds up to 572 horsepower, giving Civic, Integra, and CR-V owners room to grow their forced induction turbo setups over time.
Vehicle Applications
This intercooler kit is a specific-fit part engineered for the 2022–2024 Honda Civic EX, EX-L, Sport Touring, and Touring, the 2022–2026 Honda Civic Si, and the 2023–2026 Acura Integra A-Spec and Base. It also fits the 2023–2026 Honda CR-V EX, EX-L, and LX. All of these applications share the L15B7/L15CA 1.5-liter turbocharged engine on the FE1 chassis platform.
