2016-2021 Civic 1.5T Garrett Front Mount Intercooler (FMIC)

2016-2021 Civic 1.5T Garrett Front Mount Intercooler (FMIC) - 893516-6001

Garrett Powermax™ direct fit performance charge air cooler for the 2016+ Honda Civic 1.5T/SI has a 90% larger core than stock and helps reduce intake manifold temperatures up to 60 °F (15.6 °C) at heat soak. CFD optimized end tanks improve air flow distribution through the core. This performance intercooler showed a max increase of up to 17 WHP (12.7 kW) and 14 lb-ft of torque (19 N-m) compared to OE during back to back dyno comparisons in a wind tunnel which generates air velocity that matches vehicle speed.

This direct fit performance intercooler installs in 3 hours and reuses the stock bolts, hoses, and clamps. Some modification to the shroud required.

Intercooler Upgrade Features:
• Supports up to 660 HP (492 kW)
• 90% larger core than stock
• Installs in stock location
• Max increase of 17 HP (12.7 kW) and 14lb-ft (19 N-m)
• Up to 60 °F (15.6 °C) reduction in intake temp
• Cast aluminum end tanks

• Bar-and-plate construction

Performance Dyno Testing:
This performance intercooler showed a max increase of up to 17 WHP (12.7 kW) and 14 lb-ft of torque (19 N-m) compared to OE during back to back dyno comparisons in a wind tunnel which generates air velocity that matches vehicle speed.

Thermal Data:
• Ambient temperature: 75 F
• ~ 50 F intercooler outlet temperature reduction each run
• Garrett intercooler heat soak temperature: 90 F after 4 th run
• OE intercooler heat soak temperature: 150 F after 8 th run
• ~ 60 F heat soak temperature reduction

CFD Optimized Design:
• CFD optimized design allows Garrett engineers to improve flow distribution through the end tanks
• The charge air flow shown in the chart depicts air flow per passage
• The variation is ~7% from the mean flow
