The MISMMAI-CTR-23UBK is a Mishimoto black silicone inlet pipe for the 2023 and newer Honda Civic Type R FL5. It replaces the factory intercooler outlet-to-throttle body hose with high-temperature silicone to improve boost delivery and heat resistance on the K20C1 engine.
What is the difference between MISMMAI-CTR-23UBK and MISMMAI-CTR-23URD?The only difference is color. MISMMAI-CTR-23UBK is black and MISMMAI-CTR-23URD is red. Both are identical in construction, material, and fitment for the 2023+ FL5 Civic Type R.
Does the inlet pipe work with the factory intercooler and aftermarket intercoolers?MISMMAI-CTR-23UBK is designed for the factory intercooler outlet. Compatibility with an aftermarket intercooler depends on whether the aftermarket unit uses the same outlet dimensions and position. Confirm with the intercooler manufacturer before pairing.
Is MISMMAI-CTR-23UBK for FK8 or FL5?MISMMAI-CTR-23UBK is for the FL5 (2023+) Civic Type R only. FK8 owners need a different Mishimoto part number specific to their generation.
Will this inlet pipe increase boost levels?The silicone inlet pipe does not increase boost by itself. It reduces restriction and improves flow consistency, which can help the factory or upgraded turbo maintain more consistent boost delivery compared to a collapsing factory rubber hose.
Does MISMMAI-CTR-23UBK require cutting any factory components?No. MISMMAI-CTR-23UBK is a direct bolt-on replacement requiring no cutting, drilling, or permanent modification to the vehicle.
Is the black silicone finish durable in the FL5 engine bay?Yes. The high-temperature silicone construction is rated for sustained engine bay temperatures. The black color is consistent and UV-stable under normal driving conditions.
How long does installation take?Typical installation time for MISMMAI-CTR-23UBK is 20 to 40 minutes with basic hand tools and no special equipment required.
