This guy gonna need a new clutch soon with all those damn gainz.

[@oliviacolunga1548]

Why do I keep hearing a new clutch will be needed. I’m just learning

[@sfurq2954]

the x gen civics are known to come with weak stock clutches and opposed to previous generations

[@oliviacolunga1548]

@@sfurq2954 so how do I know if I need a new clutch

[@Mario-jj5wk]

@@oliviacolunga1548 I had to replace my clutch recently. You will know when it starts slipping and if you haven’t felt that before, it feels like the car can’t go when you gas it. With my x gen si, it would not move when I gas then out of no where it jerks the car when it finally catches grip. Won’t need to replace if you’re not kidding your x gen but mine started after 1k miles using tsp stage 1+ at 250whp

[@lawrencelucero8487]

I trick I use to keep the bug buildup away is a piece of nylon window screen in front of intercooler and radiator. Doesn't really effect airflow and keeps the bugs from clogging your new intercooler.

[@charlie_mk7.5]

I didn't do much today, but I ended up learning that you can vape through a stock Honda Civic Si 2020 intercooler. So yeah as usual it was a productice day ;)

I dont even have a civic si..jus like watchin the videos keep makin great videos 👍

No joke dude. I believe that’s one of the first must have mod for all the 10th gen. My accord 2.0 after 4 or 5 hard runs, it gets sluggish.

[@cartoonathalo]

You ain’t lying, my 2.0t stock does the same thing lol

[@civichatchback]

You mean after you flash a tune. Or are you making back to back hits? I've noticed mine is way faster right after I flash a tune then it kinda settles down.

@@SovannaSom I guess I just dont run mine that hard. It's my daily. I put 106000 on mine already.

Great mod & company choice! This was the first performance mod I did on my R. I consider it a priority for 10 gen civics. Great content man!

[@Camhill182]

It is certainly a priority. I should have gotten mine a lot sooner

[@asifalimirza]

IAT is temp from the intake, IAT2 is the cooled air. There should be a 10 to 20 degree difference between both IAT and IAT2, that's how you would tell how well the intercooler is working

So did I hear some fans say to meet me in Mexico? 🤣😂🤣

[@YashSamant]

Nice video! Curious to see if the bigger inter cooler will make turbo lag worse at all. That’s the main thing holding me back from making the upgrade. If not, I’m surprised Honda didn’t put bigger ones in the car if the only downside is cost

[@dandimoski8107]

ayy lit Spooly boi aint heat soaking no more!!! banger yet again! 🔥🔥🔥🔥

Thank you for your service !

[@DiscyBoyo3000]

ima be doing this on the shivic and then tune it . Great video!!!

[@raymondamoroso2049]

Hey Cam, dumb question but I'm getting the vibe doing the intake at the same time as the IC/pipes is gonna give you a bit more room on the right.... I'm looking to get the intake/KT from phearable and still trying to figure out which IC &pipes I'm going with. (Heard good things about mishimoto being the best option here) for black friday and would like to do all 3 pieces at the same time. I've been hearing people say after getting the KT they wish they did their IC 1st instead of the intake, so I'm trying to take advantage of black friday and get it all knocked out at once.

[@Camhill182]

The intercooler is the most crucial supporting mod when making more power. Even if you stay on the stock tune, an intercooler upgrade will help a lot

[@lukehoffman6853]

Appreciate the video, just put my PRL intercooler and pipes in. Question, did you tweak your tune after installing? I am running Phearable 1.5 and since installing the intercooler my K.con values are running upper fifties vs upper forties. Thanks!

[@bobbykoller2003]

I’ve heard adding the charge pipes over stock doesn’t really make a difference, they just run you another $500 or so bucks. Any truth to that?

Dakota Hall would there be a power lost due to the catted or thats not that big of an influence

[@artblackwood7936]

I have a very similar set-up as you. After driving for a while, I get 10 degrees above ambient for CAI and 20 degrees above ambient post inter-cooler. Would be cool to know what the pre-inter-cooler temperature is. Thanks for your videos. 2018 Civic Si Coupe. Street MAPerformance exhaust from the turbo back (performance catted down pipe).

Wow! Great setup! My MAPerformance catted DP with FP is arriving today and will be installed soon. Do you scrape a lot with your lowering springs?

[@artblackwood7936]

@@Camhill182 I put on the springs that only lower about 1". If I take a corner into a parking lot with a bump and hit it with 1 wheel there is a tiny bit of scraping. Car looks really good though:) Your car looks awesome. Keep it going.

[@oliviacolunga1548]

Hey Cameron did u ever do a video on the abbreviation on the ktuner? I found a list on their website but it’s a bit too technical. Not sure what each means. I’d really like to see something like that explaining what each is and what it does

[@Camhill182]

I never did a video like that, but they do have an acronym list. The acronyms I didnt know back then, I just had to spend the time and google them

[@mnorman8227]

Nice facility your doing that at

[@ahs9583]

What’s the difference between small Inter cooler and a big one? And the big one adds more power?

[@Camhill182]

Ill explain in a future video. Its an important mod

[@notorious.k.i.p.]

Nice video man. I want to get one of these but i dont trust myself to install it lol.

[@jnick1909]

The inter cooler install is very straight forward. The hardest part is getting the bumper off.

[@notorious.k.i.p.]

@@jnick1909 I'll have to watch a few more videos on it. I'm not too handy with this stuff lol

[@gettingfitat5015]

My GOD I can't wait until I can afford one of these for my si!!!!! Fu*king should've listened to you and got this BEFORE I bought the K tuner and tune...ugh.

I was thinking about going mishimoto IC and saw this pop up and was like okay, phone read my mind. 🔥

[@Camhill182]

Mishimoto is supposed to be excellent! I almost bought theirs

[@Shoookiez]

Cameron Hill I know you said you haven’t had it on long , have you done any wide open throttles? If so how’s it feel ? Need all the details before I drop 600 beans

[@Camhill182]

I did one open throttle in 3rd gear and it felt great. I wouldn't say I felt a difference, but I'll really be able to tell the difference when I have my next race

[@Shoookiez]

Cameron Hill okay cool thanks & looking forward to seeing that

[@edcamden2571]

My PRL intercooler and charge pipe arrives tomorrow! Looking forward to seeing how drivability is improved here in Georgia as it’s been consistently in the upper 90s for a couple of weeks now.

[@jbragg2493]

I’m in GA also. So what do you think of the intercooler?

[@edcamden2571]

James Bragg definitely more consistent. There seems to me a momentary lag with the stock intake and the larger charge pipe though. Also, the stock air is literally next to and rubs the charge pipe. My 27WON intake arrives next Monday so hopefully that corrects both issues. Overall, worth it as doing more than one pull on the stock intercooler was instant heat soak with pulling timing/boost.

Thanks, and i do have some annoyances with it. It makes me press every single thing twice for it to register, and it also will not auto connect when i start the car

did your car come with the touring headlights stock? Nice install video. Did you get the street or racing intercooler?

[@Camhill182]

Yes it did. I was not aware that there was such thing as a racing intercooler for this car. I got the only intercooler that PRL offers

[@Magiquhl]

Quick question Cameron, where did you get your windshield mount for the K Tuner V2, I’m looking for a mount like thay for mine thank you

Yeah bro the intercooler fits all 2016 1.5 civics

[@katsukiyo]

Hey uh cameron, is it necessary to tune the car after installing the PRL Intercooler? I tuned my civic with the cold air intake and before installing the intercooler. Is it necessary? Thanks

[@Camhill182]

Nope! Intercoolers are plug and play on all 10th Gen turbo Civics

[@timothysarin]

I need me a intercooler next!! 😭 the heat soak ain’t no joke!

Caseys_si yes!! The mornings are when our cars run the best, I’ve got the pro Civic grille to help with more airflow entering/exiting now it’s just which intercooler do I want to choose from lol
