Thanks for all the great videos @Edge Autosport! These have been extremely helpful for me. Do you think it is possible that upgrading to a Koyorad Radiator would be more beneficial than a (mishimoto, Aem) short ram air intake? When you talked about the car pulling timing it made me think of this.
Blows my mind seeing the big torque and low hp numbers from such a lil engine. Definite signs of a small turbo. Hoping to pick up a new 2020 within a week
Did you have trouble getting the cold side completely flush? There was no way to get a torque wrench to screw the bolts, I had to use a tiny 10mm box wrench to be able to tighten the bolts.
Installed mine a few hours ago, about 3 or 4 of the clips didn't make it on somehow but got the metal screws and most of the clips on, that thing is never coming off so long as I have it
They have nothing to worry about at these power levels. I've been pushing ~300whp for a few months and I drive aggressively often. Proper maintenance and a good tune and you'll be good.
Any difference an intercooler is going to make is going to be immediate. However, the intercooler really starts to shine when you get more aggressive with the tuning since the intercooler is providing cooler temps.
Awesome video, just ordered a Mishimoto intercooler and piping kit for $480 shipped. Do you think the piping will have a noticeable increase in power? Also what fuel did you use when tuning? 91 or 93?
We use 91 because that's the best gas we have in our area. The piping isn't going to be a significant change on stock turbo. We did a test with that and just released the video if you want to check it out. Make sure you check us out for your next mod! We'd love to help you with your build!
We haven't tried that. You could probably bolt it on without a tune just fine but it's not going to benefit you as much as a tune will for making power. However, it will keep the temps much more consistent and keep them lower. If airflow changes enough, then it could take the ECU into areas that it isn't used to seeing and start making automatic adjustments that you don't want.
@@EdgeAutosport after installing the intercooler withg stock piping why do i have a small vibrating/grinding noise at 2k-3k RPMS ? could it be that the Metal Undertray isnt secure enough?? it is missing a few plastic fasteners
Thanks! There really wasn't a huge reason other than Mishimoto has been a good company to work with over the years and it appeared that this was a really nice product based on the build specs. The cast end tanks are always really cool to me and it was bar and plate which I wanted for the build too. It was a very complete kit with the option to use stock piping or upgraded too which was cool. We obviously choose parts that we sell too.
so you kept the original pipping? And only switched out the intercooler im just asking because im looking for a intercooler upgrade on my 2019 si sedan
So basically from what I’m gathering is that the stock piping is fine for the stock turbo and if you plan to get a bigger turbo then the aftermarket piping is worth it as it allows more airflow? Or an I wrong?
@@EdgeAutosport Gotcha. I might get the radiator for now that way the small turbo doesnt work that hard to get air compared to bigger pipes. it sounds like a loss in turbo efficiency since it it has to work harder thus creating turbo lag. Idk if you felt any lag with the piping on.
Hi, just a quick question, I am purchasing this intercooler and I have a Ktuner, I believe you said after installing the intercooler there is some tuning need to be done could you please give me a little more details about it ?
To make use of the cooler, denser air, you can get more aggressive with the tune. The benefit of the intercooler is great by itself, but you can more aggressively tune the ECU and get more power from the car after the upgrade. We suggest a custom tune if you'd like to maximize the intercooler's potential to increase performance.
I'm a bit confused by your question with the double negative but I think I understand. You can use stock piping and it will not have a significant effect on performance.
Can't make power without proper cooling, now I gotta get this intercooler and take off the stock one, I'm planning on getting a tuner soon plus new intake for the nice turbo sounds, is the sedan version any harder than the coupe or is it the same ?
An intercooler is always a good call! The sedan and coupe should install similarly. We've got some Ktuners ready to roll if you want to claim one, head over to the website or give us a call.
From what I understand if you're not tuned it doesn't matter. But if you plan on running a bigger turbo and boost levels above stock it'll help to have the charge pipes. Again, charge pipes are something you can do later on.
Also an owner of a si. I got a question. Will you get a check engine light with the mishimoto intercooler without a Tune? Currently running the prl street intake.
That alone shouldn't cause a check engine light. But I suppose there is a change the ECU could sense enough change in air quality that it might throw a CEL. I really don't know. We're so used to tuning before getting into bolting on parts.
@@EdgeAutosport thank you so much for the feedback!! I'll try and get some more information. I'm trying to put bolts on first before a tune so it all comes together.
Might be a long shot since this video is 9 months out but what’s all the mods you have done to this civic when you tuned it with the Intercooler installed? I’m just seeing how much I’ll be making when mine gets done.
Haha yes, her name is "Mahle". Also, we almost put one in the end of this video but didn't. We're going to start putting them in. We probably have 3 hours worth of outtakes at this point lmao. They're ridiculous. The one in this video was actually a mistake and not meant to be included. I was lucky because I didn't cuss or do anything completely idiotic like I usually do LOL
@@EdgeAutosport Sorry, I'm late to the party. Just want to confirm the car was not running flex fuel in this video, correct? Glad I came across your channel the videos are top notch!

We don't have experience with the PRL but we know it's good. Especially the new one with the billet end tanks. I don't think you can go wrong with either honestly. The Mishimoto performs well for us. We might end up testing the PRL one day too.
after installing the mishimoto intercooler on my 2020 Si sedan i noticed a small vibrating noise that only happens when i am riding at 2000-2600 RPMs. i kept the stock piping and hoses and just installed intercooler. it does it in every gear around that RPM range its like a gurgling vibrating noise. its only done it since after i installed the intercooler. any ideas what it might be? its not loud but it kinda reminds me of the rattle i used to get in my old EG6 when the engine vibrates at a certain RPM. could it be bc the airflow has changed and its causing a vibration noise?? or is it the intercooler not properly mounted on the bushings?
Hi thanks for the video , I have a quick question not regards to this video but to a 10g civic. I have a 2020 si coupe an I would like to get some wheels spacers but I am not sure on the site I should get is any side you would recommend, 20mm , 25mm or 27mm ? Thanks in advance and I appreciate your help
To be honest, I don't like using spacers longer than 10mm. I know it's more money, but getting a wheel fitted the way you want is a better option. From a fitment standpoint, I can't make a recommendation because it's really based on your opinion of how it looks and fits and what you want. That's really up to you.
Hey man I wanted to know what your thoughts are on the Injen intercooler? I wanna know because I will be purchasing one! But if you can’t tell me opinion I understand. What are the benefits of the inner cooler
I don't have experience with that one in particular but looking at what it is, I don't think it's a bad choice. It's certainly going to be way better than stock. It's bar and plate so that's very good for cooling and overall volume and capacity. I actually like the end tanks, they look pretty nice. You might experience a dip in boost pressure but the benefits will outweigh that. I would definitely get the car tuned after, in case it is able to pick up more power after the intercooler.

Did you have trouble getting the cold side completely flush? There was no way to get a torque wrench to screw the bolts, I had to use a tiny 10mm box wrench to be able to tighten the bolts.
I don't remember having any issues. You shouldn't really need a torque wrench for this.
Installed mine a few hours ago, about 3 or 4 of the clips didn't make it on somehow but got the metal screws and most of the clips on, that thing is never coming off so long as I have it
How tight are the bolts when you put it back? How much torque for the bolts?
So you only changed the intercooler? With the same tubes from stock one?
Greetings friend, I want to know if these pipes come with the entrance to be able to put Water methanol on it?
I’m wanting to part out my car. How do I replace the plastic I cut for the mishimoto intercooler to kit? I can’t find that part
Looking at getting it and tuning a little down the line
Turbo upgrade next? Maybe a drop in upgrade from 27won or Pureturbos?
I'll just say to keep watching....
Gr video are you worried that the connecting rods might fail?
We're not saying it won't happen, but we're not concerned.
They have nothing to worry about at these power levels. I've been pushing ~300whp for a few months and I drive aggressively often.
Proper maintenance and a good tune and you'll be good.
Awesomeness great vid!
If I put the OEM intercooler back on for a smog check, will I need that plastic stuff that you cut off?
Why would you put the stock one back on for emissions? That would be a complete waste of time.
@@candidcanoncamera577 They aren't CARB legal, and in California apparently this wouldn't pass a smog test? Something along those lines.
Mishimoto got the babiest increase in power
hey man great video, i want this intercooler for looks not for performance... do i need anything before i get this and what’s the purpose for it ?
Just buy a stencil and paint your stock intercooler
Do you need to tune it , or i can slap it in like a intake system and ready to go ??
I just installed mine!! I really appreciate your video , do you know how soon do I begin to see the difference?
Any difference an intercooler is going to make is going to be immediate. However, the intercooler really starts to shine when you get more aggressive with the tuning since the intercooler is providing cooler temps.

Is there a difference between Mishi piping and stock piping?
Hi team my question is do I need the ktuner on the new mishimoto intercooler or can use it with factory power.
We haven't tried that. You could probably bolt it on without a tune just fine but it's not going to benefit you as much as a tune will for making power. However, it will keep the temps much more consistent and keep them lower. If airflow changes enough, then it could take the ECU into areas that it isn't used to seeing and start making automatic adjustments that you don't want.
Edge Autosport curious, how would this be a bad thing? I’m about to do it and need to know if I should stop lol
Is it worth just getting the inter cooler or should I go with the piping too? Would it make a difference?
The intercooler is where the majority of the performance gains will come from, especially with stock turbo.
would you recommend this or the prl intercooler
Can I keep the stock piping for the intercooler or do need to be replace too
You can keep stock piping if you want, that's fine.
Edge Autosport thanks I wanted one for my fk7

What’s the boost psi at now?
We bumped it up to about 23 lbs of pressure. The new intercooler allows for a lot more tunability!

What about the gaz consumption? Any effect?
Only when you press the gas all the way down. ;)
