HKS Stainless Steel Downpipe Exhaust System - Honda Civic Type R FK8
STAINLESS STEEL DOWNPIPE
An exhaust part to get maximum performance out of the turbocharged engine.
Stainless steel downpipe replaces stock turbo outlet pipe with catalytic converter and signigicatly reduces exhaust restrictions.
It results in less stress on a turbocharger in high rpm / high boost and improves throttle response, allowing to experience more powerful linear boost.
Concept
The K20C engine was designed for use in a normal road car and features a catalytic converter, removing this converter eliminates its restricting effects which significantly increases the engine horsepower.
HKS developed an extension pipe without the catalytic converter and a frontpipe that will connect it to a catback exhaust system.
Features
- Removing catalytic converter results in a more linear boost and throttle response.
- Uses 3 inch pipes, compatible with HKS catback exhausts.
- A perfect addition to intake, intercooler and other HKS products for future ECU tuning and boostup.
- Decreases secondary exhaust gas pressure from turbine and reduces exhaust restriction.
