2021+ Acura TLX 2.0T Intercooler Upgrade
It's no secret that Honda's newer turbo platforms are extremely susceptible to heat-soak, especially when retaining the factory intercooler. Excessive heat-soak increases the risk of detonation and causes major power loss due to high charge air and cylinder temperatures. These issues become even more prevalent with spirited driving and/or increased power outputs.
The PRL Motorsports intercooler upgrade decreases charge air temperatures while increasing potential airflow with its dense 27 x 3.5 x 7.25" 550+ horsepower-rated bar-and-plate core. The core increases surface area by 85% and internal flow by 83% to allow optimal cooling and airflow. It utilizes factory mounting spots with cast aluminum end tanks and retains all factory air ducts and shrouds.
