AIRTEC MOTORSPORT – OIL COOLER HONDA CIVIC FL5 TYPE R

Description

As part of our expanding Honda platform product range, AIRTEC Motorsport is proud to launch our external oil cooler kit for the FL5 Civic Type R, suitable for track or fast road use.

With extensive experience developing external oil cooler packages for a variety of modified track and street cars, and aware of the FL5 Type R""s oil cooling issues during track use, the challenge with this kit was to neatly integrate a large capacity external oil cooler into which it could still benefit from direct airflow, integrating seamlessly with the car""s existing fixtures and fittings without the need for drilling or cutting.

Unlike previous Type R models, fitting the oil cooler in the lower bumper was not possible, so we chose to use the upper grille area and opted to design a unique oil cooler to make the most of the limited space available, rather than using a generic off-the-shelf item.

As a result, compared to a universal 13-row oil cooler, our custom-built oil cooler has 45% more capacity and is 100%/double the frontal area, meaning there is more airflow passing through the core to help cool it. We also purposely spaced the oil cooler from the radiator to avoid potential heat absorption issues, creating a package that is unrivaled on the market.

The complete package includes custom laser-cut and powder-coated mounting brackets, high-quality braided hoses with Aerotec fittings, and all hardware, including instructions, for a simple bolt-on installation.

Its increased cooling efficiency and ease of mounting make it an essential modification for all modified FL5 Type R models.
