If you’ve ever pushed your Civic Type R to its limits, you know that high oil temperatures can be a real killer for performance. The factory oil system just doesn’t cut it, whether you’re hitting the track or just cruising around town. That’s where the MAPerformance Civic Type R Oil Cooler Kit comes in, and let me tell you, it’s a game changer.
When we set out to design this kit, we wanted something that would fit seamlessly without sacrificing ground clearance. Our thermostatic oil filter adapter plate does just that, positioning the filter up and out of harm's way. Plus, we added 1/8" NPT ports to the side of the housing. This means you can monitor your oil temperature and pressure with ease, giving you crucial data to keep your engine running smoothly. We even included the necessary -8AN to 1/8" NPT adapter fittings to make it all work together.
Now, let’s talk about the cooler itself. We went with one of the largest SETRAB cores that fits within a reasonable budget, because cooling efficiency is key. The K20C1 engine has a small oil capacity, so being able to add nearly a full quart with this setup really helps maintain stable oil temperatures and pressure. And trust me, your engine will thank you for it.
Installation? It’s straightforward. Our 304 stainless steel bracket is not only durable but also a 100% bolt-on solution—no cutting or trimming required. You might have to remove a few small plastic pieces, but that’s about it. It’s designed to keep everything looking clean and stylish under the hood for years to come.
