PRL Motorsports Downpipe Gasket Acura RDX | Honda Accord | Civic Type-R 2017+
$16.99

If you’re diving into some serious upgrades for your 2017+ Honda Civic Type-R, 2018+ Honda Accord 2.0L Turbo, or 2019+ Acura RDX 2.0L Turbo, you’ll want to pay attention to this replacement gasket. It’s not just any gasket; it’s built to handle the heat and pressure that come with performance driving.

This gasket is made from KLINGER® GRAPHITE LAMINATE SLS, which means you’re getting top-notch sealing capabilities across a wide temperature range. We’re talking about a material that can handle up to 450°C—perfect for those hot, high-performance situations. The construction involves expanded layers of graphite bonded to a thin sheet of smooth metal foil, ensuring durability and flexibility. The adhesive used is carefully controlled, keeping it under 1% of the graphite content, which means you get a reliable seal without compromising performance.

  • Great chemical resistance—so it can stand up to whatever you throw at it.
  • Conforms easily to uneven surfaces, making it a solid choice for those tricky flanges.
  • Stable physical properties throughout its entire temperature range—no surprises here.

Now, let’s talk fitment. This gasket is specifically designed for:

  • Honda Civic Type-R (2017 and up)
  • Honda Accord 2.0L Turbo (2018 and up)
  • Acura RDX 2.0L Turbo (2019 and up)

Just a heads up—this gasket fits right between the downpipe and front pipe, and in the case of the 2018+ Honda Accord, it also goes between the front pipe and the exhaust. It has a 3-inch ID bore, so make sure your setup matches that.

In short, if you’re looking to keep your exhaust system sealed tight and ready to perform, this gasket is a solid choice. It’s built for the long haul, just like your ride.
