If you're looking to give your Honda Civic a serious boost, the Cobra Cold Air Intake System is where it’s at. This isn’t just another piece of aftermarket gear; it’s crafted with a CNC machined billet aluminum MAF housing that’s built to keep your fuel trims right on point—think -4% of factory short-term and long-term fuel trims. That means you get the best of both worlds: solid performance without the headache of a tune if you go with the Standard Bore housing.
Now, let’s talk options. You’ve got two choices here: the Standard Bore and the Big Bore housing. The Standard Bore is perfect if you want a straightforward upgrade that fits like a glove and keeps everything factory-spec. But if you’re ready to really crank things up, the Big Bore is where you want to be. It allows for 50% more airflow compared to the Standard, which means less pumping loss and a more direct air path to your engine. Just keep in mind, you’ll need a tune for this one—luckily, there are basemap calibrations available for both Hondata and KTuner.
What’s in the box?
- Billet Aluminum MAF Housing (Anodized Black)
- PRL Motorsports High Flow Oiled Cone Air Filter
- (1) 4-Ply Upper Silicone Intake Hose
- (1) 6-Ply Lower Silicone Intake Hose
- HDPE Rotomolded Lower Intake Tube
- (4) 304 Stainless Steel Worm Clamps
- Stainless Steel Mounting Brackets
- Stainless Steel Hardware
Performance Gains:
- Expect around 20 horsepower and 15 ft/lb of torque over stock with the Big Bore MAF housing, provided you’re using the Big Bore MAF basemap calibration.
- Want more? Custom tuning can really take those gains to the next level, especially if you’re pushing higher power levels.
Fitment:
- Honda Civic Non-Si 1.5L Turbo 2016-2021
Heads up:
- This fits models with the Honda Sensing Package.
- If you’ve got a Canadian model, you’ll need to swap out the windshield washer reservoir for a USDM version.
- Remember, the Big Bore MAF requires specific calibration, so don’t skip that step.
- Two Step Performance TSP & Phearable calibrations are also compatible if you select the Race MAF option.
- And just a note: it’s not going to work with the factory CVT cooler found in some models from Spain, Turkey, etc.
So, if you’re ready to take your Civic to the next level, the Cobra Cold Air Intake System is a solid choice. It’s all about that sweet spot between performance and drivability, and this kit nails it.
