PRL High Volume Intake: Civic Type R FL5 / Integra Type S DE5

0:00What's up guys, it's your boy, John. We are back again here with another video something exciting came in today

0:06It's the PRL HBI intake for the Civic Type R and the Integra Type S

0:12So yeah without further ado, let's do a quick unboxing sound comparisons between the other ones

0:20I did earlier which is stock and then the sprit filter and

0:24Now we'll get my reactions

0:27PRL? Okay, so those poems that expand, we have this plastic molding

0:46the outside is texturized, we have a coupler

0:51and more of that poem, nothing on anything

0:56Look at the meat and potatoes of it, you can see on the insides it's smooth which is great

1:06And while everything's inside of it, this one's gonna screw

1:18this so we can get more access

1:24Notice it's pretty expensive but compared to other intakes on the market, it's a great deal

1:31All right, I'm not into like okay engine bay with carbon fiber, it's awesome

1:38I think there's a fine balance between performance

1:41Looks, I kind of might dig this OEM looks

1:45Heat soap, okay I'm not gonna just leave like that

1:55Now the coupler here in the mouth house, let's do the design, it's like a

2:14velocity stack, PRL printed

2:28Hardware, looks like some washers

2:40Now this is all interesting piece right here, this is a snorkel

2:48for the bottom of the intake, so I haven't seen any really good footage

2:53So imagine the car kind of like this, it's gonna sit like that

2:58And the OEM one

3:01Takes air here, goes down

3:04And goes back up, this one just goes straight in

3:07But even with that change, it's not enough air accordingly

3:27Gonna be cool

3:32Install, there are some good videos out there, I'll see if I will

3:38Do a quick install, but I really want to do just do a comparison

3:42All right, so the box is in, I know it's got a lot of steps, I'm just gonna tell you what I ran into

3:47And some mindful thoughts

3:51When you install the box, try to give this, make this area loose, don't bolt anything that kind of goes without saying

3:58The the bottom right here has a part near reuse from the OEM box that kind

4:04And then there's that drain hole, so there's just one, this one kind of helps align the bottom

4:10And then it reuses this back when right here as well

4:14Now for the mass sensor harness

4:18There's this plastic piece that used to go around the OEM box kind of like this

4:23And it goes here

4:25So that piece is kind of a pain the butt to take off

4:32But you could just remove one of these pins and kind of route it like this

4:37You could take it off, I just left it on there because it kind of just works like that

4:43Um, you can see right there

4:47Taking it off this priority, I mean you just unplug this and take it off one

4:51Just like I feel like 20 little those pop clips

4:55And um

4:57Yeah, I just didn't want to do that in case I need just I live in California, so

5:02It's a pain the butt just in case I need to swap back to the OEM box you just flop it real quick

5:07So I just like I'm not gonna spend like 30 minutes

5:12Maybe you can do it better, but they're plastic, so they're it's easily to break

5:16And let's see what else

5:18This piece right here is normally

5:23It is like they kind of like grind it off so you can't

5:27Unscrew it from the factory

5:29So instead of like unscrewing it just loosen these two OEM ones and then you can just pull it straight out

5:37Um

5:38Yeah, we use OEM seals

5:41These little things are kind of hard to push in but they push in

5:46And uh, yeah, that's about it

5:48I'll go for a test drive give you guys a

5:52Sound comparison. I'll try to make it similar to my original video

5:56I do have the Honda out of tune now, so it's a little bit more aggressive in terms of the pops

6:03But if you can just focus on the startup

6:07So I already started the car just in case

6:10And I've warmed it up set like four barters three bars right now, so

6:14Should be good. It's already warmed up. I'm gonna start it do some revs and then move on to the

6:21My impressions of me driving it. Sound comparison is what you guys are here for. So

6:26I'll try to do a good job

6:28And keeping it pretty

6:30Similar all right, so that concludes it the PRL intake my thoughts on it much louder than stock

8:32It is louder than the OEM

8:35Stock box with the sprint and spoon filter

8:40And I definitely hear it more towards the less side of the car

8:46You can hear it with the windows actually up now like a good amount

8:52Um, power wise it feels

8:55Okay, like the same to be honest

8:57I actually have a fairable tune that has it for the intake each

9:02HVI for the PRL intake so I have a tune for it

9:06I need to put on and you know

9:09Shout out to John Vega for that. That's gonna be an upcoming video of having it all that

9:15Jazz going on right now. Just have the Honda data stage one tune the 91 octane. So yeah

9:22Overall do I recommend it?

9:25For the price and if you're into all this stuff and if you like intake noises

9:29I think you'll love it

9:31Yeah, thank you guys for watching. I'll catch you guys in the next one peace out PRL intake. It's a dub
