It’s no secret that Acura's Turbo TLX is extremely susceptible to heat-soak, especially when retaining the factory intercooler. Excessive heat-soak increases the risk of detonation and causes major power loss due to high charge air and cylinder temperatures. These issues become even more prevalent with spirited driving and/or increased power outputs. The PRL Motorsports intercooler upgrade decreases charge air temperatures while increasing potential airflow with its dense 28 x 5 x 6.375" 650+ horsepower rated bar-and-plate core. Our intercooler core increases surface area by 54% and internal flow by 91% to allow optimal cooling and airflow. Billet machined aluminum end tanks maximize efficiency while looking as smooth as they flow! This intercooler utilizes factory mounting spots with our billet machined end tanks. To maintain consistency with most of our PRL product line, no cutting, fitting, or trimming is required.
