During sustained hard use, this can become a substantial issue, as temperatures can increase enough to trigger the ECU’s safety features, reducing torque or even putting the car into a limp mode. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Solution - developed in-house at AIRTEC HQ in the UK, AIRTEC designed an auxiliary radiator to focus on reducing heat from the hottest part of the engine; the turbo. This radiator is plumbed directly into the cooling circuit that flows coolant to and from the turbo, therefore offering an immediate reduction in temperature to help counteract the effects of the coolant being ‘superheated’ as it passes through the turbo before it passes back into the radiator. This helps reduce the whole engine’s cooling level, as less heat into the radiator equates to less heat in the car’s overall operating temperature, allowing the car to maintain a steadier temperature for longer during hard use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe radiator fits neatly behind the fog light (requires removal) and utilises AIRTEC's bespoke CAD-modelled air duct to force cold air through the radiator. To create a flow path and further improve cooling, air then exits via the inner arch liner (requires cutting). A pre-cut mesh shield is supplied for both the front and rear to protect the radiator from road debris damage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe comprehensive kit also features laser-cut and powder-coated brackets, high-quality Pro Hoses silicone lines as well as all fixtures and fittings, and detailed fitting instructions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis can fit in conjunction with AIRTEC's intercooler, oil cooler and gearbox cooler combination to create the ultimate cooling package.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDesigned and developed in the UK specifically for the Civic FK2 Type R\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFits neatly behind the grille\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCools the superheated water leaving the turbocharger\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eImproves car’s cooling capacity and ability\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBespoke laser-cut and powder coated brackets\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh-quality Pro Hoses silicone lines\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFits with AIRTEC's intercooler, oil cooler and gearbox cooler to create the ultimate cooling package\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eComprehensive kit with all fixtures, fittings and instructions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003enote: image is for illustration purposes and may differ on delivery\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"AIRTEC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58735455011161,"sku":"ATRADHON02","price":449.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0933\/7765\/9225\/files\/ATRADHON02_1-768x768.jpg?v=1785429174","url":"https:\/\/www.rivalperformance.co.uk\/products\/airtec-turbo-radiator-honda-civic-type-r-fk2","provider":"Rival Performance","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
