Common FK8 Type R Boost Leak Fix, 27WON Launches Throttle Body Silicone Upgrade

We are pleased to announce a product update for our 2017+ Honda Civic Type R Boost Tubes and our CTR Front Mount Intercooler when ordered with boost tubes. These silicone tubes replace the OEM rubber hoses and help contain the increased boost levels our cars see once upgrades start under the hood.

As these cars have gotten older many of you have reached out to share that your OEM throttle body rubber connector is cracking. Diagnosing the resulting boost leak leads to the discovery that the OEM rubber is defective. If you are wondering what that failure looks like you can check it out below.

Small but lethal, this break can cut your track day short and leave you limping home. 

Could 27WON deliver the solution in the form of an upgraded silicone piece? We are happy to oblige. Now included with our boost tubes is an upgraded silicone throttle body coupler and the required clamps.

Don’t worry if you are reading this having already bought a boost tube kit or our FMIC with boost tubes before we added this silicone to the kit. Drop us an email, cover a small shipping charge, and your free upgraded TB silicone with clamps is in the mail! Update 10/23: This promotion has now concluded.

We constantly evaluate our own products and look for opportunities to improve them. This is just another example of how we REDEFINE the Aftermarket.
