Overview

The PRL 4847RS Drop-In Turbocharger Upgrade is designed for 2016-2021 Honda Civic 1.5T owners who want significantly more power without sacrificing the quick response and drivability that make these vehicles so enjoyable to drive.

Built as a true drop-in replacement for the factory turbocharger, the 4847RS installs without modifications and retains OEM-style fitment. The "RS" designation stands for Rapid Spool, reflecting the primary goal of this turbocharger's design: delivering stock-like spool characteristics while supporting substantially greater airflow and power potential.

At the heart of the 4847RS is a carefully selected combination of advanced materials and modern turbocharger technology. A 7075 point-milled compressor wheel, Inconel turbine wheel assembly, and Si3N4 ceramic bearing system work together to provide exceptional response, durability, and long-term reliability under demanding conditions.

Whether you're looking for improved performance on a daily-driven Civic or building a more capable street and track package, the PRL 4847RS offers an ideal balance of responsiveness, power capability, and reliability.

As with all PRL Motorsports products, extensive development and testing were conducted to ensure the turbocharger meets the performance expectations of Honda enthusiasts while maintaining the fit and function expected from a direct replacement component.

Customer Reviews (4.6 / 5 · 5 reviews)

Daniel ★★★★★

The spool-up feels almost stock down low, which surprised me for a drop-in that wakes up the midrange this much. Daily driving hasn't suffered at all, and the extra shove past 4,000 rpm makes merging effortless.

David N. ★★★★★

Install was straightforward, and the low-end spool surprised me—boost builds noticeably earlier than stock. My Civic pulls hard through the mid-range without losing the daily-driver feel I was worried about.

Jacob ★★★★★

The turbo spools noticeably faster than the stock unit, and that quick response makes daily driving feel effortless even before the boost kicks in hard. Install was a direct drop-in swap, no extra fabrication needed, which saved me a full weekend of headaches.
