The OEM 2012-2015 Honda Civic Si (9th Generation) intake manifold has 3 vacuum ports. When installing an RBC intake manifold, you will find that there are only 2 ports available on the manifold. This adapter plate will provide you with the 3rd port necessary for installation, which is to be connected to your brake booster line. This kit also comes with an accessory 1/8" NPT hole which provides a boost reference for accessories such as a boost gauge, blow-off-valve, wastegate, or fuel pressure regulator. The HRD RBC Throttle Body Adapter Plate is precision machined out of 6061-T6 aluminum and anodized in HRD Midnight Navy for a durable and aesthetic finish.
Thermal Conductivity
Aluminum's thermal conductivity helps in managing heat transfer between the throttle body and intake manifold. While the spacer is designed to reduce heat soak, 6061 aluminum minimizes localized hotspots and ensures the spacer maintains structural integrity under varying temperature conditions.
Corrosion Resistance
6061 aluminum naturally resists corrosion due to the formation of a protective oxide layer. This is crucial for throttle body spacers, which are exposed to air, moisture, and fuel vapors in the engine compartment. Combined with our type II anodizing, enhanced corrosion resistance ensures longevity and consistent performance, even in harsh conditions.
Perfect Sealing
Particularly effective in high-pressure environments, the compressive nature of O-rings allows them to maintain a seal even under fluctuating pressures, as they deform to fill gaps. High-performance O-rings also withstand extreme temperatures with ease.
