Powerful Engine and Fun to Drive

The 2025 Honda Civic Type R continues to set the benchmark for front wheel drive performance hatchbacks, combining sharp engineering with everyday usability. Powered by a turbocharged 2.0 litre four cylinder engine producing 315 horsepower and 420 Nm of torque, it delivers rapid acceleration and an engaging drive through its precise 6 speed manual gearbox and limited slip differential.

To further enhance this platform, a mid section adjustment was carried out on the Honda Type R Exhaust System. This modification improves exhaust gas flow through the centre section, reducing back pressure and allowing the turbocharger to operate more efficiently. As a result, we achieved sharper throttle response, a more refined yet aggressive tone, and improved overall engine performance.

Top-Notch Suspension and Handling

This Civic Type R features advanced suspension technology including a dual axis front setup and high performance braking, ensuring excellent grip and control. Paired with Michelin Pilot Sport 4S tyres, it offers confidence in both spirited driving and daily use, making it one of the most capable hot hatchbacks available in the UK.

With the Honda Type R Exhaust upgrade, the vehicle now benefits from smoother exhaust flow that complements the chassis dynamics. The improved sound profile delivers a deeper and sportier tone under acceleration, while maintaining comfort and refinement during normal driving conditions.

Standing Out in the UK Market

Blending performance, practicality, and cutting edge engineering, the Civic Type R stands out against rivals such as the Golf R and Focus ST. Its driver focused design and responsive nature make it a top choice for enthusiasts seeking both excitement and reliability.

The upgraded Honda Type R Exhaust System enhances this appeal even further, unlocking additional character from the engine and creating a more immersive driving experience without compromising everyday usability.

Boosting Performance with DKU Exhaust Systems

As part of this upgrade, the mid section of the exhaust was precisely adjusted to optimise flow and refine acoustics. The DKU Performance approach ensures reduced restriction within the system, improved turbo efficiency, and a cleaner exhaust path. This results in a sharper response, enhanced sound quality, and a noticeable improvement in how the vehicle performs across the rev range.
