It's a thick core. 2.75" or 3" thick I think. If you have any cooling issues with the car do not buy one. It made my crx over heat because there simply wasn't enough airflow. But on my dc integra it's fine.

I understand that it's is for cooling your air. What I'm saying is that the core of the intercooler is so thick that it blocks airflow to your radiator and and your radiator doesn't cool the water very well. But you will probably be fine since it's in a ep civic. And not a ef crx.
