Older thread I know but I'm doing research before purchasing a 2015 fit. Weapon R just sent me a PM and stated they think it should fit the 2015 Auto CVT Fit. It's mentioned earlier in this thread that this piece made 8hp. I'm wondering where? Do we think it is because of the cat being deleted because if that is the cause, I'll be keeping my cat. Or do we think it is because of the buldge piece at the entrance of the stock piping being eliminated....to perhaps keep exhaust gas velocity up.

I'm really interested in this as well. Has anyone weighed the stock and Weapon R piping? I'll keep digging.

I have the Weapon R racing header on my GD-3.. There is a big difference in weight between it and all of the stuff it replaces.. It is very thin stainless steel that will melt if covered with exhaust wrap.

2 months later!

I'm getting a little better searching for stuff.

On a 2013 Fit Auto, the Converter weighs 8.87 lbs (2nd Converter before 'B' Pipe).
The first converter that attaches to the exhaust manifold weighs 7.45 lbs.

16.32 lbs total. Maybe shaved 9-11 lbs off with the Weapon R?
