From everything I have seen a good intake & Exhaust for this car typically gives you about a 7-10whp gain.
Just to build on this a bit, the supercharger gives you a substantial power gain across the entire power band, not just at the peak. That means your low end, your mid range and high end are all superior to NA bolt ons even if they were somehow able to match the SC at the tippy tippy top. When you actually feel the difference the SC makes it wins hands down (be on the track or on the highway).
I had a chance to ride along with Illusive back to back with my car, his Fit makes mine feel pretty slow (ok, maybe more like standing still slow
) despite the substantial NA setup I have. For the record I have spent about
3250$ on actual power making engine bolt on's alone and I am probably only putting down 115 to 120whp if I am lucky. SC is totally worth it IMO.
