The stock components work perfect! The supercharger kit is not adding as much stress as you might think.
No gauges are required. If you are interested in some gauges, it's up to you to decide what you would like to see reported.

If I don't put in any gauges, will I miss any vital info or can the kit overheat under certain situations where monitoring certain component maybe recommended? I personally don't like to have guages in the car and mess around w/ wiring...

I have been gaugeless for almost a year! kit shouldnt overheat at all.
I signed the interest list a LONG time ago. I've been glued to the old thread everyday though. This thread has helped alot. You guys have been great with answering all the questions and keeping us posted in a timely manner!
I do have one question though. I have searched through the other thread and can't find if the kit will be powder coated like the kit in pictures or if that is something we will have to arrange ourselves? Sorry to bother with such a silly question. Thanks for all your help.

not all boost is created equal.
Can the kit be used for all day daily driving? And what is max boost on stock internals just 4lbs or 6lbs?
The kit will run flawlessly daily, with no hiccups. I am sure Chris can chime in here as well, as he uses his Fit as a daily driver.
And for extended driving, its just the same. We drove our Silver Fit to Buttonwillow Raceway, ran it at the track all day hard, and then drove it back to SoCal. We have taken the Fit from SoCal to Colorado in one day (11 hour trip), without an issue.
We are no where near the max boost range for the L15. Our High-Boost (10 PSI) kit will run all day with no issues as well, so there is no need to be concerned at 5 PSI.

what about jdm fits? or do they have more waiting to do?
We will confirm international compatibility once our production pieces our available. We will be sending these pieces to Rotrex partners throughout the world to check Right Hand Drive Fit/Jazz. We believe that we should have no problems.
Unfortunately, the kit will be available in North America only upon initial release. We will get our international testing complete, and then the kit will be available to all Fit/Jazz owners...
