It was mentioned way back by Oscar Jr. that there were no plans on high boost for the A/T kits....at the time, maybe it changed?(Fingers crossed, hoping)

well i hope koi chimes in with some driving impressions!
Unfortunately I can't say much regarding driving impressions as I forget how the car felt before changing plugs. However, the numbers on the dyno pretty much tell what I can't tell you, it was like +3 hp and +10 ft tq from switching to the NGK plugs. By the way, that might not be my dyno as I had NGK Iridiums put in, not Denso IK22. Could be an error on their part, could be some other Fit, but either way my dyno looked pretty much just like the one on the KW spark plug page.

How much HP did the base unit for the AT trans put out i could not find it on the picture that was posted online? or was it dynoed at all??
there was one member at the dyno day who made 121 whp and about 118lb-ft of torque. taking into consideration the drivetrain loss, it basically made his fit have 140+hp and more importantly almost 140lb-ft of torque. (at the crank obviously. i just feel thats better to tell people as no one walks around saying they have an 90whp fit, or a 170whp si.)

Thanx for the response i just wanted 2 see maybe if anybody had maybe a couple more bolt on parts aside from the kit and how much HP they got out of it?

well, remember that those numbers i'm quoting were just with the basic kit. no headers, no exhaust. and no larger injectors. all these things would increase your hp. with those mods (and depending on the quality of parts used) a 150-160hp engine producing fit should be very possible. it would be like swapping in a k20a3 from a base rsx/si hatch, but with torque more on par with a k24.

hey no problem dude. since a lot of guys on the site either have not done it, or because they dont have the equipment to gauge it, i usually go to edmunds and look up cars with a certain amount of horsepower and calculate thier power to weight ratios and look up their 0-60 times. you would be suprised were a supercharged/turbocharged fit stands, even in a/t form.

awesome. how much more punch do you feel your car has compared to stock?
A good amount more. Not as much as I WANT (A/T mid-high boost please), but it's a good improvement from where it was before - especially on hot days, going up hills, etc. I hated my car when it'd be so utterly bogged down on hot days and going uphill, but now it's a matter of just driving normally and not running into any problems. Basically it's made the daily driving 100x better because everything is made much more possible. 0-60 and the accompanying sounds and torque is always fun too.

awesome! given that our a/t usually presents a 0-60 run anywhere from 10-11 seconds, would you say you are having 0-60 runs maybe in the mid eights? maybe even high sevens?
