I believe the article in Sport Compact Car a while ago showed a dyno of about 210whp in N/A format so it must be quite a bit faster with the supercharger. I would expect wheel spin to be a significant issue now right?
If I also remember correctly you guys used the k20z3 tranny with the factory lsd right?
Im pretty sure thats why the car is not dropped all that much. He needs the traction correct?

dam!!!!! i hate you man lmao j/k engine setup looks sick dude. how does it do in the track beacuse alot of people had told me you really can track the fit with a K to heavy in the front.

I've seen pictures on Honda-tech that weighed a B18 and a K20 on the same scale (one at a time ofcourse ) and the K20 was like...20lbs heavier. So i imagine that a Kswaped fit would be like a EK coupe (which is also around 2500lbs, dry) with a Bseries in it or something like that.
jpax? if im not mistaken u used to be in ephatch.com arent u? sick car by the way
Yes I own that site and a few other Automotive sites.

Yes wheel spin is a large issuse, any place close to 3/4 thottle if one was to press hard will brake the tires loose, a woman drives the car more smoothly then any man I know.
Yes Sir we used the Z3 tranny with factory LSD, and it has been doing a great job. for a factory LSD its perfect, were not anyware close to 300 hp and the factory lsd is going strong. I just make sure to maintain the oil changes, and tranny fluid changes more offten then usual.

Illmatic07 That EK is awesome, nice build! I take it, it isn't rocking the gold advans anymore.
Correct sir. The advans are on the Fit now, I am looking to replace them soon. and sell these to a local Fitfreaks member for his build.

Any vids of the car at the track with the k20 and supercharger installed?
No Sir
I made a ricer flyby movie like 2 days ago of some in car action, but I need to get a movie production budget to film anything else, or I will get more hate PMs from members. so that won't be happening anytime soon

Its close to stock right now for daily driving. so I can clear speed bumps, but at the track its lowered. best setup is the one I am on now. So I can load the car with groceries, wife, baby and still make it over speed bumps and pot holes. lol

You said you didn't have the Fit stock long enough to know if the rear brakes were significant, but what about the weight increase in the front? Can you significantly tell that some of the handling was given up for the extra horses, or is it minor?
If your looking to cool the fit down, I know mishimoto makes an aftermarket aluminum radiator for the fit but I am not sure how well it will fit with that supercharger on there.

the weight increase in the front really is not to noticeable because the suspension is setup to handle it.
If someone was to install a K motor on a stock suspension, or even a FIT speced aftermarket suspension like the major namebrand companies. then yes you would notice the difference.
Progress suspension had made great strides to make sure the handeling of the fit was not comprimised with the swap, so I have personally tested 2 setups , the street system, and the full race system. I love the street system for daily driving.
anyone can contact Joey at progress to get the same system for there K swap fit.
