as many of you may know, HFP is like the TRD of Toyota for our Honda. Maintain warranty and get OEM quality products. I wish HFP(Honda Factory Performance) would start to get busier with products for our Fits. It would also benefit them getting people to buy their stuff instead of aftermarkets. In the "Tell Honda" section I started a thread showing big interest in mudflaps for the Sport Fit. Also Id like if they would make an suspension upgrade, either springs or whole coilovers. What you guys think they should make?

A supercharger that would not void your warranty would be cool. But i'm not going to hold my breath on that one.

HFP is NOTHING like TRD (or NISMO or Mazdaspeed or GM Performance or Mopar or RalliArt, for that matter). Honda understands it's losing quite a few dollars because it lacked in this area previously. I hear rumors that they're going to begin releasing more stuff in the next few years. By more stuff, I mean clutches, brake systems, etc. I suppose they got tired of playing second fiddle.

Only Mugen compares to TRD, but Mugen is a seperate entity. Personally, I think that's ridiculously stupid considering they were founded by Honda's son and work so closely with Honda JP. I think Honda should scrap HFP and let Mugen do its thing on these shores. It'd probably cut costs of paying for their overpriced, overhyped crap anyway.

Honda did this with Jackson Racing a few years ago, I believe for the Integra and nobody really bought into it.

Actually, Honda had Mugen offerings decades ago and nobody bought into that either. So perhaps they were just ahead of their time?

yea, that's true.

But i still think that they should offer a K20 swap in their HFP catalog, LOL!

I'd totally finance that thing
