His diffuser and wing are Real mugen. Dont quote me, but think they came from FITtin'. He was selling these, great guy to buy from by the way if any one else is interested.

Mugen sells that diffuser if you are interested. Get your credit card ready though.

I got the Fit cleaned up last night and looking pretty good. My package from Meguiars is on route and the plan is for a 2 day detailing job the weekend before our first show. I have a funny Fit story. This morning on my way to work a few blocks from my house there was a school bus in front of me stopped at a light and it was full of kids like Junior High age. The girls in the back of the bus notice my car and start pointing and talking. Then I can see kids all through the bus getting up to look at the car and pointing plus waving at me. I just had to smile and wave back. I passed them once we were on the highway and several are looking out the windows as I drive by some giving me thumbs up! I just thought it was too cool then one of my friends said, "Well they were probably blown away thinking why is this 50 some year old lady driving a modified Honda." I am like well gez thanks for bursting my bubble! LOL!

Almost everything is here as of this afternoon:


Oil lines and gaskets arrived today! All that is left is the FIC, which I should be getting from MNFit sometime next week.. then some injectors and a wideband!

I am going to play with the FIC for a while before going boost to see what if any power I can get out of a re-tune, some cold plugs and a hi-test blend of fuel (20% 118oct/80% 93 E0 pump gas) on an otherwise stock setup!

The NA retune I expect should make for some fun, I will be severely limited by the stock intake and exhaust pieces though. I hope to pull another 5-10 lb-ft across the board, and maybe pick up 15hp peak.

If I could do that I would be thrilled.

This is because after that is accomplished I only have to change the VE cells in the boosted region of the map!

So I can leave my cells from full vacuum (Throttle closed) all the way up to 1psi boost the same, this way out of boost or waiting to spool on either turbo I will have more get up and go then a stock Fit would. o even before seeing the turbo kick in I will be faster than a regular N/A GD, even a heavily modded N/A Fit, because I cant find any one here that have been tuned for their I/H/E mods.

I have a ton more pictures I am uploading to post comparing the TD05H-14B Mitsu turbo to the Garrett GT2554R I got as part of a deal that for convenience sake I will be running first. I'll put a few in this thread the rest will be in my thread on the FI sub-forum so I don't clutter up this one cuz everyone else has stuff to show off.

This should make for a fun turbo comparison I think.

I even have two wastegates for the GT25R one 5psi, the other 15psi, so this way I can max it out before stepping up to the 14B!
