That is so the level I wish I could be at right now. I tell myself the last thing I need is HONDATA and the car is done.

I got it from aj racing at a good price. I'm so happy with how much it is teaching me reading over these datalogs. Now I just need more airflow.

Fit died while at a stop light, shuddered and didn't go above 35 mph without shaking even more.

I guess I'll stop postponing that coil pack order, lol.

Pro tip: don't buy aftermarket coils!

Dumped 260 on Hitachi coils and NGK sparks.
All the money for mods

Sometimes I hate the Fit.

Yellow Fog lights, black fog light housing, color matched eyelids, new rims and tires (Enkei GF-1 powder coated hyper black 17x7 +42 with Falken 205/40 17), rear garnish, and Osram night breakers on the way. My carbon wing would be on if I could figure out how to install the damn thing! Things to be added before the end of April - Air Suspension, White face gauges, semi air horn, EP3 axleback, JDM visors, Carbon wing, and carbon steering wheel inserts.

Broke my sway bar linkage yesterday racing. Good thing I had a spare, although I will be getting another tire later this week.

Wheel spacers!!!

The pressure was strong that the linkage snapped causing the coilover to loosen from the bottom perch. This rotated the coilover making the bolt end go into the tire. Happened on the way back to the track. So 4 runs plus the drive home at 80mph rubbing. Lame!

I jumped the gun before doing some research on the forum but do the Ik22 plugs make a but of difference?

I put some IK20's in a few weeks ago replacing the OE long life Iridium to the power Iridium. The car feels smoother but no that I just bought my hondata I'm wondering if it will cause any issues.

Oh gotcha... never had that happen to me. But I also have the sway bar endlinks from the Ksport kit.

Oh yes so did I but I got lazy. I really should have dial in things a bit better. I have one stock and one k Sport one in. It's luck I did because I had the K Sport one to low. So it actually rubbed on the axle here and there. So when I replaced it yesterday I measured it to the other side. So it made some horrible noises last night and a little today. So I dialed it today and it I can feel the difference. Lesson learned. Take the extra time to dial your shit in like a pro.

I was running the ik22's before so putting in a fresh set didnt make that big of a difference. When I switched to ik22 from the stock plugs I think it idled smoother and accelerated quicker.
