^been there before when I first got the fit... then I lost interest and went with the "more fun" part... "driving like I mean it"

just re-seat everything, tighten the connectors properly and reset the ecu... also check that the prm's end pipes are not bent.

Ive always calculated it at the pump myself and its always within .5 mpg. Maybe they got it right on the 2012 models.

could be or could be not but I was waiting a long time for the official release on "this" thing.

on another note... I'm also jumping on a partial sponsorship from a sweet Japanese company

Well, yesterday I finally got the recall work done on my '09 Fit. Seems to be running fine afterwards with no issues.

But I think they updated the computer for that MPG issue (showing higher MPG than actual) because it's now reading 41 MPG instead of 46 MPG

Maybe I should pick one up. It does seem to be one of the cheaper exhausts out there. Any drone on the highway?

Got mine about a wk ago. Was surprised at the Polish postage. Doesn't say anywhere on their site where they are located, I just guessed from the estimated shipping times that they were in Europe somewhere. What material/color combo did you get?

Why would they be made in Japan?

Mine was made about 10 minutes from me.

My upholsterer made it for me. Much better quality regardless of how good "shiftstyle" is.
