Will do. Just held up on the tps right now. From what I've read on the AEM forum, we just don't use in on ours tho. (no 0-5v lead)

I needed extended studs so I'd have enough thread to safely run my BBS wheels. The wheels are so thick in the center section that stock studs weren't long enough.
Sounds like it's REALLY not worth doing the extended studs (at least the fronts, but who would do JUST the rears???) unless you're tracking the car hard. I guess inspections for some races require them as well. If you're putting spacers on that effectively shorten your studs, why not just get spacers w/ studs on them? Oh well. Guess it just depends on how far you're willing to go for that attention to detail 
Projectors from BlueBoogers. High beam is stuck on the right side... gotta figure out how to get the shield to release back. Here was the output before it got stuck.

I had a throttle controller in my 2012 Fit for about a month until it went wonky on me. It was the latest and greatest.
It sent voltages to my pedal that were out of range and sent the car into limp mode. It caused me a check engine and check VSA warning lights.
I took it off and went to the dealership were they diagnosed the problem.
Voltages out of range. No charge under warranty.
As well it would cause my throttle to stick open even when not applying gas during normal driving conditions.
I don't trust mine anymore and the vendor (all over this site) is ignoring me now.
I don't recommend this kit to anyone. Please be careful and at the first sign of trouble yank it out. Some other fit owners have never reported a problem with theirs and I hope this is the case for you if you choose to continue down this path.
Can you imagine yourself in a dangerous situation (like passing a truck) and having your car suddenly going into safe mode?
You do know that this gizmo is purely cosmetic? Pressing on the gas pedal more or pressing on the pedal less does the exact same thing? Is it really worth that kinda money to you?
Learn from my mistake and start a fund for bigger and better things that will actually help improve your Fit.
Like a Progress Sway Bar or a PRM intake.
There are some really knowledgeable people on this site. I sugest you befriend them as ask for their help first before you buy this type of item. I am new here too and I can recommend a couple if you wish. Just PM me.

I would not worry about it. If there was a major problem there would be many threads about it. Just do a good job installing it and make sure that no wires are exposed to the humidity. Hootie had one issue but it was because of the rain and humidity and he hasn't posted anymore problems.
I know of one because of broken wire from it to the ECU output having a problem.. It was repaired by soldering back together if I remember correctly.... I must admit that I am becoming a little senile and have problems with my memory.

No. Get it from Twpanson and you shouldn't have any trouble at all.
He apparently got it from A&J. Not sure what kind of TC they are selling.
I know I never had a problem with the one I got from you for as long as I had it.
