Finally back in summer mode. And with brand new conti extreme dws 06

Seem to be even less road noise than my winter.

 

^ Lookin' good . ^

 

They arrived Tuesday afternoon at Wal-Mart . Picked them up yesterday . All manufactured 1/16 . Bagged them and placed in the shed until weather gets better .

 

Finally have time to install All-Fit Lip today,

I do everything according to the install guide and I took my time in trimming the rubber so it can bend following
lots of curve on my bumper... so it took me 4 hours from start to finish hahaha...

 

Thanks odie!

 

Put the R81's back on, and realised that back in November, the dealer sold me the wrong front wiper refill. It's a good 3 inches short.

 

I installed the today. I can't remember who recommended them but they suck. A slight tone change but no louder at all. I used the horn wiring kit from College Hills. I'll be replacing them soon.

This is what I really want:

I just bought Honda HDS HIM tools from eBay:

New for Honda HDS Him Diagnostic Tool with RS232 USB Converter Cable V3 012 030 | eBay

and

Custom Boomslang Wiring Harness to use with AEM F/IC-6 directly from Boomslang.

This Harness will have Custom Extra Features for a VTEC Solenoid Connection and User Switch harness for Dual Map Selector Switch.
I learned a lot about this 2 useful features above from SlimChriz, (member of fitfreak who also have Sprintex Supercharger)

Thanks Chris :-)

 

This is what you want, I have one on my motorcycle and it works wonders.

 

It it plug n play? In other words, will the factory wiring work without having to add in a relay?

 

Busy Day today.
Had the muffler shop do a resonator delete.
Installed Megan Racing Axleback exhaust.
Installed Progress rear sway bar.

Fingers are sore.

 

Twins! How do you like it?

 

A relay is recommended. I have put one in my Fit and wired in a relay. The Seibel horn draws a lot more power than the stock horn.

 

Hey, been busy but have some stuff to share:

- Replaced Tein STech with stock suspension, my new job requires me to travel a lot and that involves rocky & bumpy roads.
- Got me an used cargo cover which looks BNIB, this one didn't come with the hatch clips so I went and ordered them from Hondapartsunlimited. I made sure the cover is sitting where it should however I've noticed it is vibrating, is there anything I'm missing like screws or something ?
- Got my new 15" wheels, 17 where too big now that I was on stock suspension.
- Had my bumper painted, had a lot of scuff marks from when I was lowered.
- Need to get new side skirts ASAP..

 

My New Throttle Body just arrived from Bernardi Parts today,
Was taking advantage of the 5% discount sale few weeks ago...

Originally I was planning to buy Spoon Larger Throttle Body,
but then I realized that Spoon do the Core Exchange Program,
which most likely mean, they get some used Throttle Body Core from a customer,
bore it out and sell it again as Spoon Larger Throttle Body,
but that also mean, they are selling a Refurbished Used One....
and I feel it is not worth it for around $800 to $850 including shipping, and get a refurbished throttle body..... who knows how many miles that core had been driven before refurbished by Spoon...
so I decide, I rather buy a BRAND NEW One here in US and get MaxBore to bore it out for me...
I will send it to MaxBore after I port and polish my supercharger because I need to have
the Sprintex Intake Elbow Gasket Match to the larger throttle body but that same intake elbow need to undergo Port and Polish first...
yap... kinda complicated hahaha

Maxbore offer fast turn around, so if I want to , I can take out my current throttle body send it to MaxBore and it should be back in total 1 week including shipping back and forth, but I only have one car and I need the car to be ready for work anytime I need it... so the only way for me is to buy a new throttle body... oh well.
I guess I can always sell my original one here or eBay

I figure it will cost about $750 to $800 with Maxbore and brand new throttle body (Including shipping and gasket match intake elbow) so it will be almost the same as Spoon but for sure my larger throttle body start life as a brand new one

Here are the brand new throttle body from Bernardi...

 

I like it a lot, its a tad loud (for me) in the cabin, but outside I love the sound. Might pop back in the silencer, but I'll give it a week or two.

 

Oh haha true it's sorta loud in the cabin-- I don't hear it much though because I play my music loud

 

So I'm still looking for a new set of wheels, and I'm all over the place. Not sure whether I want to go 16x8, 17x7, 17x7.5, or 17x8. I kinda don't want to roll/pull my fenders but if it's the right set of wheels I'll do it. I'm torn because I want to go wider but not sure if it's worth the hassle. I know plenty of people have gone through with 8 inch, or even 9 inch wide wheels.

 

If you don't want to roll your fenders....just go 17x7.

 

Thanks for the response. I think I'm just gonna wait on it, I have to get 2 new front tires to pass inspection. I think I'll eventually just get 16x8 RPF1's and roll the fenders, using the same tires that I have now. I really want new wheels, but I guess patience is a virtue.
