YouTube - HKS Bolt on Turbo Kit for GE8 /GE6 JAZZ FIT

Is this real? I found this during my frequent searches for new parts.

 

it looks like a legitimate HKS kit but its still under the prototype phase.

 

That is exciting a little extra power is always nice!

 

I saw the post date from hks was 4/22/10. hopefully they have gotten the ball rolling and will be on american market soon. also if you look at the pics of the turbo installed you can see how they had like no room to work with and part of it was sticking out of the hood..

 

Almost stopped by the ATM machine to see how much money I have after reading this title off my phone... Stop teasing!!! lol

 

finally!! after hearing about the k20 swap costing around $33-55g's to swap...im like forget it (i know it could be less than that..but still. I know its gonna be an arm & a leg). can't wait for this to happen.

 

its alot cheaper then that. but your right.. $3500-3000 is alot more manageable

 

Another turbo for JDM that will never be released in the US. Also, why only 19hp? I could blow a leaf blower into the fit and get that :/

 

it says stock fuel system which is good because it makes it simple. and explains the the gains you see.. and even if a leaf blower could supply that much compressed air into the engine, where would the fuel be to burn it? that might be the limitations of the stock fuel system.. it can only supply so much gas to burn that extra air. (this is also why i get so upset when people think Intake and Exhaust gives such a huge power gain.. but where is all this extra fuel and air being supplied to make the power? on this car iam going to be different.. if i go boosted, i will have the quietest muffler on.. to prove that power is not associated with loudness)

so for example: if you only had a lot of compressed air, you would be lean. And if you only had a lot of fuel, it would be run rich. You would have to have both for the correct explosion.

iam sure if they would have fuel injectors and fuel pump rail that would output twice the fuel of what stock could feed, we could see like a 2x gain, but its all stock.. Which is actually kinda cool.. because the last boosted kit i purchased came with a whole new fuel system which actually handled 2x fuel injector, and 2x fuel rails and 2x fuel pump... so my gas was literally being 2x consumed. This way iam sure the fit would still have its nice economic MPG.

i personally like it.. but iam kinda wondering what kind of modifications need to be done to get that intercooler on, was that bumper hacked up?
