Oh and they also make me want to vacation in Costa Rica to go visit the Honda Dealer... lol

About the WR header, no real tuning of any runner lengths as remember the exmani is cast as part of the engine and just has the one outlet which runs to the upper cat which then runs to the front pipe with secondary cat. Basically WR has eliminated both cats and the piping I'm sure does also not have crude welds like factory which in turn also helps the exhaust flow. Will it make that much more power, hard to say. I know eliminating the secondary cat with the J's front pipe, I felt a small gain and this was after already having the reflash done the week or so prior.

Does the South American Fit have the shorter front end?

It's the same as the USDM Fit. Check out world Honda and you can select by country to see what other countries have. Some of it makes me jealous... Oh and the WR intake sounds too good to be true. I can't wait to see the results! BnD, your other car is gonna be sick... That's a lot of work!

Are you referring to the WR header? If so, this is not on my short-term list at the moment.

I am just about done with my Fit for now....I really just want to boost or get a reflash. My civic is my money pit for the next several months.

Yeah sorry about the intake thing. I've been looking at intakes and exhaust and I did mean header. Not on my short list either. I'm focusing on exterior Mugen stuff and a good lowering setup.

Boost, a carbon fiber hatch, and a J's racing front end conversion would be a nice way to wrap up my Fit.

@ BnD, You going for that CF hatch after all? I read biggest loser and it sounded like you weren't so sure about the advantages $/lb but it'd look great! What all is to that front you mentioned? I like the hood you did already.

Yeah, I'd probably have to see the design before I committed...esp since it would be shorter than the EF version due to the taillights. Still be interested in see one.

New idea:
Fully adjustable (toe/camber) rear axle with disc mounts! Dial in that camber son!
