From scion to honda

Hey guys

I'm super stoked to say that I just got a 2012 Honda Fit which is my first Honda! I had a scion tC before that I had worked on myself

What are some good recommendations for some must need first mods for the fit?

i also had a scion tc fully built motor and switched to the fit. i would have to say that suggestions would depend on what you are going for and personally i am going for looks. but it is all in what you like. hope you like it

My first few recommended mods would be intake and getting rid of the stock muffler.

run 91 octane or higher, our ecu's have a pretty intelligent ignition/knock system at play!

Filling your engine/tranny mounts will make a large difference if you drive spirited often.

Almost all available lowering springs tighten up the ride quite a bit and make the car much mroe fun.

Toss in a rear sway bar like Cusco, Ultra Racing, or Progress (cheapest and awesome) and you have a serious corner carver that still gets over 30mpg easily even when having fun.
