Cool Supercharged Mugen Fit!

YouTube - Mugen Honda FIT F154SC at Tokyo Auto Salon 2008






I don't care if this is a repost because someone out there hasn't seen this and I'm blown away with the entire package I'm thinking the 154 is for the hp and if so, sounds perfect to me. The one thing I don't get is the grill, the Mugen grill they offer for our car is nicer than that one but everything else is awesome! I'd take mine in Revolution Orange with black chrome wheels

I actually hadn't seen that. I don't like the front grill or fog accents, but the rest of it is great. I love that interior.

Looks sharp but they could have made it with more HP. 154 Hp is a good start but the stock B16a produced 160 hp.

I thought they just added a S/C'er to the stock motor in the Fit there I know this, I'd be just fine with 154 WITH TORQUE from the blower to match. I feel the Fit would be pretty perfect with 150/150

if the front fenders would work on the USDM/CDN fit, i'd rock those. with the silver accents, and the "intake" looking silver things on the back......kinda looks like a ford now.....

Its not bad for 6psi on a stock fit. I just though they would try to get more power but that just goes to show no after market parts. It still would be fun to drive.

Yes there is a thread on this somewhere. This car is the second Gen fit though.

i'm really not feeling the blockey yet edgey-ness look. how much do you think that thing retails at? i'm sure for the price though i'd probably just get an SI. love the retro'd lights though.

Cars like this are not released, hence my comment about the GD.

It's a Japanese tuner car- they're ALWAYS modest with their horsepower numbers. Where American companies regularly go for 800+ WHP with the Supra's, most of the Japanese tuners stick with 5-600. Sure, there are monsters over there, but companies like Mugen tend to keep it very moderate, as their stuff is made to be OEM quality, and 100% transparent when driving. I'd absolutely love it if they had more GE8 stuff over here Mark W.

And they also made about the same torque as the l15 in a stock fit. And had less weight to lug around. The torque on this thing would do worlds for the car.

Power = torque x rpms / 5252 . It would have around 126 ft.lbs of torque which is 20 more form stock and 154 Hp. The mep would be around 212 from 175 mep stock. A stock motor running at 100 percent VE would have a mep of 195. So a stock Honda is around 85 to 89 percent efficient and compare that to the old V8s that would be 70 percent or so. Taking the weight out and putting some over the wheels would really help in acceleration and traction.
