2013 Taffy Fit Build - Slow and Steady

Hello to all my fellow Fit owners. I thought I would make a build thread for my 2013 taffeta white fit sport 5spd. My name is Brandon and I have been working with cars for a good while and this is my first brand new car. This is going to be a slow build thread as I am not planning on doing to much to it right away. I have owned the fit for say 5 or so months and I am still getting used to it. I would say it is the largest car I have owned. I am more acquainted with miatas, G20s, and other hondas, these are the vehicles I used to own. My goal for the fit is to make it handle better and more fun for spirited driving.

What I have done so far:

Straight pipe with stock tip in place of stock axle back.

The plans:

Function and Form Type 2's
Progress rear sway bar
15in Enkei RPF1's
2000 civic si wheels for daily driving
Dual tip blast pipes in place of the current straight pipe and may remove the resonator.
*Some things I have not really decided on but those are the main plans as of now.

Do you have a soundclip of the exhaust?

I used too but I deleted it off my phone, I had this done for $65 at a mom and pop shop and it is the best sounding axleback you can put on a GE8 for the price. Yeah it may not be stainless steel but you could paint it so it does not rust. It is deep, throaty, girggles, and sounds great when in high rpms. It is quiet while driving and does not produce any droning noise when decelerating. I like it since it is cheap and next year I am going to have a custom one made so this will be for sale next spring.

Pretty stoked, a really awesome deal came up on some 15*7 +36 949 racing 6UL's with tires that are pretty much shot. Most likely picking them up tomorrow and they come with 949 racing lug nuts and valve stems. I can not wait to put them on in the spring with the coilovers. Just a small update.
