I was reading this morning about engines, I was curious if the 2016 civic turbo motor was direct injection like the fit and the difference in the compression ratio when I found the 1.5 earthdream motor specs.....

L15B1

Found in 2015-2016 3rd generation Honda Fit in North American Market

•  
  • DOHC 16 valve i-VTEC
  • Displacement: 1,496 cc
  • Bore x Stroke: 73.0 mm (2.9 in) × 89.4 mm
  • Power: 97 kW (132 PS; 130 hp) / 6,600 rpm
  • Torque: 156 N·m (115 lb·ft) / 4,600 rpm
• Honda Vezel
• Honda Fit Hybrid 2013+

If that info is correct 208 hp at the flywheel in the light body fit would be pretty quick? I would love to know if that is true specs and what is the difference.

 

Very interested to know if that's true. It would be a hell of fun riding it.

 

262lb-ft of torque? At 2600rpm and it's not a turbo? Nah man..that can't be right.

Look at this link ---> Japan Fits

Plenty of fits to look through and at their specs.

 

I can't tell if this is real Honda video!?!?

Still thats a lot of power for a FIT...
