On a serious note do you feel any difference with the strut bar ?
If you'd like to sell the intake I would be interested in taking it off of your hands.

Lol the car did have some rpf1 at some point but my pal took it back. I guess he realized how much they cost him. Car also have Philips LED high low and fog lights. Interior led bulbs. Anyone have good suggestions on led plate bulb?
i have never really driven the car without the strut bar but I doubt it will make a difference since it doesn’t really bolt straight to the towers.

I will put the original air box back in and see if I can feel anything.

Hey folks,
Sorry if this is the wrong place to ask this, but does anyone have an information about the GK Sport trim exterior body trims (ie Front Lip spoiler, Rear Diffuser, etc). I originally wanted to purchase a 19' Fit Sport, but the my local dealer sold the last one they had on the lot a week before I purchased mine, so i kind of settled for the EX trim they had. On the test drive, I mentioned to the dealer that I wanted the Sport trim and he mentioned I could probably just purchase those things and slap em' on the car if I wanted the Sport look. I've been searching online and i can't seem to find them, that or I'm not sure if it's the right stuff... I did see a Sport rear diffuser on EBay a week ago, but has hence been sold...
Again, I apologize if this isn't the right place to put this, but I need help.

I was surprised how much better turn in response I gained from a front strut bar. I have no track time in this car.

I do have track times on a 2000 Integra and 2003 Protégé 5 with front and rear strut bars. They made a difference in the Integra. A rear bar made no difference in the Protege5 to me.

Does that rear spoiler help keep the crap off the rear window and hatch?

Spoon Filter

Replaced the super restrictive stock filter with a nice and breathable Spoon Filter. I can hear more intake noise and yes I can feel the placebo HP.

Placebo HP is fantastic! There's nothing like it! Worth every penny spent!

Well I didn't have the most fun day with my Fit today. We had a huge storm blow through New Jersey last night (very isolated but with gusts up to 60mph). Lots of trees down and whatnot, but nothing catastrophic.... except some branches got to my Fit. I bought it a month ago 😥

I'm gonna have to look into what clips to buy to refix this sealing on the windshield, but the dent I'm half tempted to get fixed. It's just too new lol

I added air to all the tires including the spare. It's suddenly fall here so the drop in temperatures cause the tire pressure to go down. The Odyssey threw the tpms light so I added air to all its tires and spare. So while I had the compressor out I topped up the fit to 35 psi all around and 60 psi too the spare. The spare was fun to 35 psi haha.

Also charged up the portable battery jump pack.

What was your oil change interval you use (miles, time/miles, maintenance indicator % point?)?

I commute 175 miles a day, so M-F alone I can easily rack up 875-900 miles. For the sake of keeping things simple, lets just say I drive 1k a week or 4k per month. That said, my oil changes are frequent and come more often than most.

7500 OCI = 30% MM
10k OCI = 15% MM
12500 OCI = negative 92 miles

(moving forward, sticking with 10k oci's)
