What did you do to your GK Fit today?
As for the IM... I have another one at home that I will use to see if something can be done with the bottleneck.... or who knows... even maybe manufacture a prototype using an existing K24 flowbenched and proven IM...😈😇
I guess as we all know the real limitation continues to be the neck on the intake manifold... I didn't think about cutting it off and getting to the round part. With 3D printing, might be able to significantly increase flow that reaches the runners... and with my EGR block off, could ignore that area too.

Thanks for the props!
I have been watching that IM as well as the LRPTEC one... but before making any HUGE investment in a part like that.. i wanna see how much i can squeeze out of her!!! Knowing that a fellow FIT owner made 139hp on the dyno and owns the LRPTEC intake manifold.... and has pretty much all other mods as mine....
The ltptec im
i seing this this girl in YouTube that has the im said is good here plate said THISFIT and the a saw that Bisimoto video had one in the dyno the gk5 was 198 hp it was running mods like IM cams cai catless with the exhaust pipe straight and of course ktuner if I’m able to pull 160 hp at the wheels I will be happy with that it will be a fun N/A built
Gv lip
this lip lip will only fit 2015 and 2017 gk5 without the facelift and jdm bumper I was able to pick one up but it’s to short like 1” on each side
Elkaku, that looks awesome. Can you provide the 3d file, or a dimensioned drawing? I'd like to try and make a copy and having the shape you worked out will save a bunch of time. If not, I understand. Still curious what filament it was that distorted, and how much heat caused it to happen.

You need to center the emblem brother

Really Slow... Have you seen my sticker game?
Easily 10 hp loss due to drag... I held off doing any mods for looks only for 2.5 years. With the impending engine rebuild it's time to show out a little bit...
I threw a dryer sheet in on top of the cabin air filter, a couple of days after I cleaned it and resprayed it (K&N) - K&N kit made the car smell like Crayola crayons, for lack of better description...not that I dislike the Crayola scent, but passengers might...the crayon smell takes me back to childhood
Smells better now

New Tires and Cheap Steelies
My 2015 Honda Fit EX CVT has had a few upgrades. I've been lurking on this forum for years and finally decided to make an account.
Mods:
Insight Springs replacing rear stock springs. Roughly 1.5 inch lift.
Strut spacers in the front to bring it up 1.25 inches. Had an alignment afterwards.
Cheap 14" steelies with 195/75/14 Goodyear Wrangler AT. Brought diameter up from 24" to 25.5". No rubbing issues. +35mm offset.
EBC brake rotors slotted up front with ceramic pads.
K&N filter.
HKS catback exhaust.
Hidden Hitch with trailer brake wiring done. (Towed a 400lb log splitting machine once, Hitch also saved me a bumper when someone rear-ended me.)
I installed seat extenders for both front seats to increase leg room for long trips. 3 inches makes a big difference.
Bought the Honda all season mats and trunk tray. (Great for camping and doggo)
My thoughts on setup. The Fit rides much smoother with the new rear springs and tires. I haven't had a chance to "softroad" it with the new setup, but the additional ground clearance will be a big help. I think I'm about 2 inches higher than a stock fit, but not sure. I measure from bottom of tire to bottom of fender at 27 inches in the rear and 26.5 inches up front. Maybe someone can measure the stock and let me know??? Pretty please with VTEC on top.
Future mods?
Roof Rack
Mud Flaps
Light bar
I dunno if I'll get around to those, as I've already started modding my new to me 2018 Civic EX-T (manual). I just can't leave my Hondas alone!
Exactly this i was thinking about doing to mine.... pondering about the possibility of making some kind of "downforce oriented ducts" redirecting air from the rear wheel wells and getting out through those garnish thingies.....
Very nice. I have an XM radio with a Lifetime subscription, but it seldom gets a signal. I've tried different cradles and antennas with no luck. I transferred it once, and that's all they allow. When it's not working, I listen to music on a small USB drive.
