Yes ELPAPAS.... the S2K TB IS to big for the stock engine... I initially used that one because it was gifted to me to measure the bolt pattern since a lot of the electronic TB's use that same pattern and gasket....but i then swapped it for the one I am using right now... the GMA0A that comes from a 05+ CR-V

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...😈😇

something like this?

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....

Lrptec

I am trying to buy one now but I am not getting good comms from their fb site. Starting to think the rzcrew one might be better since I'm looking for top end power. It has shorter runners...

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.

Little bit of bling


threw on the RS badge, red emblem, and a tape on carbon fiber looking diffuser... they're not crooked, it's just the camera angle...

Distance from edge

I opted for same distance from the edge as the fit emblem, but I haven't seen an RS in the wild so...

Bumper air release

Also hogged these out. I know somebody could do better, it's not getting entered into car shows...

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.
