*** If you stumble onto this page, I try to keep the mod list as fresh as possible... ***

OK, so quick update, I have owned my Fit for 4 years this month. It went from my daily driver to my HPDE car. I have a fully built L15B1 motor, and was going for the N/A world record. Unfortunately, I switched goals and am fully pushing to Global Time Attack. At this point, I am preparing to boost the engine, finish the roll cage, install all safety equipment, upgrade brakes, suspension, tires, and build carbon fiber aero. Then shakedown runs and tune. I have a Link ECU which supports direct injection and boost. I have a few folks who are helping me build the car, namely Hotboii Factory in San Antonio owned by Josh Brown. I am hoping to be in a Grid Life event in August so we will see.

Goal is 505 Crank Horsepower @ 2,000 lbs, same as my Z06, just half a ton lighter!

My second time to Spring Mountain. Requested an instructor again, at least for day 1. Then I drop off 180 lbs of ballast and watch out! I got the ktuner v2 in the mail and I'm wondering if I should do a baseline run with the stock tune. I've done a lot of mods since May, and plan on a lot more. Maybe I should just go straight to the canned tune???

 

This is due for some updates! :P

 

Here is the track beast with my shitty wrap! Good times! More fits below!!!

 

Great looking car! Yes, for updates.

 

I've moved to Southern Maryland so we're practically neighbors, well v. Las Vegas where I was...

 

Nice build! What are your thoughts on the BC DS coilovers?

 

They're pretty good. A friend of mine is trying to get me to switch to godspeed. We'll see...
