Turbo Fit + Go Kart Track... Fun!

4psi greddy kit on stock drivetrain... first time out shakedown before a track event this sunday!

First time out, getting used to turbo lag and new powerband (fighting wheelspin)

Adam's Go Kart Track: Honda Fit following STI - YouTube

Second time out, trying for the best time! (oops trail brake oversteer at the start)

Seem like lots of fun. What damage did you get on the turn with the tires?

What turbo/manifold/tuning hardware did you go with?

Tune it yourself?

Track looks like fun. Congrats on the new setup and quick turn around time!

lol I have rubber marks all over my door and side skirt

I ended up just getting the Greddy bolt on kit so I have the Emanage Ultimate. It's still a little slow for me with the base tune, so I'm going to find a test pipe and retune it soon. I want to try and stay at 4psi so I don't need to install a blow off valve and injectors. Don't be mad at me! It was on sale for $1500! lmao

Best part was the STI speeding off on the straight-aways... must've been embarrased.

Nice! You reeled in an STI. From what I can gather, that is a respectable lap time there too.
