Alright guys...back in my S2000 days (3 weeks ago lol) there was a company that made an intake called PRM,and I loved their intake...

So I buy my Fit and find out PRM does NOT make an intake for our cars....YET!

I recently emailed PRM and asked them about production on an intake for the Honda Fit...well they answered me today and said they are interested and if I could find someone in the Toronto area to let him know...He also needs pictures of the engine bay,im guessing with and without the stock intake there.

So yeah if anyone near Toronto is willing to let a siiiickkkk company test an intake on your car,lmk and I can hook you up with them.

Here is some of PRM's other intakes
and yes the filter element is washable k&N

This looks pretty sweet if they can route it to the fog light location! Too bad I live nowhere near there.

 

I'm not saying it's a bad product, but these look weird. I've never seen an intake like this before.

 

pretty neat design... but wouldn't the filter flow better if the filter chamber/cylinder was larger so air could come into the filter at more angles instead of just through the center of the cone?

 

wow im highly interested in buying this product. that is if im not boosted by then.

the velocity air stack on that thing is a big turn on haha

 

In the one where you can see the filter, there is so little surface area for the filter I cant see how that would do anything but decrease performance.

 

i think u shud personally take a trip up north to test the product since u brought it up, an let us all know how it goes.. weird intake but unique, i wud like to no how this goes...

 

uhh I live in Florida,I posted this to find someone in Toronto that might be interested...lets not be ridiculous now

 

bump i know we gotta have a Fit owner near Toronto

 

I'd be curious.... what is entailed? I live just west of Toronto... depending where it is in Toronto it'd be like 20-30 min drive for me

 

nah i don't like that design....it limites too much of air flow

 

I have to agree. IMO that is not a very effective design. It really limits the airflow into the intake tract.

Did you ever test this intake on a dyno with the s2k? I would bet the only gain was in the intake honk department.

 

You guys can see how much it flows just by looking at it eh? you must have a bunch of experience working with flowbenches and the like.

Its a new idea that i havent seen before. Id like to see a flow analysis or some dyno numbers. And for all the all the comment about the velocity stack, you do know that the stock box has a velocity stack in it right?

 

No you're right I can't see with just my eyes but in terms of surface area......that can be seen by the naked eye and the fact that the filter is encased in that tiny cylinder greatly reduces the filter surface area. With that design the intake is only taking in air from a focused location rather than all around.

You might as well get rid of the filter portion all together and just put an in line cotton screen filter because with that design it is basically doing the same thing.

I definitely would like to see dyno testing cause I am very skeptical but I am also completely open to eating crow if I am wrong.

 

Pm sent! Why bash something new when you have no info to back it up?

 

PRM has the worlds Fastest N/A Ford Probe...using a PRM intake.

kifu,you got pm

 

Alright well I just spoke with Gerry and to the people that are interested just give him a call to setup when you should come down...
905-939-2830
And thanks to the people in the area that have pmed me with interest,im really excited to see how the finished product looks

 

phone call made, I'm going to his shop tomorrow after work!

 

Post pics if you can,and a review too!
thanks alot kifu

 

Will do, the hour long drive home should be a pretty good first test.
