good way at looking at it.

it still bugs me that the old kit had a base dyno, and then an injectors-h/e dyno with a cat delete, and that we were originally told that the injectors would work with the cat as long as we had exhaust/header mods.

seriouss..
i have an idea, they should put out a list of what mods improve the kwsc, and which one hurt it or decrease hp.
like which brands of headers, b-pipes, etc.. increase hp.
that sure would help me alot
although that would cost alot of time and money haha

def good gains over stock...but basically all the bolt ons you listed gave you 3hp more over a fit with JUST the base kit.

the injectors should fix that...i just dislike the fact that you have to remove the cat now.

Thats what I'm saying. It seems to me you can get more torque and power going different routes. But that is just my opinion. I've always preferred superchargers over swaps or turbo but I'm on the edge with the Fit. I don't want to turn this thread into a debate because there are enough of those already lol. I look forward to seeing some videos and dyno charts of some KWSC Fits

And on another note, its nice to see a company make this product for us Fit owners. Thank you Oscar Jr.

My best educated guess based on phone conversations with Oscar Jr. is that the kits were tuned with long term reliability in mind. The potential of the rotrex is pretty insane with the video of the Skunk2/KraftWerks Fit vs. the BMW M5 immediately coming to mind.

i think a lot of people are on the fence with this kit or turbo. i believe in the potential that this kit has. give it some time.

Wave, what are you running for a exhaust set up? I'm realy interested to see what number you have after the injector upgrade. Also with the injector upgrade will you also be able to run a intake manifold wiht out going lean?

currently:J's Racing HeaderJ's Racing B-PipeJ's Racing or Apex WSII axle back(depends on my mood)as soon as the upgraded injectors arrive my Megan Racing testpipe is going back in.I have no plans to go with any further upgrades after this, unless KraftWerks has something big up their sleeves in the future for us. I believe I'm as far as I want to go with this platform and I'm already VERY happy with what my car has become.

OK cool, im just so unsure if I want to do a test-pipe yet. I'm afraid the car is going to be to loud with it. I am running the Spoon B-pipe that has a resonator in it so it will most likely be quieter then your set up.
