I would highly recommend it man. He's the only person I would ever let tune my car. He won't let you know it, but he is a genius when it comes to tuning. He should own his own shop.

 

yeah i was thinking doing the same thing but i was like the hell with it... my car aint a show car lol
but here's a video of what the minivan sounds like
YouTube - K24 frank Fit... low rev

 

sex to my ears!

in for the vtaaaakk pull sound clip

 

soon when its nice out...

 

what size exhaust u running? im thinking of going with 3inch

 

I personally will be going custom aluminum 3" all the way back from the 3" collector on the header. I will need to muffle it so i will put one of those "in line" mufflers in the space where resonator go. just have a clean straight pipe coming out the rear. maybe even go through the rear bumper like J's fit is. sex

 

im actually running a full 3inch exhaust lol... dynomax with 2 3inch resonators

 

wow that was with two resonators? damn I was thinking of running one resonator

 

lol yeah the muffler is the other resonator =P lmao

 

oh, lol ok. I thought that was two resonators and the muffler. God I wish my shit would get here so I can get this swap started

 

lol speacking of that, i was thinking of doing that but i was afraid that i was going to jock someone idea
nah... yeah man hopefully this gives you some motivation for the summer =]

 

what did you guys do for a intake?

 

mine is a silicone with a 3inch injen air filter...

 

hope you guys dont mind, im every now and then going to update my first post on page one with updates/progress on my swap

 

thats the purpose of this thread =P lol... cant wait see other k fits up on here whoohooo

 

did a dyno pull today, this was on a base map untuned, gona do custom cai and redo the exhaust then go back and have it tuned, just wanted to have numbers now so i can compare it to later on, should do 220-230hp , today i made 195hp and 160tq, enjoy

How driveable do you think it will be with the torque steering at that power level?

 

if you run a 3inch exhaust and a better headers you'll definte be in the 200+ 190+ wtrq but not bad man

 

This is an exciting thread! Hats off to you guys!


There's a lot of things that affect torque steer, actual engine output is only one of them.

I manage just fine with roughly double that at the ground on my 2.0T FWD

Wheel hop on the other hand proved a hardier foe.

 

with the fit having the electric power steering it was very hard to notice any torque steer, ive had a eg k20 with no power steering, eg coupe k20 with power steering, the fit is best so far, getting traction in 1st and 2nd is another story lol, but thats expected from modding any car.
