can't wait to see detailed pics of the kit on the car!
#282
Can't wait for this to come out. Good to see JR back in the game. Trying to decide betweent this and the T1R Kit.
#283
I feel like I am waiting for christmas and there is three different santas to choose from, all with different gifts. After the latest posts for the Hasport mounts, it sounds like JR was right behind the k20 Hasport Fit in times. It definity sounds like a competitive playing field right now.
This sounds like a comparison test for Sport Compact Car Mag to do, they need something cool to do lately.

I just went ahead and left that on their message board as an idea.

This might be a little large, sorry 56k users.
But here is the Fit at Redline Time Attack.
More pics to come...

What kind of tires are you guys running? I didn't realize you were running the stock rims either. Interesting.
#286
For the Time Attack and threat of rain, we had two sets of wheels and tires. We put our Falken Azenis on the stock wheels, and the RA1's on the Enkei RPF1 wheels.

RA1's That's what I bought for the track , and have Falken Ziex for daily use because couln't find the azenis locally .
I forgot..... both on the konig heliums ( I switch them) because I am too broke to keep the originals (SOLD)

The AJ-Racing kit will also be a great addition to comparison tests between the current Fit options. Three different attitudes: the Hasport K20 Fit, AJ-Racing Turbo Fit, and Jackson Racing Supercharged Fit! And now that the Manufacturers have had more engineering time with them, I expect a great battle!
I have News I will post tonight!
Thanks everyone!

Don't forget about the guys in the shadows with one offs, like the Twinscrew Supercharged Fit I have in the works!

so how much is the a/t 5psi supercharger going to cost us?
#290
When will the kit be available srry but I can't wait for it been saving I'm so excited for boost!
#291
Check out HCI this month, with a tech article on our Honda Fit supercharger kit. The display engine in these images has intake piping NOT used in production.
More updates and images to come guys! Sorry for the wait!

Looks good, Where can i get that magazine. and do you have to take out the engine to install or can you do it on just a lift?
#294
JRSC where is the massive pic frenzy of the headers/swap and all? You promised!...............
#295
I got the HCI mag this morning. Have not looked at it yet but tonight i will try to take pics of the pages and put em up.
#296
TKS Man! Looks good I assume? Are you waiting for the A/T kit? I was thinking about going with the SC then do the K swap when that's available and sell off my SC kit..... Still not sure.....
#297
I would love to do it. Still debating.
#298
somewhere in this thread Oscar said he will eventually be offering an intercooler but as an add-on. To my knowledge there are plenty of cars that come with turbo or SC from the factory with no intercooler. I'm sure Oscar has done enough R&D to know if it is required or not.
#299
I did read the specs. Jackson explains that the SC does not create heat like turbo would, but that does not mean that it will not create some heat. If you put any type of FI on any engine it will create some additional heat. High or low temps that all depends on the set up.
Yes, it is safe to run without an intercooler, especially with the new Rotrex unit. Obviously, cool air is what everyone wants going into their engine, and so we will have an intercooler option. But the intercooler is not a necessity. We have not yet ran an intercooler at any track events, so we could prove the kit reliability without the use intercooling.
This last summer we had our 10 PSI kit non-intercooled, to see the how well the Rotrex worked in the heat. Our Fit kit, at a constant 4000 RPM load on the dyno in over 100F degree outside temperatures, saw IAT sensor temps of 150F degrees. That is extremely good!
For a reference, a typical Eaton Roots unit at 10 PSI would be hovering near 300F temperature; on a normal day!
So to answer your question, forced induction does not always mean an intercooler is necessary.

150F degrees on a 100 degree day with 10psi of boost?? That is pretty darn impressive as I would imagine the compressor alone getting that hot sitting near the exhaust manifold.
Good work!

Good work!
