Long time lurker

Hello fellow Fitfreaks! As the title states, I've been lurking on the forums for a while and have gotten a ton of great information. I figured it's about time I introduce myself and maybe eventually contribute to the great wealth of knowledge here.
My name is Pat, and I have a Blue Sensation 2009 Sport with manual transmission. I've had the car for a few years now and still love it. It's probably my smartest vehicle purchase ever (and I've had several vehicles). I just recently started modding it, and last weekend I installed a Sprintex supercharger, a Progress rear sway bar, and finally put some 205/50/16's on it.
Just ordered some brighter headlight bulbs and yellow foglight bulbs. My future plans are coilovers, brakes/lines, red emblems, and some small improvements to the supercharger.
Eventually I'll get it cleaned up and get some decent pictures of it posted up here.

G'Day & welcome.

The Fit is an awesome car, I'd love to see some photos of the supercharger set-up.

Thanks guys. Here's a few pics for now.


This is the only picture I have so far with the supercharger in.

These were from a year ago. I had 15x7 Avanti Storm S1 wheels on it with 195/55/15 Hankook Ventus V2s at the time. Now I'm back on stock Sport wheels with 205/50/16 Sumitomo HTR P02s.

Thanks guys! I posted in here this morning with a few pics. I guess they need to be approved first since I'm new? Not sure how that process goes.

Thanks guys! Just got some red H emblems delivered today, need to get those on. Then coilovers, and eventually KTuner, injectors, & fuel pump. This was supposed to be my smart 'save money' car, but I just can't leave enough alone. I am still planning on selling my Mustang and BMW though.

Thanks vtevfit1! I bought the Sprintex kit last November, but just installed it a couple weeks ago.
