Hello, new to this site but not to the fit. I was in search of a dd due to the fact that my truck was costing $100 a day. Purchased this 07 fit to help on gas.

is this jdmchris' old car?

Also, the exhaust looks long because its a USDM exhaust mated with JDM rear bumper.

99% sure this is jdmchris' old car....which explains the user name.

Yes, mike410b. This is Chris’s old car. I figured since my name is the same and I have it, might as well keep the username close.

I usually find cars with tinted windows to look better, but yours is one that looks fantastic without dark tint.

Yes, mike410b . This GD has a long journey ahead. Somewhat disappointing to begin with. Going from a track car to a stock commuter. My son wants to race it, so once my other builds are complete this will be gutted and overhauled. Much to come.

Hello and welcome! I thought that car was familiar at a quick glance.

Really now? Does anyone have dibs on the Kraftwerk's kit? If not, I might know of a good home for it. =)

No dibs as of yet. I’ll be posting it once I work out all the STOCK bugs.

Right on!

If you wouldn't mind once its off... Maybe have a company take measurements and duplicate the hardware for it as well as see if there is any markings to ID what the automatic belt tensioner came off of. There's still a good demand for those kits and I need another tensioner for mine. ^.^

Once everything is off I’ll measure everything with pics. I can duplicate these parts. Brackets, piping and hardware is easy. The reflash is where I lack knowledge.

That would be awesome if you could when the time comes!

We have access to Hondata and can either use the Kraftwerks base tune or make a tune from scratch like I did. That's the easy part of the supercharging equation. =)
