New GE8 owner

What's up everyone, I just purchased my first Honda Fit the other day, it's a 2009 Honda Fit Sport. Not new to Honda's, just been out of one for a while playing with E36 BMW's. No matter what happens, I always end up going back to a Honda. Must be the love.

Thanks, I'm already pretty happy with my purchase decision, I love getting a full tank of gas for just $20 instead of only getting a quarter tank in my AWD Ford Escape that I traded for it. Read through the forum for a few days before registering as a member, after joining I've been reading more and getting a lot of really cool DIY ideas from other members.

Welcome & Congrats!

Welcome to the forum. Is it an auto or stick? And as we say around here: Show us your Fit!

So, I got some parts in today that I ordered. Waiting on 1 more to show up than I'll be starting the DIY SRI using the ideas found in other threads. My breather filter showed up today, just waiting in my air filter to get here so I can get started. I will post updates as new parts arrive and as I get them installed.

Completed my DIY intake yesterday. I might add more piping to it though. It's just kinda hanging out with no support.

Thanks, I'm loving it so far. I love on gravel roads which are super fun to drive it on. It handles that soft loose gravel very well, feels like it would make a decent rally car if it had more power.

Thanks. She's got some minor imperfections, the side skirt on the drivers side is coming off in the middle. Haven't really looked at it yet, is there clips that hold it in place or is it double sided tape
