Hello from Saint Louis

Hey all, been lurking on here for a few months but finally made an account to seek help with a mystery mileage issue I'm having. That's for another thread though, just wanted to introduce myself and my Fit.

I work in IT by day, and do concert photography by night. Looking to get into autocross, and do some racing photos during my off-heats. Not really trying to make a beast out of my Fit, but I do want to do a few basic upgrades to get the most out of it.

My Fit:
2010 USDM GE8
1.5L SOHC i-VTEC
5-speed Manual
Only mods so far are a high-flow air filter and a rear seat delete, but I plan on upgrading brakes and wheels next, then replacing the intake manifold and adding a CAI. Might do exhaust headers after, or maybe put it on coilovers first, haven't planned that far down the road yet.

I enjoy the work, but be mindful of what employer you choose. I support a bunch of lawyers, and they're fucking insufferable.

Welcome! I'm from the STL area too. I was in IT for quite a few years. Got totally burnt out and am taking some time off (it's already been a year though... lol). I picked up a '13 Fit and have been doing courier work with it. I've already put 50k on it in under a year and this forum has been invaluable to me for maintence and other info.
