finally got around to taking some pictures





i want to get some more but in a nicer location this was my buddys place with his camera.

 

I see a dent in your Fit next to the tail light

 

ohhh snap i see it 2...how did that happen?

 

hate door dings......

 

nice VBP. looks like mine Got HFP's too and painted my intake cover.

Keep the mods goin!

 

dent i see 2.. waz up?

 

okay i get the point, i got a dent. im not sure what caused it but it showed up about two weeks after purchase, im kind of over it now, but when i get around to it my brothers got one of those door ding removers so im hoping that it will work, he has used it to get some dings out of his ed3. im thinking to try and find some sort of door molding, but when there are jackasses that dont respect new cars out there, i guess we are all at risk.

but besides all the negative, thanks for the comment on the hfp's, the dealer had them installed before i bought it and i refused to buy the car at there brice with the rims added, after they realized that they sold off the origanal alloys they gave them to me for a simple addition of 200 dollars.

total list of my modifications:
fuji sri,
sk2 catback,
5% rear 15% front tint,
hfp wheels,
dojo carbon fbr pedals.

ive got a unique shift knob on the way via fedex this week ill show you later. besides that i want to add the ipod music link and some sort of woofer, maybe some suspension mods, a strut bar or two, probably wont lower it. a dashmat, and then some sheepskin seet covers and ill be done.

 

Skunk2 F!%Kin rules! I have that also. Plus T1R intake, Mugen headers, Myth pulley, Mugen STB, NKG IX plugs, etc... etc....

We're almost twinkies.

 

reno nv, where you at, side by side pics would be unique and worthwhile.

honda headers are pretty efficiant in flow terms, besides a high flow cat conv would help your setup a bit more since most of your back end has been opened wider, but you almost sound like your on your way to turbo with that list of mods, besides the fact that you probably spent too much for the mugen header to give it up for the turbo manifold. also that youve already got a really nice intake. i almost got the t1r because of the cowl facter, having that gap of air to grap at feels good i can imagine, but i can only imagine that the real numbers of difference are minimal between any gains made by a intake kit on a 1.5 liter. i like intakes for the throttle responce mostly.

also heads up for those who like to add ud pulleys, they can throw off balance in your pulley system, causing over time small but compounding damaged to the drives. not to mention that over or undersized lightened pulleys will effect your compressor. not to say that i have never done this myself. and in most cases youll be fine but its just a warning.

 

I got the t1r test pipe but took it off after a day. Lost SOOOO much low end and it changed my nice low grumble of the skunk2 into a high pitched mega fart can!

As for pulleys. The fit is balanced internally so no issues there. Also the myth pulley is the same size as stock and dampened. Just lighter.

Edit: T1R intake was dyno proven to add 6 or so HP and i think close to 10 ft lbs of torque.

 

the test pipe removes the cat right?
im not sure thats legal in my area.
the officers sometimes regulate decibal range as well so good choice on removal.

the t1r gains where those before or after vtec rpm range?
im guessing after.

cool tidbit on the internally balenced. sounds like a decent mod now, with my previous car i had a lightened smaller pulley added, gained higher rpm power, but lost the potential of my ac.

but with the right size weight, you can even see gains in ac compression, not to mention hp gains, probably form 8-15 hp added.

my last 2 liter with under drive pulley gained about 14hp so i can see the little mighty getting close to the same.

 

pulley was dynoed at around 6-7 hp but torque was over 10-12 ft lbs. Hp increased and TQ decreased as RPM's increased.

Yes test pipe removed the Cat.

I'm waiting on rear sway bar from progress and custom motor mounts from innovative.

 

low end torque is always good.

why the motor mounts?

 

get more power to the ground! Less engine/tranny movement = better shifting, throttle response, no wheel hop.
