My First Strip Teaser :)

I seriously don't understand why anyone would bother trying to get more HP/TQ out of these cars. Especially N/A.
I guess I'm one of the very few who actually enjoys having a 30+MPG 'around town' car.

I plan to see how my Fit does to and from Vancouver for mileage. I don't think I will be seeing a signfigant drop to be honest.
Thanks to everybody for your comments I can take you Calgary guys out for a spin at our late April meet!

With all my mods I manage 33-35mpg city every tank.
I really want to see dynos with AFR's with this thing on. Not the dynos supplied by WR. I want real dynos from real people. Not the company.
Seeing the intake mani now, it looks kinda ugly. Why didnt they make it smooth at all? I see some pipes with a rectangle on them.

Im willing to bet the car will get better MPG with the intake mani; because its going to run lean.

Im just saying the top half could have looked a little smoother.

Yea I agree with Mx6 the finish could have been a little more smoother there are other aftermarket manifold's that do come a little nicer for the price... but as he said maybe the pics dont do it justice....
but man!!!! i wanted to be the first to get the mani, or the race headers but two freakers beat me too it... Im gonna try and see if i can their race header soon though

Damn you guys are really putting the pressure on me!!
Right now my car has a date with JDmish to have my new brake pads & T1R brake lines put in (oh maybe if weather permits I will through on the summer tires) on April 12. I was going to do the manifold at the same time, but Weapon-R recommends a fuel tune for this product so I am just going to wait until the following weekend when I am down in Vancouver having other stuff put into the car to have it installed.
You are supposed to get some reasonable gains in an NA setup on this car with the manifold. Plus it looks so damn cool, it will match my mirror chrome Fujita intake
The welds are actually pretty smooth on this manifold, it is hard to get an appreciation for it without seeing it up close. It does have kind of a rugged look to it, but once it is actually installed onto the engine I am sure it is going to stand out as something special.

Maybe its just me, but what's the point of the Intake Manifold? especially on N/A?
True, but theres a lot of aftermarket manifolds that are WAY nicer and still perform the same. Are they offered for the Fit? No

Are you going high compression? or at least FI? otherwise I would advise against a mod like this. If those runners are longer, or wider, you're gonna end up just raising your rev limit higher to yield gains. Its the sucking through a big straw analogy that I'm sure you've heard before. If you're not raising your compression or supplying your motor with a source of sucking (high compression) or blowing (turbo) then theres really no gain.
Theres a reason mods go i/h/e/c and so on. I don't mean to denounce this mod, it looks great. But coming from modding ls-vtec and boosted d16's.. I'm fairly certain its not gonna yield favorable gains. But I don't know your ultimate plan for your motor and I didn't check to see what you're already running.
