Installed, the progress rear sway today! Feels great, only grip its the stupid hardware they send with it. It causes the springs to sit higher. Im gonna have to get new bolts.

Also have HP+ pads/SS lines/DC header on the way.

Also just found out the engine management we use for our race cars has a Application for the FIT! This will be installed and dyno tuned with in the next month or two.

Yessir!!! we have two haltech cert tuners, and we get dealer pricing. So I along with him will see how much we can squeeze out of the L15 with just bolt ons and 93

Ill be sure to take vids and all sorts of that kind of thing

If its successful, we may sell the units with a good base map for bolt ons for a good price.

The haltech is one of the best engine managements Ive seen.(I dont have TOOOO much experience with tuning however). It should do just fine with boost, hell if you have a electronic boost controller it can manipulate boost levels. The only thing im curious about is how it will handle vtec. Though im sure it does fine with many Honda Apps/base maps. Here let me paste a excerpt from their website:

The Platinum Interceptor provides tuning of fuel mixtures, ignition timing, boost levels and many other features. The Platinum Interceptor is installed using a universal type wiring loom and tuning is performed on a laptop with user friendly Interceptor software for Windows. As the Platinum Interceptor works with the factory ECU, you need only tune where necessary, maximising power whilst maintaining factory levels of economy, idle quality, cold start etc.

Performance has never been achieved so quickly, easily and affordably.

The Platinum Interceptor has been fully tested on many makes and models, with the range of supported vehicles constantly being expanded.



Best part is how cheap it is. Dont hold me two it, but I believe we will be able to sell the base unit for around 500 550. With a NA basemap for a little more

YUMMY!! I like your car. I don't know why, I think it is because you care about how it is at the track. I love that. I've always loved that. Always. Nice Evo in the back.

Yea, But in order to run the STS class i cant have that manifold legally. I was working on a stock manifold gutting it anyway. Took out that weird wall in the middle of it. Which im now thinking might be up forsale as well haha.

Might be taking it easy on the mods and just paying it off to afford my race car in the next year or so.

Though I have a new wheel setup in the works if I can make a deal with this guy.

So the Kosei's may be up forsale as well.
