My boosed Fit
Very clean!
And holy crap those charge pipes look like straws! I'm sure they get the job done though.
Have you considered maybe a Water/Air Intercooler? They are roughly the same size, and you could trunk mount the pump and reservoir! Siliconeintakes.com sells reasonable and effective PWR barrel style and other W/A IC's. What sort of compressor bypass valve do they use on the KW kit, if any?
Having an Air-Air IC in the engine bay, top mounted no less, has gotta hurt efficiency to some tangible degree.
Is that a triple gauge pod on the dash?

Yes it is a triple gauge pod on the dash. I got AEM gauges. Air/fuel Ration, Boost, Oil pressure.
I love your car bro. Everything looks so clean. I want to go the same route kwsc intercooler upgrade.
Your paint looks very clean good job and those wheels are perfect for the car. Keep it clean! love it

I have not put any thought into a Water/Air Intercooler. Im only one 5psi and the air/air one has dropped temps about 10+ degrees. I dont really know what kind I just know it recirculates it back into the system.

Sorry I always have a bunch of questions!
What AFRs do you see under full boost/WOT conditions?
. After last years winter they started leaking. Im going to have to swap the stock lights back in and see if I can seal them up better.

I have the same kit, A/T 5psi w/ intercooler. This top mounted air-to-air intercooler is actually VERY efficient. After I got it my temps are on average 30-40F lower than it used to be. And I already run with my hood raked to let hot air out... basically I'm pretty much always at 100-120F intake temps, never higher unless I'm sitting still. Used to go up to 150-160 average and sometimes over 200F if the weather was in the 90's and driving moderately hard/uphill. Recently there was a heat wave in southern CA where it was 110 degrees where I live - but driving around at the time I never saw temps go over 140 degrees, even with hard driving. Believe me, I wasn't expecting such a drastic change but I'm quite happy with the purchase.

Funny we are so picky with the comments. I was thinking the same thing about the carpet and headlights. But i mean dam this Fit has so much going on for it and so much money and sweat went into these mods. Great job on her in my book. You have taken it a long way from the stock form. And make me feel like my Fit is naked in comparison
He mounted it to the car with two suction cups on the roof. If your really interested in how he does rig shots here is a link How TYC does his RIG SHOTS! - Canon Digital Photography Forums
