ive checked all around the net and even looked at the poster that was sticked to my car's window when i bought it but still couldnt find it. does anybody know the max speed of the honda fit sport?

 

umm yeah about 107 so far on an slight upgrade hill against wind 2am in the mornin 4 lane highway.

 

i wonder why the speedometer goes to 140. i wanna reach top speed but my town is full of cops. and too risky cuz of high insurance and stuff.

 

its 115. i tried to keep up with a Vette and a Porsche on I10 between Baton Rouge and Lafayette. And it stopped pulling at 115

 

Don't do it on public roads. Get signed up for an HPDE in your area on a local roadcourse with a very very long straightaway.

 

For sure do it on the track (saw your other post, thats good).

I think the main benefit of having a speedo that registers 120-140 is that at highway speeds, the needle points more or less straight up and is quicker to check your speed.

 

I've hit 125 mph!

 

a lotta cars have speedos that go up to speeds the car can't normally reach.

 

i've hit 243km/h (150MPH) using a TURBO @11PSI (using external SPEEDO blitz sbc i-color)

 

How do you find a local roadcourse? I cannot find anyone who knows where one is in my state (Mississippi.) I can't even find a paved oval.

 

I've gotta ask...how long does it take to get to 125? I have no question it can do it...but I'll bet you eat up a lot of ground getting to that speed! That is what is nice about a 400hp car...doesn't take much ground (distance) to get up to speed, and then bring it right back down. The Fit would certainly have a longer exposure time to higher speeds...just hope that deer or car, doesn't decide to jump out in front during a run!

I hit 115 mph one night. I was amazed that the car did not have any vibrations or other strange noises. I would have tried to go faster but I was on the freeway at 3am and got scared. My '88 Civic Hatchback would whine and vibrate from 85- 110 mph.

 

man 120mph all day only mod air intake

 

shit son... yeah i think fastest i've gone is like 115 and that was on a long stretch of highway. i only have an aem intake and seriously after putting that thing on it turned my fit into a beast, lol. Adding an intake is a good choice for the fit. side note: anyone know which exhaust has the best power gains for the fit?

 

i heard adding the axelback gains 5hp so im guessing a catback would be around 10hp i just wanna know which exhaust is not gonna make my car sound like every civic in the united states like a lawn mower

 

yeah hopefully i wont turn my car into a rice burner by adding an exhaust. i think the fits engine tho responds good to bolt ons as to what i've seen with the intake so far.

 

hey ricepuddin, hows the 10 west out of lafayette? it used to be the bumpiest road I ever drove on.

 

aj racing's fit with intake, cat-back exhaust & pulley dyno'd 10whp gain, i think your numbers are bit too high. i'd be surprised if you get over 2 whp with just axle back

 

err bolt-on mods aren't really gonna help...I would think the main limiter on the Fit would be gearing...when I was at 109 the RPMs were around 5300K! puppy just needs another gear.
