Hey, just wondering what eveyone's target HP goal is. Mine's 110WHP. (Without doing anything crazy like an engine swap, NOS, ECU or turbo) Ideally, i'd like to get my TQ rating up there too, but that's probably not possible without doing anything crazy.

 

A humble 5-10 hp with boltons. IMO it's pointless to go all out on the l15. Money
would be better spent elsewhere

 

I think in my case I don't really have one -- I just know what I want to mod my car with, and the gains I get are what I get. Not saying I don't care about making decent power, b/c I am keeping gains in mind when I pick my parts, but I don't have a goal for hp and there's other considerations taken into account as well. That said, I wouldn't complain about a 10-15hp gain, though.

 

I'd like to swap a K24 down the road once I finally get ready to get a new car and let the fit become my project car. I'd really like to have some more umph out of the L15 but I hate the noise most bolt ons add. I ran headers and an intake on my TSX and the intake noise drove me crazy after about 6 months.

 

I just want a car that handles well and also has a little more oomph from the go pedal. I know most people wouldnt understand modifying the L15, but I think the bolt-ons help this car considerably. And I have yet to see one person swap a different motor into their Fit, from this forum, so until that happens...I dont think anyone should be talking about how much better a different engine would be...because its all talk, nobody has done it because nobody has the money. Thats probably why they bought a Fit in the first place.

 

my goal is to drop a C32B (NSX V6 2002+) in it, rear wheel conversion and go sidewayz

naw fo real...i plan just to drop as much mods as i can B4 gaining better credit and more pay then upgrading to another car even though i love the Fit...also doing as much Autox events this year. So thinking maybe most important would be to go more towards suspension...will see, but no swapping fo me...L15 power all the way baby!!!!!

 

My Goal is to pay it off! and run the little bugger into the ground.
cheers

 

amen to that

 

The Fit wasn't designed for speed, so I'm focusing on handling. I'd like to get the suspension to a point that I can cruise around and enjoy some corners. I'd also like a little more power. Without doing a swap, I'd like to hit about 130-150whp. This car isn't really a priority so that goal will be met in like 5 or 6 years probably.

 

I got an A/T . Reaching 100 WHP would be fabulous with just bolt-on since it is originaly 86WHP I beleive.
So far I have the TR1 Air Box, and the TR1 Cat-Back exhaust. That is supposed to bring it up to 94 at VTEC RPM's, but nothing for regular city driving around 2K RPM. The lightened pulley helps response at low speed but adds no real HP.
I am afraid that installing headers would add as much noise as HP... so what is there reasonably left?

I might go for a 5lbs Supercharger when the Fit is 4 years old. And hope for a miracle in the meantime.

 

Actually owning a white M/T Fit for crying out loud
