HKS is smokin rocks!

The only thing that provides sucking is the price. They must have a 10x mark-up on these.

Suction Kit - $275


Race suction kit - $740

Those are also got the JDM Fit. Not sure if its fits the US Fit.
Theres plenty of intakes for the US Fit that are cheaper and just as legit as HKS.

Check out A-JRacing in the vendor section.

I'm not all up into car tuning but there is no way on God's green earth that a ~2.5 foot piece of tube with a couple bends and a filter is worth 640 dollars, let alone 740.

A sucker (no pun intended ) born every minute I guess.

I would like to see dyno numbers on the race kit. It looks cool, but no means $700 cool. I would also like 2 hear it but I don't know if any body would waste the money for 5 ponies.

That race version seem's like the air would have to travel pretty far and would warm a bit before it made it to the engine.

LOL unfortunately for us, people will pay for the brand, whatever that means. Interestingly enough an OEM intake package for an NSX will run you about the same price give or take, maybe you can get one of those and try to make it Fit in the Fit.
