Unofficial Honda FIT Forums

Kraftwerks KraftWerks designs and manufactures Rotrex-based supercharger kits for the Honda Fit. The KraftWerks Fit kits have shown excellent gains across the entire power band and represent the pinnacle in forced air induction for this . At the core of each KraftWerks Fit kit is a patented Rotrex traction drive supercharger, capable of over 150,000 RPM. The proprietary design allows the Rotrex supercharger to be lighter, smaller, quieter, cooler, and run higher RPMs than all other competing superchargers, and results in superior efficiency, reduced emissions, and improved transient response. KraftWerks Supercharger kits offer a broader, more usable power than anything on the market. A broad power band makes for a better street and race car, and demonstrates the superiority of the Rotrex design.

Yeah I asked a while ago. No interest in making a kit for the 09. Its a shame. I would be first in line for an 09 kit. No other form or brand of FI interests me.

The question is how much would you have to customize an older kit to make it work?.....

What a shame. I wonder if we get a list of people interested in the kit we can show kraftwerks and that might change their mind.

Meh, they look like they've already decided what to do. Guess our only option will be turbo.

I guess it might be time to get the older kit and modify it. Supercharged is a totally different power band.

We have not seen the interest in a 09 Fit kit at the level we require. If you guys can show enough interest, we would look at the the possibility. So it is not totally out of the question, but the interest would need to pick up dramatically.

We should start a thread listing people who are commited and seriously interested. Plus the GE8 is still only a couple months old, I think as time goes by and more people buy GE8's interest will go up.
