the new fit is 117 engine hp. It was 109 before right? so +8 at the engine maybe +7 at the wheels. I wouldn't be too worried. I'm pretty sure the older models make a tad less or jsut the same as our yaris at the wheels so this new model should only be 6 or so whp more than ours is now.

I made an intake for the Honda Fit as well,but so far the gains have not been as good as with the yaris. I need to be able to control the variable cam timing ont he Fit to optimize the intake (I think).

OMFG ! Everyday I think about how freaking sweetass this manifold is gonna be on the yaris , the top end power+ the amazing sound of a sheet metal intake manifold = KILLER ! So when should the final product be ready to sell/ship out ??? Please dont rush . I'd just like a "ball-park" time frame. Thanks again and look foward to installing this manifold .

I don't think a million dollars will cover it-do you know how big the Honda Fit market is? Actually, the best intake has been for the Miata-that one offer the best power gains of any motor yet.

He's already said that he will produce the high end and then after that is the demand for the midrange is great, he will start that too i believe.
