Tunerzine Project Honda Fit Part 6 - 本田碳纤维部件更换
By www.Carbonfiber.com.cn
Everyone knows that an intake is just one of those bare necessity modifications for any car. A lot of people start with it. Offering light horsepower gains, better throttle response and the all important ‘noise’ factor, intakes are always affordable and easily obtainable. For our Project Fit, that up until now has strictly focused on its good looks, we turned towards Mishimoto’s all new carbon fiber intake system. To go beyond your standard install photos and to write typical marketing material like many tech articles, we’re going to go straight to what everyone cares about. How did it perform?
Our Fit was completely stock in the engine bay. Not a single performance modification to date, so this would be the best way to prove what an intake can do. After our installation of the Mishimoto intake, we went straight to Velocity Trends where they let us strap the Fit down on the dyno and put it to the real test. It didn’t take any fancy tuning to show the instant gains: 8.31hp and 7.32 ft/lb of torque. Considering that the Fit comes factory with 108 horsepower at the flywheel and 105 ft/lb of torque, that is a very nice gain at the wheels. The dyno registered 88.28whp and 85.84wtq. Final numbers? 96.59whp, 93.16 wtq.
