That is more than a bit pricey. I'm still interested though. I'll ask around to see if anyone can bore one out for the fit. Maxbore does this and they did a good job on my RAV4's throttle body. I'm considering sending the stock unit out to them to have it modified. Anyone have any experience with Maxbore with their Fit?

No experience with Maxbore on my Fit but with my EK and GSR. The person that owns it does good work and the price is right. He has probably done thousands for the HT (Honda-tech) community.

I called Maxbore and confirmed he can bore out the stock 2015 throttle body. Now I'm just trying to get my hands on one. A new one costs just north of $460.

buy a used one off of ebay or from a junkyard, should only cost 30 bucks or so.

Just emailed maxbore, waiting for a response within the next few days. I think I can grant him that, as it seems to be a one man operation.

Quick search on the google-web says he can possibly track down used throttlebodies for ya, if you ask him kindly.

Nope, not yet. Been looking already. 2015 Fits are hard enough to get, let alone a throttle body off of one. Can't find any throttle body anywhere. I will continue looking though. I even have a WTB thread here asking for one.
