because you need a fuel management with the SC I doubt you would need the injector upgrade for the low boost kit, the stock injectors seem to be good for low boost applications. With that said it might be worth it to ask OJR to hold a set for you after you order and then check your AF with a wideband to find out for sure. Then if you are running lean you can order in the upgraded injectors.
Hey, thanks for the reply.

You think it'll be okay if I drive it daily with header/test pipe till upgrade injectors?

I think it would be fine, but still swing by AJR and have them check out your AF with the wideband to make sure everything is going good.

It was a Mustang Dyno (Mustang 1100SE Chassis Dyno). Depending which graph you look at I either got 120whp 107torque on the smoothen-out graph or 124whp 111torque on the un-smoothen-out graph lol.
hey, what mods do you have on the car?

I believe it is legal to install a CARB Pending product. But if you want to be on the safe side, I understand. There is a delay on the whole CARB process... but trust me, it's a good thing (and sorta a good thing that you haven't installed it yet too, unfortunately I can't say much). I must say you have some will power just seeing that box, and knowing that you could be driving around with a lot more power. Patience is a virtue, and you seem to have it. Unless your like me where I have all these parts laying around and just been too lazy / don't have the time to install it.

Glad you get her back. Dude just get the AEM F/IC, 310cc injectors from RC and take it to the shop by you that has the dyno. Between a grand vs. 2 or 300 more and you will have it tuned for YOUR vehicle specifically. Just a thought bro! The wait sucks but do you really want to be the guinea pig again?

Saying that our customers are the guinea pig really gives off false information. In no way do we create a product and release it to the public without first testing it.

I understand your frustration with your personal injector upgrade, but we did everything possible to make sure you were taken care of in the end.

The Hondata reflash has been delayed to make sure it is tuned absolutely correct for the Fit market.

yes you did and i am grateful. but the fact remains that myself and several others encountered problems with not only the injectors but the clamps and the belt tensioner. these problems were not due to installer error. i am not bitter just expressing my opinion (of whom others who have this kit share).

I understand but...

The hose clamps work perfect when installed correctly. The S2000 kits (Both 5psi AND 10psi) use the same clamps and never have had an issue.

The belt tensioner and belt drive fits perfect on all the cars we have seen completed. We have a lot more kit owners not on this website, and none have had these issues.

We want to help if you have an issue, but you must contact KraftWerks to receive that help. We also ask you to not PM with tech support questions.

for a quicker, less problematic, less frustrating, more powerful solution, two turbo kits are right around the corner ;-)

yeah, i kinda know what you mean.

still,i'd like to see a professionaly installed kraftwerks kit. i have been on other sites, and oscar is right, no one is having issues with their kit, and the folks on this site who got it done by pros...have not either.


its different for manual guys, but if the kit works how it should, its the best, easiest solution for an a/t guy, without any of the negative effects of a turbo that will eventually rear their head, even with proper preventative maintenence.

For an A/T fit? Name 'em! I'm still a lock for the KWSC however. I see a turbo kit as a "slippery slope" of more stuff I'll need and/or want to buy for the car. I'm done with my A/T Fit after going forced induction.

Hondata

Since the hondata is just a reflash can I still use a piggy back to fine tune. Also will the throttle be improved, because blitz is going to be releasing a throttle controller for the fit very soon.

exactly. i think the tr1 kit is reliable, but i don't want to be a test mule for the auto, even if its the quickest way to more power.

as long as my but dyno is happy, i'm happy. even 4k for 25whp is cheaper than financing another car for 5 years or building up an older honda.
