Assuming that you have a new generation Fit, you can forget about superchargers, and most lilkely also forget about turbo-chargers too. Also forget about header exhaust- our exhaust manifold and cylinder head is a one-piece casting. We can't replace the exhaust manifold with headers until someone makes an after-market cyl. head for us.

My advice would be to invest in a PRM Racing Intake system, and a Aero turbine Muffler. You will find these things well covered in these forums. Other people will chime in with their own favorite brands a parts. Also, to make the most of the actual power that you have, invest in the NTD brand Throttle Controller. PM our member twpanson for current pricing, and to see if any group buys are going on.

Although I still have stock wheels and tires, there is a very good discussion in our forums about the advantages of buying lighter after-market wheels and lighter, higher performance tires. Reduced mass of wheels and tires actually add acceleration (but not power) and increase fuel economy.

Whatever you do in customization, and even if you do nothing, you will enjoy the Fit.

I doubt that the gains from an aftermarket head with exhaust, intake, header, intake manifold would net much gains since the choices for tuning are very limited. A swap is out of the question right now since mounts for GE's are non-existent unless you know someone at Garage FK. Give it about another year and things will start coming out to increase performance.
