Btw, not to rain on your parade or anything, but you realize if you get hit by a real car while driving that $6400 PoS you are going to die. You realize where they are skimping right?

That's exactly what I was thinking. The Fit, aside from utterly failing the new small overlap test is an otherwise very safe car, largely due to the fact that it has the backing of a huge company behind it and a lot of very expensive R&D. If a Honda can completely shatter your legs if hit in the wrong spot, just imagine what would happen to you in that thing.

Personally I would much rather spend some extra cash on the fuel required to lug a heavy car around than risk ending up like Christopher Reeve.

You asking a technical question or a ricer question?  I'm afraid only you can answer the latter.

But would putting this on (or any other catback system on) make me a ricer?!

Only if it weighs more and adds no power but sounds dope yo.

Seems like a lot of money for 15-20 hp, but if you're after the sound I suppose it may be worth it. I tend to stick to either suspension upgrades or ECU reflashes on FI cars. An extra 50hp and 100ft.lbs from a $600 reflash is pretty damn hard to beat.

I bought waht they call a J-pipe to go along with it and it supposedly is good for 12-15 WHP gains and then the Greddy catback is another 8-10 based on dynos i have seen so far.

Just so you know the effects aren't usually additive especially without a tune.  It won't be 15+10=25hp.  You might get 10-15 total on the dyno thereabouts.  Just know that vendors can and will manipulate their dynos to sell product, so do tuners.

My guy is a Suntek guy, they do good stuff.  I got 3M Crystalline on my FRS, really the best stuff out there I found as its a daily so didn't want to cheap out with California sun here.  Note if you go with anything darker than CR70 (I think) there might be little 3M logos scattered on the tint.  I did look at this new photo-sensitive tint which would be good for driving at night but when I compared the overall specs to my CR70 the performance differences where negligible if any.  Might be pricey for a used car though.  CR70 also has a glare reduction of 22%, you can find the other specs.  I like to keep my tint as light as possible to avoid attracting unwanted fuzz.
