Mountain Touge In My Turbocharged Honda Fit!

[@_Gingium_]

Sooooo, paint job & built motor? Or new daily? Also don't forget to check out the Insta360 X3: store.insta360.com/product/x3?INROLJQ&KOL&X3car

[@BitcoinTo150K]

Sell it get 4 door Si 8th gen and put a kraftwerks supercharger easy 400whp

[@camber_courtney5250]

Next thing I'd like to see? Get as many carbon fiber parts as possible and see how much weight you can shave off... and then a paint job lol.

[@spahrtan13]

If you're looking for color suggestions, cypress green pearl is my favorite Honda color.

[@Rev.Happy.]

I vote you pretty it up a little more (and defenitly make it faster)

[@michaelgruis4030]

I'm really curious to see how this compares to a fiesta ST

[@keithparker7412]

To be that close to the mountains is truly a blessing. Getting to just casually drive those cool roads is an awesome thing

[@_Gingium_]

Yeah 100%! Love living within an hour of these places

[@timhoughland8267]

Gingium, where is your shop? Im in Lawrenceville. Just curious.

[@jasonmccoy567]

I agree. I live about 30 minutes from the tail of the dragon on the Tennessee side. It's awesome being able to just decide to go for a drive and not have to plan a trip.

[@benjamin8558]

​@@jasonmccoy567let alone seeing and hearing all the cool cars around

[@KeithMilton-rl1mg]

I've driven those Ga mountain roads for years. Never had so much fun until I got a Fiesta ST. Tail of the Dragon is a blast ! Now I'm retired in Mexico and have a Fit GK5 Sport with HFP package. There are some awesome roads here in the mountains. But it's way too dangerous to drive them like we would in Ga or Tenn. Spent a lot of money building my Fit and I can't really drive it , what a shame.

[@radelement3987]

Fr tho people be stealing guard rails just for the scrap value

[@roachwerks3043]

a small, stiff, front wheel drive car is a whole different kind of fun. especially on twisty mountain roads. people bring super cars, porsches, corvettes, and other sports cars and dont realize they are really missing out on these narrow roads lol

[@DariusRC]

Now needs to be called the Honda Buff, get some matching badges

[@BitBurns]

Dude! You were literally 10 minutes from me! Blood Mountain is a blast and the store at the top is great. Hope to catch you up here sometime and do some cruising!

[@SgtJohnBambi]

Well well well Caleb it was only a few days ago we (John, Joel, and Dylan) mentioned you should hit up the mountains while we were at your shop for the dyno session in the black miata. Awesome to see a video only a few days later on one of our favorite mountain passes of the area. We hope to bump into you some time up there! Also, if you'd like a route of our loop or some miatas to chase for next time we can gladly provide.

[@brandoncrider3697]

Saw my buddy Tom bought it for his son, and I was like dang that guy and fit looks familiar 😂

[@B18C5EH2]

It's a great little car, dude!

Love see the cars in action and getting tweeked 👍🏼 best type of content

[@dverespey]

My work takes me to Greenville SC. I've been drive the roads to the north and west of there for fun on the weekends when I have to stay over. I haven't made it over as far as 60. Will have to check it out. The whole area has some fun roads, 23 comes to mind. I'm always in boring rental car, but it's still good to get out in the hills.

[@dorkvis5008]

Love the footage, nicely edited, great video. Fit sounds awesome 👌

[@LunchboxQ50]

If you're up for a little hike, the Blood Mountain area is a great place for a drive and awesome views from the top

[@_Gingium_]

I did that hike last year actually! Very awesome!

[@vestia_me]

you know its good when your turbo sounds like from a video game

[@jerrykawatski9940]

0:42 The way I like to go is up blood mountain to 180 then to hwy 60 . On weekends it is still not busy unlike the Dragon, much safer and laid back. Watch out for the law, safety first of course. Sunday mornings are good people are at church but sports car guys and motorcycles are still there. Go after caffeine and octane in Kennesaw and you might see a bunch of big dollar sports cars.

[@p4pacrust]

Favorite road of all time. Wolf Pen Gap is goated around there. Me and a couple other buddies in Athens are going up there the 8th if you want to go again!

[@4G6Tre]

I just got one of these pretty much for free. 5 speed and same color, always liked the looks of them and feel like they should’ve been the EP3. Super fun car to drive

[@xorkatoss]

sweet honda fit bro! if you are thinking about painting then I definitely recommend going for white paint and add the red honda type r logos to it! wheels can be any color.

[@REYPERFORMANCE-PR]

YESSSSS HKS BOV FOR THE WIN !!! I RUN HKS BOV ON MY ELANTRA N SOUNDS BEAUTIFUL!!, EVERYONE LOOKS AT THE CAR EVERY TIME I LET OFF OF THE GAS !!

[@christianramos1253]

Bro lmao when you built your blue Miata I installed the fm turbo kit on mine 😂 now you boosted your fit and I’m about to boost mine 😂 this just got me 10x more pumped currently just waiting on parts haha

[@joshuamartyn4222]

I went on that first road back in march on a motorcycle. There was a guy absolutely ripping a Miata and it reminded me of you haha.

[@TheDF3]

the 360 record so good, hope you make more content with it

[@sethk1429]

I absolutely love the super squeaky, probably the only bov I’d put on a turbo car.

[@HDTbassboost]

I live about 10 mins from that first overlook the intro was shot in. Wolf pens gap (GA180) and blood are some really fun roads to rip on for sure.

[@_Gingium_]

I’d kill to live 10 minutes from that road!

[@CiottiFPV]

Wolf pens gap is amaaaaazing, best road in GA

[@travisjones9005]

i know it's a drive but Suck Creek mountain in Tennessee is a ton of fun to drive up and down. Notable stop is Prentice Cooper forest preserve! I drive my type n up there all the time!

[@estewar03]

Those are cute little Georgia HILLS.... Also, consider doing the least expensive best bang for the buck BBK. The Mini Cooper 280mm rotors & 99-00 Integra Type-R/CRV calipers. I did that on my GD along with stainless brake lines front & rear with some higher temp DOT4 & it's SUCH a massive improvement you won't believe it & they will clear your current wheels, won't clear the stock Fit 15"s but your offset of the Konig's would be totally fine. My kit consisted of PowerStop rebuild calipers (powder coated red for extra credit). TechnaFit brake line kit, Wagner metallic brake pads for a 1st gen TSX, Brembo drilled rotors & Mercedes Benz DOT4. I searched for quality parts that I could find on sale & all in it was $310.

[@Grimesitty]

I traded my 2016 EX-L in a year ago for a Kona N and I can't help but think I'm missing out by not owning a fit, as slow as they are I love how practical they look and how fun they are to drive. I feel like I can't really give it the beans as often in the Kona N because it's a little too fast for city streets, 🤔

[@njoythedrive]

Yooo have you ever considered learning how to create parts with carbon fiber? Might be a real challenge for ya and you could upload your learning process along the way!

[@quentinjousset3508]

I think, realy better noise without BOV HKS!!! Good vidéo, love your vidéos Ginguim👌🤙

[@jimmyjones8311]

The next time you’re up in the mountains Blood Mtn in Blairsville is a great road as is Fort Mtn in Ellijay. Tons of fun roads in the N GA mtns.

[@AndrewTheHoff]

I had to double vacuum T to mine since I wasn't running a ton of boost, made less flutter and it opened better.

[@_Gingium_]

What do you mean "double vacuum T" ?

[@AndrewTheHoff]

@@_Gingium_ run two vacuum lines into the diaphragm via a T, sorry I was tired and not very clear.

why did you have to take the back wheel off to replace the front fender lol

[@rewanker7336]

Mazda 2 with 1.5 103hp (ZY-VE) is good alternative to Honda Fit. Mazda looks sportier and have better handling and suspension from factory. I can see only advantage for Fit, that it can be offered with more powerful VTEC engine.

Open your hatch. Get in your car. Start the car. Turn the A/C on high and shut all the windows and doors. The combination of acoustics from the exhaust and motor mounts is almost painful. It feels like driving with just your back windows open.

[@KoyoteAkuma777]

oof not the pinstripe i mean hey offers up a possible paint job in the future possibly i dunno

[@DriftNick]

Americans really are allergic to turbo flutter, the turbo will be fine without a blow off valve, what is funny is even his Volvo has turbo flutter despite the blow off valves he installed.

[@westleyworley1731]

My factory Mini Cooper S has turbo flutter. Some people are just too cautious!

[@Hogdog4343]

Why not fix it though? It’s not difficult.

[@DriftNick]

@@Hogdog4343 There is nothing to fix.

[@florider_hd]

your turbo does live longer with a blowoff valve. why do you think all turbo cars nowadays have them? its a daily so its main purpose is to stay alive 😂

[@DriftNick]

@@florider_hd The main purpose of a bypass/recirculation valve to reduce emissions, aftermarket blow off valves exist because people like the sound. Nissan's pre 1988 didn't run any (some after 88 still had none like early S13's), turbo's literally out last the engines in those, even some modern cars don't run any, if it does any damage it's so minimal you wouldn't notice.

[@johnhughes7125]

Unpopular opinion.... Turbo flutter for the win. Stutututu is better than wooooooooossshhh. No need for a BOV in my opinion. It's not a race car and the boost pressure isn't that high

[@DriftNick]

It's common place in motorsport not to run a BOV, you can pretty much look at any top level racing car and see they don't run any, GT3, GTP, WRC, etc, as for boost pressure not being that high, pretty common here to see street cars running 30+ psi with no valve not to mention race cars running a lot more than that.
