Hi all,

Need some advise. Driving an Auto Car 08' Fit.
Thinking of getting:
Straight thu muffler with stock pipe to have some exhaust sound and performance?
Lower spring for better corner - will it compromise my comfortable seating?
Or a rear sway bar will be better instead of lower the spring?

Am I getting it right, really need advise as I went thru the web to get such ideas.

Cant get much power by a exhaust for a Fit, sound yes...
If u wan loud then get js exhaust with hks midpipe (LTA compliant)
Else fujitsubo, full catback.
High end better, low end depends on ur transmission n set up le.
Lowering ur ride gives u better road holding n lower center of gravity. Invest in a set of coilovers rather than just lowering springs is a better option to me.
Adding 1 strut bar or sway bar wont significantly affect the handling. Different bars serve different purpose and if u intend to get a rear anti-sway or anti-roll bar, u can consider getting other bars 1st as Fit comes with rear torsion beam so the rear ARB will not help much.
Some bars stiffen the chasis, body etc, some reduce roll, flexing etc.. Depends how u wan ur ride to perform. Enjoy ur mod...
