I have the HKS green mushroom in my 08 fit sport, I am getting a cusco mid tower bar, but after that I am definitely getting an HKS Axleback. Thanks for the video!
Sounds and looks amazing. This is exactly what I'm looking for on my 2012 fit sport, just a sound upgrade... For me everything else is already perfect. If I bought one of these and took it to a muffler shop, what would be a fair price for them to install it for me?
I had this on my fit but had to go back to stock because it wouldn’t fit with my new rear mugen bumper. now my fit is too quiet, I miss the the hks exhaust, it wasn’t too loud, just right for me 😅
Did it give you a hard time removing the donut gasket on the stock muffler? As i see it, it seems stuck on your vid. Could it just be pulled by hand bro?
It’s been a minute since we installed the exhaust but if I remember correctly the donut was stuck, I’m sure it woudlve come off with a little persuasion, but the oem one was in good enough shape to reuse, so I remember reusing it, and we haven’t had any exhaust leaks with it so far. 👍
They’re Advan RG-2’s.

I’m right there with you, like I think it sounds good, but it’s definitely quiet most of the time. I believe HKS also sells a mid pipe for it, which would help greatly imo, because there’s another muffler/resonator near the side of the car, and I think that’s the issue.
@@BalancePointMedia I’ve removed my mid pipe/resonator Before I did the hks. Might be a tad louder but I think it just gives it more drone on the highway
We didn’t set the height based on inches, so it’s hard to say unless you have a fit directly next to it at stock height. If I had to take a guess I’d say about 2.5 inches?
Just got mine on a Black Friday sale!!! Aaah I can’t wait for it to arrive. Thanks for the video!!!

Of course! Glad it helped you!

It’s a very easy install, I wouldn’t expect more that 50-80 bucks depending on your area.
@@BalancePointMedia would it need a tune?
@@tony_5156 no.
@@tony_5156 no, no tune at all needed.
Sounds good..how was it on the highway (drone)?
No drone at all, it’s super quiet when cruising.
@BalancePointMedia excellent
How do you like it after a couple of months?
Still loving every minute of it! 🤙
Sounds great. I just got a 2010 fit sport and I think this is the exhaust I need
We’re still loving it, it’s subtle but nice.
I had this on my fit but had to go back to stock because it wouldn’t fit with my new rear mugen bumper. now my fit is too quiet, I miss the the hks exhaust, it wasn’t too loud, just right for me 😅
Good to know, because we were thinking about finding a mugen rear. But if it doesn’t fit, maybe not.
Am I wrong for keeping old parts to return to stock just incase I want to sell it lol
Nah, we still have the stock axle back for ours, even the stock radio, the only thing I think we don’t have is the stock wheels anymore.

@@BalancePointMedia Thanks bro, have you applied any resealing paste on donut gasket inbetween flanges when reinstalling?
Haven’t needed to, so far. But depending on where you live, you may have to. 👍
How's the fuel consumption compared to stock brother?
The axle back didn’t really affect fuel consumption at all.
When you do a muffler delete, does the mid pipe and all that get removed?
Out of Curiosity lol
No, just the muffler itself.
What size wheels have you got on it?
Good stuff I have the exact car same color and everything,what wheels are on yours and size I like those maybe in a custom color also.anyway thanks
Iirc they’re 17x7.5 +41 they’re on a set of 215/40/17’s
What kind of rims are they? They are nice. If you don’t mind , can you link where you bought the exhaust please. Thanks.

i did this with mine. just not quite loud enough for me. but no muffler is too loud so idk.

Maybe try headers ?

you might wanna check out a cold air intake, but that might be too loud idk.
Did you have to do any engine tuning after install?
No, it’s just an axle back, no tuning required. 👍
@@BalancePointMedia thanks for the info!
Is jacking up the back of car really necessary?
I’m not saying it can’t be done on the ground. However it’ll be a lot less fighting in the air. 👍
i like those Rims Wher did you get any link ? Thanks
I have a 2010 fit sport , what year is this ?
It’s also a 2010
I just got a 2010 fit sport. Did you also get this exhaust?
How much is the car lowered
We didn’t set the height based on inches, so it’s hard to say unless you have a fit directly next to it at stock height. If I had to take a guess I’d say about 2.5 inches?
is this exhaust universal for the second gen or is it only for the 2009 model as listed on the link that you provided?
It should fit all GE fits.
@@BalancePointMedia sweet thanks
Car go vroom
I have a Fit 2009 would it fit?
