Thank you! I’ll let you know how it goes. Waiting for a nice day to install since it’s been raining here in the PNW.Read that if you haven't already. With the right color spray paint you can make it look exactly like SPOON's for waaaaay cheaper, Some improvement in low/mid-range throttle response, pairs nicely with an aftermarket intake, easy mod with just the right amount of grease on your hands afterward, you already have the sensor included on your RB1 that gives some people the biggest headache when trying to swap everything over.
DIY: Honda Fit Intake Manifold in 30 mins!
Lets keep this short and simple... 1. Remove your stock or cold air intake. (6mm socket and 10mm socket) 2. Unplug anything that is attached to the manifold and sensors. 3. Remove the intake manifold cover. (pull up) 4. Remove the 5 bolts holding the intake manifold to the aluminum...www.crzforum.com

. I stripped the phillips screw sadly. I had to use a nut splitting tool to break off the MAF sensor & a shield that was protecting the phillips. Everything else was straight forward from following the steps until 2 10mm was pain to get off since I was limited with certain tools and didn’t want to take the throttle body off completely even though it would’ve definitely helped. I lost one the back 10mm from lifting the manifold a bit cause I thought I hand tighten it enough but guess not so only one stayed screwed in. I was trying to line up the holes to the throttle body. Lesson learned, remove the throttle body completely if you want to access the 2 10mm easier. It landed somewhere on the bottom plastic cover but going to buy a new one. Going to be curious about the drive to work tomorrow morning. Thank you to whoever suggested to drive around so the engine heat can easily help you unscrew the oem phillip screw holding down the oem MAF.
