- Today, I'm helping my good friend Mark install a cold air intake on his car. The car is a 2012 Honda Fit, with the 1.5L engine. The part K&N Kit we are installing is part number 69-1017TTK. Its a farly simple installation, but there are some things the instructions didn't include. These little things are what I tried to add in this video.

very helpful indeed. might do the same on my 2011 Fit RS GE8
good job guys, as stated below KN can foul MAF's it happened to my moms car, had me scratching my head until i read some tech bulletins
Great video! I had used K&N before for my old Accord. I went with HPS this time on the Honda Fit. This video worked great for it as well! Thank you! I added it to my Honda Fit Playlist! 👍🏼
Glad it helped!
That is funny because I am using an HPS intake on my 2015 Honda fit currently! It was a similar process for installing the intake and after checking everything was well suited and tightly fitted I just started driving and noticed I can heal-toe-downshift A LOT better! For every car/truck I own I will at least do an intake install from now on.
Good job guys, prefer the dry flow filters better, they filter better than the K&N and also dont have oil to mess with the MAF sensor
This is a short ram intake, but a good video
That is a Honda Jazz for UK viewers.
Oh yeah. I should have looked into that. Thanks for pointing that out.
Thanks. Glad you said this, otherwise I would have thought it was an NSX. 😉
Good video but I have a 2013 Honda Fit sport which I installed this same k&n unit but after 50 miles I would get a check engine code too lean. Contacted K&N support but no help. So I took that unit out couldn’t deal with constant engine code.
That stinks. Sorry you had that issue.
Heard some of the newer cars have this issue as they upgrade the ECM units on them, try a dry flow AEM or similar dry flow high flow filters they are on Amazon and Ebay
Hey,I have a honda fit 2012 hybrid 1330cc,can i get it's airt intake?
And will this increase power?
I think you can look up the correct part for your vehicle on the K&N website.
Does this work on a 2009 1.3 fit? Or it has to be a 1.5 engine? If not model is for a 1.3 engine
All fits are 1.5 in 09
Hola alguien me puede decir porqué cuando instalo mi intake a mi honda fit 2013 sé prende el check engine???? Muchas gracias sí me ayudan
Hola, ese es un problema común de los “Air Intakes”, no estoy seguro pero, me parece que es debido a que la cantidad de aire que entra es mayor y la computadora interpreta eso como que hay un problema con la relación aire-combustible, es decir, la mezcla es muy “rica” o “abundante”, más de lo necesario. ¿Qué marca de Intake compraste tú?

@@germainaquino8841 chale bro. Yo estaba pensando comprar justo ese. ¿Entonces no lo recomiendas?
Sorry asking, idsi can install this??????
You can do it!
I cant get my Lean code to go away, thinking about returning it and going stock or a different brand
Thats weird, I wish I had a suggestion for you on that one.
Mark it’s josh what’s up man
Did you guys have issue on lean codes after installing the K&N kit?
Not that I'm aware of.
I do
Should have taken the batter all the way out would have had way more room
True. It's crazy how many details were left out of these instructions. The ones I've installed before had decent instructions. These were lacking.
You sure that's not taking away HP? I would think the stock air box is better
Without having a dyno to test the HP numbers I don't know. All I can say is that it doesn't feel like it lost any HP. It feels like it has more.
does this fit on automatic transmissions?
This car is an automatic. You can check the K&N Website for fitment as well.
Jeff, as you probably know I am not a fan of these k&n kits. I have seen numerous issues with them and similar companies when installed on customers vehicles that come in my shop. The oil gets on those mass air flow sensors and reeks havoc causing false readings. We also noticed thru scan data of the mass air sensor that factory set ups actually flowed more air especially in mustangs.
I know you're not. I've heard of the over oiling messing with the MAF sensor. So far, I havent had that issue. I've been thinking about doing an unscientific test on this just to see what happens. It might make a fun project.
I am thinking of doing an intake similar to this kit but now I'm unsure. Could you explain what you mean by the oil causing issues with the airflow sensor? Also I am going to be using a breather filter for the crank vent rather than using a hose to connect to the intake pipe, will this be better?
As a professional auto technician I saw a lot of these conversions. The oil from the the air filter is sucked into the engine. On the way it gets sucked past the mass airflow sensor causing the sensor to get covered in oil. This then insulates the wire that the sensor uses to determine the airflow going into the engine. That wire has voltage going thru it and is cooled by air changing how much voltage that is flowing thru the wire. The computer sees the amount of voltage and determines how much air is running thru it. By the oil insulating the wire it throws off the computer’s ability to determine airflow and fuel mixture. I’ve especially seen it on Fords. We had several mustangs where we could actually watch the airflow thru the scan tool and see that the stock air filter flowed more air than the aftermarket kits. Sometimes there is an ambient air temperature sensor along side too. The aftermarket kits do a poor job sucking cool outside air. They tend to suck the hot engine compartment air.
@@jimbond24 "Tend to" Depending on filter and exhaust manifold location.
According to my OBD2 my SRI is roughly the same temperature as my stock airbox "While moving"
What I did notice about the factory air box is that it was sucking more humid air compared to the SRI.
I guess it all depends on what you are trying to achieve and your application.
The exploded view in the instructions specifically indicates which fastener goes where and how many. In your video, you expressed frustrations with not knowing where the fasteners go. Well, there you go!
Oops. I must have overlooked that part. My bad. Lol.
ok, now it's a Ferrari.😂😂😂😂😂😂😂👍
No. It's far from a Ferrari, lol, but Mark is happy so I think it's good. 👍
@@homebuiltshop it’s a FITrari 😉😉😅
how to screw up all that good all japanese engineerings
