Definitely worth the investment
By Alexander T. Esplin
First, let me just say that despite what Amazon's little "Does this fit your car" wizard says, this does indeed fit the 2007 Honda Fit Sport (model 69-1016-1TS).Second, I bought this intake knowing full well that it wasn't going to make my 107-horsepower Fit into a drag racer. I bought it for the following reasons:1. I've already spent, over the lifetime of my car, enough money on stock air filters to pay for it.2. The stated 5% horsepower increase would be a noticeable improvement if you're starting with 107 horsepower.3. Said improvement ought to increase my around-town mileage, since I don't have to step on the gas quite as hard to get going.4. Said improvement ought to increase my high-speed freeway mileage, since I don't need quite as many RPMs to go freeway speeds (75-80 mph).The first reason alone in my mind justifies the expense. I won't have to buy another air filter as long as I own the car. The second reason has proven true. This intake has made a noticeable increase in throttle response and power. The car still isn't what you'd call fast, but it's enough faster that it's noticeable. The third reason, so far, has proven true. Over the 10 or so tanks of gas since I bought the intake, I've measured about a 7% increase in mileage. This is on mixed in-town and low-speed (60-70) freeway trips. I haven't been out on the open freeway (speed limit 75 or 80) yet, so I don't know, but I'd guess the fourth reason would probably also hold true.Then there's the sound. It's clearly louder than the stock air box, but not so loud as to drown out conversation or be annoying if you're driving around with the windows up. For those of us who appreciate the sound of an engine breathing freely, that's also a bonus. All in all, the only thing I regret about buying this was not doing it 40,000 miles ago.

By Dr. J.
Very well made. Very easy to install. It is kind of a pain to take it apart to clean and maintain the filter though. It does NOT have CARB certification and is quite loud when you are hard on the throttle.

2007 Honda Fit Sport
By ARW
I like it.I definitely felt a power gain when I first installed it. I don't know if it affected my gas mileage.Installation was fairly easy. The instructions were clear, it was just a struggle to get it into the space. I felt like I was forcing it into the space, and hope I never have to remove it.The love/hate part is the noise. The car is ridiculously loud, but only under acceleration. Once you let off the gas, it goes back to being a normal car. It is a little obnoxious, but it also makes the car feel faster than it actually is.It turns heads. Pedestrians look over expecting a sports car and turn away disappointed. I think I like the product because of how ridiculous it is.
