This HKS axle-back changes that. It's a JASMA-certified system built in Japan specifically for the Fit, running a Type-H round silencer in SUS304 stainless with a 65mm tip. Bolt-on install, and it gives the car a voice it never had.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eNot For The Fit Sport\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe fitment gate on this page, so confirm before ordering.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis \u003cstrong\u003edoes not fit vehicles with a rear valence or lip\u003c\/strong\u003e, which means the \u003cstrong\u003eFit Sport\u003c\/strong\u003e is out. The exhaust exits where that bodywork sits, so there's no way around it. The same applies to the rarer Mugen rear under spoiler if your car happens to have one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eEX, EX-L, and LX models without a rear valence are what this fits.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003e2017 And Later? You Need A Specific Rubber Mount\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eEasy to miss and it'll stop your install.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eCars built after June 2017 require either the stock rubber mount \u003cstrong\u003e18215-S84-A30\u003c\/strong\u003e or the HKS equivalent \u003cstrong\u003e17459-002100\u003c\/strong\u003e. Neither is included with the exhaust.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eCheck your build date and sort the mount in the same order if you need it. Finding out with the old exhaust already off is a frustrating way to spend an afternoon.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003e\"Silent\" Is Relative\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBeing straight about this, because the name sets an expectation the numbers don't quite match.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eHKS measures the stock Fit at \u003cstrong\u003e80dB\u003c\/strong\u003e closed and this system at \u003cstrong\u003e92dB\u003c\/strong\u003e. That's a substantial increase, and decibels are logarithmic so the difference is bigger than the numbers suggest.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSilent Hi-Power means quieter than the standard Hi-Power, not quiet in absolute terms. If you were expecting a subtle change, this isn't it. If you've been frustrated by how muted the Fit sounds and want it to actually announce itself, this delivers exactly that.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWorth knowing before you order rather than after your first early morning departure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eType-H Round Silencer\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eHKS offers two silencer shapes across the Silent Hi-Power range and this application uses the Type-H.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eType-H is round and built for performance\u003c\/strong\u003e, prioritizing flow over maximum noise suppression. The Type-S is oval and leans further toward quiet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThat's part of why this reads louder than the name implies. You're getting the performance-oriented silencer rather than the noise-focused one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003e50mm Center Pipe, Sized For A 1.5\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe center pipe runs 50mm, which is deliberate rather than conservative.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOversize the piping on a small naturally aspirated engine and you lose exhaust gas velocity, which costs you the scavenging that helps pull spent gases out of the cylinder. On a 1.5 liter Fit, velocity through the midrange is what you actually use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e50mm flows better than the restrictive factory section while keeping the car responsive where it lives.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eSUS304 Stainless\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBuilt from SUS304 high quality stainless steel, which is what separates this from the SUH409 most factory exhausts use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSUS304 resists corrosion considerably better, so this isn't a system that rots out after a few winters of salt. On a car you're keeping, it'll outlast the exhaust it replaced by a wide margin.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eGround Clearance\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eHKS lists minimum road clearance at 180mm with stock suspension.

JASMA certified, built in Japan, stainless construction, and a tone that suits a light car being driven properly.
