it's an automatic, keep it floored dude! You need to get it tuned properly to get that god damn engine light turned off!!!! Do you have any problems going into boost at any other throttle position other than Wide Open throttle?
what you said below about the torque converter is correct though.
ALL Honda AUTOs (CVT) use torque converters with the exception of Honda's experimental i-Shift, which is, like said, a manual gearbox with a TCM that controls it electronically.
i-Shift is smart however if you drive one they are shit. Honda's way of saying, look.. it can be done.
I hope you dont feel i was getting assy! haha
im a mechanic at Honda, thats the only reason why i would want to know any of that. haha
@shredtheibanez You would be right, if this car is an i-shift. The video doesn't say i-shift though.
If it's i-shift, then yes, it's an SMG box without a torque converter....and from what I can gather, a pretty unrefined one that WOULD require letting off the gas between shifts.
1. You just put it in sport mode and it will shift for you just at higher rpms
2. You can shift yourself by tapping the paddles down when in sport mode and if you don't shift it will NOT shift for you so it makes it a lot more fun
Technically it is a manual by the fact it has a manual gearbox however the system 'i-Shift' emulates the drive of a auto with the ability to still manually shift.
You HAVE to take your foot off everytime you shift to allow the system to change gear.
@shredtheibanez It still has a torque converter. Some honda automatics (maybe all?) are "robotized" manual gearboxes, however if it has a torque converter there is no reason to let off the gas. Honda would not design a Fit that requires letting off the gas - the majority of their market would be confused and ruin the transmission. I don't know of any production car that requires that, actually.
@burnout8488 The CVT's have an emulated '7 speed' naturally they do not have 7 gears but emulate that throughout the box.
the i-shift are a simple MANUAL gearbox with an electronically controlled manual clutch and selectors, the system controls the box allowing for auto, the box however still has manual control and manual gears (although it is selected via the system instead of shift rods).
when i said you have to take your foot off, if you have ever driven an i-shift you would understand.
@joelinpdx then i'm glad i don't have paddles on mine, thats some fairly shitty shifting action. Or maybe it just looks bad because it's on camera and i'm not driving....
nice video!!! i wanted to know with the automatic honda fit does the computer shift for you when in sport mode or will it just hit limiter?kuz im thinking of buying 1 n boosting it but not if the computer is goin to shift for me
STUPIIIDDDDDD !!!!

i'll give you that and i would say you are correct in saying it doesn't say its an i-shift.
I-shift doesnt have the P and S indicators on the dials - if im correct.

When in sport you have two options
1. You just put it in sport mode and it will shift for you just at higher rpms
2. You can shift yourself by tapping the paddles down when in sport mode and if you don't shift it will NOT shift for you so it makes it a lot more fun

why are you letting off the gas between shifts? It's an automatic, you're not fooling anyone, this is making it slower.
