Cusco has announced their new suspension set, Compact Zero2. This class of suspension targets the “city car” automobile segment. Their first offering is for the Honda Fit, the kit provides the following: spring preload adjustment independent of height setting and five levels of damper adjustment in the front and eight levels of damper adjustment in the rear. The Compact Zero2 allow for a 0-55mm range in height adjustment for the front of the Fit and 30-55mm in the rear. It seems flexible enough to use on both the track and the street.

06+ Civic Si can rejoice! COBB Tuning has released and off the shelf map for cars running Type One Racing’s Carbon Intake. The new map frees an Avg gain of 11hp and 6ft-lbs across entire rev range, in my opinion that is a great net increase for an NA automobile. COBB Tuning has provided the above dyno plot of performance increase.
