Re: Tips and Advice
Welcome. The Fit is a great car. You will have fun. 
Make sure all your standard maintenance is up-to-date (engine oil and filter, valve adjustment, air filter, spark plugs, serpentine belt, wheel alignment, tires, brakes, etc.).
If you are serious about improving any car's performance, start with tires, brakes and suspension. Go slowly. Keep it simple.
Good luck.
P.S. If you have a manual transmission, change out the manual transmission fluid. Use Honda OEM manual transmission fluid.

Welcome man ! I also have my 09 Fit since 2017 and its still runs great 230000 miles later.
First off I would focus on maintenance of the vehicle. Make sure all your fluids are changed then begin modding for the PURPOSE you want the Fit to serve.
Any questions feel free to message me or post up !
