Given your CVT and the fact that you're down nearly 27 hp from the Fit your MPG difference to the Fit now makes sense

nice improvement just by the intake.

the thing about the Fit for me is that mine is a 5MT and can accelerate to 60 under 8sec. that's plenty quick for a eco-hatch.
my obc shows 30.6mpg on short surface roads trips with my spirited driving, so that's plenty for me. when i did a road trip it was up to 37mpg, nowhere near your 44+mpg, but im okay with it.
for me, i prefer the quickness vs squeezing out mpg. i really dont care about gas consumption at this level as it's regular gas and it doesn't cost that much to begin with. however, i would prefer the car had a larger tank so i dont have to fill as often.
