Okay, going from 94 bhp on a FIT to 150 bhp+ with this new SuperCharger on the FIT seems pretty awesome. How much extra gas is that system going to eat? Normal driving = normal gas consumption? Fun driving = crappy gas mileage? Help a brother out here...I have a FIT and am considering an upgrade. Would this be worth it?

Yeah that's a pretty crazy gain! However, I don't see it causing "crappy gas mileage" in a Fit. Oscar said it's on par with turbo efficiency, so that's a positive. I think it's very much worth the upgrade.

Like any FI vehicle, the more boost you use, the more fuel you consume. A supercharger has a bit of parasitic loss due to it being belt driven, but supposedly the Rotrex units are a bit better in this regard. So, stay out of the boost and you should return very close to the same EPA ratings as stock. On the boost, who knows.
Let me just note that this was some of the most exciting news I heard at SEMA. If I were in the market for a Fit, a full host of mods from Jackson would be at the top of my list (S/C, intake, header, exhaust).
