i had to cut a big hole in the grill to get air into the huge intercooler and on into the rad.. so the mesh looks a bit better... the standard grill is very restrictive as only the bottom few bits let air through...
and thats it before i BUTCHERED it

Have you thought about chopping the middle out a Orion grille and meshing it? if i find a pic of one i'll put it up, they look well smart

Why would i want to fit a RST injection system when they are pretty much the same? also the dizzy has been modified for turbo spec so it'll retard on boost, you never heard of the Turbo Technics conversions?
Ok so RSi's are getting rare but this one was heading for the scrapyard before i saved it and it'll never be a concours car anyway. Ive done the standard stuff and want to experiment before i snuff it
