That is a seriously nice looking front end!
What splitter have you got on? Looks great and fitment looks good too. I've been wondering what would fit a Ph.1

It came very close to ripping the bonnet off and taking it for a spin. But I'm lazy lol I'd have had to jack it back up to do the down pipe

I think where the air filter it's now I'm thinking there won't be enough cold air /flow around it now. I was thinking of some kind of duct /vent but ebay brings loads up has any one got any sujestions on a nice looking ones to do the job?
Was thinking just above the head light?

I have the stock snorkel thing but that on its own isn't going to give enough air flow tbh was thinking perhaps one of these to keep it standard looking?

Kent what needs did he have fitted to that I can't remember now?
Chris No just NO they look wank on ph1 lol
Or on of these above the filter?

Nimrods for sure though... What's it go like with the gearbox mounted turbo on?

standard snorkel will be more than enough, another alternative if you haven't abs is to cut a hole under the filter and feed a hose to it from behind the fog lamp aperture.
