Plans sound good, but sell the air filter, they don't work well with 1.0 litres.

yay another 1.0 owner 12vs rule!
Looks good so far and the standard rear will look 100x better tip for you keep the standard airbox on it. Airfilters can cause the AFM to go funny on the 1.0's
Look forward to seeing some updates

12v FTW
Best leave the filter off mate, had a k&n cone filter on mine and it messed it up alot, just not worth the hassle and money mate.
But cars coming along nicely mate, will keep an eye on this project thread
