Ditch the LS Wing badges if you are going for the SRi Look...
Wound the Fuel/Boost up atall? We have in ours, makes a massive difference...
Looks well anyway, I like a nice Cav. Wish I still had my old one...

Fairly, obviously fit a boost gauge to keep check on what you do though, we did that, made sure it was maintaining the OE 10psi, then fitted a Bleed Valve between the Turbo Compressor & Actuator (Replaced the standard hose with a new length with valve fitted and mounted up near Intercooler piping/Rad) then slowly tweaked the valve up to get it reaching 18-20psi (and did miniscule adjustments to the fuel until well matched) - it actually reaches 22psi on a long in gear run...
We also have a Decat, but also have a full 2.0 16v Ecotec/2.5 V6 Catback system fitted (from my old 16v) as it is a considerably larger bore than the 1.7 system
I used both the 1.5 Tuning guide on here and the Isuzu tuning thread on VxON to help do all our tweaks
