Looks smart mate, further ideas might be Cams and management.
I'd do what Shaun said first though

That air filter won't be doing much for performance sucking in all that hot air from in the engine bay. I'd be fitting an airbox, supplying it with a decent cold air feed and fitting a K&N panel filter
I would rather lose by a mile because i built my own car, than win by an inch because someone else built it for me.

ive just modified the standard air box, i cut a little groove out where the k&n air filter can sit inside, sounds alot deeper just need to get something to use as as cover now

now that ive used the base of the standard airbox to put the k&n inside will this make any difference to air wise? was thinking of putting something over the top aswell to stop hot air getting to it completely
