comments welcome

i am in two minds wether to put it back to standard and sell up for an EK9 or EG6 or the other part of me wants to carry on with it and make it a bit more track focused but its the costs of running it on track that are putting me off. where as i wouldnt mind it in a civic with little wheels and brakes

if anyone wants a teg, hit me up ;) ;)

Air is forced in under the scuttle panel, just like the oem setup
