hi
i have no problems with the idle being rough.. if your using a auto ecu in a manual you will have to fit 2 resistors to trick the ecu..
but otherwise i have had no problems with idle..the isc is working ok and it idles good...
as for the cruise controle i think you would have to change the set up on the engine to the ef/el set up otherwise the rest should be ok.... but im not 100% on the cruise controle..

Just a question about your EL air box what did you do with the charcoal cansister and hoses?I was thinking about going from pod back to panel and better cold air.By the way good effort.

hi
at first the hoses were slightly squashed by the air box
but i ended up drilled 2 holes a little lower and used a couple gromits and fed the hoses through ..
