and for those that didnt know it existed, the secondry air injection system does have an airfilter
about £7.50 from vaux, i got one and fitted it today
new filter
you can just see the filter inside
and where it goes
looking inside it it did look well old so i guess itll cold start better and emissions from cold will be better, now my car has done 39k so i guess its never been changed, now all those cars with more milage on them???? have they been changed ever???

Nice neat project that mate. Attention to detail is spot on. Not too keen on your Irmy wheels, but love ur summer ones. As mentioned by others, needs buckets if keeping harnesses
