Get rid of all badges except the opc OR the GSi one imo.
Turbo one just looks wrong as the font is too different from either the opc or Gsi ones.
And in mainland europe GSi is the same as opc pretty much so go with one or the other or it's like saying you own a Vauxhall Opel Corsa - technically right but also wrong :geek:

Looking great mate, you've really done yourself proud there
Have to agree on the badges though, just the GSi 16v would look so much better but at the end of the day its your car and you've worked so hard on it so you can stick whatever you want on it! lol
Hope you get it running, prob something really simple, crossed wire or something!!

Brilliant mate! I think the OPC one is alright, but the turbo one should come off, see a lot of that styled ones on chav cars. Even though you can pull it off.
By the bys, what rear wiper is that?

Badges are so wrong! It says you have a regular gsi with a turbo badge. Also ruins the whole theme of you car imo.

UPDATE,
Got her running,
Couldnt get the mbe working due to my own fault so decided to ditch it in favour of a phase 3.5 ecu and normal dizzy setup,
bit gutted but should still see good power,
Spent today finishing off the engine bits,
just waiting for parts now,
while i was waiting, installed the twin SPAL fans i bought,
APEXI AVCR boost controller,
and Modified 60mm tophat,
had the front cut off the tophate and welded an extra lip on it to stop it flying off,
much bigger bore now
pictures to follow soon, should have the bumper back on it tomorow,
Its also booked in for an exhaust so will be coming together soon,
Wont be at pv07 sadly as not got the motervation to finish it before hand but will be at later shows,
pic tomorow

Your going to have problems with that tophat mate i am sorry to say
you have cut it in the wrong place, you need to have a lip otherwise on high boost pressure it will just blow off.
The reason why they have rolled end.
