Well in these photos it is a 1.6L. I have now put a 2.0L init. I am running a complete aftermarket ecu, Link Storm. No problems starting hot or cold.

Main reason I moved the battery and airbox was because of how I ran the intercooler piping. There would be colder air there but only significant if you removed the headlight.

i ran a piece of 4" pipe roughly a foot away from the turbo (yes my intake is 4")



ill let the intercooler worry about cold air

Agreed.

4" pretty big! how bigs the charge piping?

Looks like it's not a cold problem its leaning towards the battery, the car wouldn't start at all this morning .Just cranked over and over ,did all the checks like check fuel ,spark , vacuum lines etc just not enough cca, soon as the missus came home it jump started straight away.

I still got the warranty card 4-july-2010 good for 36 months, i might see if i can swap it for AGM Optima yellow top.

Just to get back on topic. I have fitted the front doors and front guards from a wagon to my sedan and the are identical.

So it is confirmed with out a doubt that the swap over at the front anyway.
