turbo or N/A?
(idle screw locations)
For the N/A, the throttle body has a screw on the top you can acces after removing a small boot or something turn that to adjust the idle.

The Turbo has it's screw on the BAC (bypass air control) valve it has a philips head screw on it where you can adjust the idle.

If you don't know what those are or where to find them I'll get you more info from my Haynes manual I just don't feel like looking through it. PM if you need more help I'll tell you where these idle screws are specifically.

I've seen a guy put mesh in his FTP spaces yes and I've hear dof white LEDs so why not red ones? Neon is to expensive anyway it could be done easy.
