no, airboxes are different. Older style airboxes from the 1.2/1.4 8v engines used an airbox which ran a pipe from the exhaust manifold if the air was too cold entering the engine. Newer types do not have this.

you just detach the pipe though, they are all the same size, i.e. he can use his existing top of the box with any other base from any other model
