Can't see that you'd get a 1.4/1.6, as it needs to fit over the 2.0, which ever one you get.

My strut brace on my 2.0 fitted my 1.4 16v.
Check the clearence over the top of the inlet manifold. If theres a large gap, chances are it'll fit the 2.0 (Just need to clear the Ecotec Pipe/Powercap of the 2.0).

My old SPARCO polished one wouldn't have fitted my 2.0. The X bar sat just over the inlet. It wouldn't even fit over a Mantzel box...
But my HP Raid sits about 2" higher, and doesn't even touch the Ecotec Pipe on my 2.0
