good thing about them is you can run them with standard management (obviously it'll run better with re-map) and use all the current pipes and air sensors. I was looking into these for my 2.0.

I have dbilas TB's on my 1.4 8v and they are sweet they sound really nice and throaty and it has a nice amount of torque too allthough it looks like you already have a lexmaul inlet manifold? you will probably not get that much more gain from the dbilas, not for the money anyway!

if you didnt use the plenum chamber with them and fitted either a custom filter or trumpets to them they wouldnt be much different.
alltho they are a bit like a carb with all of the fuelling jets removed and a big injector stuck in the end

i bet if you stuck some management on them with a nice set of cams youll get nicer power from them with the phelnum there to aid the torque.....
