Wouldn't have thought so, they're likely to be designed for a LHD car, like the C20XE Lexmaul inlets were, they don't fit any RHD car.

I have fitted and set up a few sets. Inlet manifold is a very bad design but the tb's themselfes seem good. with a bit of work they can be made to work as well as any other option such as Jenvey etc...

I've got the Steinmetz set-up that is very very similar to the dbilas ones. The gains, with just the tb's were 24bhp on the x16xe.

Patrick on here had them on a 1.6 16v.
We always cained him about them not being proper TB, but in all honesty, they done well on his car. Heard of a few races with bigger cars, he done a 15.2 on the 1/4, but dont think he ever had it running properly right.
Had something 160 ish gee gees though. But as Dave said, the TB was the issue so much, it was the inlet, and I hated that "dblais airbox" too.

dbilat tb's are a big step backwards from what you have now.
