Are you talking about the head or engine?
What engine is in your car? |

he wants a lag TB to go on jhis 1.4 energy chet.
Sam you just need the TB not the air intake system (airbox). You also need to bore the manifold out to accept it. |

yes it goes stargith on but you need to bore out the intake hole to get the benefit. |
