hi mate, you will need to match the inlet manifold for the new throttle body, use a dremel to grind some metal off the inlet holes so they match the size of the throttle body inlets!  :smiley:

well i did notice a better pick up, it made it rev out a little quicker, combine this with a new filter and you should see a few more horses! its a pritty easy mod to do, once you have ported your inlet manifold just bolt the new one on! and enjoy!  :grin:
