\"SFi air box:
Early C20XE SFi boxes are small enough to fit without modification, later models had a different shape and need modifying to clear the bulkhead behind, to do this, cut the section out that is required and hot-glue gun a flat section of plastic and make sure its airtight (important). The Ecotec engines do not have a large box on the throttle body, hence no modification is required. C20LET Turbo engines have a different method, hence no modification is required (in fact this can be transferred over to the C20XE engines instead of modifying the SFi box). Also PVD sell a replacement part - a power cap (£95) that fits (looks exactly like the C20LET part).\"

No the SFi box doesn\'t fit
and the mantzel powercap also doens\'t fit you need to tirm the bulk head.
You need the ecotec pipe adapator from V-tunign or alike.
I have a supplier for these and can do one for £35 all in.

It\'s just the plate for the ecotec pipe to go on to, then I use 6mm nyloc nuts from halfords and washers, and a thin smear of bathroom sealant goes round the top of the TB and bolt it down, less is more though.
