okay guys, ive brought powerbox for my 1.4 anyway ive got upper section of old manifold off then started to get throttle body off n now im stuck. do i need some sort of blanking plate? looks to me between throttle n lower inlet i will need a blanking plate, also do i have to remove lower inlet? and also how will i get all the wires n pipes to reach the throttle body when it over the other side of the engine? any help would be highly appreciated thanks

i reckon PRICER's The man u want to speak to mate.

right first thing i have to say is fitting a power box is a PAIN IN THE ASS!!! and yes you need a blanking plate to go on the bottom side of the manifold, and all the wires will reach no problem, you also have to cut and remove the inlet pipe thats below the manifold aswell because where it comes up out to the filter its in the way for the throttle body, you will need to extend your brake vacume pipe, and the sensors will need to be all T-pieced together so they can mount to the power box aswell, take a look at my project thread, its a bit hard to explain. but you should see the few pipes that iv had to extend. oh also the water pipes that went to the throttle body just need connecting together. and no leave the lower inlet alone you dont have to remove it.

thanks for that mate, i have a better idea now. i need to make blanking plate for the side of the inlet them. just wondering now how i get the wires to the throttle? ill have a look at your page anyway, cheers pal

the throttle goes behind the power box and it should reach round easily enough, well mine did anyway.

right had to extend wires to reach throttle, then started it n it was stalling itself, so i checked the wires again n i wired them wrong soo redone then and guna goo for a run today to see if all is okay

Is the power box for your car the same as the gsi model? I'm having a really hard time trying to find one!

YES 1.4 and 1.6 engines are the SAMEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!
