I stand corrected. Knew Steieny did some tuning gear, but never knew they done aftermarket inlet manifold/throttle bodie things (Same as Dbalis really).
Was never an available option in the UK.
Europe gets lots of different stuff. As i was saying to Lee the other day, GSi in South Africa is a 1.6 8v, they have 2.0 16v redtops with 50bhp, and also Supeys with 165bhp that we also dont get.

No, they are proper throttle bodies (48mm diameter of each one), there are 4 bodies for each one of the cylinder, there are 4 48mm butterflies, how else can I say it
The plastic cover is off a Corsa C

With the throttle bodies on and reprogrammed ECU by Steinmetz, it used to run 130bhp. Now many things have changed (engine rebuilt, pistons, cams, polished cylinderhead, compression ratio 11:1 etc), haven't rolling road'd it yet, but it must uns aproximately 155-160 bhp...
