Jenvey (which SBD + Velos use) or Lumenition throttle boddies are better in my opinion with race spec management!

is this the same as what Patrick had. it retains the OE ECU and airflow meter.

for TB go SBD (not really good for road) or QED
the regal ones are not very good, there just like the Mantez powerboxs, i look at a 1.6 corsa with them on.
if u look on MIG web theres a full engine 2lt 16v with TB the full setup (engine box TB loom mangment etc etc) for 1200

the idea is to make it as quick as poss without majour work , cams would be good, cant be assed with the work of changing pistons etc.
will find out soon, looking at the car on friday.
