Everything is the same, straight in and straight out, the only difference is the wiring loom + ecu, depending on which 1.6 8v you have ? you may need the transponder ring,key chip and ecu. The E16SE/C16SE didnt have transponders.

Gearbox is the same - F13/F15
8v Mounts the same
Gear linkage the same
Charging loom the same
Exhaust will match up if you use the standard manifold ( 2 pot type )
