Hey

I'm planning to start helping my C16XE breathe easier, but I need a overview of what parts is needed to do that. Is there someone here who has done this?

As far as I know I need a lower inlet manifold from a X14XE/X16XE to manage to fit the powerbox, does that lower inlet manifold fit on the C16XE without any hassle?

Is there any other parts I need to change to fit the powerbox?

have you already got the power box? because when you buy a dbilas inlet you get a small blanking plate that blanks a breather hole where the top inlet manifold normally attaches.

Nope, havent gotten any parts yet.

 

[Matthew]

how much you looking to spend? then i could advise you on what in my opinion is best for the money.

If I could get away with something cheap like this + extra parts I'd be happy since I have to refurbish the engine a bit and change the exhaust.
So I guess my budget would be around 500GBP for the breathing.
