technically the hardware for the Turbo kit, eg the exhaust manifold (being the only easy bolt on bit) will fit either 1.6 8V mpi engine.. And since the rest of the kit needs machining to fit like the oil return etc then it makes no odds really.. esp if your going to cheapskate it and use that bizzar dual rate FPR from brazil (i assume thats where your getting the kit from mvaux)
