does the 52mm and 56mm throttle body fit on the 1.8 turbo k series engine i know it fits all other n/a k series engine and gives 2-3 bhp. does any body know what it will give on the 1.8t

The slightly larger throttle body fitted to the 1.8 vvc 160 will probably fit the turbo, but I'm sure the turbo unit has seals within the throttle body due to boost pressure
