bonnet vent on the T16? there isnt one its rear engined....

the 205 turbo16 had a big bonnet vent to duct the radiator hot air.

You can fit throttlebodies to a tt conversion, its been done before. You wont get a lot more power, might help on the midrange and throttle response but I've never seen rolling road printouts to compare.

 

You also wont be able to fit the bonnet vent as your engine will get in the way

set of pulsar ones could be made to fit but it would be an arse ache to do the manifold.

theres a set of mikuni t/b's with45mm butterflys and 48 mm at the air box end there off a 106 gti would theese work?

also what are the megasquirt ecu's like what are the alternitives? how hard is to sort the loom out?

Personally I would look to put proper management on a TT first before looking at throttle bodies. This can release approx an extra 30 horses for you assuming the turbo and the rest of the car is up to scratch.

 

Throttle bodies can then be added later if need be and a custom airbox made.... it is going to cost you! However it can be done. Another alternative is to put a bigger inlet single throttle body on if it is more fuel you need. I know of a turbo'd Mi16 that runs successfully on a twin carb set-up too.
