I've got one on the way off an xe, and i have an spi engine so when it arrives i'll let you know if it goes in mate. Looked pretty snug in the xe so hopefully it should fit nicely in my spi lol

i got one that runs very high across the back and it fitted with my 2litre 8 valve and still fits with the saab turbo lump, thats your best bet is one that rusn across the back

well an xe one will fit pretty much anything, it rubs on my turbo cover slightly but will be good for what you have

The one i have rubs slightly on the top of my SPi, think its designed for an XE which sits slightly lower (SPi intake is massive).

Also, i found that where the relay box is bolted to the strut tower, there is a little bolt that gets in the way. Thinking of grinding it off myself and relocating the relays.
