   Hang on a sec. . Did you just ask I you could 16v a saxo just by the inlet?
   
   I never knew you could add 8v to a engine by the inlet. . .
   
   You need to change the whole engine for a 16v, just search as this has been covered a lot.

   I'm guessing that you meant apart from needing the engine & inlet what else do you need to set it up.. so off the top of my head. Engine loom, vts unlocked ecu, 16v inlet, injectors & injector loom, 16v exhaust manifold & vts gearbox (optional)

    and out of all that, the throttle cable is the only thing really needed...
