One laguna throttle body but using a later megane stepper motor for added value! (cross swap at the scrappy :wink: )
One megane inlet from a later E7J revsion, has the extra mounting bracket necessary for my phase 3 engine management stuff:
One laguna tb airbox hose. Good for attaching a nice big cone to the end and getting some decent airflow into the engine rather than the restrictive panel filter and OE airbox job.

Decided to give everything a clean so stripped the tb and cleaned it first. This is what it looked like when i got it home.

Then after a clean and strip. Notice the wires are different colours. This is because i removed the old injector plug and used from a meggy tb at the scrappy because the laguna wires were in poor nick:

Half way through its clean up:

Didn't take a pic of it finally done but it looks miles better. Also flushed out the rust inside the coolant passage.
Now for the quiz question :D
First prize to who can guess what this is at the bottom of the inlet manifold. NOTE: this is normally blanked off on other E7J revisions.
