    Absolutely. You could even get away with not having the GH intake manifold by modding the stock carb intake with a custom adapter and bolt it down (theoretically). I think the GH turbo ran dished piston and had a specially boost referenced distributor (as it wouldn't be getting vacuum under boost) and its own cam. My friend ran into a problem of not being able to source the factory air box assembly - and even if he did, finding the correct filter element was near impossible. So, I gave him the air box from a dead Cordia turbo, pulled out the air flow meter and it worked very well. It still looked factory but had 2 advantages - bigger internal air volume and finding a replacement element was simple.
