Because a c16xe has a different throttle body, and a different throttle mechanism.
So its throttle cable goes into the front side of the tb, instead of the top on a x16xe.

i have got the throttle body fitted, the problem i have is the cable, i bought a new gsi one but it was almost double the length of my std one, so i had loads of snag in the cable so was just wondering which is the best way to run the gsi cable i have now as it is only about a foot longer then my std one
