Ah yes, good question. I need this info too, although for a VXR AFM.
Vectra 1.9 CDTi airbox 55557126
Vectra 70 to 80mm joiner 90499547 (needed for VXR AFM I think)

Why not modify the airbox with an 80mm outlet like mine? Kinda defeats the object of the 80mm otherwise?
Edit: Mike - that part no. (90499547) is actually for a v6 80-80mm connector, it isn't a reducer

What is the 70-80mm part number then? Also, is there a post about how you changed your box to 80mm?

Imagine the 70mm hole was ground/filed/dremeled (delete as needed) out to 80mm !

Lol - I guess so. I imagine a 80mm connector was then bonded into place. Luckily my 80mm connector is a long one, so I chould chop a bit of that I guess. :)
I've ordered the box and pipe in my lunch break, so I should have those on Tuesday. I'll sort the 80mm outlet during the week ready for fitting at the weekend.
I assume the pipes required are the same as I currently have with the Apexi. 80mm 45 degree bend and a 80 to 60mm 90 degree bend.
For a standard AFM, change 80mm above to 70mm on both pipes.
