NB 1.6's are very foreign to us. I would try the 1.8 wiring diagram all it does is read tach and intercept the afm signal find the afm in and afm out and the tach pinout along with the ground and you will be done.

ok ... thats the easy bit though... on the backside of the safc1. you have to chose cartype (i think) and one more thing... so what configurations do i do on the backside??? thx a lot so far and best regards!!!

you can use a vortech and call it a day... the vortech can be used on nb eu models since they have a return fuel line.
'don't forget doing some timing mods (fm timing wheel for nb)

Some have used it, and they are not very nice for the car... can't remember why.. just some sensor issues...

[ps Be sure you don't run lean... vortech on a NB is doable, but please check with wideband...]

Well you select afm type and wether or not you have a TB, also you need to look up wether you have a linear tps or on/off like the rest of the 5speed 1.6's. And wether your afm is rising voltage or falling voltage this is pretty simple. Also you can run safc with vortech i found it helped me to lean out top end once i went into closed loop.
