They will fit but will limit the max power. Better low to mid range torque so would be good for 4x4 but not sports car.

They were fitted to Disco 2 and post facelift P38 Range Rovers. I believe they improved low end torque with no effect on headline BHP. They were fitted alongside a new engine management system (Bosch).

The ebay auction looks like only the top half - you need the bottom half and all the injectors etc etc before it's any use.
