manifold??????

I was given this manifold by a mate at work, he told me that it was off a piazza, just wondering if any knew this for sure and if so is it better than the standard one on the 4zc1, also wether the injectors will work with my car or are the different? Any help would be much appreciated cheers Brendan...
