I used an Audi Fox dual outlet manifold and down pipe for the perfect fit. The VW Fox is almost the same thing. There is a special tool for removing the "C" clips. Just a note, that this 4 > 1 manifolds are the worse flowing of all the I4 designs that VW made. You can use a series of wedges to remove it but I would stongly suggest getting a dual outlet manilf with theh 12mm copper nuts.
