I have an article about all generations of Golf GTI, but on all CIS layouts inside this vehicles, the throttle body is on pulley side. So, Oettinger turned the intake manifold by 180 degrees. Does someone know, how this would be possible? Or, is the intake manifold from a different vehicle? It is for sure, that the long black tube from fuel distributor to the throttle body is a modified from the Golf GTI that years. Regards Helmut '80 Vanagaudi |
