[crossedmike]

good new might of sorced my self a stainless steel manifold and decat 3 months old never fitted as wrong engine haha so should be picking that up on 20th and have fitted for the rolling road doy

what was that from then?

apparently it was from a 8v ibiza 2.0 16v apparently the port didnt line up or has a difference on it so im happy

i think most of the 16v manifolds are designed for the KR engine from the mk2 golf, which is 15mm shorter than the ABF engine and thats why the downpipe fouls the bulkhead...

well known factory in germany called Tezet produce 4-1 manifolds specially for Golf mk3 ABF.
There are some ibiza/cordoba ABF cars with tezet manifold but never asked them about fitting problems...if they have them at all.

Isn't part of the fouling a LHD/RHD issue?

i recieved my hottuning manifold today. i stripped down the old manifold and found it was blowing. so i was glad i got a new one. Went to fit the new manifold and it was wrong. It is for a different car but looked very simalier but the ports were different. Had to put the old one back on with snapped bolts!! not happy but hey when the new one comes it will be a lot easier.

Did you manage to get a manifold sorted? If so, can you let me know where from. I'm wanting one for mine.

Cheers,
