HotTuning Manifolds

[Naz]

Anyone fitted these to the ABF lump?- according to the ad, they dont fit RHD cars with Power Steering??

 

[kyle18uk]

Also interested in knowing this!

They can be fitted but require abit of messing about with.

 

[Naz]

am i right in thinking that the Manifolds on the VW ABF are the same as the Seat ABF 4-2-1?

 

[orangemuffin]

something gets in the way on the Ibiza......(streeing wrack???) flaps or dinky dave would know.

 

[kyle18uk]

Would it be the mk2 golf 16v manifold or mk3 golf 16v that fits?

No because the ABF is a "Tall Block" so you would have to extend the downpipe on the mk2 Golf I'm guessing.

I've the TSR 4-1 manifold which isn't made no more but a exhaust company called "Top Gear" now does a copy of it... well they did before, have a check.

If the exhaust states LHD then it won't fit because the Steering rack is in the way, even with the TSR I had to slightly modify the bulk head to make room for the downpipe because it's meant for a Mk3 Golf GTi.

Hope that clears it all up
