    It should fit in fine as I helped s2driveruk fit one to his?

    have you checked the mounting lugs?

      What are the lugs?? Those "plugs" on the side?? That fit in 2 holes in the wheel arch?? They were in anyway, and the bolt under the turbo.

          Yes, should fit ok, I had one on my 3B the bonnet lining touches the top of the box but it goes down ok.

                3B,ABY,ADU Airfilterboxes have the same mounts.

                I have one from ADU/RS2 with 3" inlet in my type89 90 quattro 20v..... perfect fit

                good luck

                    Old thread, I just fitted mine and it does look odd, really a lot higher than the 3B one, but side by side it's a no brainer, glad I got it now!
