Hi skull, great work on that manifold. I have one sat at home waiting for me to do something similar with. My plans may of changed now (1.8t).

Anyway i was looking at making a spacer for the throttle body maybe about an inch. I didnt do alot of investigating but bits form a golf inlet could be used to make up a tube as they are seperate bits. also i found that the standard tube is very flexible. It might be worth seeing if you can twist it round anticlockwise a bit, creating the gap but still coming round at the right angle to join the TB?

i will first put everything on the car, and then think about what to do next. i think two layers of heat wrap will be enough. this 10v TB is already half an inch wider out than the ace TB.

[QUOTE=Sküll;443749]sure, but then the rubber tube from the ke-jet injection is useless. making a custom tube would be mind blowing...

This uses the early Golf throttle body rubber to create a new intake hose for my 10v project...maybe the meter head section from the Golf would work with a customised section in between which would allow you to exploit the sighting of the TB a little...

[Skull]

interesting. i have one spare tube, so i will try something after the tubular will be on...

i have done some more work on the 2.3 TB

smoothed out



and sharpen up



now the back side. marked the shape of the IM hole





now i am driving aroud with the stock TB, damn what a difference.

the TB is finished. i hope to install the TB and the tubular till Tuesday.

the graphite wrap

[Skull]

too bad the pipes are too close to each other. no way i can wrap the others as nicely as the first one...

[Skull]

or maybe...

Looks good, its going to be tight on the other two branches!

i think i would just build a nice heatshield as Audi did with the 7A engine

[Skull]

that would mean hiding this masterpiece... naaaahhh
