    ive just purchased a 4 branch off ebay for my 2E conversion in my mk2, its on its way now. paid best part of 190 delivered, has flexi built in aswel they say its a race 4-1 but think basically its a 4-1 manifold lol. looks nice on pics, just hope it fits ok but at end of the day....i do work at an exhaust/tyre place so ill easily modify it if get clearence trouble due to the taller block.

    The open lambda boss was added for AFM & EGT Guage, the blocked off on wasnt used because it point downwards and the sensor would collect crap.
