    Do you know the history of the car? Is it a 2 door that was used for hill climbs etc... If so the owner was Chris then Bill and it is a Mk2 GTI head.

    In regards to inlet manifolds look at this: http://www.vwwatercooled.org.au/newf...ad.php?t=28452

    Who have you had try to tune it?
    aust VW in Croydon. Great guys but seems there is a history between them and the car/previous owner which didnt end well.

    Car is a 4 door set up for track days. It was owned by Peter here in Melb. I think he did a few track days @ philip island. He did have it on this web site for quite abit and ebay.

    cheers

    I've never seen it running but I've been out to see it a few times. I basically have the same setup in my track car.

    At a guess a proper manifold and some dyno time is in order.
