will a quantum TD intake manifold work on a mk1 1.6? i'm converting my n/a to diesel and need one. i know the exhaust manifold doesn't fit but i can't find a definitive answer about the intake mani. thanks guys.
also is anyone has a intake manifold, oil lines, bov, and the elbow from the turbo to the manifold i'd like to buy them from you....
i find it hard to believe none of you guys know the answer, i would assume it would fit but before i buy one i would like to make sure.
It'll for sure bolt to the head, all 1.6D or TD have the same ports.
Not sure if it'll clear other stuff though.
I have a couple of the 90 degree inlet flanges that I want to sell.
Yes, it will work. You will need to swap the top block-off plate with the inlet flange. The inlet flange will also be straight instead of a 90° bend and so you'd need to make a custom tube to connect from the turbo to the intake manifold or source the golf/jetta flange and boot.
Both of my Quantum manifolds didn't even have the top plate drilled out. No block-off plate, just the cast metal.
I've also had in my possession an A-platform TD manifold that didn't have the side flange drilled out, just the top.
Not sure when they started just drilling the specific side, but apparently there are some of them out there.
