Title: does anyone know if the sdi intake will clear a td pump?
Post by: RabbitJockey on August 20, 2008, 03:40:31 pm: looks like an na pump will fit quite nice, how ever it appears a td pump may get a little close.

Post by: RabbitJockey on August 21, 2008, 02:31:09 pm: haha that won't be necessary since i have a 1.6td, and i will soon have that manifold to try it with, but i mean if it doesn't fit i will just have to throw it int he recycling bin, no big deal.

u can see it in person ;)

that 1st pic is the SDI installed in quicksilver, daves old car.

it cleared the TDI, and iirc, the plenum is high enough to clear the idi aswell. I could go check, but u really cant line it up without having installed the lower alum piece.

Post by: flapjack on August 22, 2008, 06:19:04 pm: Looks like you may be able to flip an ABA intake manifold around.
Title: does anyone know if the sdi intake will clear a td pump?
Post by: RabbitJockey on August 23, 2008, 11:01:27 am: yeah it does, that would kind of be neat if an aba intake bolted to it.that would really confuse people that looked in that engine bay haha. but if the plastic *** doesn't fit, i'll make it fit

Post by: blkboostedtruck on September 02, 2008, 02:26:27 pm: have a riser made so it lifts the plastic intake up an inch or so?
you can make that work! just use some creativity !
you could ditch the studs and drill and tap the head for the older style valve cover?
maybe a heat gun to reform the plastic to make some clearance for the pump?

Post by: RabbitJockey on September 02, 2008, 03:47:49 pm: yeah i'm not worried about the valve cover at all, i have plenty of 1.6 valve covers i could stick on. it's the pump clearance i am worried about. a 1 inch riser may do the trick though, i'll have to wait until i have my td back though. ill measure on my dads car tho and see what all it will take.
Title: does anyone know if the sdi intake will clear a td pump?
Post by: RabbitJockey on September 02, 2008, 03:53:35 pm: also i think the picture makes the clearance of the studs look worse since i don't have any bolts holding the manifold to the head.
Title: Re: does anyone know if the sdi intake will clear a td pump?
Post by: RabbitJockey on June 22, 2009, 04:10:04 pm: so since i have the head off my td i tried fitting the head and manifolding, it hits the pump alot, theres no way it will fit on a car with a td pump installed, you would need maybe a 3 inch spacer and then theres no way the hood would ever shut. with an na pump it may work with a smaller spacer, maybe 1 inch or so, but it's not very promising. so sdi intakes for us idi people has been shot down, except maybe with an na pump, does anyone want to buy an sdi intake manifold?

Post by: RabbitJockey on June 22, 2009, 07:29:30 pm: even then i really question it, maybe a mk2 or mk3 would be a better fit
