will a later inlet manifold fit my v2 as im trying to gain access to fit my aps top mount!

 

ill rephrase, does a 1.5 inlet give more room for top mount over phase 1?

 

IIRC, when people fit the v.3/4 or v.5/6 TMIC mod to their ph.1 cars, I remember people saying you have to cut down the IC-to-TB short pipe by at least 10mm to make the ph.1.5/2 TMIC fit in the shallower IM-to-bulkhead space on the ph.1.

So to answer your question, this implies that the ph.1.5/2 IMs must have a TB at least 10mm further forward (towards the front of the car) than the ph.1 IM (not sure on the exact amount of extra clearance though...)

 

1.5 Will give more room.

 

lol

There's the round-the-houses answer and the direct one

 

anybody got a 1.5 for sale?!
