Heres how mines set up (obviously the injector lines aren't attached!) The four injector lines can go in any configeration on the four top holes.
I assume the metering head blocks themselves are the same (?), I'm running the Mk1 1.8 GTI Metering head, Filter etc anyway. So you could do what i;ve done, set it up using the mk1 metering head, filter, and fuel lines for the moment, reconfigure where the filter sits once its running.
I assume hte 16V metering head block can jut be swapped with the 8V one on the airbox.
Not saying thats the best way to do it of course, ideally filter shouldnt be up against the slam panel!
oh yeah, and TAKE YOUR CAPS OFF MATE! lol

mk2 16V:
however….
The supply line appears to have a solid end, however if using Richs lines and the mk1 end yours should end like mine.
and as the fuel filter is further upstream it doesnt have the short filter to metering head tail that the mk1 GTI has. Easiest way is just to connect it up as you can see in my pic, using the 8V filter to metering head tail. If you want to move filter to a better position its prob advised.
I keep meaning to.

Yeah that longer pipe for relocating the filer is a good idea. Where would the best location be for the filter?

On my scirocco its going somewhere inside the scuttle using the bracket which originally held it onto the metering head.
Rich,
Could you replicate the mk1 filter to metering head pipe in braided making it around 600/700mm long?

Need a show of hands where the best place for the filter is, then I can sort out lengths. The short filter supply tail would be retained I presume but the supply pipe could incorporate that also.

hen mine goes into body shop soon i'm goign to take out the line and replace anyway Rich, so i'll have a play with where best/neatest location it. Hoping to location in exact same location as currently but upside down and on other end of airbox. :dontknow:
Rich, Would it not be worth getting a banjos mounted on the ends of your replacement lines , then the old section could be ditched. Or is it more difficult than having the current pipe ending?

Having said that I don't sell many of the 16v conversion lines - sell lots of the original GTi lines - so is it worth investing the time? probably….
