1991 1.8 carb cabriolet.
The toilet bowl manifold is knackered and so I need to replace it with something a bit better.
I'm assuming the mk1 GTI had a better manifold?
Or will the mk2 one with the dual downpipe fit?
Thanks everyone
Andy

Some can be removed with heat
Some snap and have to be drilled out, with heat applied first then Penetrate oil. If you are on the bottom looking to the manifold as in under the car, left handed drill bits and a reversible drill work well.
What I have done to my 90's 1.8 Digifants are the following to replace the Crappier Cracked manifolds that were cost reduced engineered.
Pacesetter Header, that had to be modified to clear the sway bar. (heat and a large pipe to move it.)
A g60 Manifold that was 4-2, and a dual down pipe from tttuning, Pricey, then I salvaged a g60 manifold and dual down pipe from the breakers, and modified it to be a 4-2-1 worked well.
cracked single pipe manifold.
The newer down pipes had to have a bung welded to the right side to insert the o2 sender, whos wires had to be extended.
g60 salvage with what I cut out from a newer golf..
remade and repurposed with my crappy welds to mock up
The Raceland SS header was going to go on my blue one after it's 25 years were met as I could remove the Catalytic pervertor could be removed….
. it still would need the bung moved, and to be honest moving it to the right side made it a lot easier to change when bad.
What do Divorces, Great Coffee, and Car Electrics all have in common?
