it will be digifant, look on your airbox, is there braided wires things or a black electrical box of tricks? if it is the box thing you got digi. if not then k-jet. but yours will be digi cos k-jet was on early 8v's.

Dont know about ashley exhausts, 168 bar sounds cheap, is it a full system? also get a k+n panel filter and drill your airbox for more induction howl!

Ask dizzie about a mk3 interior he has just done this so sorry i dont know cost etc

Cheers 8v..  Why drill and not go for a induction kit?Is it cost or does it have the same effect..


And the ?168 is for a full system. Manifold back i think.

coz i dont think you can get an induction kit to fit an 8v only a replacement panel which costs ??? so people drill the box for a cheap and easy way of getting extra bhp/noise.......i maybe wrong
