its designed for a 16v so it should fit, but you would have to get reduceers fitted to the correct size

is that not going to be a bit to free flowing ie causing it to run worse because the bore it too big, another way to solve the reducer problem is to just buy a 16v exhaust manifold and downpipe from a scrappers and  get yourself a 8v gti cam while your at it advance the timing slightly aswell to get the best out od the cam bolt it all together and jobs done  :cool: :cool:

How exactly would a 16v manifold fit the driver block?

well i would far rather spend my money on a gti cam and exhaust manifold before i got a full stainless system you will see a great improvement with the cam and manifold the stainless system will just make it sound a hell of a lot better and only give minimal gains!!! and sorry i meant 8v manifold  :laugh:
