Thanks everyone for answers.
I am from Slovenia, so custom made options are not so good for me.

I want new manifold because i tought that this would give me quite good power gain for this price.
I am new to the cars and "tuning" so I dont know a lot, how to improve car and make more BHP from this engine. So i would ask you if you recomend something different to do with this ammount of money (200-300€).
Thank you very much, Ales

There's no BHP to be got, fit an ABF already, everything else is just delaying the inevitable ;)

I have talked to local "vw guy" and now we are searching for a new engine. ABF, 9A or KR (it is the best option, because of police)

yes, here are preaty nasty about custumizing cars.
friend got 560€ of penalty because of having different lights on his Ibiza. If you have customised something bigger (changed engine, put car in body kit or something like that) they can take your car and destroy it

but i think they dont know this well mk2 golf, to know which engine was in at original car  :laugh:
