I've read the whole thread guys and I still can't work out if these 18" Audi wheels will fit my mk4? They are 5x120 and et35. It is a blue golf with a 1.9 engine as I believe this makes a difference

The colour is the problem mate, if your car was Black, Silver, Red, Green, Orange, Pink, Purple, Yellow or White it would be ok :undecided:

Yes - but that creates the VTA type. (As long your aim is good).

The recirc is more environmentally friendly as it puts the fumes back in to the inlet for burning. Since the ECU is expecting the extra gas it leans the mixture off when the valve dumps. VTA makes the engine run extremely lean without these fumes - this is why VTA valves are folly and not recommended.

If your aim is not good you won't create a dump valve and you might be forced in to a nursing home by members of your family...
