Vr6 intake tube

[virtuoso23 10]

Hey guys,

 

Does anyone know where I could acquire new or second hand the Intake elbow hose.

 

Mine has seen much better day's.

 

The only one I have found is by 42 Draft Designs. To be fair it looks high quality but I'd rather an original.

There are two types, a rubber one which tends to last well, and a later plastic part which can crack very easily. I think both are no longer available new, but there should be plenty second hand.

 

I looked into the 42Draft part for my own car, but they couldn't guarantee it would fit a 2.9 UK spec Corrado without modifications as it was made to fit the 2.8 VR from the Golf. Some sites that sell it state that it definitely won't fit, others that it will - on the end I decided not to take a chance due to the cost and import duty.

 

I guess your mileage might vary, or there might be others on here that have it fitted who could help. I think the problem is the location of the strut tower relative to the intake angle, and the custom part metal, so not flexible.

I think i may have the intake hose left over from My 19.000km 2.9 dizzy ABV '92 engine around somewhere.

I'll have a look and see I I can find it and he back to you.

Cheers-Andrew.
