You mean above zero temperatures?

Still no resolution to the poor running, given I have had solid 2 hours to work on it in the last 2 weeks, but, we have confirmed that.
- There are no vacuum leaks
- All sensors report good operation (tested as per VAG procedures)
- New FPR installed and I blew the return line back to the tank and it "felt" relatively restriction free.
The only thing I have not checked is actual fuel pressure at the rail and that is the next thing to be done.

What does the port under the "audi" for? I am talking about the two bolt flanged port...
Nice piece!!

That's the coolant outlet. The street version of the Sport manifold has the water manifold cast into it.
The rally varsion (like James B's car) has a seperate water manifold but same look on top.

Oh wow! I am not sure if I would like my intake manifold at 180 degree's constantly, but the one piece design sure is cool!!
That thing is cool. Can you take some pictures pointed into the plenum, and perhaps some pictures of the runners from the inside?
I like how all the inlets to the head are all round ~5/8ths holes instead of the goofy 7a manifold oring thingy

Nice intake Martin!
It sucks to hear that the driveability issue is tricky one. I've been burned by these sorts of problems before and thought, arrrhhh why didn't I see that earlier! It's always one little piece of data I overlooked while searching for something more common. I hope you find it soon. I'm interested to hear how that engine performs.

Well done on you inlet manifold Martin!!!!!
Now the race is it to find a throttle housing between us. They are available but 1400 Euro.
I had a quick play to see if anything else will fit, but everything so far is too small :(

Thanks,
I had a quick look and will most likely go with an adapter plate if I can't find anything bolt on.
Have you checked any of the Porsche throttle bodies?

Not yet, the other issue is that the throttle cam works in reverse to all the other audi throttle bodies I have looked at.

What do you run for an intake manifold/watermanifold gasket?

I have got a gasket on it's way to me Martin if you are struggling, I can sketch round it when it lands and send it over.

Or a scan if you have a scaner large enough. I can then have someone cut one for me.
Thanks for the offer!

Update:
Spent 5 hours last night at Craig's shop trying to figure out why Motronic was choosing to run 10-13%CO.... this is with all of the inputs functioning correctly. We even turned down fuel pressure to 3 bar with same results... It just refuses to run properly.
Threw VEMS in there for lough, without wideband, and base map and touching anything it was running 0.5% CO and MUCH MUCH better. At least it will not idle.
So we are still scratching our heads. But, looks like I am going with VEMS from now on.
Sad to say but Motronic beat us to submission.
Waiting for USB-serial cable so we can hook up to VEMS, good times ahead.
Cheers

Long shot but you might want to double check the vmap settings?

I would but it ran the same on stock computer with stock MAP sensor. doh!
Anyone want a Motronic with VMAP and 034 GT3071 chipset?

Feeling is that even though we had 3 mafs to try all of them might have been faulty.
That is the only variable that changed between Motronic and VEMS as far as inputs.
