I am totally positive that the ports wont match up to a VW 16v head,
see that's not just an Oettinger intake...it's an Oettinger 16v
cylinder head.  Or did everyone just realize this and never mentioned
it. :)  Chances of coming into one of these systems is remote at
best, but it is designed to sit on an 8v block (with different pistons
probably).
