Audi I5 intake Q

I have one...well, sort-of. It is a regular Audi 5k manifold. I don't know
if the turbo manifolds are any different. Visually, the bracing on the
inside of the curve is different, but I don't know about the runner size.

I wouldn't say it is "common" but it is a well-known G60 tuning trick to lop
off the fifth runner of a 5k manifold and weld on a VW TB plate. The 5k
runners are much bigger, so you don't have to port them. My heavily-ported
G60 head matches nicely with the 5k manifold ports.

If anyone wants pics, let me know. It isn't installed yet...
