Very interesting article, I haven't heard about
before. I have an article about all generations
of Golf GTI, but on all CIS layouts inside
this vehicles, the throttle body is on pulley
side. So, Oettinger turned the intake manifold
by 180 degrees.

Does someone know, how this would be possible?
Or, is the intake manifold from a different
vehicle? It is for sure, that the long black
tube from fuel distributor to the throttle
body is a modified from the Golf GTI that years.
