• The TDIClub classifieds section is a heavily trafficked section of the forum that encompasses want-to-buy (WTB) and for-sale (FS) threads for the entire world. Due to the demanding nature and fast pace of this section, it is imperative that you know and understand the rules. It is also important to remember that this is the only parts classifieds section.

    Cross-posting and posting classifieds in the regional sections (except the dedicated thread in Ontario) is not permitted.

    Multiple items should be sold in one thread. Make sure to provide a description for all items in your post along with pictures and prices. If you start multiple threads with individual items, they will be locked or combined at the discretion of the moderators.

    Here is a quick outline of the classifieds section rules. If you don't follow these rules, you subject yourself to thread deletion, thread combination, infractions, or posting privilege revocation.

    Thread titles:
    • Put FS or WTB in your thread title. This will let other users know if you are selling or buying.
    • Briefly describe what you are selling. Thread titles have limited space. Be as descriptive, yet succinct, as possible.
    • Put your location in the title.
    • If space allows, put your price in the title

    Title example (single item): "FS: 2004 Mk4/BEW cylinder head - Portland, OR - $500"
    Title example (multiple items): "FS: MK6 fog lights, front bumper, headlights, grill - Detroit, MI"
    Title example (car part-out): "FS: Mk3 Jetta parting out engine & interior - Dallas, TX"

    Thread text descriptions and pictures:
    • All for-sale threads must include pictures of the items that you are selling. One picture is sufficient, but multiple pictures with different angles will help buyers. A picture is worth a thousand words. If you don't know how to post pictures on TDIClub, see this thread: http://forums.tdiclub.com/showthread.php?t=286691
    • All for-sale threads must include a description. We don't charge per-word, so be as descriptive as possible. The more information you can provide, the easier it will be for buyers.
    • All for-sale threads must include a price. Auctions and bidding are not allowed. If you want to auction something off, use eBay.
    No picture, no price, NO SALE!

    Thread maintenance/updates/bumps:
    • When you sell something, update your thread with "SOLD!" Moderators will close the thread and update the title.
    • If you have multiple items for sale, update your thread as each item has been sold. When everything has been sold, updated the thread with "ALL ITEMS SOLD!" Moderators will close the thread and update the title when all items have been sold.
    • If you bump your thread, please delete old bumps by clicking on EDIT and then deleting the old bump. This will reduce clutter in your thread and make it easier to read. It also makes you look less desperate.
    • If you drop your price, please update your first post in addition to posting the new price. If you would like the thread title changed, click on the report post icon and let a moderator know what you would like the title changed to.

    Moderator intervention and infraction points:
    Moderators will be monitoring the classifieds section. If a moderator determines that you have not been following the rules listed above, corrections will be made and infraction points will be assessed to your account.

    What is an infraction point? Simple - it's a system of keeping track of user behavior. A moderator can assign a point value based on the severity of the infraction, as well as an expiration date on the points assessed. If you accumulate a certain number of points, the system will auto-ban you for a predefined amount of time. The more points you accumulate, the longer your ban period will be.

    One example of points is as follows: multiple threads will be combined into a single thread, with the number of infraction points assessed corresponding to the number of threads merged. If we merge four threads into one, then you will be assessed four points that expire in 30 days. When you reach five points, the system will auto-ban you for one day.*

    *This is an example based on the current infraction system structure. We reserve the right to modify the infraction system at any time without notice or updates to this announcement.

    Thank you for your cooperation, and good luck with your sales and searches! :)

D24 intake manifolds!

Hi all. I am looking to see if there is any interest in d24 intake manifolds modded to fit the TDI. These manifolds have a 3" plenum and long smooth equal-length runners.

A couple years back I adapted one for my ALH and loved it...so I bought up the other ones I could find. These will be cleaned, cut, welded, and "D" ported to match the tdi intake ports. The inlet can be made on either the driver or passenger side.

I am looking to get $350 for a finished manifold.

honestly I would love to see a before and after dyno to see exactly what gains it yields... obviously its relative to other mods and fueling.

An underfueled engine would probably see no gains. An overfueled (smokey) car would see noticable gains due to improved airflow and more complete combustion.

Personally, I dont like a smokey car. My car already had more airflow than fuel when I installed this manifold so I didnt notice much of a gain. But, now I can push more fuel before i get smoke. It obviously flows much better than a stock alh or even a PD manifold.

I think this would really compliment a ported head with cam (which I plan on doing).

I would love to dyno one to see if it makes power.

I've been looking for an upgraded IM for my car. The PD130/150 IM is the most common upgrade out there. Any idea or thoughts on performance gains on this unit? I know it's tough to say because every car is modded differently.

What differences have you noticed in drivability between the stock IM and your D24 IM?

I did not notice a big difference... the reason being I was already underfueled when I installed the manifold. Since I already had enough air vs fuel... more air didnt change anything.

Does your car smoke when you accelerate hard? Then you would more likely see improvement from one of these. Honestly, I think its something you should do to improve airflow AFTER head porting/cam upgrade. I think the head ports are a bigger chokepoint than the stock manifold.

I would like to invest in some dyno tests, however, I dont have enough manifolds to make it feasible. These suckers are hard to find.

I am interested, but will your set up work with this turbo intake pipe:

http://www.idparts.com/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=99&products_id=981

Obviously I will need to adjust the mounting points for the OMI, but I just want to make sure there is enough clearance between the intake and firewall and no massive kink from the MAF to the inlet of the OMI.

Thanks,
Im not 100% sure but I would say probably not. using this manifold will require some tinkering/custom work if you want to use the stock airbox. I know others have done it so it is possible.

I have a totally different intake which parallels the turbo-to-FMIC pipe and has the air filter behind the passenger side bumper vent.

These arent a quick plug and play manifold like the PD ones are.

Are these passenger side in?
I can make it either passenger or driver side inlet. The unmodded d24 manifolds are open on both ends so I can make it inlet on either side.

The current ones I have are not modded to work on a tdi yet...I am waiting until someone wants one before I make it for this reason specifically. I will make it to the buyers request.
