On the TTstuff site it states the ATC engine is for Quattro.Other codes but not ATC for FWD.
My car is 2000 FWD with ATC engine code build date 07/99...kinda confusing .Don't want to order the wrong one.Or am I just outta luck?

Wasn't aware of the vacuum line issue, but why >

would you even assume a VW MAF would work, based on engine code (really though, just further makes my point) - I have the same problem - VW MAF won't work in my AWP, but that's an 'electronic thing' (ECU related - more or less), & not a primary design characteristic, such as 180FWD or 180Q - although you are clearly correct about the vacuum lines - AND there are definitely MORE differences - but even with the VL's, this may be minor, with respect to the Samco Intake - I have a plug in an unused VL, for instance (earlier version of Samco?).

I had to reroute some hoses on my car>>>
when i installed my Samco...my 225 is a non-esp car, and the routing is different from ESP cars...not a big deal...just be prepared with the right sizes or prepare to go to the autoparts place lots...hehe....

worked out well..
only about an hour to install, removal of the metal elbow is the worst part, and re-fixing the vacuum line at the bottom..
cheers n good luck, i'll put up some pix in a day or two in my picture poster
