Congrats! 
All you need to do is find is a used Scirocco 16V intake manifold. 
Easy!

My best advice to you before you start building this motor is to 
research everything very well and take your time with it! Pay as much 
attention to detail as you can, the end results will pay off emencly 
for you.
