Paular 112 Posted May 29, 2014 Report Share Posted May 29, 2014 (edited) Hello there, new to the site guys and got a question already. I have an OBD1 fitted in the nose of a MK2 which looks to have blown its head gasket. The SHRICK inlet is apparently sucking air where it shouldnt and the gasket has gone. Where can I get a gasket set for the SHRICK manilfold? Thanks Paul Edited May 29, 2014 by Paular Link to post Share on other sites
CALICO 130 Posted May 30, 2014 Report Share Posted May 30, 2014 (edited) I bought a load of new stuff from G-WERKS for my schrick when I had it but they went bust . Maybe try schrick direct.http://www.avl-schrick.com/index.php?id=2&L=1 Edited May 30, 2014 by CALICO Paular 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Paular 112 Posted May 31, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 31, 2014 Fingers crossed I might be sorted. Found a set from a German outfit http://www.bar-tek-tuning.com/VR6+dichtung+Schaltsaugrohr+SCHRICK.htmThey have been shipped so hope there are the correct ones when they arrive. Was tempted to pull the manifold off, sell it on, and replace with OEM but apparently these SHRICK units make big difference and didn't want to sacrifice any grunt. Had 2.8 and 2.9 VRS years ago but this one does seem to rev and howl like nowt else. (lthough the intake and custom decat probably help! Link to post Share on other sites
CALICO 130 Posted May 31, 2014 Report Share Posted May 31, 2014 Yes bar-tek are good from what I have heard. When I had my schrick fitted it reduced my 0-60 time by 1/2 a second so worth having fitted. Paular 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Started chewing over head work and cams (you know, while its off anyway ) but its plenty quick in a MK2 and I could see this becoming a money pit without some restraint.
