I've just been told it's the VR6, but I remember hearing it's a pain to install as it does not fit?

If it does not fit then why bother trying to put it on.

Apparently it leads to better torque and power figures on the k04.

Default why don't you stick with something thats proven?

I don't see how you can fit a VR6 MAF into the stock airbox, I didn't actually try to do it but I have a VR6 maf and an airbox, and I don't see how it could be made to fit.

Default people that don't know the answer shouldn't reply... this is a common thing

been done many times, and yes it can be made to fit with the airbox, but you will need to drill a larger hole in the top.
