Hi all, my first post here, hope to get some good answers.

The thing is my R32 is a 2003 Euro type imported from Germany to Iceland.
Completely stock atm, except for flapper mod.

I have recently purchased EVOMS V-Flow intake from the US. I thought there would not be a difference in anything engine related, but of course the MAF and throttle body size is different.
EVOMS tell me that I can fit the V-Flow with my Euro-spec MAF and throttle body so that in it self is not a problem, but I would like to do this the proper way.

Since I live in Iceland we only have four R32 cars here and I have no engine specialist that deals with them on regular basis.

I really need your help with the best way to fit a 3" MAF sensor and throttle body to my car.

So the questions are, is it possible, and if it is possible what is the most OEM and safe way of doing this without damaging anything?

I have no other place to turn, so please HELP!

Well, the intake itself is not the problem, I have everything I must have.
The thing is I want to get a bigger MAF sensor and throttle body. I have been snooping around trying to find something out and I have seen a few guys that have been using DSG or TT/A8 (if not the same) MAF sensors.
So the thing is, will I get a constant CEL if I do this or is this in general possible?
