Unless thats the one modified for 1600cc injectors, most likely nothing.

There is a guy selling fuel rails on ebay for 189 they look to be decent quality, can't vouch for him at all.

I dunno what they do now, but they were milled on a vertical mill with a $150+ three-step bit that was very hard to get.

Most people do not have such equipment or have access to them, thus the current price level.

I have the k2rd rail on my car right now. Its a VERY nice piece. Fits perfectly and looks just the same. I believe you get what you pay for, so why skimp on something like this?
