I've got a 1983 Gli 1800 Cab and it is fantastic!

How is vibration dealt with on the rigid 6 bolt manifold?
Is there some sort of flexi pipe between the downpipes and the exhaust?

Vibration is usually due to the rear engine mount is on its way out. As for the flexi pipe, there isn't one on a mk1, but on the mk2s there are.. I don't find any issues with my cabs on vibration, but then again I have replaced most parts on both.... so they really are like driving new cabs...  :smiley:

the Mrs used to have a 1986 GLI convertible, it was however an import!  not that it made a difference, but it was a nightmare getting parts for it!
power wise it did seem a little more responsive than the current rivage she has.
