Exhaust manifold mk1 cabrio 16v conversion

Post

Back to the top
Im doing a 16v (PL) conversion on my - 87 cabrio (LHD) and want to ask what exhaust manifold you recomended?  I have found that Ta technixs has one thats is pretty cheap, powersprint is another option: http://shop4race.com/en/cars/exhaust-system/collectors-by-car/volkswagen/138044_powersprint-exhaust-manifold-for-vw-golf-1-16v.html
They have a few options but only one seems to match the exhaust ports on the engine block.
 I seen earlier threads mentioning dubpower but dont know if thats still a thing?..

I went with the TA technixs one. Looks about right out of the box. Will update upon installation.

How did you get on with this?  I used the Dubpower 4:1 one (think it is the same as the other stainless ones) and the fit was perfect as was the noise…

I have now got it to fit and the overall shape worked but I hade to get the flange towards the middle pipe re-welded since it was rotated towards the underside of the car. I was No biggie since I hade to get the lambda sensor bung welded in anyway. :)
