8V Exhaust Manifold question?

[xavsbud at sprynet.com (David Winchell, II)]

My 82 with the 1.7L had the toilet bowl.  It sucked.  When I replaced mine I
bought the Euro manifold from TT and bought a new down pipe and exhaust
system from them.  Did the whole thing all at one time.  It made a VERY
noticeable difference according to the butt dyno.

HTH,

Dave

  Yes it has been confirmed that the dual outlet manifold makes more HP than
the toilet bowl. I don't know how much right off hand but it's noticeable.
Adding a TT downpipe increases the HP.
Basically, the toilet bowl is a restriction and other performance
modifications are pretty much useless until it has been replaced.
As far as I know your 1.7L 82 came with the dual outlet manifold.
I believe I have one, although condition would have to be verified, should
you still need one.

> 1) So what is the deal with the exhaust manifolds from the earlier a1? Has
it been confirmed that the make more HP than the toilet bowl ones? It seems
that they are preferred to the toilet bowl ones due to shear practicality in
the R/R department.
