I was hoping someone could educate me again. I've been looking around for a stainless exhaust manifold and found a few on eBay, but they are all listed for a 1.8 mk2.5. Is there any reason why they wouldn't fit my mk2 1.8. m.ebay.co.uk/itm/221117152949Thanks |

might be where EGR tube hooks in.. That's correct. If you are just plugging the EGR hole anyway, then it doesn't matter. If you are keeping EGR, I think you can buy the EGR tube from the later car and bolt it on the the earlier EGR valve. Please research and verify that though. |

Will last not long before either the chrome falling off or the manifold to crack. Theres not much in the way of good quality manifolds for the mk2/2.5

This is the same one that I have on my car and it's fine. Mine was a mk1 1.8 and it was fine as I removed the EGR valve so didn't have to worry about the return outlet. |

What about the CAT and Baffle Box? I'm looking at this very same manifoold and 2:1 pipe but others have the 2:1 with CAT built in? |

The 2:1 with the cat built in was (in the US at least) for California emissions equipped cars. I'm not sure if that was adapted elsewhere in the world.
