Funny that, the guy doesn't even say what mag it is.
Should be a no brainer, VL is a tiny bit quicker but is ultimately a mid '70s Opel with a fancy motor. |

Well I hope they aren't racing VLTs with a 2.77.
 More than likely the car pictured is a manual/MPI S. |

ea t5 vs commo t5 = 3.50 vs 3.58 for 1st gear
and the diff ratios were 2.92 vs 3.45 lol and they were pretty much neck and neck for all the tests they did

Can any one explain how there is 10 years differnce between an EA and a VL like they are going on about in the article?
VL 86-88 EA 88-90(or 91??) Never mind, just worked it out.. they are talking about the VL being based on the VB. El comprehendi now.
