Your firm belief is wrong. My car is living proof of that, NO vibration! 
Nope. The difference between the euro non-turbo 617 and the turbo 617 as far as the drivetrain can tell, is nothing. The USA got all the turbo engines and you and I both know MB thinks power-hungry Americans are too stupid to drive a stick. |
no one sells a kit with cut driveshaft and cut linkage for $450, thats what it is worth to me, if it doesnt sell then I wont spend the time to build one up.
I have seen 10 posts of people with vibes and one (yours) who have it fixed. the vibe is caused by a harmonic and it is on the engine side as it is consistent with RPM. if your cure was completely valid it would be repeatable. Please give us the recipe
I dont know MB's thinking you are correct. but are there turbo 4 speeds out there? and my turbo starts boosting around 1800 RPM, so there is a difference as a NA would not almost push the car at 1800 making it seem to this stupid american that I can run lower RPM. surely someone could have ordered one if they were available. In reality it shouldnt even be a problem if you shift at 3200 you wouldnt even know it was there
