When I got my Vig 2800 installed there was a combination of different things going on. First the only vibration I remember was that it reved more and the exhaust was louder. I thought I had more vibrations, but everything turned out to be normal.
Still working on my problem, the shop balanced the converter again, internally and externallly. Now I'm going back to a stock converter to see if the vibration goes away, then I'll narrow the problem down from there. I would recommend going with a good shop and a good "KNOWN" converter shop.

No problems. But I had vibrations before the converter install, I have them after, though maybe muted a bit. I think my engine's just rough in certain light-throttle applications. My exhaust is much louder after the TC.
