manifold sounds alright... if you've got enough cash... if not then its just cheaper to save up and buy a bigger engine

Quick update now!
Baught an performance manifold for a 1.4 16v sport for £180 off ebay! adds 20 bhp apparently, so my car will be running at a 115bhp come this time next week! got some pictures of how the car was when i got it on the way now! found my phone, yipee!!! but left my usb at my car, so cant upload new pics until tomorrow night! Next upgrades are a new 4-2-1 exhaust manifold, decat, backbox and hopefully, send it away to get r1 carbs fitted on it by the summer! am going to try and get it up to 170bhp by october, but im strapped for cash atm! My cousin, who has had loadz of corsa's sais hell sell me some stuff for mine! hes had 5 corsa's and has kept the performance parts off them all! with a decat, back box and an exhaust manifold would i be pushing it to get 130bhp at the flywheel?

hi lads, wanting to know if a performance intake manifold would be a direct replacement for the standard one?
