The standard Inlet Mani's are very restrictive due to there design (Real tight bends Etc) However these new one's have a better design (More flatter/smoother Etc) Making the air intake very free flowing allowing more air into the Engine making it breath better and therfore making more power.Also due to them allowing more air into the engine they give an increased noise.

better air flow i believe which in turn will increase the fuel mixing ratio and improve power?

Well a lad on Corsa C bought one and fitted it and he highly recommends it.He said it really improves the pull from 3.5k right up to limiter,He also said that they add a slight grunt to the engine.The quality of them are superb and they fit slightly better then the Genuine Dbilas one's.

But yes i will give you my feedback once i have it Etc.I'll get some more closer in-depth pic's aswell.

Would a design similar to that benefit the C16 or X16, I always thought that the current boxy looking thing that is available as an inlet conversion was a bit to big?
