I've heard people mention them - spoke to a guy with a Tiger Kit car with a 2.0litre Zetec engine running twin webbers

what are they; what do they do? I'm assuming they're an alternative to Turbocharging/throttlebodies/supercharger etc but I'm not sure what they are or what they do? how do they work?

i had them on my corsa sound nice and slightly cheaper than throttle bodies but reguarly go out of tune and are a pain to set up . eat fuel! however bike carbs are a gud alternative to webbers
