my mate has got the dbilas inlet manifold on his sri and its ace.i think people have had big problems with the dbilas tb's , but i would say the inlet manifold is good. if you ask cossvaux in sheff, they'll recomend it above all its rivals.im gonna get one on my 1.6. i dont know if its worth it on a 1.2 though.

i'll ask then, what exhaust and 'induction kit' do you use to get 10-12bhp on a 1.2??? You know fuck all my friend, especially about the CAT. You dont bin it when MOT time comes round, you just swap it back over, its a piece of piss.

If thats what you want to think Cybermonkey24 then you think that. I dont give a fuck what you think about my opinions etc as i had all the rolling road sheets to prove these power gains and was told by 2 different companies that decat would not really be an option due to the positioning of the cat on the corsa C. Doubt me all you like, i had proof, thats all i need, i have nothing to prove to you.

The thing is i havnt been hearing alot of good about the dbillas inlet manifolds?
Ciuld u let help me out is this any good? i mean 20bhp cant be that bad?

Have to agree, the exhaust headers on the Z12XE and Z10XE are welded directly to the top of the cat, the slightly older X variants have bolt off cats allowing a downpipe to be fabricated to it to the manifold (but I still reccomend using a sportcat).
I have a Dbilas manifold fitted to my corsa B
It is runnig quite poor at the moment due to idle control motor packing in and I havent had the ECU set up to the flowtec (running very lean between 3000 and 5500 rpm) but there is significant gains there already and I think it should have no problem getting 85-90bhp after setup

A guy who had the dbilas stuff on his 1.2 16v who had his car rolling roaded got 105 bhp @ the fly.
Thing you gotta remember is it includes a dastek unichip + mapping...
where as say buying a velo's torque tube and fitting it might only get u 15-20 bhp, but if u then chipped that as well it'd get u quite a bit more too.

i dont think they are as good as they sound.
i know a member of this site who was suitable impressed that my td kept level with his 1.4 16v with velos torque tube, chip, full exhaust and decat and filter. now mine got 99 bhp!!!
