does anyone have one of these fitted to their car and if so how effective are they, and does it make a difference to throttle response and petrol consumption? .....thinking of getting one, also how easy are they to fit?(got a corsa b sxi 1.2 16v) cheers.

Unless you have so many mods that you need to alter fueling and air ratio etc.....dont even bother with these.

Puffy, they will work better on standard engines than performance ones, they lean off the mixture and so give better fuel consumption. On a modified engine you will need more fuel for it to work.
I had one on my old engine and they genuinely do work, get a few more miles to the gallon and it seemed to breath better top end. Dont expect miracles, but they are usefull if you do alot of miles.

Better top end pull, but fuel economy is no better.
