why? I know the ECU's they use are a bag of balls as my mate has that on his Williams 1, but the rest of the kit seems just as good as any other.

They look a better deal than the omex shite, at least you get all the gaskets and linkages with the alpha stuff

Top comment from a guy who fits throttle bods every day ad is an expert on mark 1 clio tuning.

Fred:- Why are they shite? Who mentioned that im getting them? How many sets have you installed, what gains were achieved, who maped the ECU?

PMSL

wasnt the original question about a manifold anyway?!

by weber fitting gibbo, do u mean DCOE? i think it will be.

i got my DCOE one off ebay for £56, so get whatever u can mate.....a amnifold is a manifold when it comes to fitting.

DCOE type manifolds are fine, not the ultimate, but 95% of the way there, port spacing on the F7's is favourable for the DCOE flange.

THe webcon kit, the bodies arent the best (i have a gripe with the inlet trumpet options), but the ecu is actually very good. It takes a hell of alot of mapping, and you have to be an agent to map it, but it does make for a nice smooth drive.

The only bad thing is that all the kits i've seen on williams's have put out some poor power, but then again none of them were heavily modified.
