Can anyone say what true effect these have on fuel consumption ??
And I'm not just talking about caning it for the first 3 months after fitting one !!

It should have no difference on fuel economy at all unless your old body had leaks in it.

Brilliant Mod that has dyno evidence that it increases power. Throttle response is certainly better!

Are they easy to fit? whats involved? Does it need to be set up in any way or is it a simple replacement part?

It's a simple four nut off and on job from memory. No set-up required in theory, with a zone wild chip it should work well.

New gasket would be the only necessary item I'd say.
