Bang for your buck they are alright. Some early ones had problems with mounting up to the head but i think they got all that sorted.
It will give you more noise, and look cool under the bonnet. Just dont expect too much in the power department.
If your looking for power then you should be looking for a BTB, racing dynamics, alpina, Hartge etc.
Although expect to pay at least three times more.

The hot tuning manifolds give 2 or 3bhp extra, sound sweet and look nice is that's your thing.

Can anyone suggest how to test if the boot lights are staying on with the boot shut?

K13, your link is broken. It just hangs for me (because of the *plug* in the link I suspect).
Try this: insert in small letters A U T O M A C into the *plug* element in the link and close the spacing up.
