Default Weber & Exhaust Manifold

Been browsing the net & trying to spend money I haven't yet earned, came across this carb upgrade Weber Carburettor Specialist, Weber Authorised Dealer, Fastroadcars, Weber Carbs, Fuel Accessories, Fastroadcars - WEBER 30 BDIC CARB KIT SKODA ESTELLE/RAPID 120/130/136 will it be any good, found another page suggesting either 26/28 DCD or 32/36 DGAV but can't find anywhere to get a inlet manifold from.

I also think the exhaust manifold is loosing me power & have seen on a couple of pictures what looks like a 4-2-1 tubular exhaust manifold, but cannot find anywhere that sells them has anyone any ideas?

Cheers

That carb will be an improvement over a worn jikov, though power output will only be marginal over a well set up jikov as it was made as a direct replacement. Ive fitted a couple of them over the years, and they are a reliable carb as long as you use an inline filter
Having said that i know someone who has a 2 litre pinto running on a jikov from a rapid
The exhaust you want is an Ashley system

Looks like there is quite a few 26/28 DCD or 32/36 DGAV around on ebay as mentioned in this article Tuning Skoda Estelles and other wastes of time... but whether a manifold is available or not is the question & are they going to be any better than the new one I posted.
