Question Ashley manifold question

Hi guys first time iv posted in this section I think!

Its probably been asked so many time but im thinking of getting an Ashley afm25 manifold for my 'sport, It already has a 2 n a quarter exhaust from downpipe.

For those thats had um fitted are they worth the pennies? ?

What car is it for?

I bought an Ashley copy off eBay (which was actually good quality) for my efi 3i, fitted along with piper system. Made a fairly big difference. Sounded awesome too.

Think it cost me Ł90 delivered. Essentially any will work better than a cast manifold for N/A, as long as its not terrible quality.

This was just a simple 4-2-1, I bought it cause the standard front pipe kept cracking from engine movement, replaced with the copy and made a flexi pipe for it and away I went. Probably the biggest improvement overall. It just seemed to open it up nicely. The piper cam kit made less of a difference and gave more trouble.

Have you any pics of it fitted up at all??

I had a quick look on eGay and there's a sportex manifold for 99?
