How that is part of the no throttle response i will never know as long as my car works after he does his magic. He did nearly fall over when he saw how choked up it was at 200,000kms. Down to about 50% in the cross section.

I have a local mechanical in Gympie I use, however I will get a few quotes I think.
Is it only the inlet manifold I have to worry about or do I have to get the exhaust done as well?

The best thing is to encourage new car purchasing. i constantly hear people talk about 'how well we must be doing' for all these new cars, but it is a great thing because almost without exception newer cars have better emissions. if we were all still driving around in Belmonts, Geminis, XB falcons and the like imagine what the total fuel use would be!!!!!!!
