what does an inlet manifold do exactly?

can it be changed easily enough to give fairly big power gains or cant it be modified on a 1.0 12v corsa

inlet hence in-let is the channel for air coming in to the engine,exhaust manifold is for the exhaust,sending burnt gas,s out throught to the exhaust.performance manifold improves the flow for incoming air by creating swirl and straights out curvs giving more power

Supplies the air/fuel mixture to the cylinders.

You're never going to see big gains on a 1 litre.
