Seen a few pictures of these inlets where once fitted they just block the ICV flow. How do they idle?

Lumply? You don't need to do that. The wires will reach.

But why block it?

I think your on about the EGR valve Stu_22, and the reason they are blosked of is cuz it doesn't really do any thing, but if you don't block it off the ECU will register a fault and car won't run right.

You still need to get the wires to the ICV, although they will reach with a bit of a tug, I decided to extend the wiring loom instead.

Wrong and Wrong.

It is there for a reason, but not needed. If you have the EGR feed correctly installed back to the mantzel/dbilas, you won't get a fault.

and the wires need shortening once pulled out from the rest of the loom.

If the mantzel/dbilas ones blocked the path the car wouldn't idle. iirc, they have a cut out.

Dbilas and mantzel manifolds use the same idle control valve as before.....nothing changes really
