Are bike carbs any less powerful than car carbs?

Power sounds about right to me for the spec, its only carbs and a exhaust. And has no one thought that this guy might be honest, unlike every other corsa you see for sale with rather optimisitc power figures .

These arent throttle bodies, there bike carbs. A lot cheaper and not as good. Theres a reason throttle bodie kits cost £1-1.5k. You get a lot more than just the throttle bodies.
