Can anyone tell me how much webbers are and do you reckon it'll give me much more horses. Are they worth it? I think it's probably cheaper than a new engine for my AE92. Thanks.

Webbies alone won't dish out a ton of hp.
They however are a necessity when engine is highly tuned.
Power all in all is a summary of all contributing factors working in harmony.
P.S. - They do work better than a OEM carbie you have now, even with stock engine - depending on what bias (power/economy) they've been tuned to.

ok - just so you know - new 2 x 45 mill sidedrafts to suit a 2t motor for examplke would cost about 1200 a matched pair ( NEW ) then you have to get the manifold to match ( add 250 - 300 ) then the linkage kit , 80 bux - then tuning ( 200 odd )
1200 + 300 + 80 + 200 = $1780
for that you could buy a import 4agze - maybe with stock loom and ecu from a jap disnamtler..
webers are good if yu have OLD SCHOOL stuff and what OLD SCHOOL power , otherwise for a corolla like yours - stick with EFI ..
youll be much happier with results

stu is spot on the money. i was quoted $600 each minus the chokes jets ect ect for the 2T - then you need manifolding, linkages, tuning ect ect - NOT worth it. EFI is MUCH cheaper.
but in saying that, it depends on your application...
