Has anyone used one of these?

BBK 00-02 Ford Focus 2.0L Zetec 65mm TB High Performance Throttlebody

They are $250 bucks and say 7-10hp gain

Is it worth it?

Do you have to modify the intake to install this???

Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you
Joe

65mm tb are awesome! you don't have to modify the intake manifold for this to work however most make the intake opening the same size to match the tb. 7-10hp gain is a lie tho, 1-2 is more like it, HOWEVER the larger tb give much better throttle response and real wakes up the engine, its a good investment, I love mine [thumb]

Very good investment, they go on sale here somewhat often for a decent price. I've got the BBK 65mm, you'll have to slightly relearn that gas pedal foot, as skypilot said, it becomes VERY responsive. And if you have an aftermarket intake, gives it a nice whistle.

I just went on ebay and got a Intake Manifold - Smooth Seam Runner part 988F-9424-BE

I think this is supposed to be the one that everyone says flows better.

Anyone confirm this?

Paid $68.00 shipped.
