was looking into a set of jenvey throttle bodies for the fiesta and noticed these on ebay...

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Jenvey-Quad-Th...item45f026c5b5

i know im normally sceptical but that is a bloody good deal, any one else think its too good to be true?

what safe guard would i have if i got some and put it through paypal onto my credit card? would i be double safe or would it all go tits up with the credit card?

 

I think they're actually more expensive than buying from jenvey themselves?

 

no they are not ive looked into it.

a single SF throttle boddy is £108 plus vat (there are 4!) then the manifold is £200 plus vat and then the linkage etc...

 

The worry I would have is, will there be an import tax on these? Secondly can you trust the seller?

 

greece is part of the EU isnt it so no import tax...

Yeah thats my main worry is the sellers trustability, otherwise i would of got it paid for already!

 

thats about right

lookin at my reciept from my emerald package

it says
Jenvy throttle bodys + linkages, manifold, fuel rail and air horns . . £677


the only thing is, that is + VAT.. however lookin at that advert, its from another country,, so you MIGHT get stung for it?? (dont know the ins and outs of that)

 

they the SF ones?

where you get them from?

 

PS: there is no real 'cheap' way to do TBs..as they are the same price as mine was.. it still cost £2k to do it properly when you include the ECU and all ..

came to £1564 with a £135 discount from emerald... so yeah, allow 2k i'd say to do it.
+ mapping. (although if you were to get emerald ECU it comes with a very good base map for zetecs)

EDIT: no, mine are the twin TBs.. in a very fetching shade of bright red lol.

 

i saw this yesterday and thought the same. checked his feedback and it doesnt reflect this item and all seem to be 'get rich quick' type purchases... i asked him for a price for a mf03 manifold, he replied,and price was cheaper than here too....even with a 10% discount at jenvey....i would investigate first.....maybe some of the greek guys on here know of em.

 

Look at his feedback, awful lot of Unregistered users in very recent?

 

I never told you but drive to Jenveys place with cash

 

the picture is of taper s/f throttle bodies £974 from jenvey,but in the discription they are listed as tb which the kit is the same sort of money from jenvey,from what i can make of it the picture is not what you will get.

 

totally agree with this £2000+. i tried to do mine cheaper but its loads messin about etc...if i did it again i would go with emerald full kit inc map then get it proper mapped later on after i had all the teething bits sorted.

 

they dont even look like jenveys!

 

go on this link,click standard kits,top pic rhs.....looks identical to me mate.

my bad!dont like the look of them anyway lol DTH ftw :P

 

ShawSpeed can do pretty good prices on Jenvey's I believe

 

from the ebay ad i think you won't get the inlet manifold.


i would not take the chance myself tbh

what about the mtech kit? http://www.mtechautomotive.co.uk/throttle-bodies/

 

got a reply today......its just a sample pic on ebay and they say item can be shipped from jenvey uk.....so easy to check if genuine

 

does it come with eveything?

you got to use exsisting injector holes on these bodies dont you?

 

everything listed in the ad....no injectors. what do you mean existing holes????
there are injector holes in the throttle body to line up with rail and associated mounts.....why would you want to use different ones??

 

sorry fella got mixed up with a different forum regarding itb's lol

 

Guys, we do Jenvies and our V4 ECU supplied, fitted and mapped for £1,880 INCLUDING VAT!

Thats a drive in/drive out service with before and after dyno plots. We supply all parts required in that install if the car is currently a runner (i.e it has the basics like a fuel pump lol!)

Have a look around PF for the quality of our work, it's all gravy :P

Matt

PS those are the TB type. He has the wrong picture. We can supply similar kit for £600+VAT which includes linkage.... or £1,100+VAt which includes our latest V4 ECU premapped for 170bhp on a blacktop, 190bhp if you have FOCUS3 KENT cams, or 155bhp if fitting to a 1.8 etc
