jenvey throtle bodies - sounds too good to be true!
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?

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)

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.

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.

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
