Mondy MK3 2.5 V6 gurus needed!
Would a throttle body, upper inlet manifold and lower inlet manifold from a MK2 Mondy ST200 make a difference to performance on a MK3 2.5 V6? (same engine as the MK2 ST24)

Im the freind Glenn is referring to, Ive got the 200 UIM, throttle body and bellows fitted to my MK3 Zetec-S V6, they do make a very noticeable difference. You don’t need the LIM because all MK3 2.5’s had the 200 LIM standard, just with normal 2.5 beige injectors, the 200 has green injectors. You will also need an 200 throttle cable, because its completely different, and good like finding one, Ford dont stock them, and even second hand one’s are like hens teeth, I eventually after 3 months of looking, found a new old stock one, even had a brand new 200 throttle cable bracket, gasket, and bolts, all brand new in Ford bags.

Thanks mate
I can get the lot for Ł150 (LIM,UIM, all gaskets and HT leads) but it means driving a near on 6 hour round trip to collect it as the seller wont post it
So just the UIM and throttle body, with just these 2 fitted will I notice a difference?
Not so good about the throttle cable.......Wondering how I can source one if I buy the items?

If your Mondeo has cruise control you might not get it to work cause the the part the throttle cable,cruise control cable attach to are different as well.
But the Fiddys car feels well fit compared to mine. His seems to just rev and pull harder.
It's an easy job to do too.

Having a search on Google and it seems the MK3 ST220 TB is the same size as the MK2 ST200 yet needs no modifications, so the original throttle cable should fit straight on?

That's interesting matey. That would save a lot of fookin about.
I was thinking of getting a spare inlet manifold and seeing if where the throttle body goes,I was wondering if it could be bored out for a bigger throttle body.

I have a spare inlet manifold Glenn mate, more than happy to take some close up pictures of it as in where the throttle body goes so you can see if it would be possible.
If you want it, well it weighs a fair bit so postage would not be cheap but you can have it if you pay the postage. I also have a lower inlet manifold, fuel rail and injectors from a MK3 2.5 V6. I spent nearly 20 hours on the lower inlet manifold on my car with a dremmel, metal polish and heaps of rags! I got each port to a mirror finish and the same for the butterflies, mirror finish. It gave me something to do since I have been signed off work as I refuse to watch day time tv.....So bits of my car keep coming in my house and then I clean them

I've replied to your pm matey. I think the face of the inlet manifold where the throttle sits us different.
I will Defo have the bits matey and I don't mind paying the postage.
As I've said in my pm. Did you fit the st200 inlet mani. Did you notice a difference with it.
