[ZEDMAN]

Hi,I am new to 260 ownership and have come across this item on eBay item number:321937167471 - its £23.23 and in the description its a direct bolt on. Anyonehave any views or info whether its worth a punt as a replacement / spare for the original part?
I have viewed varioustuning tips such as the Accufab75mm Throttle Body. Is thisdifferent to the eBay item? if so how as I am sure I am missing something or its U/S not worth considering?

Cheers Simon

You need to go green, there are many threads about TBs.

At £23 worth a punt but may not give you too much improvement.

You want an accufab, end of....

Not that it really makes a vast amount of difference tbh....but hey ho..

Doesn't do much if you just change the throttlebody to 75mm. You need to exchange the plenum too!

And the intake tube Needs to be at least the same diameter and smooth inside.

Has anybody measure the difference between a standard and modified throttle body? Ford must have fitted the size they did for a reason? You can put as big a throttle body on as you want but if the engine does not need it there is little or no reason to replace it.

Using this http://www.hipermath.com/math_center...g_calculations depending on when you want the power you need a 62 to 68mm throttle body

Its all to do with drivability.....go bigger and it tends to put the max power & torque figure further up the rev range due to slower gas speeds at lower rpm due to the bigger diameter of the TB....ideal for forced induction though i would think...i.e. supercharged cars.
