Ex-Finesse Posted May 9, 2005 Share Posted May 9, 2005 No point in tuning a zetec unless you're happy to throw £3k+ around imo! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Graeme Posted May 9, 2005 Author Share Posted May 9, 2005 and what would that 3k be spent on? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ex-Finesse Posted May 9, 2005 Share Posted May 9, 2005 Either TB's with little headwork, or Trust Electrical manifoldS and more headwork The only way to get decent power out of the zetec is to replace the standard inlet. Or, 3k could buy you a cheaper, 200bhp turbo conversion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Graeme Posted May 9, 2005 Author Share Posted May 9, 2005 so what sort of increase would i be looking at for throttle bodies and what work to the head would have to be done to capicitate for that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
