Are they worth it?
Does the performance increase much?
Does the insurance increase by much,?

Dave at Puma racing has started making them, and only £440 all in! BARGAIN!

Of course you need injectors and management on top of that.

Maybe he does, but Jenvey have a proven product, as used by the BTCC, and their stock of parts and impartial tech support are 2nd to none.

Right im hoping to get an XR2i soon and want to change the throttle bodies after my induction kit and full sys.

What power increases can I expect after I have put the bodies on and what is needed to put them on both mechanical and financial?

Cheers
Tim
