Check very carefully.. because even the Focus ATX and MTX throttle bodies are different, which leads me to believe that there will be slight differences in the way that the trottle cable connects, or the cruise control mechanism, etc. I was toying around with buying one, but they're just too damn expensive to test out.

And do some research on the things. Because I remember seeing one dyno that showed a loss with just bolting on the TB. You'll have to do some port matching on the manifold for that TB to be worth a sh!t.

Good points! i'll definatly check it out b4 spending $300 I was seeing if anyone else had tried. I thought the focus intake manifold was different but he has the same plastic one even has the bolt holes for the intake plenum that he never had

The engine for the most part is exactly the same. Especially if you have a 99-00 model car..
