Spend the money on an explorer intake and heads. You can redo the top end for under 400 bucks if you look around. You won't see any gains by putting a bigger tb on stock parts.

and also i recently have my car torn apart my upper intake is off and getting cleaned at my local smith auto, my egr was bad and the ports were clogged i looked inside the intake and there was alot of carbon and oil build up about an inch thick. and my mass air flow sensor looked horrible.
so thats why i was wondering about the bbk throttle body and egr, and also if i had to put a new maf on if i change those. thanks

Buy an explorer intake setup for $75-100. Cheap and good bang for the buck.

Clean your maf with electronics spray, or track down a 1994-1995 70mm maf off a gt and use that with an adapter.

You can do a throttle body and egr spacer of you want. Pretty sure theynare direct bolt on
