About nine years ago, I had a Ford Focus and bought a larger throttle body for it. I port matched the intake manifold, and it was made out of plastic. I just stuffed a rag down into the manifold and used a Dremel and a vacuum to suck out the bits. Worked very well. I'd try the 1ZZ-FE TB, but would make sure to bore out the manifold. Otherwise, it's just bottle necking the airflow.

Thirty-nine is correct. He is talking vacuum not pressure.
