He folks figured I'd ask this here as opposed to snooping around the Focus forums...
My brother has an '00 ZX3 and it's in need of some maintenance. I've convinced him it's time to upgrade some parts. The suspension is being replaced by the SVT Suspension Kit from Ford Motorsport (just easy to do and deal with as we need springs/struts etc anyhow).
The flex pipe extension is leaking pretty badly...the rest is solid. Should we just hit the local performance exhaust shop and have them do a system, including the flexpipe extension? Or is the Steeda part a decent addition?
Basically I'm curious as to where the best gains are made on the Zetec 16v. The intake looks ridiculous...is it a big restriction?
He will be learning to autocross in the car this season so basic mods that won't land him in a fierce class would be nice (Though not key as he's just looking for some seat time now).
Thanks,
RJ
