Heres the second in a series to help anyone considering the Zetec Upgrade, I have compiled these posts from mainly information off the forums, so a big thanks to everyone who has shared thier data with us.
I will be adding and updating these posts as we find out more so keep an eye on the edited date at the bottom of the post and reread it for the latest information.
Exhaust:
Manifold:
The Manifold is the main problem; here is a couple of options I looked into, I finaly went the Ashley route as I found a Manifold for £50 secondhand.
Option 1:
Modify the Late Tublar Focus item (May come on donor engine), this will need some reasonable DIY Skills, the ability to weld and some offcuts of stainless
tubing to mate it to the X-Flow 2¼" system.
LATE FOCUS MANIFOLD
Option 2:
Buy an Ashley 4-2-1 manifold (£140 approx) these are well constructed, primaries are not equal lengh but they are very unrestrictive.
ASHLEY MANIFOLD
System:
The Ashley Escort X-Flow 2¼" bore twin or single box system is the one to use (£110 Twin £92 Single)
