As for intakes, the only one that I'm aware of was the FRPP intake which required machining to fit. Clean you current one and you will see some nice gains, especially if you have a Pre-98.

Im from Port chester ny i have a 98 contour gl ....... currently i got an intake with an electric "supercharger" ..... i have a rapid velocity performance module off the iat sensor i got a dynomax muffler but im changing it to a 3a racing one

Here is a post with some info about another header (cheaper) which worked pretty well (I have it on my contour):

Sure! Just so you know, you will need a MIL eliminator if you use that header. It is a small circuit that tricks your car's computer into thinking that it still has a catalytic converter. Zxtuner has them...

You will also see some nice gains from a UDP (underdrive pulley) and by using the SleeperZ cold air intake modification.
BTW, what year Contour/Mystique do you have and where are you located?

Why would you want a stock one? :shrug:http://focus.c-f-m.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWPROD&ProdID=1330
Does that look about right?
How bout the price .... anyone find it cheaper?

before you rip your hair out trying to find manifolds for the zetec, there are currently none produced for the zetec. your only option would be an SVT manifold but im not sure that would work because of the IMRC that it has. Ford Racing (FRPP) did make one for the focus but it is no longer made and, IIRC, it had fitment issues on anything but the focus.LMAO good point oem LoL
-does more research-
