Long time lurker and not a Contour owner technically (I have the CSVT swapped Focus aka V6Mistake) but do have a question.
I am in the process of re-working my current intake setup and was looking at the MAF housing. I have read up on porting the housing by removing the entire metal obstruction in the center and just running the MAF unobstructed. Example...
Now I have a spare MAF housing from a ZX2 that appears to be identical to the Contour one except it`s plastic and does not have the obstruction so I think I can test the ZX2 unit without irreversibly altering the stock metal housing.
I searched in this forum but couldn't find any info pro or con to doing this.
