Welcome to the CEG! CTA Motorsports Here you will find a wonderful Zetec intake kit, along with several exhaust systems. Go to the main page here ( CEG Home ) and click on Mods. There is everything you ever wanted to know. BTW, Magnaflow seems to be pretty popular as far as mufflers go. I know I love mine! For future references, use the search feature in the upper right corner. Dollars to donuts you are not the first person to have a question about these cars. Once again, welcome to this fine community, and remember to treat everybody nice....except Jared...he's a

first goto local exaust shop get a performance 2.25" pipe without a res and a high flow muffler. then get an air intake system from either CTA, or wait for D Davis' kit to come out, if you are a ATX get a chip either a superchip or a Diablo chip..if you are a MTX still not a bad idea to get one just not as important.. then get underdrive pulleys, TB from brad noon, throw a turbo from terry or get some cams and cam gears and dyno tune them and maybe some head work
ooh if you are not sure where to get this stuff I have recomended use the search and look by names I have given...
ooh and look in my sig for pics of my mods...
and WELCOME to CEG!
