I have no idea what engine I have! I have a 1999 Ford Contour SE, and I know it's a 4-Cylinder. Other than that, I have no idea. Is it this Zetec, or is it something else?

What intake should I buy? I don't want a CAI where it's down there by the road and can suck up water. I'd like a short ram or just a new filter or something.

What other performance mods can I get, and what would you reccomend I buy first?

Hey, there's a piece of plastic stuck in your filter, you mite wanna remove that and put a real filter on there while you're in there.

there is also someone who is selling a cold air extension that you can add on to the short ram intake for $155...just need to cut a 3" whole...

but o wait u dont want one of those so nevermind...get the CTA.

then get a custom made exhaust, svt exhaust, or tru bendz exhaust

and a chip if u have auto (hopefully you weren't dumb enough to buy one of those)

It's actually gone now. But I'm still toying with the idea of a rm air setup. Just want to get it right the first time.
