there are a few differences....the actual "filter" is the same....it's the way it connects that differs.
email chris and find out for sure....
later. Whereas there are more differences than I realized, is that intake cool to run on a CSVT? 'Caus if I'm not mistaken, the KKM site has it listed for 2.5L Duratecs and the Tru-Rev intake listed as the intake for CSVTs. Please correct me if I'm wrong...again.

I'd be interested in the answer too. There really isn't much difference in the SVT / Duratec Non-SVT stock air intakes is there?

I honestly don't know anything about the CTA Intake, but I know that the IAC is in a different location on the SVT engines, and non-SVT 2.5L Duratechs. The IAC is in the stock air box on the non-SVT engines, while the IAC in the SVT engines is in the flexable air pipe, down stream of the MAF. Therefore the IAC only needs to be relocated in non-SVT cars. At least this was exactly the case between my car and Kim's. (We both have the KKM) Doug, I'll take some pics of the differrences today.

Doug, I'll take some pics of the differrences today.[/b]The IAT sensor and IAC Valve are in the SAME locations for SVT and Non-SVT Duratechs. IAT is in the Air Filter box, and the IAC is on the UIM next to the firewall and EGR Valve. The IAT "HAS TO BE" in the Air Filter Box because it reads Incoming Ambient Air Temperature PRIOR to the MAF. If it doesn't, then the MAF readings are inaccurate.

Because the SVT engine has a higher air flow rate than the NON-SVT engine.
That is why a conical style filter is used in the SVT.
The Non-SVT uses a square filter in a square box,
that has a baffle inside to eliminate intake noise.
I know it's stupid, but we didn't design the cars,
FORD did.
If it was left up to us, all Tours would have the same filter,
whether it was a Zetec, Duratec, or SVT.

Thanks for the help guys. CTA tells me I can use any 3" pipe to connect the end of the filter to the intake from the fender. I might as well spend the extra $ and get the kkm which comes with it. After all, we have determined it is basically the same setup.
