Where can i get an exhaust and intake for a completely stock 1990 contour with a 2.0 liter DOHC zetec engine.Or what exhaust and intake would you reccomend? If I get the SVT exhaust could i get my local muffler shop to jerry rig it up?

First off, the Contour was made in 1995-2000, not in 1990. If you were told you were buying a 1990 Contour, you got suckered into a Tempo, Escort, or a Taurus with Contour badges.

Second, SVT exhaust does fit with slight mods and yes a muffler shop can install it (Take the end mufflers off though for better sound.) There is a stickie at the top of the Zetec Performance page that says exhaust compilation.

Third, the intake there is a CAI intake that is made from CTA, went out of production. I made the intake on mine like this Sleeper Z It's just like a CAI (er, at least the same principles)

Fourth... SEARCH if the first three choices don't help

I concur with Augi. If your a really good deal finder, you can get both the exhaust and intake done for less than $200.

You can also get a Ford Focus/ZX2 intake that may require minor mods.

Hey, no trouble at all, just had to give you a little crap for being noob on the forums.

yea seriously man no worries... they did it to me when i first started here...

speaking of exhaust... the flex tubing in my 1999 contour has rusted thru... i was told that its aluminim and the rest is SS, is this true? Idk i'm kind of toying with getting a whole new exhaust, my buddy who owns an exhaust shop says he will fix it for like $50, isnt bad at all. I'm still kinf of toying with the idea of getting a new exhaust for the thing. I already got performance headers which i installed last week. Any suggestions for a new exhaust? I don't want the sound of a rice burner, or a can of beans or anything. Just a nice low rumble or a low resenator. Someone help me please?


1999 Contour SE, Zetec 4cly. CAI with stock air box, velocity stacks on CAI, optimized HP exhaust headers. Goal: HP somewhere around 175-225. Stock look. Nice interior.
