Anonymous Unregistered A	Do the much-vaunted KKM Intakes add horsepower to the Zetec? I'm just a newbie w/ car tinkering. Any other suggestions, to increase acceleration for a Zetec? ------------------ 98 Dk Toreador Red Zetec ATX Power Moonroof Fogs w/ parking light mod

Is there any real risk of getting water into the engine from the regular KKM kit w/o the CAI mod? That's the only thing I'm scared of. I don't want to kill my car. ------------------ Nick Nick, Sprout2287@aol.com, '01 Focus ZX3, Red, MTX, Injen Cold Air Intake, Kicker Speakers, subs, and amps, Dei Viper Alarm.
