Zetec inlet manifold
Hi,
I have just aquired a 2.0l zetec focus. I have this manifold lying about and have never used it, so am unsure how good it is. Will my otherwise
standard focus benefit from this and a filter being fitted to it.
Any thoughts, as always are welcome
Cheers steve

the manifold has no provision for the ISCV, so you will have difficulty running the stock ECU on it.
I was going to go down that route with my kitcar, but, because of teh ISCV i woudl have to use a custom ECU, which put the expense up even more.

Where do the injectors go?

150/160bhp nice
No ISCV never thought of that, rubbish, may need to build another megasquirt
The injectors go just before the flange, the manifold is upside down.

Just thinking, I haven't even seen the zetec ISCV, but is it not possible to incorporate it with this manifold a wee bit plumbing and
fabrication??

Just found this. Not sure what role it plays although its to do with the manifold, is it for Idle speed control???

yea, that might be for the ISVC, although they are not normally 3 bolt holes though.... usually 2

A while back I bought a similar manifold that came from a Ginnetta and it had a separate mounting "ring" for the valve which mounted
between the manifold and the TB using the TB bolts.
It sits in my garage atm doing nothing.

Probably not. The very short runners on that manifold will undoubtedly hurt torque at low-mid RPM which is where you feel it the most on an everyday
type car.
