Custom SVT Focus Intake setup
I bought a COSMO Racing SRI on ebay that is made for the regular Zetec. Originally I had hacked out 3" between the PCV nipple and the maf input and also an additional 1" after the maf in order to fit in the stock location.
Since then I was looking for a nice airflow. Since I had removed the stock airbox I did not see a need for the airbox brackets. This was easy to change since I had already removed my d/s motor mount in replacing with a VF Engineering one.
I took the old battery box and needed to remove some of the structural brace from the bottom it should look like an X and the end closest to the fuse box in this picture needed to be dremeled a bit.
I have bolted the battery box to a bracket near the fuse box that is available once you remove the stock airbox bracket.
I think that by turning the battery it makes the engine bay look more roomier and puts the weight closer to the axle for better traction perhaps.
I can post more info if anyone needs it.
