New to this site.

I just got a '00 Zx2, Dark green, basically brandnew.
i plan on starting with cold air and exhaust system with headers maybe, any suggestions? i am quite new to this. :oops:

those are great starts, but also look toward under drive pulley, and sct tuning. the combination of all this is usually satisfying. If you have any questions I like most others are always available.

great, ill need alot of help on this, ill stay in touch :lol:

Welcome to the forum. I hope you enjoy your ZX2 as much as I enjoy mine. I think the Escorts are great cars. I have have six altogether, four at one time. But I’m down to only two ZX2’s now. The cars have great engines, but the transaxles are not the greatest in the world.

Yeah, mine’s still completely stock, but i’m in love with it. It seems unsually fast for a stock car. :]

Avoid bomz intakes, K&N intakes and hotshot intakes. The bombz will show losses over stock, and the K&N and hotshot both aren’t that great for a full bolt on car, they die off in the top end.

For an exhaust you should be looking into a 2.25 or a 2.5 inch mandrel bent. Majority prefer the borla with a resonator… Others like the magnaflow. Trubendz.com makes the best exhausts.

The kamikazee header is probably the best for the car, along with the zxtuner/hotshot. Both are long tube headers and probably aren’t legal in your state… but there are almost always ways around. Unless, you are in cali. The JBA is CARB legal, and is ok in cali but it is a shorty and keeps the cat. The pacesetter is another shorty but isn’t CARB legal. They have been said to be prone to cracking, but I have had no issues with mine. The OBX/knockoff ebay is a long tube header but isn’t really that bad. It’s main problem is a smaller collector then the kami, and that can be fixed at an exhaust shop if you really want it to be.
