I put the Camcon in with the boomslang harness. It is not tuned yet. I used some number someone gave that has pretty much the same mods I have. I feels quite stronger throughout entire rpm range. I run 89 octane. I helps to keep MAF sensor cleaned to.

I had to replace my header gasket. The origina one was worn out. I just hopped in the engine bay, and took the exhuast manifold out to out header in. I disconnected the o2 sensor. But I also installed the JP high flo cat/ mid pipe combo. Now all that work was fun. Just the header was pretty easy

I seen this discussion before. About stuffing different drivetrian into the Matrix/vibe platform. With cash pretty much anything can be done. What about a Lexus SC430 v8/tranny? Cuase if a 302 will fit in a Focus. Something can be done with matrix/vibe.

Yeah a 2zz factory header is good, maybe just a little polishing. The Jp performance header is nice come with O2 bung. So actually 4 header are made for the 1-zz. getting a high flow cat will help on uppr RPM's
