There seems to be a real challenge in getting a affordable ported intake manifold for the Focus.

I have a 2000 ZX3. I have read that some model years have different manifolds than others.

Is the manifold from the SVT a good upgrade for the standard ZX3? I have canned the idea of boosting my car as I don't have the $$$ and my mortage is up for renewal.

190,000 KM (120,000 Miles) and counting!

can't you use a dremel with a grinding tool to port a manifold? DIY ftw.
