Ford Focus AEM Cold Air Intake

The Ford Focus is a compact car sold in the North American market. It was introduced in 1999 as a 2000 model year as a replacement for the Ford Escort and the Mercury Tracer. It received a revamp for the 2005 model year, and the second generation was introduced for the 2008 model year. Sales in the United States for calendar-year 2007 comprised 173,213 units, making it the 3 best-selling domestic-nameplate cars (behind the Chevrolet Impala and Cobalt), 9 best-selling of all cars and 16 best-selling vehicles, according to Reuters Top-20 U.S. Vehicle Sales Scorecard.

The first generation Focus was sold in sedan, 3-door and 5-door hatchbacks, and wagon configurations. The second generation Focus was released in sedan and coupe versions, dropping the hatchback and station wagon versions.

The Ford Focus isn't a powerful car right off the dealer's showroom floor but many can be modified for more.  One of the easiest and relatively low cost upgrades for your Ford Focus is to install an aftermarket Cold Air Intake system.  A Cold Air Intake will give you more horsepower and torque.  One of the best cold air intake systems available today is the Cold Air Intake made by Advanced Engine Management.

Will an AEM cold air intake void my new car warranty.  NO. The only time this can happen is from improper installation that causes damage to a vehicle system. If a service technician denies your warranty claim ONLY because the car is modified with an AEM's cold air intake system and the vehicle system failure was not a direct result of the installation and use of an AEM's air intake, please refer him to the Magnusson Moss Warranty act. You can download the Magnusson Moss Warranty act from SEMA's website.

The majority of AEM's cold air intake system designs mount to a vehicle in two locations. One mounting location is to the engine at the throttle body and the "cold" or filter end of the inlet pipe mounts to the body of the car. The movement of the engine on the engine mounts allows it to rock inside the engine bay, so AEM compensates for engine motion by using a soft mount that provides a flexible link for the inlet pipe between the engine and the body of the car. If you do not install the soft mount properly the inlet tube may break at the bracket weld and void the warranty on the air intake system. The instructions that are provided include a detailed diagram of proper installation of the soft mount.
