This thread is to consolidate all intake options. Please keep this thread clean and discuss only fitment, price and other intake options as they come out. I will try to update this with as much info as I can find. They will be listed in alphabetical order and only complete systems will be listed. Some of these intake systems can be bought as partial systems.

I think I'm torn between the CP-E and the FSwerks cool-flo with the ITG filter. I like the idea of the ITG sponge filter cause my last K/N filter looked pretty rough after 45K miles. Supposedly the ITG just reassumes it's shape after being bumped, dropped, etc. But the CP-E just looks so flippin sweet...

I think the key point here should be save your money and get a tune first. Without the tune you will see no benefit as far as any performance gain. The ST's stock ecu will negate any benefit. Why not take the 220 to 350 dollars and apply that to your favorite flashing device or intercooler. Heck, spend 50 and buy yourself a pretty little AEM, K&N, blue, green or pink filter if that grabs your fancy. Pretty much throwing your money up in the air and letting the wind take it to hear the blow off sound. Stock airbox is more then sufficient to do the job and then you can pull the stock cover to accentuate the sound for free.

Ok. Now that we've covered this ^^ for the thousandth time, can we keep the comments on the justification for intakes at bay. There are plenty of other threads for that. This one is for options, fitment and pricing which is why I didn't include HP figures that can be very subjective.. Many of us spend money on something just for looks, like wheels and chin splitters for example. I've been to a lot of meets and it's no fun opening a hood to look at a bone stock engine compartment. Boring.. Justification enough for some people.

Here's another one for the list:
TR3 Focus ST Air Intake System

I've been running it since last December; it has near perfect fitment and a very reasonable price...

That's already on the list. Last (alphabetical order) but not least. :)

Take a look at the CP-E one! Aesthetic value for sure. There isn't much performance difference between the intakes besides how the filter is stored (IMO).

A few of the FSWerks kits are missing.

The Cool-Flo OEM kits, the standard Cool-Flo, the turbo inlet tube, and our ITG variants.

FSWERKS tube only at 159.95 with the Ford Racing cold air intake with a steeda tune. The perfect choice.

As stated, I only wanted to start with full kits because there are so many variants and it's a lot of work actually finding pics to download and getting all the info right and the range of prices. But you are right, without those options it really doesn't show the whole picture for people who are in the market for intakes. I will add all options out there and variants I can find ASAP.

I hear ya. :)

In the case of FSWerks, feel free to use our pics and info from the link I gave. That should make the job a lot easier. :cool:

I have the FSWerks green filter Cool-Flo Plus. It looks great in the engine bay, different than other options, and it sounds awesome IMO, for those who wanted some more sound without getting an aftermarket BOV. The tube touched the engine cover just barely in one corner, or was at least very close, closer than I was comfortable with. I don't run with the engine cover so no problem at all. Very satisfied.

Strange, I've installed this intake and don't remember it touching the engine cover anywhere but tolerances are kind of tight in the engine bay. Wouldn't say that everyone would have this issue though. You may also want to contact FSWerks if you ever try to put it back on.
