I've got a 2000 Ford Focus ZX3 with the 2.0 DOHC engine. Then engine uses a MAF sensor and I was reading through people's results with WAIs and it seems like MAF sensor engines don't like WAIs as well as IAT systems. I was reading in the focusfanatics forums, and a lot of those guys swear that CAI's helped their MPG's.

Basically, does anybody have any idea what will work best? I'll probably end up testing WAI, CAI, and stock system because the intake system on the focus makes swapping out the systems very easy, but I'm just looking for insight from members of the forum.
