Anyways if he is, the CD4E basically just breaks itself. Its already runs extremely hot due to a poor tranny cooler. However, if it is upgraded to an external tranny cooler, it can be made more reliable. I know a guy on contour.org had a supercharged automatic making about 180 hp and it held up fine. If its the MTX-75, then id say its pretty much bullet proof to a stock zetec. It doesnt make enough torque to really due any damage. Only thing that really needs to be upgraded for high horsepower applications is the differential with a quaife or torsen. After that, its been shown to handle up about 500 hp.

[quote=beyondloadedSE]who said he was running the CD4E?
"IF" is a big word here. I installed an aux cooler on my CD4E and it made a big difference. If he has an MTX I agree with you, it can handle it. He is somewhat vauge on the discription.

Re: Turbo for a Contour?
if you have an auto i wouldnt even take the money to modify it. unless you swap a 5 speed.
hectors car put down 166fwhp and 140+wtq and barely broke mid 16s. the car had TONs of potential but the tranny was holding him back more than you could imagine. You can run a turbo kit on a mtx75 and have no worrys, just dont go too wild.. AFAIK, people make turbo kits for the zetec but they are not 100% bolt on, i know you have to make a new d/p among other things. id also shy away from a FMIC due to there isnt very much air that goes into the radiator as it is.
