Do you need to tune the exhaust in a Ford Zetec?

Why is the Ford Zetec on the back of my car?
The unit evolved into the Black Top unit The name Zetec is pretty confusing because it’s now used by Ford as a badge on the back to describe a level of trim. On top of this, there’s a smaller capacity Zetec – described elsewhere – plus, late Zetecs were made to look like the latest Duratecs.
What should I tune my Ford Zetec E to?
Both the ST and RS engines were confusingly re-badged as a Duratec. As far as tuning goes, it’s simple to bring an 1800 up to RS1800 spec with Ford cams or Kent FZ1802 cams – you would need a 130bhp ECU though, or aftermarket re-mapping. A power boost valve will help eliminate the flat spot between 3,300-3,500rpm.
Can a factory ECU be flashed on a Zetec?
ECU flashing helps fully realize the full potential of all the upgrades you’ve fitted to your Zetec. (In some cases, as the factory ECU is locked flashing is not an option, so an aftermarket ECU is the route to take, and many of these will outperform factory ECU’s but make sure it has knock protection and that you get it setup properly.)
What kind of power boost do I need for Ford Zetec E?
