I'd like to know more, maybe someone could invite him in here? Cosworth also has teams of people that went to school for this stuff and have been in F1 and WRC for ages off and on. I also 'went to school' for some of this stuff. Suggesting you can get the same level of expertise and production quality for $5000 less requires some form of proof beyond a general unproven claim. Regardless, I'll look into 3MI. Seems worth the inquiry. I'm all for spending less money to get the same quality product. Just prove that it is if you are going to say it. Otherwise we'd all be buying Visconti who definitely did NOT go to school for this stuff. Oops, did I say that out loud? |

Someone posted a thread on a FB25 hybrid engine a long time ago, before the car even came out but I can't seem to find it. I wish it was as simple as it is with all of the EJ engines. Bellhousing adapters can definitely be made especially if enough people are interested.
After seeing the kind of torque Crawford made with their twin-scroll turbo FA20, I'm not convinced building a FB25 hybrid is worth it unless you want to stay NA and then I'd worry about spinning the engine to higher RPMs, the FB25 has a 6400 RPM redline. I just don't think it's going to be worth it. |

Fb25 heads are the reason the red line is so much lower. Fa20 heads are just amazing.
