The gaskets just never lasted, so it was, as with a lot of other things, one of those "you get what you pay for" deals.

This. Stock headgasket is the way to go, and I plan to boost mine a decent amount.

speaking of head gaskets
looks like Cosworth is also doing one for the FA20 http://www.karperformance.com/Produc...jc=&ProId=NTQ1 the little cut outs are unusual? looks like the gasket must run right up to the edge of the bore? Last edited by 350matt; 11-21-2014 at 07:25 AM. |

Possibly cut out to clear the valves

I can't believe anyone would actually claim that! Sure, vented BOV's aren't an OEM piece, but almost all (if not all) factory turbo cars run diverter valves, which are just recirculated BOV's.
Race cars with no lift shifting are also a terrible example to use, since they aren't closing the throttle plate nearly as often.

A few more tidbits on the kit itself. The +80hp is based on an extremely conservative tune on 93 octane. +100 is possible, but for a pre-packaged tune, Cosworth prefers long term reliability over high output. The base kit pushes around 0.55-0.6 bar, approximately 7-9 psi boost. The supercharger itself is a TVS 900, and is capable of about 1.2 bar, or ~17.5 psi. However, to take advantage of the full capability of the supercharger, you'll need a built engine. A stage 3 package will be released later on in 2015, which will include internals for the engine to be used with the higher boost pressure. CARB certification is in the works, and *may* be finished by the time the kit is released next year. Power output will not be compromised on CA 91 octane. MSRP for the kit is $6,495 As expected, Cosworth has been very transparent with information on their kit, and CSG will be a premier dealer for the Cosworth packages. Please PM @CounterSpace Garage for pre-order pricing. |
