I'm noticing a decided slant to this poll. I think the OP may be biased.

Cosworth is not about value, its about exclusivity. Anyone that doesn't mind forking over the cash is not too worried about the price.

Fortunately, they don't posess any exclusive technology in their package, and there are other options that will yield desirable results at a more easily attainable price.

I think I might sell Cosworth badges on EBay LOL
