I suspect the rallysport car on the cosworth stand is a show car with lots of nice bits on it, after all its not cosworth's car , it just has the cosworth kit on it as they are a cosworth vendor

and yes you make an interesting point about long term longevity, I suspect most folks whack on a FI kit and go for broke without thinking just how long the stock bottom end will last

I'd hope that Cosworth have considered this with this kit, hence why the boost is pegged much lower than what the charger is capable of to help keep the stock bottom end alive
