Top Gear review with Cosworth input:

Cosworth’s cooling system is built to take 400bhp, and the company is yet to dabble in changing physical engine components. So we’d be surprised if something with 350bhp or more doesn’t appear in the coming year or two. With the better tyres and brakes sampled here, that doesn’t strike us as a silly idea at all. Bring it on."
I think Enigma just completed a track day as well recently. It may be good to see what he says.
All I am saying is that I just didn't think saying it was not suited for track usage when there was no basis to your claim just was not a good way to establish confirmed information on this message board.
Well it shows how efficient the cooler is over the rev range with the blower compressing the air at each RPM. I am sure each kit varies about how efficient it is on one pull. It would be good to get the other superchargers information on this to compare. Also, go check out a Cosworth Dyno video. They are held at each RPM. This may have not been, but that is how the dyno test all engines. The engine is loaded so much the headers are fully glowing.
**I am confused now is the glam person also the CSG Mike, because they are responding to the same information.

Where can I find said video?

Saying a cooling system is built to handle 400bhp is not confidence inspiring, considering the other existing supercharger kits ALL readily hit 400bhp with the addition of bolt-on breathing mods and E85. Quite frankly, I held Cosworth to a higher bar, and they fell short. Consider me a skeptic, but when what I was told in person by Cosworth reps is not followed through with the product release, I'm going to have doubts about any other claims made.
