With so many aftermarket products existing now a video doesent say "we're" better even if it has dub step music to get you wiggling?

We know already what's out there what the gains are from what exists. So let's say like FBM that cosworth is building a manifold with longer runners etc aka: like Crawford blocks idea..ok... What else pistons, cams, rods etc... Point is now even if "we could see" say 230hp that cost including labor for most will far exceed that of FI so it becomes senseless IMO is all. And in regards to their SC well there's only so many ways to do it unless they've revolutionized something? I dunno not trying to be negative to be honest just seems too many peeps are wacking off to a music video, me I'd rather see parts, real parts in a video being tested with some results, hell I don't need music either.

Just a little um ya....

Looks like full exhaust with the current rev nameless long tube header and a FP/OP combo with a cat and a modified (from current nameless design) spherical resonator, a PD supercharger, flywheel, and sticker package.

They are actually called bold new graphics

I'd take a catback made by Cosworth.

Oh I agree completely, well almost complete. It wasn't the message but the delivery that I was thinking about when I posted the Snickers comment. You'll never hear me complaining about someone offering a fact based opinion. I just saw an opportunity for a joke and took it.

As for the supercharger, I have to disagree. The Sprintex compressor is a little small for this engine, and their next size up seems to be too big. Also there has been some question about the effectiveness of the intercooler though that seems to have died away now. It might be possible to have a compressor that slots in between the 210 and the 335 that would work well. Though I doubt I'd ever pay Cosworth prices for any of this stuff. I do have their air filter, though. It was on sale for ~$40.

Well I agree with this. But guaranteed price will trump Rotrex by 50%+ for it being Cosworth and for not likely a 50% gain in power or reliability. So it will be about the "name" more over anything else. Perhaps I'm speaking from my ass, I dunno but with limited info on a dub step video all I can do is guess nothing more.

Guarantee the Cosworth kit won't leak coolant or have other niggling issues.

I wonder if this thread will linger and meander like the Nameless Header thread did for months ... This thread needs 100 more pages of hyper-optimistic belief in mystical car parts and promises of release dates followed by soul-crushing wait times and broken dreams ...

well considering cosworth made parts for the ej motor I assume they will get into the fa motor since their similar in many ways just takes time and lots of R&D

[Readytoxplod]

I'm down to see what they come up with..

[Levi]

There parts better be 15K and something out of this world, than 5K and just rebranded parts.

[Crazy Drew]

Just speculation. I'm betting cams, pistons, rods, ported heads and hopefully a big PD blower. Whatever they come up with will be amazing. It won't be someone else's rebranded parts (obviously excluding the nameless exhaust).

It may be some time before we see anything however the wait will be worth it. Cosworth is a big company and often has a lot on their plate, but they make sure to cross their T's and dot their I's so that they can maintain the quality of being IMO the greatest true "aftermarket" engine parts/accessories company.

The parts probably will be expensive but you have to understand that if you can afford them, the quality of engineering and manufacturing makes it worth it. I challenge anyone to post a racing record like Cosworth that isn't owned by an auto manufacturer.
