TDI Posted January 22, 2008 Author Share Posted January 22, 2008 I can't understand anyone buying anything this expensive without proof of the gains Looks lovely but i don't drive around with my bonnet off Not to be too critical would it not benefit you if you had the proof of results from this product if the gains were true? There is quite a back log of people waiting to buy them. I guess they either like the look of them or trust that Cosworth know what they are doing. We have the official Cosworth internal evaluation data which shows the improvement over standard and over a spacer kit, but we will conduct our own testing too. Hope this helps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H5 Posted January 22, 2008 Share Posted January 22, 2008 Isnt it the case that there will be no gains anyway as the ecu will rectify any gains back to normal anyway, and then even if you do flash the ecu, its self learning anyway, so there wont be any gains unless the ecu is managaed by a ecu upgrade or retuned by the likes of an fcon IS? So the space wont create any gains nor would a cosworth plenum? To a point. If there is more air coming in, to keep the fuel:air ratio the same, more fuel should go in, result being bigger bang........ Which is why a plenum spacer / larger plenum should theoretically give a bit more oomph. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So the space wont create any gains nor would a cosworth plenum? The increase is a result of reducing the intake restrictions, changing the intake runner lenghths and increasing the volume of the plenum - not by changing the a/f ratio or spak advance, although fine tuning of these will be beneficial Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cosworth did tell me that they were preparing a version for public consumption although we don't have it yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
