This may very well be the N/A piece that we are looking for to surpass the 300whp mark with ease. If price is not too outrageous this will def be apart of my set-up. I cant wait. The only thing... is it really going to be worth the high dollar amount when you can already get solid gains from the 5/16th and mrev 2. This combo is prob half the frekin price of the cosworth. Numbers better really be worth my money lol.

Im so impatient

Theres a couple of numbers being thrown around, but its been said that this plenum has gains of 17hp with no loss in the lowend/mid and making power all the way to redline with the right cams anyway..

It's always been said that Cosworth is aiming for under $1000 mark, but with no real official announcement till mid March.

This is kinda funny....annyone whos been into the z scene since the beginning will probably agree w/me on this.

Every time a new n/a product is getting ready to come out every one gets all excited, then the "this could be what weve been waiting for" comments start.

Then once the product actually comes out, usually way later then stated, the numbers arent even close.

All im saying is dont get too excited.

Cosworth isn't your average tuning company, though...

Cosworth sucks.. They have told me they'd be soon releasing 350z camshafts more than a year ago.

I wouldn't hold my breath for them.

I'm not sure if Cosworth has the amount of commitment to continue developing an obsolete 350Z DE motor that was replaced by the much more effective (and maybe even more efficient) HR.

Usually, yes, Cosworth are miracle-makers. They build racing engines for top-notch teams, and they were the first engine builder to break 20,000rpm in F1.
