I don't think Cosworth has any worries about breaking into the 350z market.
I am anxious to jump on these manifolds as soon as they are ready because who knows how much more free time Cosworth will have once they start back up into racing again.

I've pretty much given up on this one. We haven't even seen a glimpse of a production model... Oh well, maybe by next Spring we'll actually be able to buy one.

I talked to Cosworth in person yesterday. They tell me July is the target time now with a retail cost of $1200-1500.

It's a very nice plenum, but damn, that's expensive. I think I'll be watching from the sidelines to see what results can be seen from this thing...

He told me gains would be 18hp in the upper revs only. There would be zero low and mid gains.

^pretty much. I could be wrong, but I doubt that F/I people have to worry about loosing anything though.
