Attached to the response was also an image of a prototype in a rev up motor:

The end caps are carbon kevlar, but will be CF in the production model. The front cover will come later on.

Looks like a winner for NA and FI motors alike!


Thanks Cosworth!

THANKS FOR TAKING IT UP ON YOURSELF TO INQUIRE AND TO PROVIDE AN UPDATE!!!!

Of course, just cause they say Nov. doesn't really mean Nov. So not sure the update isn't just stringing people along even more...

It looks so good.... I'm thinking if it gives me just one more horsepower I'll declare it as non-rice and get it anyway.

if they just wanted to sell a product and not car if it produced any gains or not, these would have been for sale ages ago. there is a reason some products take a while to release

i cant wait to see the results on the revup i really want to see how this performs when increasing the revup rev limiter to 7.5k HR status lmao. This might be the key to achieveing the 300rwhp especially with tuning this should as ali G says VERY NICE.

The Cosworth employee I spoke to mentioned it....."SIGNIFICANT" gains with increased redline and thanks to OSIRIS we dont need an FCON to see these significant gains

I am hoping for 20-25hp or more up top....I just hope the low end isnt sacrificed too much for the top end gains....I am sure they found a great compromise....Glad this is Cosworth cause I would have given up by now if it was some no namer
