Most likely .. yes
We have a local guy that told me that he could get me a good deal on a Motec .. but I'm still looking around ... And Simon .. I guess is the best, hands down
Any thoughts?

sorry to hijack this a bit... but yes... I think Nizpro is the best with motec since they have pleny of experiences with motec computer and there is always a motec guy there at their workshop most of the time doing engine dynos/tunings/testings (yes, in nizpro's facility, they have an engine dyno room in there) and guess what?! MoTeC headquarter (also the development centre) is only 3-5 mins away from Nizpro too...
IIQuickSilverII:
ZU L8R is correct (Thanks)... yes... I have a fully built N/A VQ35 to go 8200rpm everyday and I think this mod will definitely help the engine even more. Currently I am using 05 lower plenum and the peak power of my engine is at around 7400rpm or so
Hopefully the Cosworth plenum does not alter the way it idles... else we are gonna have a hard time to tune the idle again since it is perfect with those wild cams that I am using now
cheers,
richie

We saw it at PRI and talked with the Cosworth guys at length on it. Word is that it's in its final form and will include the carbon fiber end caps on the production model which allow for the runners to be honed/modified to the tuner's liking. They played around with various volume manifolds and the current one seemed to provide the best universal gains. They also had a good amount of technical documentation on hand that looked FAIRLY complicated.
Chimmike was taking some pics for modified.com and got some nice photos of it. I'm not sure what happened with them...
We were told by the cosworth guys that it should be out late 1st quarter 2007.
That's it!
