i'm sure you guys are busy, but do you have any info on the following (i can't take the waiting anymore).

1.) results from testing cosworth head for evo VIII

2.) availability and cost of cosworth cams (lift,duration if you have) for the evo VIII

3.) availability and cost of cosworth forged crank for evo VIII

4.) availability and cost of cosworth crate engines

5.) availability and cost of Works MIVEC cam for evo IX (of course)


thanks for your time, and hope you have some good news for us.

cheers.

 

Also, any new info on the WWI?

 

/\+one hundred gazillion, billion, million, hundred thousand, ten thousand, thousand, hundred and one...

 

and update on the brake lines...is it available yet???

thanks

 

WOW..are these guys even checking their OWN forum... a little customer service here please

 

I can chime in .

As far as i know, only RRE has been testing the cosworth heads extensively on Ken Jordan's car, and it's awesome if you have the money from what i heard.
Cosworth cams are retailing for $599/ pair
Billlet Crank is not a sure thing yet with cosworth.
Crate engine is still not ready for shipping yet, pricing not avail.
mivec cams , i think works is still working on them.
Dont ask about the water inj, it's still being tested for over 16 months, so it will be ready for evo X.

 

It sure looks pretty, though. Now it just needs to work and to be in customers cars.

 

More like 3 years.lol

 

Wilson pretty much sums it up

We'll leave it to Cosworth to provide specs on their cams. We're getting closer with our own IX cams.

 

ok i spoke to cosworth usa today and got some damn updates myself. not sure why the vendors couldn't just do this since they are selling the products.

head as you know already out and can be ordered
cams 30 days 275in/278ex 10.5 lift (may do a couple of different grinds)
2.2L 94mm billet crank 10weeks *if they say yes in the next few days $3300
pistons 2 weeks


pistons, bearings & rods tested to 900hp, crank to 1000hp.

 

Thanks for the info!

 

What evo is cosworth testing on that is making 1000hp?

 

u know they aren't actually testing it in a 1000hp evo..so don't be silly. it's just what the individual part is rated to withstand due to materials and manufacturing process. whether you actually get there with the part in an evo is another story.

 

Does anyone have an idea whether or not cosworth plans to offer a MIVEC variant of their head, and/or a MIVEC crate engine in their arsenal?

Great details on the cams ... The more I think about it, the more interested I am in the Cosworth parts lineup over that of JUN.

 

Greetings All,

We have heard rumblings of Cosworth working on the EVO IX Head and Cams. We spent the weekend with Cosworth at the Rim of the World Rally, but really didn't get any definitive answers. Cosworth is fairly tight when it comes to discussing their testing or future plans.

As soon as some real information is presented, we will share it here and on our website.

Thanks,

Oliver Simons
