    Well the curve says it all. Great result. Sadly not really been able to fully appreciate the results as the drive back to Bristol was 170 odd miles of motorway.
    Initial impression is that the car is in one gear lower than it is, pick up is quite instant. 
    Looking forward to putting some A and B road miles on the car as soon as possible.
    i know I won’t be disappointed.
     
    Thanks to Mike and his unseen grafting brother for great service.

    That’s just the sort of report I wanted to hear. 
    Mines due to have exactly the same engine mods next Saturday. 
    Sounds like the long round trip from Bristol will be well worth the journey.
    Thanks😎

    Well I’m booked for the 10th February.  
    All the way from Bristol but reading the reviews and advice from forum members I pretty confident it will be worth the trip.

    Hi @Cerec1 - Yes I have a cosworth SC'd car. I'm over in Cambridgeshire though so a bit far perhaps but welcome to pop over for a test drive if you are passing through. 
    If you can get a ride in a harrop, Sprintex or Edlebrock (are there any in the UK?) supercharged car the power delivery is very similar to the Cosworth.  Sprintex loses a bit more at the top end but that is about it.

    The manifold is best at increasing the mid-range. Similar-ish the UEL manifold will give much the same gains. So changing the manifold reaps the most benefits for day to day driving rather than the track where there is a modest increase at the top end. It does widen the power band though which is very useful for those corners where you're struggling to take a higher gear. 
    If you ditch the primary cat and keep the second one, with a stock or resonated after market system it won't be too loud, but it'll sound a lot better than stock.

    Hello and welcome!
    I see, our 20% OFF deal is getting some attention, if you want it to go faster, go for it! Cosworth kit is the best one out there. 
    I think you would be happy with Fensport's exhaust and remap, or Tuning Development's even. It'll feel better, you'll get rid of the torque dip, but it won't necessarily go faster. As far as sound goes, there's a decent selection of exhaust you might like - HKS, Cobra, H&S, Greddy and more. Do some cat-back research on youTube so you get the idea of what it sounds like, and choose

    Welcome.
    Best thing you can do is try to get a test drive in a Cosworth car. If you go down the route of supercharging, you'll love it. Exhaust choices are very varied. The Cosworth SC will increase sound by itself, but maybe a resonated exhaust will be the way to go.
    I think your problem may be similar to that of many of us over the years. If you start with an exhaust and remap, you may be a little underwhelmed and think you want more. Then you start buying manifolds, intakes etc. chasing power, never to be fulfilled. If you go down the supercharging route straight away, your initial outlay may be higher (though the 20% off makes it a good prospect), but you'll save yourself money in the long run as you won't be paying for 3 or 4 remaps, different setups, multiple garage trips etc.
    I spent close to £10k on mine over 2 years. Never thought I'd buy a turbo or supercharger, but went about as far as I could go NA, then gave in and went turbo after being quite disappointed with the car fully tuned at NA (without going forged anyway). I wished I had done it from the start.
