It's probably for the 2010 Auto Expo in New Delhi! That's great news!

Thanks for keeping us updated!

Engines will be imported from the UK and landed cost for a 200 bhp engine will be approximately 6.5 lakhs. 2 years from now Cosworth will be looking to manufacture basic engines and offer them at a price of 50,000/- One can then go on to upgrade that engine for performance.

Actually Cosworth is selling some parts for Suzukis also. They are starting with an adjustable cam gear, lightened flywheel and underdrive pulleys.

This is quite unbelievable! Brilliant!

Looks like Pete's has competition now!

Guys,

Just received a brochure in today's newspapers with info on Cosworth aftermarket performance parts. It came with a 10% off coupon valid till 31/3. Products on offer are carbon fibre mufflers, CAI systems, flywheels, crank pulleys and cam gear, air filters and exhaust tips

Has anybody on TBHP used Cosworth aftermarket parts?

Cheers!

R2D2, what cars are they offering performance parts for? Request a scan of the ad. Thanks

Hi Guys,

Just spoke to the Cosworth representative - a Mr. Dhananjay.
He says that the parts advertised in the flyer are mainly for the Swift and are available off the shelf.
I'm on my way to Pune!!!

Regards,
