2.3l, 20,000 RPM, 600HP in my Ranger
 

OMG, I want this in my Ranger. :-D


A 2.3l 4 Cly engine that can do 20,000 RPM, and will produce 600 HP. Talk about a Sleeper, imagine the look on peoples faces when your Ranger blows away their rice burner Street Tuner.

And the best part, it is made by Ford.

About this Engine.
http://www.wrc-cosworth.org/tech/tuning/tuning.html

The engine in the video is totally different from the engine they are talking about in the link. The engine in the video is from a Formula 1 racing car, most likely is a V10 (or maybe V8), and so has no real problem revving to 20,000RPM.

The engine in the link is the 2.3L 4 cylinder and probably only rev's up to around 7,000RPM. There are quite a few Sierra Cosworths in the UK (where I used to live) but the RS500 is a pretty rare and hard to find vehicle, especially in good condition.

Owwwwwwwwwwwww Me Bad. (digs toe in dirt looking for rock to hide under)


I should have know it was to good to be true. Rats! and I had my Ranger all planned out. Still, the one in the article would be nice. 600HP in a Ranger would scream.

:lol: Let me know when you rev your 2.3 to 20K RPM's I'll make sure I am at least a 1000mi away. Just for safty reasons.

jk.

Lmao at PowerDog.

Now, I must say, when I saw this thread, I was extrememly intrigued, but after reading ab the Cosworth modifications, I'm even more interested. I would love to put just a turbocharged Cosworth motor into my truck. But, I am an 18 year old college student armed with only my dreams, my trusty 2.5L/5spd Ranger, and my scholarship, haha.
