Hey, thanx, I found that too. I am actually looking at what parts are being used etc...

These people sure make it difficult to find exactly what the engine bay contains

They aren't going to give away too many components for competitive reasons. If you could ask for specific components I might be able to provide more details but most of the important parts are custom made to their specs anyway. The article linked below is a couple of years old but is still pretty relevant.

Yeah i dont think it would be in the teams best interest to give away the actual engine components. But from their page, you get the idea.

I'm interested in making a intercooler setup like the WRC cars. Do anyone know or where this can be done? What's the good and bad about it?
