Seen some catalogues and had a look on their website, but has actually never seen a car with parts from them, apart from one Escort in germany with a SUHE boost gauge...

when i bought my cossie in germany it had some parts from them.

it had a l8 ecu running a lambda sensor and closed loop on stage 1 conversion with twin sports cats in the downpipes to get cheaper road tax, and compression struts on the front.

as far as i can tell, they are very expensive for what they do compared to uk companies, but then there's very few specialists in germany that can do anything with cossies. i have a catalogue somewhere, although it's a few years old.

they have a website, http://www.suhe-motorsport.de/

anything you want to know in particular?

you could try aksing on the forum at http://www.cosworth.de/

The SUHE gauge must be a best seller.... But yes, they seem like a serious business, have been around for a few years.

When I bought my Escort it had a SUHE mod added.

It seems to go ok, although I only drove it approx 200 mles in the last two years, not a long term test. Having said that I have had not one single problem with the car.

The printout I have shows 290ps and 446Nm torque, to be realistic thats only a graph on a peice of paper and I have nothing to compare it to other than timed hillclimbs.
My times compare to,
GpA escort.
BMW M3.
Honda type R GpN. so they can't be far away, as for the cost, paid by the previous owner.

my escort cosworth has been to suhe,but can anyone tell me when wolf do a conversion is the engine left to suhe,or is wolf responsible,they obviously have outside suppliers(Wolf],,my escort cosworth does not have a gauge supplied by Suhe as it has the Wolf uprated ones in the standard position and is 2 bar and i think the oil temp and pressure is of a higher level too.

If you have the Wolf dials, then you indeed have oil temp, turbo boost upto 2bar and oil pressure.

Standard has voltage on the left.

I did have those Wolf ones but I sold them on for my Birba ones.

Where do you find those 2 conversions displayed(did I write that correct?)??

But just to be sure.. Mine is a T35.. but with suhe-meter in the center, oil-temp, turbo1,5bar and oil-press. hmm. do they realy make a 2 bar thingy...

Speedy quick get the Wolf ones back in the car,i never heard of this other speedos,from what people tell me the Wolf ones are like money in the bank,very rare i think!!!!!!!!!
does anybody know wether Suhe did the engine work for Wolf,as part of the conversion?
JanDK,when i went on the Suhe website and looked about i got to the ford chips i think and there were 2 available, that is why i think maybe for small turbo and big, if i spoke German i would contact them,and Wolf for that matter no dammit and the Ford maindealer and ask themwhat happened,as my Cosworth was supplied by a Ford dealer and kept for a good number of years by them,the owner was into his Cosworths,i love cars like this and a 1992 homolagation one too was the icing on the strudel.
