Hi guys.

Just wondered if anyone could enlighten me as to what the J Costa is and how it works? Is it really worth fitting? Does it improve things that much? What's the advantage & disadvantages? Does it improve vibration?

Thanks alot.

J. Costa is a brand of variator. It replaces the stock variator.
It significantly improves performance over stock.
I would do a search here and at silverwing.org.
There is much written about it in both places, and most, if
not all your questions will be answered.

Keep in mind that everyone has their own opinion, and there
is no one right opinion. So see what others have to say, and
then make your own decision as to if its right for you.

Here is a video of another variator in action

Scroll down near the bottom of the page.


Thanks, I will look in into it. My Swing is still new, an 2008, but the dealer still had it on the showroom floor. A new 2008. I have had it about 2 mos.
