New Racing and Performance Products
The Latest Product Offerings From the 2019 SEMA Show
The performance products market—comprised of engine and drivetrain, electrical and ignition, intake and exhaust, cooling, safety and race gear—is one of the largest in the automotive aftermarket, with an estimated $10.63 billion in sales last year, according to the “2019 SEMA Market Report.” That reality was reflected last November at the 2019 SEMA Show’s New Products Showcase, where hundreds of new racing and performance-related products were on display.
Noteworthy among those offerings were the 2019 New Product Award winners: the Turbosmart Gen-V eWG60 Power-Gate 60 Electronic Wastegate (Performance-Racing) and Aeromotive’s Variable-Speed 5.0-GPM Brushless Fuel Pump (Performance-Street). Also garnering notice were the New Product Award runners-up: Lingenfelter’s Performance Engineering DI High-Flow Check Valve, and Nitrous Express’s Boost Cooler Ring (Performance-Racing) as well as Tire Stickers’ Cerebrum Smart Tire Sensor and U.S. Gear’s Ford 9-in. Stealth Series Ring & Pinion (Performance-Street.)
What follows is a listing of racing and performance parts that were on display at the 2019 New Products Showcase, along with insights and observations from a number of industry leaders.
