I saw like 5hp and 5tq with it.
Mine is on a weekend driver and I see no problems with it.My temp before was 180 cruising with 160 stat.Now with the EWP and 160 stat it is between 160/165degree's.
The pump really shines at the track.Between the pump and my SLP fan switch I can cool the car from 180 down to 120 in under 5 minutes.

Basic wiring is easy.I just used a relay cotrolled by the fuel pump.Also added another relay to manually control it when car is off.Have a little indicator light too.

If you are going for every bit of HP its definately worth it, plus it cools the car down much faster and keeps it cool. The cheapest place i have seen them is at Thunder they are 499 and till the end of the month they are have double online ordering discounts, i'm probably gonna pick one up from them.
