Any incon users have an electric water pump. It LOOKS like I am going to have some serious clearance issues. I can't tell how much until I get the butt pipe back from the polisher. It looks like the radiator hose is wrong too...I have the p/s cooler but don't NEED it...any ideas? I WISH I woulda had my BMR k-member whacked and rewelded on the passenger side....the RS intake hose is crimped pretty good. I can still feel it sucking a lot of air at idle though so maybe it's "ok"

Well got my buttpipe today. No go on the electric water pump. had to put stock one on. Sux as the Meziere only has 5 hours of idle time on it. I think it pumps more......it would splash water out of the radiator without the cap.....stocker doesnt

I've never heard an application that would challenge the stock water pump.

I'd rather have an Incon than have an N/A car with an electric pump. Not even close. Never. Don't worry.

That sucks, sorry to hear that you couldn't use it. I just bought LGs new radiator to use with the iron block setup and I am a little worried about fitment.

I'll let you know how it goes. You could always try the new pump that Evan's cooling makes if you are looking for more flow.

Nah. I got it so I could cool the car off quicker after a run. Maybe I can trade it for some stereo stuff!!!
