Look at the flow chart posted. Go to 12psi pressure head. Go to the pump intersect line. Go to the GPM rating. Then compare the OEM pumps. Stewart EMP is an OEM for the Ford GT Supercar. Nothing close to its performance at 12psi. Plus OEM quality.

Obviously your car works amazingly well, but I can't help but think you would benefit from bigger water lines! Are they pretty short now? What kind of IAT rise do you see on full tilt pass?

Basically after many hours of reading different forums and articles , 90 % of the pumps are very similar when pressure is added to the mix even if they are rated for more gpm.. read lots of complaints about Meziere pump that a lot of the Saleen guys upgraded to to find out it flows the same as there oem pump when pressure is added to the mix .. they called the company and they stated that their re flows are base on open flows with no pressure ... one thing that everyone agrees is that the Stewart EMP (reprogram) out flows everyone out there and no one had a complaint .. one guy did have a non reprogram one and only notice a minor increase Compare to the varimax i believe .. so if you have lots of restrictions small lines then I guess Stewart EMP would kinda compensate for that .. but if you can run the biggest lines you can the cheaper pumps would be just as good .. maybe I'm wrong.. but that chart posted earlier is spot on in I guess picking a pump or rating a pump from 1 to worst .

Yes that one will work fine. If you go on speedway.com in the garage sale sec, there is a bunch of Afco heat exchangers w/ fans. I payed $500 for a $800 unit . ( gt500 upgrade)

The 2013 GT500 pump is a good amount better than the 03 cobra and pre '13 GT500 pumps. I've tested many pumps and the '13+ GT500 has been better than almost everything besides the Stewart. However, the Stewart pump draws a ton of amps while the GT500 draws very little.
