meziere electric water pump question?
 
i was told by the owner of raceware that the meziere ele- water pump will add 25hp to a ls1,is this true? did you notice a performance gain from it? can i use this waterpump on a daily driver? THANKS, mike c.

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.

How hard are they to wire up?

Slowhawk 11-27-2003 02:16 PM

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.

how much do these things run? and is it a worth while mod ?

HOTROD98Z 11-27-2003 08:35 PM

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.

SOM WS6 11-27-2003 09:52 PM

You add between 8-10 rwhp from one on a M6

anyone ever try to make an electric power steering pump or is one out or is it not possible? lol

I have this in my daily driver and it works awesome. It was easy to wire up.

They use different thermostats that arent included right ?? Whats the price and part # of the thermostat ?? :judge:

HOTROD98Z 11-28-2003 03:10 PM

They use a SBC thermostat i have seen a few sponsors including them with the pump.

TR has the pump at 499.00 with a 160 t-stat for 40.00 off if ordered on line. :) :)

You can pick up SBC thermostats at most autoparts store for about $5 to $10

JoeDirt 11-28-2003 03:59 PM

I looked on there site , is only the black one 499 .00 ?? :( I think a pollished or crome one would look pimp . . . . I guess you dont see much of it anyways

WS6FirebirdTA00 11-28-2003 04:02 PM
