Electric water pump, worth the money?

Is the electric water pump worth the money for the little amount of HP it makes? Any other benefits or disadvantages?

Well it is more possible to overheat I guess with a lot of bumber to bumper traffic. I would get other mods before getting that one. You probably will not see a lot of peak power gain but you will see a good gain (5-15) in the mid-range and low end power gain.

Do a search. Minimal gains, low reliability for vehicles that see regular street duty.
