Ive got a Meizuer (spelling?) on my car, its a daily, although I didnt drive it far during the heat, its done pretty well so far, and they can be rebuilt by the maker for about $50.00. Im going to put a stock one back on it though just because Im not taking the chance.

Verdad Gallardo When u notice ur temps go through the roof then ull know. Same thing as a stock pump... Unless it bursts open and coolant goes everywhere and u see white smoke coming from ur engine. I dont see how it would be different than knowing when ur stock pump goes out.

IMO you can get 5rwhp much easier with some other $500 mod
the only benifit of an electric water pump is that if you are at the track you can have your water pump and radiator fan on in the staging lanes and be cooling down. other than that the gains are very minimal for dollar spent

Mechanical pump is a lot less likely to break than a electric pump that has a certain life.

i think wiring a toggle switch to the pump and fans would do wonders at the track. my car is on a stock thermostat and the temps go all the way up when i reach the end of the track
