Thread: electric water pump

personally on a daily i tihnk its a overkill.

I run it on my daily driven car and it works fine. My engine probably never gets up to full operating temperature. I think the highest temp ive seen even after several punches in a row was in the 170 range. But for the most part it stays alot cooler than that. haha. I like to keep the motor cool for one because the cooler you keep it the cooler the incoming air, the less chance of detonation and so on. Some people say that will cause premature wear on the engine but pffff its a fully built motor. Im not trying to make it last 10 years of hard abuse. although if it did last that long and however many miles i would be really impressed with myself. hahahaha

But soo far so good. almost 8k miles on it in 7 months and not a single problem from the engine. Only trans problems.

Same thing can be said with turbo or nitrous

It doesnt add power, but its more of a safety thing to me if you track the car (road course or autocross)

actually personally i think turbo engines are actually better for a daily, if you take into consideration fuel automization, haivng the ability to tune in air fuel ratios to maximum fuel econmy, you can actually make daily driving with a turbo engine more efficent. over the same motor without a turbo
