Is the pump serviceable thru the lid on the tank? I am interested to see your cooling results with this setup. The Rule2000 has huge flow at low pressure but falls off quick with any resistance. I am guessing it will flow close to what your current Bosch pump flows in the circuit but with the benefit of being submerged to keep it cool.

It should really help, since I added my second HX mines been good. Did a WO pull the other day and OAT was around 90 and my iats started at 106 and only climbed to like 127 on a 0-110 pull. Once I hit 90-100mph they stop climbing and just level off.

Yes you can remove the pump through the lid. That is why that lid is so big so the pump can come out. My buddy who built the tank uses the same pump on his ctsv. His tank is located in his trunk. He pushes fluid from the tank all the way up to the front of the car and back. If you look in the tank at the return on his setup the fluid moves a ton.

Yeah i am interested in seeing the results.

Yours leveling off still baffles me.

I just figure at that point the airflow over the HX and the meth are leveling it off. If I were on a 'Track' and was cruising at 90ish and went wide open they barely move. I would really like to have an engine dyno to play with and measure temps at various places in the system. I am not installing a half dozen gauges in my system when its working good.

So interesting info. Driving to get my truck aligned. I have the HX pump turned off because the HX is not in the truck. IATs were 55* above ambient just cruising at 65mph. So the HX does help in just cruising.

It certainly helps cruising, but its just hot in general.
