Default after peoples opinons on these....

Hey all,
just got my EF and while it doesnt have any problems and drives like new, I'd like it to stay that way. So, I thought about fitting a Davies Craig elec water pump. any one used these before? Found it for $197. HERE

How much am I looking at for a new standard water pump anyways? Is it worth going this? They claim "upto" a 15kw increase in power.

I'm also going to be fitting a Tranny cooler made by them which I can get for $108.


Luke

Luke I wouldn't bother, the power you gain is the same the current water uses, which isn't alot. An electric pump isn't needed on a street vehicle.

Leave it as it is.

Nice lookin ride Dunky13.....

Was more for the cooling effect/reliability than the power increase.
Heard a lot of horrible stories bout falcons cooking heads etc. Dunno how true, I'm quite new to owning a Ford(but not liking them).

Cheers
Guys

She has only done 130,000 and the car is running cool now, sits about 5mm above the bottom line saying normal, with A/C on flatout, idleing in park. But it gets to 44degrees here, I guess its more preventitive than anything else.
