No because I don't hve that setup. The most important thing (after verifying your pump works) is making sure that coolant flows by gravity to the pump inlet (side/center) from your fill point.

But I did jump the starter out from post to post...and the starter turned but wasn't engaged if you know what I mean
And to add to that I switch the crank fuse with the ac fan fuse and still nothing...

all you really need to do to check if ur PUmp is working is turn the key two clicks foward and look to see if fluid is moving..or you hear a pump noise..if you dont..its dead..Its a common issue on our cars. I just replaced mine...and when you fill it..the HE will take about half a gallon of coolent..if its bone dry.

The second coolant condenser...aftermarket zzp one...I filled it up with coolant through the radiator hose I unhooked it from the top of the motor and poured coolant in their...it didn't take half of a jug and the overflow tank is full.. I feel like it should take more than that

I believe you filled up the wrong coolant resovoir. You see the little fill cap in front of the supercharger? Fill that with distilled water and repeat as necessary until the system is bled completely. It may take a couple days to work all the bubbles out. Make sure your IC pump is functional, in my experience they tend to go bad every 30-40K miles.
On the stock tune, the IC pump does not turn on with 2 key clicks IIRC.

You used the correct mix for the engine coolant system, however it is acceptable and better to run straight distilled water in the intercooler system granted you're not driving in freezing temperatures. I run distilled water 100% of the time since I'm in Texas and garage the car.

Can someone please explain the two cooling systems??? I did not put any water in my car and the only place I added the 50 50 mix was the big hose on the top of the motor?? What am I doing wrong??

You have the Heat Exchange System and the Normally coolant system...the big pipe you prob took off is the normal one..
Now you said you have Option B?
Fill the second coolant bottle on the pass side till its Full...then drive around town letting the coolant get sucked into the Rads and refill as the coolant fills the space..it doesnt do no good if you cant drive the car to get the coolant moveing.
