Well here you go...
Took about 45minutes because of those DAMN gm clamps! Ok to the good part, no leaks at all. I didnt drill into the chasis, I used "Lock Tight" velcro. I used it before very sturdy stuff. I let the car idle for a minute. I started seeing bubbles in the tank. Good news my pump is flowing. I took it for a spin light throttle and stopped a mile down the road and put some more coolant in the tank. I let idle for a minute. I went wide open throttle and man does it pull. Engine feel is much better. Thanks to STU!!! Now guys get off your butts and buy one!!!

 

Not the prettiest looking piece is it...but looks dont pass performance!

 

Damn you... I can't wait to get mine.

 

HaHa, hey I dont care how it looks, IT WORKS!!! If you care how it looks just get some hose covers for it.

Thanks,

thanks for the review! glad you are happy with it.

 

And thats why I said who care the way it looks as long as it performs.

 

BTW, i think you could get away with adding a little bit more water/coolant in there

 

Lol yeah I will. I also put water wetter in. Roughly 8 cap fulls.

 

how much hose did you end up cutting off the inlet line?

 

Hey hern... I wasnt being an ass, I was just inputting people could get those hose covers or whatever they are called.

I cut about 6" - 7" inches off

 

I'm sorry but you may be going nuts. All it's going to do is lower temps after runs and not get boggy so...engine "feel" would be consistent-er not better. Still want to know temps.

 

if his car would heat soak quickly, he would notice it.

 

Maybe if somewhere is saudi arabia.

 

mk hoss, do some data logging then come back

 

you know what would compliment this mod really well?

a higher gpm pump.....

 

or a midget that could just blow the liquid through hard.

 

It would be nice if we could figure out a way to fit in tanks like these.

Hey gang, well my car was a dog before I did this mod. I saw a thread about intercooler pump not working correctly or not at all. I thought my car could be the culprit because as soon as idrive for maybe 3 minutes it was a dog. Sure enough it was the damn pump. My car was acting the way it was new when pump running. Very little hesitation Now with this cooling mod (more fluid) it consistanly pulls hard. I dont know why the doubters, just be glad we have SOME people here who care!!! I stand behind this mod.

 

ok i am in NO way knocking this mod...........but..............

$8 generic coolant tank from autozone, plus $10 in heater hose, couple bucks here and there for fittings and clamps= $160 ??????

i guess i'm missing something here.......

 

Supporting a member. Yes sourcing parts might be cheaper but i chose to pay that.

 

Some people just arent capable of drilling a hole in plastic........

Hey I need support. Anybody need a radiator hose, I am selling it for $5 dollars a foot.....

Your right though, its your money, and if you are willing to pay it, he might as well bank it. More power to him....................

 

true. i give him credit for coming up with an awesome low buck idea that i am in the process of modifying/stealing and making my own today via the junkyard and some random parts.

one issue i see with this setup is the routing of the hoses. perhaps include some hose protecting wrap or teflon sheet to protect the hose as it crosses over the sharp edges of the h/e and a/c condenser, i can see that becoming a problem down the road.

 

^^ I agree with the hose wrap protecting the tops of the intercoller/rsdistor.

Good luck comp, lets see the pics when done.
