Wouldnt it be cool if we saw sub 30* tho...

Okay, I agree if the tanks only goal is to extend the amount of time before heat soak occurs with no other considerations, then it works.

But the simple fact is it weighs alot, it will probably fail a tech inspection(at least the pics of it I saw), its straining the pump, and 29* over ambient during cruising is nothing to be impressed about. I dont believe the benefits of this outweight the negatives, I think a lot of people are trying to say that but just havent.

And that's all it's meant to do. In addition to a aftermarket front mount, a dual pass, and/or meth, the system would perform even better.

Our cruising iat2 is the way it is because I'm on a stock H.E, and it's Socal. We just don't see the outside temperatures to allow 5+- ambient on a air/water setup.

Euthanasia and I will keep tabs on our pumps, and if it dies prematurely. First thing I'm gonna do is PM you and say Maven, teh pump failed

if that happens jegs and summit both have cheap high flow electirc pumps that can be run off 12volt source.

yeah that's probably over kill but it's definately not an issue then! it's funny how many cars use that bosch pump tho.. how long do I have till mine goes **** up? anyone have a clue on average life lasted? I have heard when they go out you can rebuild them for less than 10.00 and they work, ever heard about rebuilding them?

My cruising temps arent even close when I run the cobra as my only h/e, far away from the a/c condenser.

Must be the pixie dust

Sure your not running liquid n2o thru the lines lol
