Higher flow intercooler pump?

Anyone with supercharger setup ever try a higher flow pump? If so which one and was there a performance gain?

07blackg5 ran two stock pumps before.

I know the ZL1/Z06 pumps are brushless and flow much more but also cost like $4-600.

ive been running a meziere 20 gpm pump for a lot of years now, i cant even remember when i put it on. i put it on when i did dual pass/opt b so its hard for me to say how much it does over a stock pump. its been reliable though, never given me an issue.

You have any idea what the flowrate of the stock pump is for comparison?

You should find this very compelling:

It looks like the OEM ZR1 intercooler pump may be a good option as I'm not sure what restriction my system yields. The OEM ZR1 pump seems robust against any anticipated restriction while still maintaining good flow.

Sure as heck looks like the LSJ pump on the outside and found this info:
Lingenfelter post says it's a: BOS0392-022-002
ZZP LSJ pump has part number: 0392022002

Is the ZZP pump not the factory replacement pump, or is it 'upgraded'? Opps I've always thought they were one and the same if I am wrong.

As far as I know they are the same pump. If it is the same pump they tested here it was the worst performing out of the whole bunch! Started looking at some of the other pumps in the experiment though and having a hard time finding any available for sale.
