I will have to mount an airpump and check its rotation, it might be as simple as just running a larger belt. This system can definitely be used on the stock ECU.

 

That is hard to say, as it does not look like their kit is finished.

The biggest thing I can see is we have a " race " version that replaces the OEM waterpump housing completely. This also requires the side mount alternator.

 

what is the dimension of the pump from front to back? correct me if i am wrong, but it has a 5" diameter and the outlet is 4" from the centerline. i think i may have to do some "massage-ing" to get it to fit.

 

Here you go.

 

thanks, looking forward to seeing the race setup

 

I would also like to add that TurboSmart has been running one of the smaller ( EWP115) pumps on their 500rwhp time attack FC for over 5 years. It also their test mule which undergoes a lot of stress testing for their wastegate products.

 

Interested in pics and pricing for race version.

 

will there be a kit in the future using the erp115?

 

just ordered! we are doing a complete cooling system overhaul and what better to relieve some stress on the motor than a EWP kit! Looking forward to installing a high quality part

 

If you mean the 115EWP from Davies Craig, we can do that.

 

Davies Craig EWP115( 30 gallon per hour) even smaller than the EWP150(40 gallon) that we use in our kits found on the Turbosmart Time Attack FC. This car has been running this pump for over 5 years at no less than 500rwhp. It is also TurboSmarts test vehicle. It goes through a lot of thermal stress testing for their WG products.

As you can see with the traditional configuration( pictured) you have to run a radiator usually in FMIC fashion with a fill neck.

Our race kit will have the fill neck, and pressure cap assembly built in. You can then use this kit with a stock placement or VMOUNT kits. The fill cap/pressure cap must be the highest location in the coolant system. Also it will act as a AST system too.

 

Thanks for the info, i really like this updrade. Very tired of worrying about my car cooling down properly

 

One of the points you make is "This does not require an alternator relocation bracket". However, the installed pic shows the alternator relocated. Did I miss something here?

Is the NOT the actual kit? Are we still waiting on pictures?

In the meantime, a few questions:

1) Will this fit with all other OEM components? Intercooler, airbox, A/C & P/S?
2) Can this be controlled by an aftermarket ECU, specifically the Adaptronic PnP? The controller is "cool" but I hate having excess gadgets if I don't have to.
3) Are warm up time effected by this kit?

 

Sorry a Moderator moved this thread to this section, as this was in the 3rd gen section( it was just showing off what was coming, not an actual for sale thread).

We have two versions. We do not have pictures of the street EWP kit yet. The street fits ALL oem parts. I am working on the control strategy for use with configurable standalones like the Adaptronic. Warm up time will be affected slightly as the thermostat is removed(keep in mind that the pump will NOT be pumping during this time). Are we talking enough time to be worried? I do not think so at all... One could just set the cold rev limiter in the ECU...

 

I placed my order on TurboSource on the 14th and I haven't gotten a shipping confirmation. Could you look into this? Name on order is Ryan Garcia.

 

Ryan,

Taken care of and thanks for your order!

Updated photo of the new LCD controller & pump combo.

 

with the race setup, (eliminating the a/c) would the alternator and ps pump run off of a single belt? interested in seeing the race setup and pricing before i pull the trigger and get the street setup

 

Yes 1 belt is the plan. First group of photos does show the race kit placement( prototype with no p/s provision).

We will have pricing in next 2 weeks. We are just slammed with turbo kits at the moment.

 

Any new news, info, pics, or pricing?

 

Same question I asked Sakebomb.

Would a standalone be able to control the EWP? Hint Hint Adaptronic?

 

I asked this question a while ago....

Basically yes...adaptronic will be able to.

 

We are working on more photos. FC3S stuff is in CAD, and the race kits are almost done in CAD too.

I will answer the rest of your questions in depth when I have a chance. We are so busy around here we can't see straight.

 

Yes the Adaptronic can control the pump.
The way I set it up, is you will have a dedicated relay for the pump with a ground trigger. The ECU has programable outputs that you have have triggered on temps, so once set up it will send a ground pulse to the relay and then the pump will start to flow.

I will put together a "how to" soon to demonstrate the set up.

 

Out of curiosity, other than to seal against the thermostat housing, why is a adjustable bypass required when removing the thermostat?

 

Great to hear the FC news! Let us know the pricing on both gens when you can. Need to calculate how many days I'm living off ramen to save up for this ASAP

Also, will the FC kit be packaged with the smaller pump that Turbosmart is running or the larger one in the FD kit?
