Default *****Help Needed - Chargecooler Pumps******

Which is the best available and where from?

What size pipe works best?

What speed of flow works best?

What is the best housing, impeller material?

What L / Min and PSI?

Don't want to use a pace one as I have one already.

Any links would be great

I was lookng into this ages ago when I had a Escort chargecooler.

The pump I used was called a "Nile" pump, made by LVM, part number LVM107. Was cheap, only about £45. Looks like a caravan pump, with a plastic body, but slightly larger, and 12.7mm tails. It's a 12V pump, rated for continuous running, pumping either diesel or water, and flows 12 litres per minute (which is enough). Draws 2.5A max.Can be used either inline or submerged.

There are larger pumps in the range by the same manufacturer that flow up to 36 litres per minute - have a look on Google.

Been told that with the boost I'm running and the energy that is required to cool the air back down to circa 34 deg C, I need a pump that is more like 30 ltr / min
