That should give you enough flow to run safely to about 25-30 hp.

Let's see, I'm pulling 3.6 amps, and Todd is pulling 4.3 amps.  What does your calculator say he can safely cool?  Maybe 35 hp ???   Hmmm, I sure thought his turbo engine would be putting out more power than that :-)

 

I'll run a ground test next weekend, and will have a pretty good idea of how it compares to the mechanical pump.  I'm absolutely confident that I can cool far more than 30 hp, and if you could hear the flow of water through the engine when the EWP is on, you'd throw that calculator in the trash :-)    

 

Cheers,

Rusty (undaunted by disbelievers)
