Leon,

  Well in past discussions on the topic I have certainly expressed doubts 
but I dont think I ever said I KNOW it CANT work. And I probably did say 
that in my opinion it wont be definitively proven until one flies. I'll 
stick to that. But your dyno testing will certainly add another data point 
and short of an actual flight test I guess its the best that can be done. 
It's a shame none of the guys currently flying with known cooling system 
configurations can be talked into doing some comparison testing of an EWP.

  There was some testing done by someone (cant remember who) recently that 
proved the math of certain rocket scientists was out to lunch. Somebody did 
some bench testing and measured flow rates for an EWP and those rates were 
real close to published flow rates for the stock Mazda pump without the 
astronomical current draw that had been previously claimed by some.

  So I remain curious to see how this works out. I probably wouldnt swap my 
stock Mazda pump at this point in time because I know it will work. One 
less variable in the early testing phase. But an EWP may be  worth testing 
at some future point after my basic installation is flying and debugged if 
you and others are successful.
