shhhh its a secret.

 

So, when are you putting your woman's car on the rollers?

 

I had Steve do a quick tune on mine earlier this week with similar results. We'll be on a dyno tomorrow, and Steve may do some tweaking...not sure yet. That part is up to him. The initial plan is to flash it back to stock, get a baseline, and then reflash the tune and screw around. Only have a half hour and a few pulls to work with, though. I'm po'.

 

im curious to know as well. once i get a hold of an ss/t car for about 6 hours, i'll have a severely tweaked map

 

So it would seem. The ECU is much more advanced than the ss/sc, but this appears to work to the tuner's advantage. You tell it what to do, and it does it, no questions asked. It seems to base it's fuel off of the factory wideband readings, so if you tell it to run a 12.0:1 afr for instance, it simply adjusts fuel until it sees it. Cake!

For the option B I can see the coolant from the 1/4 inch line spitting the hot liquid into the tank while the cool goes back into the intercooler. As long as I can see this working I know the pump is working

 

119 for a new pump, brand new...fyi. that's where i got mine.

good find.... I'll need to check mine the next time I take her out

 

I have seen 4 more this past week out of 6 LSJs that I have attempted to tune that showed up with burned out pumps. Most had no coolant in the Intercooler either.

My guess is that a low level of coolant is burning these pumps up....shortly followed by the motor.

 

Nice to know. Just checked mine, '06, almost 43k on the odo, intake is the only mod. Working fine for now. Does help to keep an eye on coolant though.

 

A great test if you don't know if the water is flowing is to take a dropper of BLUE food coloring and drop it in the resivoir while the engine is running. If the food coloring doesn't immediately get sucked out of there than you are dead.

A few people who "checked their pump" before tuning opened the cap and thought the engine vibrations was coolant flow.

 

29k on my car ,checked it last night and the pump is working . I will keep checking it though periodically

Mine has gone out 3 times I just recently bought a new one off of ebay

 

Dam i am glad i caught this thread, I am going to check mine and make sure I am all good, just a question tho, what if it went out on you while you were driving or something, I have an aeroforce scan gauge, but I am wondering what would be bad iat2's that would tell you that your pump went out. Lets say it was 90 degrees outside, so if my iat's were 160 and above would be bad or would it be higher. Thanx steve and of course Hatrick.

P.S. Hatrickstu I will be recieving my res. mod today, yea! cant wait. You said I had to drill the holes right?

 

I can tell the difference between flow and engine vibration. I work in a garage

 

I've got a question that I didn't read in this thread.

What would the iat2's be around if the pump is not working while cruising and or at idle.

Generally with meth on a 2.8 and 60lbers my iat2s don't hit over 130-150ish depending on how hot the day is and depending on how many back to back pulls I do.

While cruising my iat2's are generally 25-30 degrees higher then my iat1. I am using a 3gph nozzle, and will be switching to a 5gph nozzle soon.

Does this sound like my ic pump is working, I also have option B.

I am going to go check, but it would be nice to know what iat2's means its not working. Thanks again.

 

I asked that question 2 post above you ^, but no answer yet.

 

very kool info, my brothers car wasnt working and i did the hatrickstu hammer mod and it worked again. lol thanks

 

lol, i think mine **** the bed. and i just posted in this thread.

 

9gpm

 

I read on silicon intakes that it was 317gph

 

can i get that link pls

 

www.zzperformance.com sells two styles. look under the grandprix section then select intercooler then scroll down till you see the pumps.
