I love ideas like this. Haven't seen something like this before on a Miata. Thoughts on hanging a CPU cooler (just because its the smallest water rad I can think of) from a hood vent? I'd run the turbo water feed to it, then to the turbo, then return it as normal.

[@Bbeavis]

Thanks for watching paintman! :) I wouldn't do anything like that with my turbo, it's a good setup as it is with the lines running in the same system as the engine cooling, separating them would add too much complexity.

[@subgtay4193]

Awesome idea

[@Bbeavis]

Thanks for watching SG :)

BEAVIS Motorsport, I'm addict now

[@JackButlerVideos]

you should to an alternator delete while your at it! good gains to make there

[@Bbeavis]

Alternators have a good purpose that I don't want to lose.

[@manubinsia1101]

can i use any electric water pump???like bosch or omething??and can u tell the different about cooling between mech and electric water pump??

[@Bbeavis]

Hi Poloi, of course, you need to choose the pump that suits your application and engine - if you have a lot of power or added something like a turbo you may need a higher performance pump - but I opted for the davies craig units as they are popular, high quality, and work well. Check out my other videos on the electric water pump setup where I have detailed the benefits and reasons for changing from the oem mechanical pump.

[@manubinsia1101]

tq sir....im using honda vtec turbo...because at my country its almost hot everyday....will use this electric water pump too....tq sir for your respond...

[@mehdijdh2027]

Thanks for the video .... I want a site where I bought this pump and how much it costs???

[@Bbeavis]

Hi Mehdi, google "davies craig ewp115"

[@Triple88a]

With running the pump slower arent you increasing the risk of hotspots?

[@Bbeavis]

This pump flows and cools much more than the mechanical pump.

[@Triple88a]

@@Bbeavis Yes but even with the stock mechanical pump without thermostat it will overcool the engine.

[@garyfintelman3602]

What size belt did you end up with?

[@Bbeavis]

Just measure it with a length of wire wrapped around the two pulleys, gives you the perfect size. I did this 3 years ago now so I don't remember the specific length.

[@garyfintelman3602]

4pk0715 it turns out

[@luispedropcovo]

Dear Beavis...still runing? cheers

[@Bbeavis]

Hi Luis, yes the pump performed fantastic. Thanks for watching.

[@manubinsia1101]

is 400gph electric water pump is good for turbo vtec???

[@Bbeavis]

Hi poloi, my pump is 115 litres per minute.

[@DarkLinkAD]

Thats 1500gph..

[@smalls207]

Track tested yet?

[@Bbeavis]

Hopefully sometime late December or January next year.
