sts-v intercooler pump replacement

[@anthonyredford7775]

I just replaced my XLR-V Bosch pump with the VariMax unit from the Lingenfelter kit. Half the size and 33% more flow! Now to figure out how to add a coolant tank.

How did you purge the air out of the system? Did you just add coolant to the reservoir and let the pump pump it through?

[@andredornier]

it took a couple weeks to adding coolant after every time i ran it, jumping the pump relay helps. my new tc fab intercooler is still drinking coolant after a month now

So the water pump is located under the car

Sorta under the belts

@@andredornier so can you put the pump back on from under the car as well

@@phat-b6771 thats how i got it back in, but i impacted the nuts back on from the top

@@andredornier I just have one question, this may sound stupid but is the inter cooler pump the same as the water pump or does this car have both an inter cooler and water pump
