these mod's are the same as puting a performance chip in and on stock tune it will defently free up some hp because the timing is conservative and the piston reaches TDC quicker so why do all that work when you can get the same effect from a chip that takes 1min to install... Now combine these mods with any performance tune on the market and you will pop the motor if you dont have knock sensors... to make more power with these mods you will need a retune period !

I agree with the electric pump, but it's too pricey for me. I was thinking about doing one for a problematic motorcycle I have. The pump runs coolant all over...through the frame & around the engine.

What newer BMWs have electric coolant pumps? The only ones I've been able to find are the crap aux coolant pumps on Passats.

Esprit Aviation...you're forgetting alternator inefficiency, but your point is still valid.

Look. All I am doing is putting in an electric water pump with of course electric fan and thermatic switches. I have also added 272 deg cams and a light weight fly with an E-prom. This is my little racer. I particularly DONT CARE about your parasitic HP issue. I have already done SO MANY PERFORMANCE MODS it will make your head spin. I am just trying to find out who the member was that was selling the Delete Plate. Just looking for some help. Thank you. Tony.

272 deg cams I was thinking about these for my turbo...How do you like them?.. where do you redline?

With the E prom over 75. Don't really know I use the stock gauge set up thinking about it.
