Todd,
This is really great information.  I'm glad that you
found this through your research into EWP.  I've been following this thread closely, but I haven'y
had anything to add, since I'm only using the stock
water pump.

The idea of a redundant pump, in case of failure,
and/or for use on the ground to suppliment cooling at
low RPMs is of great interest to me.

I guess I'll sit back and see where all of this goes.

    I did a little research today on the use of the
EWP in production cars.
I found that BMW has several available with a
mechanical pump sized for high
rpm, hiway loads, but a secondary EWP, that takes
care of the load at low
idle rpm. However new for this year is a model that
has a new 6 cyl engine
with only an EWP (see attached pic, nice looking
unit).
