C32 Intercooler Pump Issue
hi guys i am new here. just got my 02 C32 (RHD) and seems like the IC pump is failling coz it is lossing power at 150km/h. does anyone have the parts code of the OEM IC pump? and the relay? i am aslo interested in getting the Johnson CM30 pump but it is very hard for me to get it here in Hong Kong. i went checking (http://www.pumpagents.com/JohnsonPumps/10-24504-03.html )about the Johnson pump and found that there are 2 models, anyone has the the idea about which one is the correct one? and is there anywhere else i can get it? sorry about all these questions. thanks guys and wish you all have a nice weekend!

+1 for LET Johnson Pump, I am pretty sure they will ship to you. This pump flows much better than the stock pump, and should also last a lot longer than the stock one. Also, I dont know if you are into mods or are going be adding mods in the future, but while you are installing your new pump you should think about installing a larger Heat Exchanger(LET, Code3) since it will be right there in front of you anyway. Its fairly inexpensive IMHO, and will help your car a lot with heat soak issues and keep your car running cooler. The stock heat exchanger is a joke compared to LET's or Code3's as it is SO much bigger. I just had a johnson pump installed with LET's HE and I can feel the difference big time
, specially coming from a failing IC pump that would begin to stop pumping in third-gear at WOT.
So if I were you, I would for sure go with the Johnson pump and definitely think about a larger HE
Let us know if it was your pump, and how it drives after a fix.

I bought mine from HK as a replacement of the stock IC pump, if you want the contact of the dealer here, PM me.
Be expected that they need to order it as they don't keep stock as I know, mine took about 3 days to arrive. Installation is about an hour or two, minor fabrications needed.
Before that, pls also make sure that it is the problem of the IC pump.
