upgraded ic pump
Can any one with a 600 or 65 tell me what pump you used and why? Does any one that has done this have any data to show the before and after iats. I know the 55 cars use the big cm90 but I want to know what the v12tt guys are running. Also has any done the therma stat upgrade or know if it can be done on the v12tt's?

Not that many people datalog, and even fewer biturbo owners go that far, I have shared my data with you which was compared to the data that I was told was from NSM's car after the "intercooler" upgrade and they were identical, my figures also seem to be inline with what you datalogged recently, correct me if im wrong. Its a killer 94 degrees Fahrenheit right now, ill go make repeated runs and tell u the outcome.

I took the consequence and installed a bigger cooler and a bigger IC pump. Since then i have had no problems with IAT what so ever.
I dont know enough about the 600 to advise you, but a bigger IC pump would proberbly help keep the IAT down.

[quote=theboogers;2367284]slcharger- which pump and ic upgrade did you use? and pictures? thanks[/quote]
Kleemann did it together with the tuning, and the I/C is their own product, but i am pretty shure that the pump is an electric one from Johnson Industries. Photoes wont show anything, everything is covered. Sorry.

[quote=Chris-W;2591955]can I just swap out my stock sl 55 AMG intercooler pump for a Johnson CM90 pump ?
Yes you can.
If so can I get direct from Johnso and what flow rate increase can i expect?

I have no numbers, but it will help. The best thing to do would be to replace the coller as well.

So I'm stuck with the CM30 unless I want to start upgrading pipes as well but the CM30 is much better than the stock unit?

NEED HeLP!!!, I will install tomorrow the Johnson pump-Intercooler pump on my 2005 SL55 AMG.
Went to epc and is freezing on my computer and unable to get the info.
There's 2 electric pumps in the right side(passenger) of the radiator, one is smaller(lower pump) and the other on top is bigger.
Which one of the pumps will be replaced by the Jonhson pump, the bigger (top) or the smaller(bottom).
Also the stock pump has 3 hoses and the Jonhson pump has 2 conector for 2 hoses, the remaing hose should be clamped or what?
Big pump on the left and smaller pump on the right.
Jonhson Pump
thanks,
Ricardo
