Nice, not to be rude, but dont the 408 make 500HP by itself?


Adding two turbo's will bring you up to 600+ even on low boost.

What's the benefit of running an electric water pump? Is there that much drag loss?

there is alittle less drag due to not needing a pulley...i only need a belt to run the crank and alternator now...plus the electric water pump flows 55 gallons a minute a lot more flow then the stock pump....also i can flip a switch and circulate the coolant at the dragstrip with the car shut off to speed the cooling process.
