However there is a point were the oem spec pump becomes inefficient at high flow although not enough to cavitate as there has been no evidence that I've heard of in the last 4years, also at lower rpms the flow will not be as high as the electric constant flow pump, I have installed the pump to do away with as much parasitic drag and give me more cooling control especially trackside where I can have the pump flowing - even whilst the engine is off

My Car is far from BPU now - here is the spec

Imho, that guy was having cooling problems because he was trying to roadrace with electric fans. Also, note that his specs are considerably beyond BPU+++. Again, if you are going to be BPU or BPU+++ (i.e. if you're going to be staying with the oem twins), you can be 100%+++ confident that the oem water pump will be far more than sufficient to do the job for you.

NB: Please consider posting any help requests in a new thread instead of asking me for help privately. About 99.9+% of the time, private help requests end up covering great information that could be very valuable to other forum members. If you have a good reason for needing the help request to be private, I'll consider it. If not, then why not give everyone else the opportunity to pitch in too, and/or learn from the information? Remember, there's no such thing as a dumb question. We're all here to help within this family of Supra owners.
