pro comp?
anyone use their eletric water pumps? my car has been running hot since i started using one and i noticed its not really flow any real volume of water(far cry from high volume as they claim..let alone not even close to what a stocker would) it just seems to trickle out the rad tubes with no real pressure at all i noticed that the ports are tiny as hell compared to the block ports...but figured they did their homework and this was normal but not sure now......

The voltage will be fine, but a smaller wire will not allow enough current flow to let it run at full power. You could test by running a heavier gauge wire to see if it flows more coolant. Couldn't hurt to try it.
