Default Air/Water Setup.. What pumps & size of resoviors ppl using?

Just curious on what kind of pumps, (GPH) inline pumps you guys are using, and how large are your guys resoviors?

Thanks

the max reservior size that is NHRA legal is 3 gal. This is the pump I'm using, I think it might be a little overkill but, oh well. The pump is supposed to flow 20 gpm. I think that is probably too much for what I need but when I fill the reservior up with ice the intercooler gets cold in a hurry.


some more pics of the set up

Wanted to add a question. Where's a good place to get that smaller spearco core? I'm looking for the 2-252.

As for reservoir size, I plan to go with a 2.5-3 gallon, and a 10 gallon per minute pump. That would give you 15-20 seconds in boost without the water running through the core twice.

Very nice, I like the cooler setup you have. Might consider that if I was planing on driving it on the street

I was thinking a 1GPM inline pump, I just dont justify spending over 100 bucks on a pump that is only used for 12 seconds. I mean its already going to be pretty damn cold.

I contacted Spearco and they said they use a 2.1gpm pump..

How much psi are you guys running on this pumps? The pump I looked at said 10psi.

3 gallon resovior sounds good.

Thanks
