What Size HX plumbing? Stock? 3/4”? 1”?
I am upgrading my entire Supercharger/cooling system with the following products and curious to know everyone’s thoughts on the appropriate plumbing size for my setup... I am leaning toward 1” throughout.
-Prospeed Heat exchanger -EMP WP29 HX pump -RotoFab Res Thanks in advance |

That looks clean! Do you run ice in that or just coolant?

I chose 3/4” over 5/8” which is what I was considering. I know the flow increase for 1/4” of hose is pretty substantial but I would think 1” has a greater capacity than most pumps but I don’t know that for sure. Looking at the numbers 3/4” looks more than adequate. Don’t know the difference in price so that would probably determine the chose at that point.

I’m leaning towards the 1” because the pump I got pushes excessively more fluid then even my Magnuson provided pump and night and day compared to ZL1 stock equipment... |

What pump are you running that requires 1"?
I'm running a Rule 2000 in tank and the stock Bosch after the HX pushing back to the tank. Works great |

That setup with the Rule pump is fairly popular. The flow of volume is inversely related to pressure, so if you have a pump that doesn’t flow well or won’t pump under greater pressure, I would use the 1” . Otherwise it probably won’t really matter , it will be dependent on the pump how much flow you have. Only down side would be the cost of the 1” vs 3/4”.

I’m going to be running the Stewart EMP pump (check out prospeed’s website to check it out) From my knowledge you can’t buy a better pump...

EMP is the top of the line, the instruction says to feed the pump with a 1" line so I just did the whole thing 1", but I'm not running to the trunk.

I'm running a chiller with no HX, I running BMR tank to the EMP pump to the chiller to the supercharger, I had the F manifold on the supercharger modified to accept -16 AN fittings so I could run the 1" to it, also when I ordered the BMR tank I had them weld -16 fittings on it.
