Hi All....
Well, I'm still in the process of collecting the components for
my 4AGTE in my AW11..... and decided to go for Water-to-air
intercooler as this is the best setup for a mid mounted engine.
Anyway.... the components I have at this point is only the
Subaru RS Liberty WA IC unit, but no other components.
The info I require is what kind of water pump should I be
getting and front cooler for the water. Where can I buy them
here in Oz and the aprox cost I should be looking at.
Any info is greatly appreciated.....
Thanks
MIKE.

I run a Davies Craig Electronic Boost Pump. Note, EBP, not EWP.
I have it running constant which isn't a good idea... Try hooking up a boost switch so that it only pumps when there's boost.
As for the heat exchanger, any air conditioning core would do the trick as long as it fits... Bigger is good, but remember that along with size comes weight... Water weighs 1kg per litre (from memory).

Your memory is spot on. Water is heavy. 1000kg/m^3
Not as heavy as bricks though...
