W/a intercooler system build

[dracing70]

I am in the process of retrofitting a w/a system on. My truck. The electric pump I'm using does not come with the harness. Is there somewhere to get supplies to make a harness. The pump I believe is for a vw so the plug is a certain shape. Any ideas besides just rigging some blade connectors.

Mouser. It will take a while of browsing, but you can find anything there.

Google is your friend. Get a beverage and be prepared to surf a while. If its available, they'll have it. I got OEM connectors for the GM fuse block under the dash so I could tap them for power and acc for my gauges.

What is everyone using for fluid in their heat exchangers for a w/a system. Antifreeze?? What about windshield washer fluid??

My Cobra IC runs antifreeze but it has a huge cooler below the plenum and a pump that circulates the fluid to an air cooler below the bumber. I think you will find that the bigger the resivour tank is the better it will cool.

Here is a pic of the system I'm building. I was wondering if windshield fluid will work since its cheaper and I would b wasting it everytime I change to my water box. It's more Eco friendly also.

Hopefully this system does a descent job for on road driving. I guess we will c.

water works better for cooling than antifreeze, cant you just use that? or are you using this in cold temps?

It's garaged in winter however I don't want to accidentally pull it out sometime and forget. So maybe I will try. Water and some washer fluid
