CONSUMER WARNING:
Be extremely wary of any cheap gear pump offered up for sale purporting to be a \"turbo\" oil scavenge pump. Identification is easy - they areblack with brass pump heads, or arepainted all white or blue. These are ALL cheap Chinese-made cold-water pumps!They are simply re-labeled (or un-labeled)marine,intermittent-duty TRANSFER pumps - TOTAL JUNK -and totally inappropriate for this critical application. $1200+ turbo(s) at risk from a cheap Chinese-made WATER(!)pump.These are commonly available throughout the world, especially on - eg, seller gkwholesale who has now recently resurfaced as wholesalegk.The latest source for this Chinese garbage is seller kap_distributors. These are the same failure-prone types sourced by STS, RB RACING, etc. Regardless of what these sellers claim, these pumps will fail prematurely. We see it constantly - once or twice each week minimum.And no wonder - they are NOT even designed to run continuously, and all are specified to a maximum of 170-185F (WAY too low for turbo drain oil, and which is why none of these sellers specify the operating temperature nor where its made). These are some of the reasons TurboWerx had their pumps custom designed by the actual pump manufacturer engineers with all the proper materials and components, specifically for this application. Half of TurboWerx pump sales are from customers who are replacing a failed competitor\'s pump, and more importantly, most of these suffered turbo damage/failure, and even engine damage. The difference in price for a properly designed pump is absolutely trivial compared to the risk. If you have the opportunity to inspect or open up any other seller\'s pump- regardless of their claim otherwise- you will find \"China\" as the manufacturing origin. Please do not just take our word for it...do your own on-line research on the TurboWerx Exa-Pump,and contrast this with thedisastrous results of utilizing the cheapwater pumpsfor turbo oil-return. You have been warned.TurboWerx continues market dominance year after year, and is the only manufacturer to offer a 2-year warranty for the Exa-Pump®, even for racing applications, when purchased from TurboWerx, or an authorized reseller.
** Going further:
Compare for yourself. Here is a typical example of a cheaply madegear pump misappliedfor the turbo oil scavenge marketand the factory specification sheet for it (scroll down to page 8 for English version/temperature limits): Marco UP3/OIL Spec Sheet. Even though it\'s an Italian company, their pumps, like ALL the others, are Chinese-made with the lowest quality materials. The most important facts in the factory specification are:• Maximum fluid temperature of 185F. - This is even below the engine oil temperature before it goes through the turbo!• Maximum ambient temperature 60C (140F). - Just about every active partunder the car is much higher than this.• No warranty if used for turbo oil temps- Page 8 states the warranty will expire if maximum fluid temperature is exceeded!
• Page 7 states twice\"discontinuous or intermittent use.\"- No wonder these things fail so quickly.
• Replace brushes every 2000 operating hours. - Major maintenance every12months due tolow-quality, minimum-cost brushes?
VDO -Anotherelectrical oil pump that has recently surfaced in the marketplace is the unit made by VDO. This pump is being improperly marketed on out of the U.K. by seller pepperperformance1as a \"universal\" turbo oil scavenge pump foraftermarket applications. This the pump was NOT designed for this - not even close. The flow specifications are woefully inadequate - LESS THAN 0.6GPM (pathetic!). TurboWerx Exa-Pumps far exceed this (by >5X), and are far more rugged. The VDO unit is known to jam easily, and fail. The VDO pump was designed for circulating engine oil through an external oil cooler - NOT as a scavenge pump (and certainly not for any pressure applications), and is way overpriced for what it does do. There is a reason the VDO unit has no warranty offered, whereas TurboWerx Exa-Pumps have a 2-year manufacturer\'s warranty. Once again, you have been align=\"left\" style=\"font-size: small; \">
