I never said I invented anything........I think I even posted what the pump was for the "haters" I have to deal with every time I come on the forums.

PLEASE, go source the Porsche 997 Cup Car pumps yourselves and build your own kits. Quite honestly, the lines are a PITA to make the brackets are a PITA to make and dealing with forums is a HUGE PITA too. As I stated it's on my car, I didn't find it on a Honda forum or anywhere else, I found it at the race track on a friends Porsche. If I never sell another kit, I will not be sad, it works killer on my car and that's all I truly care about.

Have a nice day everyone.

BOOM! Definitely no cheaper alternative pump that could be used that would reduce the price and improve the quality for the end user.

I like what you've done and as I said, nothing I said will cut into how many you sell at all. It's strictly there for the guys that are interested but would never spend the $1300 for it. They aren't potential customers either way. I also said nothing about sourcing used Porsche pumps.

Something that would make an awesome addition to the kit though is being able to put it back where the evap canister is located. It would get it completely out of the engine bay and move weight to the back of the car. The Mazdaspeed pump has a remote reservoir and you could mount the pump horizontal. The problem though as I said, it's CANBUS and goes into low pressure mode without that data.
Go back and re-read your response, it's not what you say, it's how you say it that ticks people off. So what you know where to get pumps, so what if you know how to wire a kit. Do you have a kit on your car, or have one for sale, if not then everything else is irrelevant. Why mention it, this guy took the time and money to make a bolt on application for our cars and your in here telling people to go by the parts here and there. That would **** anyone off.

I'm beginning to understand why this guy hates the forums

Moving it to the rear, for me, makes no sense, adding the weight of the lines and all the extra fluid/wiring.

Like I've said, truth is, I made this kit for ME. Selling any is a bonus but it doesn't truly matter to me if we do or not. Hell I can't even find pumps now, we've sold two and shipped them but now finding more pumps is taking forever.

Also, the kit does NOT wire to the battery directly, it wire to the alternator, yes, I realize that wire runs to the battery, but once the car is running the battery just stores energy.
the 50 amp draw at max load is very correct. on your car its not a problem as you dont turn much. heck it doesnt even get driven much. that coupled with you dont have A/C, A/C fan, wipers, stereo and whatever else you removed from your race car. my concerns were for those who might consider this for a daily driver. the first mr2 pumps needed 75 amps at max load. so the 50 amp units are a great improvement . I would bet without even checking that any car that comes with EPS will come with a beefed up alternator.

When did Davids Evo get stripped? I thought he had a stereo, wipers Etc.

You must be the first to be aware that he turned it into a race car that does not make any turns. I guess he also stopped the road courses he was running?

A totally rational response from David that I completely see eye to eye with him on.

Jeez this forum is going downhill. This place is nothing more than a place for losers to correct everyone. I don't own any of Buschurs stuff but at the same time if you don't like his product then **** off. Read the post and move on with your life.

Exactly. If you want to spend a ton of hours of your life to save a few hundred bucks and build a kit yourself...keep your comments to yourself and get after it. If you want to buy this bolt on kit and because you don't have the time to build the kit yourself, then Buschur has offered the option to do so which no other vendor does. Some people work their *** off and make a ton of money and saving a few hundred bucks isn't worth their time.

Thanks Dave for your service. Don't get hurt by the ********* on the forum.

Bostonhatcher, you definitely make billions of dollars a year bro and driving a 10 year old car completely proves that. You can throw money down the drain LIKE A BOSS!

If this was in the vendor section, I wouldn't have said a word. But it's not there, is it?
First off, you didn't **** me off it's not my product that your breaking down for everyone and trying to get them to buy parts elsewhere to build there own kits. I didn't spend who knows how many hours researching, building, time and money into creating something I thought was great for the community just to have some two bit chump come in and pick it apart because he is either broke or to cheap to afford mine. Np not me at all, Guess you read that wrong.

Regardless of what section your in, you don't go into anyone's thread about a product they designed and pick it apart and try to steer people in other directions. Have some decency and pm people or make your own thread because what you did was a slap in his face.

Time to just move on from here, I'm not gonna sit here and argue with you back and forth.

Miqsubishi, you're totally right bro. This is definitely the place for a circle jerk of vendor appreciation with no regards to alternative ideas.


Feel free to edit posts and retract statements as needed to completely hide anything of value I may have given to anybody in this thread. I was silly and forgot we were here strictly for "sweet bros" and "take my money" replies.

You misunderstood. I said it takes more than 1 hp to turn an alternator putting out 50 amp.

Also to correct you further, I have a stereo, electric water pump, engine fan, electric power steering, twin fuel pumps and wipers. SO from your long bull**** list of what you've accused me of removing, I have removed the A/C and A/C fan WHICH NO USA MODEL RS WAS EVER SUPPOSE TO COME TO THE USA WITH IN THE FIRST PLACE AND THE PRIMARY REASON I ORDERED AN RS WHEN I BOUGHT THE CAR IN 2004. I brought the car home from the dealer and took the A/C off it wasn't suppose to have within a week.

The original MR2 pumps need 90 amps actually and was the reason I had the Iraggi alternator and upgraded wiring on my car to begin with. It also needs PWM circuit board to be used, which is also on my desk still. That pump weighs probably 25 pounds and has no reservoir.
