Though the Cobalt crowd (2.0) crowd is using the 1320 TVS.....ummm.

Same box, whoever still hasn't gotten it yet....you'll notice that the title of the PDF images is "shipment photos prior to departure".

I'm still convinced that he ordered a whole shipment of these from the Japanese MINI vendors Super cute!

Even more boring than an oil cooler...... come on.
I bet you could fit a small warp core in that box, but then we would need a source for di-lithium crystals.

Removing the water pump off the back of the M45 will eliminate the drag/parasitic loss
associated with having to pump coolant, in essence...adding power.

Maybe a pump for a W2A?

I really have no idea what it is...just guessing.

I will guess a W140AX, which you would need an electric water pump for.
That's the one I would fit, if I had the cash.

currently the smallest is 1320............. once we test it on the 2.0L stroker we will start on getting custom 900s made for the 1.6L as a direct bolt on replacement
