The Davies Craig EWP®80 Alloy Flange Combo Kit (#8908) is an all-in-one cooling solution engineered to maximize efficiency, reduce parasitic power loss, and eliminate heat soak. Formerly listed under part number #8907, this premium package pairs the compact, lightweight aluminum EWP80 pump module with the cutting-edge LCD Digital Controller to give you total, automated thermal management over your cooling setup.
Engine Displacement & Fitment
The EWP80 module is tailored for small to medium-displacement applications requiring reliable and precise thermal management:
- Recommended Engine Size: Suited for naturally aspirated, standard automotive engines up to 2.0 Liters (2000cc).
- Multi-Cylinder Layouts: Ideal for small to mid-capacity 4-cylinder and compact 6-cylinder engine platforms.
- Intercooler & Auxiliary Use: Highly effective as a dedicated high-flow pump for water-to-air intercooler setups on larger forced-induction engines, or for cooling electric vehicle (EV) battery packs and hybrid drive systems.
Maximum Performance For Small Engines & Intercoolers
By upgrading from a restrictive, mechanical belt-driven water pump to the remote-mounted EWP80 alloy kit, you shift full thermal management to an intelligent, ultra-efficient electronic layout:
- Unleash Hidden Horsepower: Eliminating the heavy parasitic drag of a traditional factory water pump can free up to 10kW (13hp) of extra power and noticeably improve engine response.
- Consistent Coolant Circulation: Unlike standard mechanical pumps that rely entirely on engine RPMs, the EWP80 delivers uniform, maximum flow regardless of whether you're idling in traffic or pinning it at full throttle.
- Combat Heat Soak: The system can be configured to continue running after engine shutdown, continuously dissipating target heat away from critical internal components to maximize engine life.
- Versatile Application Base: Perfectly tailored for naturally aspirated engines up to 2.0L, compact multi-valve setups, or as an upgraded, high-volume pump for water-to-air intercooler circuits.
Key Benefits
- Intelligent LCD Controller: The included next-generation digital controller monitors engine temperature and automatically varies pump speed to match cooling demand, maintaining target temperatures perfectly.
- Premium Alloy Housing: Manufactured from lightweight aluminum and finished in a resilient matte black powder-coat, optimizing heat dissipation and keeping bulk out of tight engine bays.
- 6-Bolt Flange & Barb Options: Features highly flexible 6-bolt flange connections on the inlet and outlet, supplied alongside 35mm (1-3/8”) straight and right-angle push-on barb fittings.
- Fuel & Cooling Efficiency: Reduces warm-up times and optimizes internal operating temperature ranges to promote an estimated 3.5% to 10% improvement in overall fuel economy.
