I've watched all your videos and I've been modeling my modifications of my B8 S5 to your S4. Now that CSF has a replacement rad., I'd love to see a video of that upgrade and your results. Just as important is if your shop would allow you to do a vid on the install. Keep up the great work!
Good stuff man. We are in a bit warmer of a climate but got the same results... About a 5-7 degree difference (cooler after install), but the recovery times dropped drastically. Wait until you run those 3/4" lines 👌🏻
@@dtrywets6266 Distilled water and OEM g13 coolant concentrate. You can get the concentrate from the parts department at a dealer. Do a little math to get the 80/20 mix. Or whatever mix you want. But if you have to deal with freezing Temps, I would run a 60/40 mix to be safe. If garaged, a 70/30 might be fine.
I was looking at the instructions for the CWA-100, it says “ that in some vehicles” the pump may need one of the wire’s cut so it can always perform at 100%. Now would you recommend that I cut the wire or? Also mine is the B8.5 motor
Great Video! Interested to see how much change there will be with the 3/4 inch tubing. Do you think it's worth getting this pump if I'm just stage 1 at the moment? I do live I Texas however, so it's 38°c here regularly. Still on OEM heat exchanger.
Theoretically speaking...Do you feel that a larger external 1 gallon resovior would provide more cooling for a pass vs the pump? Trying to figure out the most beneficial next mod... these 95° days are killing me.
Great video! refreshing quality content presenting interesting topics but in a fact-driven manner. I am keen to put this pump on an RS6 C7. Not sure if the harness is compatible.
Maybe im a bit late but over here in Germany we have never came to the Idea to change the Waterpump for a stronger one. Sounds Interesting. Do you have the Links for the parts that you have used? I have found a replacement Pump from merc racing but what about these 3/4 inch tubes? Where Can i get ones with good performance? And have you replaced all the coolant lines that goes from the waterpump to the Supercharger and heat exchanger?
Near the end of this video I show everything we removed and where the 3/4 inch tube was installed: ruclips.net/video/2vvh9_OKKUk/видео.html The tube was simply purchased from a local car repair shop, nothing fancy.
i watched this video again and I have a question: once installed and running (6.27 in the video) you talk about how its at 64%, 80%. Is that refering to the pumps capacity? And will the ECU naturally take advantage of the pump ability to move more fluid or does some tuning need to be done?
That's referring to the pump's duty cycle. I was simply running a test when I was showing multiple percentages. When the car is on and running, it always runs at 99% I believe.
I don't track my b8.5 s5, but I'm looking to go stage 2, crank pulley upgrade. I know I'll need to upgrade my hx. But getting the upgraded pump might be worth it. Especially during the summer months where I live. When its over
Great video, I've had CWA100 for a couple of years and its a great little pump. I'll be interested to see if you get a fault code with the pump, it could be the later versions fixes that but it has no impact on the performance. Is your system divorced? if not are you looking at doing that? One advantage is being able to run more water and water wetter during the summer but adds a maintenance to replace coolant for winter.
Yes, I have the same code. There is no feedback so that code is expected. The system is not divorced. We still aren't sure whether or not we'll be going that route or not.
@@VancityAudi ah ok, only heard, that you said 10 30 60% or something and 88% is stock duty cycle. So I wondered why they didn’t modified it. But so…it’s ok haha
Adam did yall have to change any wiring? I had my pwm wire cut and the pump cools 10° more with the wire attached? Wondering if its running at 100% with the pwm wire attached?
Meaning that it's not about me testing the power output for people to see how well the product works. It's about proving how much lower the IAT's are for optimal performance.
When you're wanting to get every drop of performance out of your car it's absolutely worth it. One of, if not the biggest performance losses in these cars are the IAT's being way too hot and your car loses massive amounts of power.

Over the years I've stuffed around with these cars. I'm glad to see you get excited about it . after 45 years in the trade why bother
Any modification that I make to my cars that makes a positive impact on performance is enough for me to get excited about.
Thanks Adam! Can’t wait for more! I didn’t get to log my cwa-100 but Saw my intake air temps go down and recover very fast!
Bro, this is awesome. I just got my pump in a week ago and this is making me wanna install it even more now! Awesome content as always.
Thanks!

I don't see any need to upgrade my radiator. Sorry, it will remain stock.
Good stuff Adam. I don't race my B8.5 but kool to know that there is an upgrade that works!
Good video man always making things pretty clear and we are lucky to have you in the 3.0 tfsi world
I appreciate that. Thanks for watching
Gotta get me one of those pumps! Thanks Adam
No problem!
Good stuff man. We are in a bit warmer of a climate but got the same results... About a 5-7 degree difference (cooler after install), but the recovery times dropped drastically. Wait until you run those 3/4" lines 👌🏻
Glad to hear my testing was accurate then!
The guys at the farm are like damn that Passat is fast.
They love seeing the white Audi's fly by
I saw huge results when divorcing my supercharger coolant and running a 80/20 mix. I don't see intake Temps under load, over 60c on my sq5.
what coolant are you running?

You're very welcome. Another great product from your company!
Solid results. Thanks for always doing the research for us
You're welcome
once again i love the video
Thanks

Now would you recommend that I cut the wire or? Also mine is the B8.5 motor
If I remember correctly, I show how to test how the pump is actually working in this video.
Great Video! Interested to see how much change there will be with the 3/4 inch tubing.
Do you think it's worth getting this pump if I'm just stage 1 at the moment? I do live I Texas however, so it's 38°c here regularly. Still on OEM heat exchanger.
Start off with the heat exchanger. That should be your first upgrade... period.
Theoretically speaking...Do you feel that a larger external 1 gallon resovior would provide more cooling for a pass vs the pump? Trying to figure out the most beneficial next mod... these 95° days are killing me.
Do both. One or either isn't enough with these motors. I used this to add more volume: ruclips.net/video/80jnlqNax6Q/видео.html
Great video! refreshing quality content presenting interesting topics but in a fact-driven manner. I am keen to put this pump on an RS6 C7. Not sure if the harness is compatible.
Thank you, and good luck! I'm not sure it is compatible.

I would highly recommend it for anyone that lives in a warmer climate.

@@VancityAudi does it throw a dash cel?
@@stevemcc00 no, just a soft code
@@VancityAudi plug and play? I think I’m gonna order one
What would be the point to removing the secondary heat exchanger? Surely at the very least its adding volume to the system?
Bottleneck. Lines are so small they impede flow.
@@VancityAudi Ah ok fair enough!
Any thoughts on the CWA150? I'm guessing better results being as the pump flows more. Should I go with that instead of just getting a 100?
Sadly I can't comment on that part seeing as I've never used it and I've never seen any results from anyone else's car.
Yes. It’s the high pressure version. Cwa150 is better than cwa100.
Adam any thoughts in the future on maybe trying a divorced cooling system for the supercharger.
We haven't decided if we are going to go that route yet, but if I do you'll all know the results of how well it works or not!
@@VancityAudi Good deal and keep putting the work in. Best Audi channel around and to the point.
@@melvingrimes7886 Thank you very much!
Do you happen to know what the temperature outside was these days?
I don't, sorry.
I just bought this will it work on my 2012 Audi s4 no problem?
My stock one was leaking
Helps to watch the video before asking the question, haha.
And what about quater mile times buefore and after install cwa100 ???
I'm for test whitout OEM additional HX 😀
My guess would there would be very little difference unless you were racing in an extremely hot climate.
Why integrated didn’t modify the PWM signal of the pump? I do that on all my 3.0tfsi Tuns…no problem
Who said they didn't? lol. When the car is running, the coolant pump runs at 94.99% duty cycle at all times.
@@VancityAudi ah ok, only heard, that you said 10 30 60% or something and 88% is stock duty cycle. So I wondered why they didn’t modified it. But so…it’s ok haha
@@GolfGTIStyle That was simply running tests on it after install. The car wasn't running
@@VancityAudi yeah. Check. ;)
@@VancityAudi anyway, great results
Do you need a tune with this ?
No
So is the stock pump a CWA50?
I'm not sure honestly. I would assume so.
Adam did yall have to change any wiring? I had my pwm wire cut and the pump cools 10° more with the wire attached? Wondering if its running at 100% with the pwm wire attached?
Everything we did was included in the video. Just log it with VCDS and you'll be able to see the duty cycle of the pump.
you say that it is not about power, but lower IAT = more power. For sure
Meaning that it's not about me testing the power output for people to see how well the product works. It's about proving how much lower the IAT's are for optimal performance.
Anybody else hear belt slip right at the end of the second run listen 8:15
No, there was no belt slip.
$400 for seven degrees?
When you're wanting to get every drop of performance out of your car it's absolutely worth it. One of, if not the biggest performance losses in these cars are the IAT's being way too hot and your car loses massive amounts of power.
