    You dont need it like so most people like myself just take it out, you wont see any performance gains but the pump is fairly heavy and it tidies up the engine bay aswell

    Even beter behinde your glove box..... 3 screws hold in a plastic heater box where the air con rad sits, open it up remove all the dead insects inside and the alloy rad... better/cleaner heating and no alloy pipes sticking out of the firewall
