I have a G5
, and the mp-1 block is restrictive so thats why I was considering powerful pump. Oh and by the way, stew has an rd-30 I believe - and from what I read he runs it at 18v which is a good compromise between heat + power.
Also when undervolted the heat dump into water at 18v is closer between the to, and the rd-30 has a clear power gain making this one my preference - however as others have pointed out, $300 is alot for a pump! I currently use a 50Z (MCP600) which has a very low dump - and I know the PA160 cant take the heatdump like a 120.3 so this is why I was thinking about not changing.
However if you think the rd-30 dump at 18v is about the same as a MCP655 then the output it has is phenominal!
