wildustu · 11-03-2009, 07:45 AM

thanks

I've had a meziere electric on my car for years. It has worked flawlessly, even back when the car was my daily driver.

I had one on my car. Wish I had the $$ back. It had a machining error in the body that failed in the 32 car at pinks. They fixed it no problem and then it just would not keep the car as cool down the highway as the mech pump.

I didn't get one for the longest time and when I did I had problems with it.

I have the $30 parts store one on now it is prefect.

X2 on the Meziere. I put one a my old Camaro 10 years ago and it's still going strong.

Ran a proform, miezere knock off, for 6 yrs with zero problems and that was racing every weekend and logging thousands of miles over those years Street/Stripping it. I put a new Proform one on it this spring ONLY because i wanted the polished on since my other one did'nt match the bling theme.

It keep 640hp plenty cool driving around town in my car that has zero direct air flow over the radiator due to body design, and i'd buy another one too solely based on the life and cooling ability i got out of the first one..that i still have, and now this new shiney one

Personally i've never heard much good about CSI/CSR products with seals failing/bearings failing so that is the one brand to stay away from based on all the problems soo many guys have had nationwide...they're not just a bad pump on street cars, but were also failing commonly on track only vehicles.

I have a Meziere on my hemi, no problems in about 3 years.

SmallBlockNova · 11-03-2009, 10:05 AM

Proform on my car...So far, so good

I have the black mezire on my car 1300hp on the street, 3200 rpm on the freeway a hour at a crack never goes over 170

The first CSI and last CSI one I owned fail on the dyno. That was right out of the box new, (What a turd) repaired it 3 times and it has lasted for 2 years now, but I will never buy another!!!

We've always ran CSR's and never have had any issues at all and will keep running them.

JeffMcKC · 11-03-2009, 06:27 PM

CSR has been on Drag Week tested tough

Project X · 11-03-2009, 06:33 PM

Same Meziere since 02' or so. No problems whatsoever.

I've had the same Meziere on my car for 8 years. It has a ton of miles on it and a ton of passes at the track. Never had any issues.
