Us STS owners run the pump from here - http://www.rbracing-rsr.com/oilsystems.htm. It's one of the white ones toward the bottom of the page. Haven't heard of any failures yet with the Z STS guys. However, just some Googling came up with some other owners who have reported failures.

You can't win…you get flamed if you don't search but what do you do when searching yields a decent 5year old post? … nothing like reviving a 5 year old thread…
I'm running twin scavenging pumps after my turbos…my turbos are the run-of-the-mill greddy 18g - nothing unusual. I could make a case that they are not necessary bc the turb's are above the oil pan…but I am running them because I am running two oil coolers (one off a sandwich plate at the oil filter and one that taps in from a oil pan spacer).
My question is - I intend to manually power these on & off via a switch from the cabin - is there any reason why I should look into a high speed / low speed variation for different RPM ranges…
I will post up a picture & schematic of my setup and would appreciate any input how it's laid-out.

Dont know if they still use the same pump though. Got mine in 2008. Cant remember the brand but it was made in china. I have been told the pump is not designed to pump oil and is not designed to handle high temperatures.
It is commonly agreed on this forum that the turbox e.x.a pump is the best choice.
It is designed to pump oil and can handle high temperatures.
It also is rated for 10000 hr life span.
The sts pump I had was rated for 2000 hrs of life.
Btw I still have mine (barely used). Text me(kevin) if you need one@ 801-560-2727
