I've been running the Johnson CM-30 pump in my SSB SRT6 roadster for almost two years . . . no problems. I also recently installed the updated Bosch pump on my black SRT6 roadster. The updated Bosch pump is a simple "plug & play" swap while the Johnson pump requires some minor modifications to the wiring and the pump mount. While I believe either pump is a good choice, I would now go with the updated Bosch pump just because of the ease in doing the swap.

I'm not aware of anyone's definitive experience that concluded the pump actually caused intercooler leaks. I believe that the intercooler leaks were strictly related to poor quality welds (repair type welds) made on the intercooler part during the manufacturring / pre-assembly process. Some specific discussion and photos here . . .

Rudy or Woody would be the forum's resident experts to address this issue but maybe other members will chime in here regarding intercooler leaks . . .
