There are actually some used computer stores around. Check your local paper. You can get an older business grade laptop with a serial port. Or, upgrade your serial VAG-COM cable to a USB cable. That's what I finally did.

You can also try ebay.

I did the hard work already finding a place for the pump and source for the fluid! [8D]

It actually got into the 80s on the drive home today. That's when you're glad you have water! The performance is simply awesome.

hmmmm idk about having the pump higher than the actual fluid....that creates more of a sucking effect rather than a pumping...these are some of the best pumps availible and im sure they can handle it but its a recommendation to have the pump lower than the fluid...and as close as possible...this means dont install your pump in your truck unless your fluid is back there with it...

These pumps are claimed to be self priming for up to 8 vertical feet.

I can't see the pics on this site right now (corporate network weenies filter some on-line photo sites), but I believe there is one that shows the new Aquamist system using aShurFlo pump mounted with the tank for trunk installations.

EDIT: Here's the pic I was referring to. Now that's a sweet setup. I'm sure Devil is gonna come up with something like that!

I wasnt looking, i was just saying no currently made laptop has them since the usb is so much faster.

It doesnt matter where you mount the pump, just as long as its close to the tank

Here ya go, from Dell. Starting at only $3899! [8D]




Actually there are some cheaper ones from Dell. Just search "serial port". Or just get the USB cable from Ross Tech. And if you don't need VAG-COM, ECSTuning has generic OBD USB cables for $30.
