Message	I ask because I'm guessing that there is some advantages to an hydraulic pump that makes the system more suitable for a sports car? Maybe you guys can confirm. I was thinking of swapping to an electric pump but I was wondering why a car made 20 years later is still using the same setup as the z? Thanks guys "torque gets you off the line...& hp gets you over the line." - TTKeeper
