Hey everyone!

I have an Evo 13 I run and I am looking to upgrade the return pump away from the stock pump. I want something a little stronger as the stock pump causes dead space in the filtration chambers. Does anyone have any suggestions? Looking for something that will fit in chamber 3 and something stronger than the stock pump.

Thanks!!
 
I upgraded mine to a Sicce Syncra 1.0 and it works great! It fit right in the same spot as the stock pump with a little working in. I got this to be able to use a Random Flow Generator (RFG) instead of the stock dual flange nozzles. Works great and lots of room for adjustments of flow.

The 1.0 is the biggest of their options that will fit in the chamber and give the maximum amount of flow. Depending on the flow you want the 0.5 and the 1.0 will fit. I have the 1.0 adjusted down to about 35% output, otherwise my sand would be a tornado in the tank.
