    The pump is a Barnes/Haldex 11 gpm 2-stage pump which is sold under many different brand names.

    If I swap this 11gpm pump out for a 16pm pump how much time will I gain?

    Not enough to justify the expense.

    Some of the 16gpm's are in the 9 second cycle time range.

    When changing pumps you have to be sure the engine has the hp. to operate the pump. A 11gpm 2-stage pump requires a 5.5 hp. engine min.. A 16 gpm 2-stage pump requires a 8 hp. engine min.

    I just installed an 11hp honda. Originally had a 10 hp B&S. Honda seems to work less.

    Need to know your cylinder size. (Bore x stroke). 16 gpm pumps aren't bad $$ wise. 22 gpm and up is where the money is. I would be looking to upsize with that engine on there too. 16 GPM would be a breeze on that Honda.
