A single Tunze 6101 is capable of pushing 3000gph and consumes 36w. So you can have 5 Tunzes before you have the same electrical draw as the Dart.

All I know is that power equals pressure times flow so I don't buy tunze's 3000gph rating at 36W. It's kind of like the whole emulator thing which claims to produce 3 times more flow. That's kind of what I meant by put the two side by side and feel the difference.

All things aside, the best is always in combinations. Go with a 4 way closed loop and a tunze wave box and you'll be good.
