Aloha all. I got a Hayward Super 2 Pump without the motor and the specs say that it can take from 1/2hp up to a 3 hp motor. Although 1/2 to 3 hp is a lot of difference, I do not see what pumping GPM will change if it is the same pump. (obviously a 1/2 motor may be straining to maintain 3450 rpm, but I do not see a 3 hp motor pumping even double the GPM, let alone the 6x difference in size. Can someone explain? thanks
