You don't need forced circulation for 1000w.
Waste of time + money.

If you had something like this you would want forced circulation:

If you still want a pump don't use a dish washer pump, that sounds like a bad idea on so many levels. Get something that can handle engine bay heat, hot coolant and cooling system pressure for years.
Some Audis, VWs and BMWs have auxiliary coolant pumps that circulate coolant through the turbo after the engine is shut off.
