Where would I purchase a surge tank? - SRT Forums

ziggo0 · 04-14-2012, 07:49 PM

Started piecing together on my fuel system online. Looking to get a 1 gallon surge tank to mount in the batterys stock location. I've only briefly googled it...but where would I order a surge tank at lol. I wouldn't mind the passenger fender location either...just figured the stock battery location would be more secure incase of front end collision.

Would a small 1 gallon race cell fit your needs? Thats the cheapest solution that I came across.

That's what I use. 1 gal aluminum fuel cell from summit racing. However, the cap seal will not hold up well if you use e85. I had my cap hole welded shut.

1 gallon is plenty, and yes I plan to use e85. I didn't know Summit carried stuff like that, guess I shoulda looked there first lol. I plan to have -6an from tank, -6an return to tank, -6an return from regulator and -8an feed to a bosch 044 -8an to rail.

I think you're talking about this one: RCI Racing 2010A - RCI Aluminum Fuel Cells - Overview - SummitRacing.com - did you mount that in the passenger fender area?

**gump1114** · 04-15-2012, 11:57 AM

That's exactly right. I had one more filling welded on and a frail welded in.

Here's and old picture. It's cluttered, and doesn't look good, but works.

im using a cxracing surge tank, bought it off ebay for around 70 shipped. I had pwerks weld a second outlet bung on in case i ever need 2 pumps, there weld quality is identical

:

CXRacing Universal Aluminum Fuel Surge Tank 5"x9" Acura Integra Audi BMW | eBay

They offer them with a ton of different fitting options, mine uses 8an outlets on the bottom, 2 above that were 6an, and very top was 8an (i just used a reducer)

IE Submerged 044 Billet Surge Tank WITH PUMP | Blue Water Performance
i like this one , not needing any more space for the pump

**gump1114** · 04-15-2012, 05:22 PM

^^^ yeah I like those. Had I seen those before I got my setup I would have gone that route.

Good idea but overpriced in my opinion.

It's not too bad if you get the one without the pump and source your own 044 elsewhere. You can usually find them new from $150-180 if you look around.

ziggo0 · 04-19-2012, 09:23 AM

Jay Racing's modifed 044 is $189 as well...considering that over the normal 044.

boostalot717 · 04-19-2012, 10:55 AM

Oh just took a quick peek and seen the 400+ price tag.

Well, I went ahead and ordered that CX Racing one Masat03 is using. Ordered a bunch of fittings from Summit, placed order for a Jay Racing Pro Series 044 today, Denso 1200cc injectors as well as a bunch of other little stuff...hopefully this build will be promising!
