Sean73 Posted November 7, 2008 Share Posted November 7, 2008 I took an aftermarket aluminum power steering reservoir and drilled/tapped AN fittings into it. Cost about $50 plus the fittings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djbit Posted November 7, 2008 Share Posted November 7, 2008 Do you mind letting me know which exact reservoir you got (link)? Any pics? Thanks man! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitechocolatelove Posted November 21, 2008 Share Posted November 21, 2008 for my turbo swap on my 240 i used a 4 inch wide piece of abs tubing and threw caps on either end. ran three fittings off the top and one off the bottom and so far it has worked great! total cost was $17 at lowes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

timbo1jz Posted December 1, 2008 Share Posted December 1, 2008 those are seriously the nicest welds I have ever seen in my life! they are perfect!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mayolives Posted December 2, 2008 Share Posted December 2, 2008 UPDATE: QUOTE: I installed a . 5 gallon surge tank on my firewall under the bracing. I do have safety concerns due to having it in the engine bay and may move it to the rear whenever I decide the best way to fit it. Those nice welds did not hold up. One split and gas was pouring through the firewall and on to the passenger side floor. This was a recipe for disaster. I was on track when it happened, hit the kill switch and nervously waited for the tow vehicle to drag me in. A FIREWALL MOUNTED SURGE TANK IS AN UNSAFE AND BAD IDEA!
