drift_inertia Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 It looks well made to me, the welds are clean looking and with a 1.8l capacity it should be plenty of safe guarding. My buddy used a 1 liter surge tank on his T2 FC3S RX-7 and it worked great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
junglist Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 All of the surge tanks I've seen on ebay are from australia. Why is it that surge tanks are "common" knowledge or used more down there than here stateside? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
inlawZ Posted December 18, 2008 Author Share Posted December 18, 2008 so with a surge tank is this right as far as installing it? fuel tank -> filter -> 5psi electronic fuel pump -> surge tank -> zxt fuel pump -> filter -> fuel rail then of course... return line -> surge tank -> fuel tank that correct?

turborust Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 Why would you need a surge tank on the return line? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
inlawZ Posted December 19, 2008 Author Share Posted December 19, 2008 it would be the same surge tank, 3 openings on top and 1 on bottom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
