Under car surge tank? in a gh? size and where will it fit?

Post by smacktart »

Hey just collecting parts and gathering everythings I need to convert my sigma turbo to efi I have nearly everything

I want to run a under car surge tank
1.because its illegal having it in your boot unless its 100% sealed
2. dont really like the smell of petrol in your joy and pride
3. Fuel pump will be quieter outside for me inside.

Im not sure where to mount this is the one I am interested in on ebay and he might be building me a custom radiator and intercooler have a look

Yea I got that guy to make me one. I wanted it mounted slightly differently, sent him a drawing and he made it up for me no probs (mine wasnt under car though, but same same but different). Good quality, good price.

Mine is mounted in the rear of my car (LC hatch) in a sealed box, the VL pump high pressure pump you use isnt that loud, it will be the lift pump from the fuel tank to the surge tank that will be loud.

I made up an under the car S/tank for my GE the same would fit a GH
its much the same as an in boot model except the mounting flange is on the top
I found room to hang it behind the diff towards the lhs
I'll try and get a couple of pics for you and the measurements

Check out this thread if you get the chance:

It's got some interesting pro's and cons of boot mount vs otherwise. It's also got pics of Mike's surge tanks. I bought one for my GK GSR and here is a pic of it dummy fitted :

The GH will probably be different but hopefully you can get it to mount somewhere. I finished the setup on the weekend including a Facet pre pump, z200 EFI filter, the surge tank, then a VL Pump feeding another Z200 filter in the engine bay. Was harder job than I thought but I got there in the end!
