ManwithSupra Posted October 27, 2013 Author Share Posted October 27, 2013 How much power does this add ? Nice addition. I am tempted by one myself It adds 1 billion horsepower.. It is also actually lighter then the standard one so that's my justification Honestly though its down to the fact it was for sale and it was a good price.

Paul Whiffin Posted October 28, 2013 Share Posted October 28, 2013 Popped on my Carbon cover yesterday, now the engine bay needs more carbon https://scontent-a-lhr.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-prn2/1391980_541411289266852_640723889_n.jpg That can be arranged Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul Whiffin Posted October 28, 2013 Share Posted October 28, 2013 Yeah, we will need to talk soon. I can also have the off the shelf carbon parts made in super lightweight carbon if needed, takes a few months to get them made but they do save weight.

ManwithSupra Posted January 19, 2014 Author Share Posted January 19, 2014 (edited) Another Quick update, In order to make the car safer (decrease the risk of a fire) I have decided to remove the single skin aluminum tank that Ryan had made and replace with a new fully FIA approved ATL fuel cell. I have gone for the 40ltr Saver Cell with internal twin pump collector and the official ATL Fuel cell container. I am going to install the two Walbro 255 pumps in the internal collector and have the Bosch 044 as the main push pump for the rail. So far I have removed the tank as I am just waiting for these parts to arrive from ATL. Here is the Old tank and fuel setup https://fbcdn-sphotos-c-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-frc1/t1/995050_580945861980061_507707388_n.jpg Pumps and Fuel lines removed https://fbcdn-sphotos-b-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-ash3/t1/1512654_580945901980057_1370633978_n.jpg Ready for Fuel cell cage to be welded in. https://scontent-b-lhr.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-prn2/1484231_580945995313381_1757671185_n.jpg Old Tank https://scontent-b-lhr.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ash3/1512625_580946015313379_2069640210_n.jpg Don't forget to subscribe to the Facebook page if you wish to have more updates.

bignum Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 Looks like 1 of those tool chests for the back of a van:), high quality by the looks though,do they custom build them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ManwithSupra Posted January 30, 2014 Author Share Posted January 30, 2014 Looks like 1 of those tool chests for the back of a van:), high quality by the looks though,do they custom build them? Yeah lol it does, it will be sat down in the recess where the old tank was though and it will be covered by firewall as well so you wont get to see it much. I am astounded by the quality to be honest (well it should be good for the price lol) I am happy knowing though that in a crash I am not going to burst into flames. ATL do custom stuff but it is expensive, they dont just do motorsport and fuel but a whole host of different applications. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ManwithSupra Posted February 11, 2014 Author Share Posted February 11, 2014 Added some heat reflective tape to the underside of the tank container. https://fbcdn-sphotos-c-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-frc3/t1/1620577_592371294170851_1092309759_n.jpg I also added some spacers on the tank cage but I didn't get a picture of that. Just need to weld the cage into the car, paint it and then I can get on with getting the fuel system back together Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
