The Best Surge Tank
that's exactly how it is set up, its just really close to the bottom intake runners and was really hard to attach the line properly

The Best Surge Tank
the backing plate had to be trimmed down a little between taking this photo and fitting it, cost was: $150 labour + alloy $80 fittings $20 hose clamps $20 hose $15 bracket $200 pump then took about an hour for me to fit up myself Im thinking of changing the alloy elbow to a rubber one some day. so that might add a bit more to the total cost. And if anyone wants to do the same, don't put the input fitting at the top of the tank, its pretty inconvenient

Engine Tick
the pulleys are cheap (between $15 and $50), get a metal one, that way even if it wasn't the problem, you have prevented the future problem (the plastic ones can melt and disintegrate) I had a ticking with my BF2 and it wasn't always there, once I removed the idler pulley it was clear that was the problem, the bearing sounded like a kids rattle.

Ross' Bf2 Xr6T
Yeah it was a bit of stuffing around Next time I would get a smaller outlet on the pod This one is 4.5" and pipe work that big wont fit past the power steering pressure switch I've got a cover over it now and a new pipe to plumb in the BOV and breather hoses

New Intake Setup
Due to the plenum and intercooler setup im about to install I needed (and wanted)to move to turbo-side intake Ive replaced my battery with an optima d51 so I now have enough room to fit the above filter in front of it so ive ordered one and will get some piping made up asap

Cai Begins
what size piping are you using and where did you get it from?

New Intake Setup
I'm just juggling with a few ideas to change the intake on my BF2 xr6t I'm thinking of a smaller (compared to the standard) optima battery with a pod filter sitting in front of it. Until my battery comes next week I don't know exactly how much space I have to work with (I don't think a conventional pod will fit) but I think something like this should fit http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/K-N-Universal-Air-Filter-RF-1021-4-5-FLG-5-88-B-3-25-X-4-5-T-8-H-/400309213544?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&hash=item5d3449d968#ht_1515wt_905 what's peoples opinions as to how well this will flow for our cars

Custom Intake?
have you seen the gap most of these cars have between the bumper and headlight? Plus the big mouth kits pick up air then pass it over the radiator, which will help to heat it up
