WW Meth -> Trunk Mount time :)

Pretty much converting my entire WW BMS kit to a DO setup. SS lines, new fittings, new solenoid..everything is getting replace but the pump. Time to hit a N55 AWD 1/4 this sunday! Going to install everything and send prelogs to Terry on Friday.

Thank you Rob aka madmanhiker for getting me started on the conversion!

Atco is 20 minutes from my house so I usually go there.

Intercooler is going in this Friday so maybe in the near future I will run my car again.

that's how mine is mounted to. very stable, nice low temp environment. Did you do the float switch? if not (or conversely if you have questions) I have the answers. Let me know. Yes, 100% flow (dependable) is a nice change huh?

I did the the float switch but have no LED to hook it up to... The flow is so good, my meth needle goes off the gauge. SS lines are nice too as I have 0 leak issues (so far).

Awesome. Continue to keep us posted.

Did you do the install yourself? Maybe you could help me when the time comes.

Remember what happened to me at the track??? I ended up getting a new tank and secured it properly. I think it was jerking around back there causing one of my connections to loosen up! This time i bought straps to strap it down in place nice and tight. The other advantage is that i can UN-buckle it when i need to re-fill easily!

This one has a sump and baffle built in so no matter how hard I take a corner, i would always have juice to about 1qt.

How long is the labor for installing the trunk mount meth kit? I got quoted today 6 to 8 hours at $90.00 an hour...

I'd be very weary to even give your car to the shop that quoted you that many hours. Mine took about 2 hrs to route the lines, mostly because I had to jack the car up, take the covering off underneath and put it all together again on the floor with jack stands. I'd say it took another 2 to install the tank, and electric parts in the engine bay and testing for leaks.

4 maybe 5 at most and you can do it all yourself!
