I just threw it in quick to check to see how it fits and there does not look like there is room to get a hose on if you add a fitting due to washer tank.

no I guess im going to use it I got miserable since the cabin filter didn't come with it since they are on back order yea I don't know how many people have these tanks no one seems to have them on here. it will help keep it cool the car seems to shift a lot better now. just need my hoosier qtp's and hook it, and maybe get a run in without lifting in first gear now.

If that's what they all look like I'm not very impressed with the quality for the price. I hope you can get it to work for you

My front tank thread
https://mbworld.org/forums/w211-amg/...ml#post5881598
as part of testing where better to stress the system than on a dyno, so 4 back to back no break aggressive dyno runs later peak IAT on the final run hit 56 all runs on the graphs matched each other for power and torque.

yes it fits however on the street it seems fine with act temps but at the track when I drain it a little bit and ad ice my act temps are higher then my 03 cobra tank and stock heat exchanger set up

The concept was good as an alternative to a rear trunk tank but the product was poorly designed since he didn't copy a well designed product or relabel another manufacturers product as Steve at FTP has done many times before. Due to the pick up and return lines being in the front, when you are at the track and going through 3 gears, the feed line is starved due to the g force. It doesn't matter how full the tank was it would starve the pump. It amazes me that he sold so many and it took so long for members to realize why their IAT's were through the roof at the track but seemed okay on the street. Another POS product from FTP!
