Nothing needs modified for the tank to fit. And The Tank is currently out of the car to make the jigs for production. The coolant lines simply go straight down to the SPC unit area and to the H/E and S/C aluminum line. The tank can also be used in circuit with a Trunk tank.

I want this, but would need the filter too....Also, how much fluid does the tank hold ? Also, how do the lines pass through the gasket ? Thanks

The tank holds a little over 2 gallons, and the lines go right over the rubber seal, you can make 2 insertions if you wish for the lines which is what we did.

We have a test car That Is possibly Swinging by the shop Next week. From what I see it should fit in there just like the W211 Chassis.

When I built my tank a while back I ran my lines right over the gasket like mentioned and only have 5/8" lines right now (going to go up to 3/4") when I finish my intercoolers. Even with the 5/8" lines it gets pinched down running over the top of the gasket. I have been out of town working so have had no time to change things around to see if I can find a fix but running 3/4" lines will definitely be a problem if simply running over the gasket because even smaller 5/8" get crimped down some, not sure if this impedes flow or not with the hood closed but you can see where the line is smashed when you open the hood.
I really had no interest in producing these for a market when I built it (mainly because I did it at a friend's welding shop while visiting family back home), but it is cool that others can now buy one with the FT-P offering because I know people wanted me to make them one after I showed mine done.
Here is what the lines look like on mine. Notice the crimped line on the left in the first pic. It is a little tough to see but if it ends up like that with the hood open then who knows what it is doing with the hood closed. So you may want to try cutting a hole or removing something there for a better travel path of the hose, especially if using larger lines, but then again it is kind of pointless using a larger line because the metal line that goes up to the stock intercooler is small as well as the fittings on the stock intercooler and it will bottle neck there rendering the larger 3/4" lines of no value.
