VRP Under hood tanks for E55 and CLS55 in stock and ready to ship!
Upgrade your cooling system with our Under-Hood tank! This tank effectively splits the intercooler system from the engine coolant system. You can pack it with ice for extremely cool intake temperatures on the street or at the track!
Key Features:
2.5 Liter capacity
includes tank and barb fittings.
Optional Cabin air filter relocation Filter and Mesh included.
Thanks to this forum and the members who contributed to find out the issue with the FTP style pickup, weve added a pickup tube to the back of the tank. But we may consider moving the fitting to the back of the tank altogether.
Will this tank work with your Intercooler , says 3/4 hoses both sides does the tank have other fittings ? ,I will need to run an additional heat exchanger also,thanks
when you say 2.5 gallon is that full to the brim? Because obviously you cant fill them right up? So is 2.5 with the system working and not full up? Or isit more like 1.5 gallon? Thanks

phew thanks for the update
is that the same for sl55 underhood tank?
says 2 gallon but should be 2 liter?
also isit okay for the water in the tank to submerge the water coming in from the top inlet hose? Or should the water coming in be free and drop ontop of the tank water

Of course! Yes, same for the SL55 under hood tank.
It would be fine for the upper return line to have the coolant filled up to it, because the force of the pump would not allow for the coolant to back track through the system

lovely thank you
am i right in saying with the sl55 hood tank
its still basically same process of the split cooling? So remove H connector
join the top 2 hoses
then connect the bottom 2 hoses with a T then from the top of the T run a hose to the outlet bottom of tank and then the top inlet hose to pump?
or isit a different set up
