If weight saving is a benefit I think I'll buy a generic surge tank and eat a beef vindaloo on the thursday before friday night drags well before I pay $1300 for a falcon specific surge tank. You can buy generic 4L tanks with twin 044 brackets for under $300 today, genuine curiosity as to what makes a falcon one cost 300% more when its less than 1/2 the size.. have I missed something?

Theres also $150 1.5L b-series specific tanks up on ebay at the moment too, anyone tried these?

Material used and is plug and play, don't need to source pumps, fittings or make mods so it fits.

Luke those surge tanks are pure junk on ebay

Super thin walled, very prone to leaking ( seen a few now ) and this is just the start

Surge tanks need to be correctly baffled internally and this is just the start of it, the plaz and pw undercar surge tanks are ok value for money when u look at the quality and finish then backed up with the quickest and highest power turbo falcons in the country and countless other vehicles over the past decade

Proven product for reasonable coin to suit nearly any fuel demanding situation
