Title: Any ideas where I can get a catch tank with 1" connection?
Post by: Jake on November 14, 2009, 12:51:02 PM
Hi guys, after a catch tank for my car but all I can find on ebay is ones with 15mm connections at biggest. As you know it's 1" off the back of the block and I dont want to use reducers or anything.
So anyone know where I can get hold of a catch tank with a 1" connection?

Cheers
Jake

yeah I've been looking on ebay. 15mm is the biggest I've found! whats everyone else using then? loads of people have done the boost return mod, surely they're not all using plastic bottles

Fanta bottle ;D

Even a 600bhp scooby (2009 Time Attack Champion 8)) i saw at cadwell park the other week was using a milk bottle,  :o :D

On a more serious note... most ive seen were custom made or from PSD when they were around.

I just got a mate with a tig welder to cut the normal small one of a alu tank and put a 1" one on.
