There are a few manufacturers of those I believe, most of them JDM companies like Carbing for example.

I've seen pictures of the revolution tank with both a screw on and a pressure cap. Mine should be here in about a week so I guess I'll know then.

I had the Revolution tank for a bit. Finally got around to installing it, all stoked...

Unfortunately, there's no way in hell you can install it with twins. It hits the crossover pipe bigtime.

This is one of those things that I'm surprised someone hasn't made. The stock thermostat housing is damn ugly and is up high and visible. A tank like that looks so much cleaner.
