I was considering a dry sump, but i get a bad feeling id hit an air pocket with the gas swooshing around...

I dont want to put a fuel cell in the back of a fd either...

www.rotaryextreme.com has a writeup about the gas resovior for running an external pump, no air pockets, minimal clutter in the rear of the car, check it out...

The term dry sump refers to an oiling system, not a fuel system.

With a dry sump there are two oil pumps with the oil residing in an external tank instead of an oil pan.

And WHERE in the world would we have space on an FD for a drysump system? :p

I guess we would probably have to remove the ABS and possibly put the tank there.
