Posted By: giddyup306 True Duals....under the tank - 04/21/06 03:14 PM
I have everything I need for my true dual setup less the heat wrap, resonators, and balance pipe. I've decided to do it as per Deamon. Under the tank. I did some searching and he always refers to a fuel cell. Is he literally talking about an aftermarket fuel cell? Has anyone done it with the stock tank with just using thermo tec? There is suposed to be pics of the true dual setup on Deamons site but I couldn't find any pics of the underside of the car. I also looked in the pics forum, performance forum, and the archives for pics. I coundn't find any that went under the tank. Also a lot of the pics were no longer hosted...


So if some of you can help me out by giving me some suggestions and possiblly providing a pic I'd appreciate it.

Get a fuel tank from an x-type

I've never heard of using an x type tank. Pray tell what year. I'd assume 96+ but just want some clairification.

well since they didn't stay making the Jag X-type until 01 you might have trouble finding a tank from a 96 to 00

I found that out when looking at carpart.com. THey only have 02-05 tanks. I would have made an ass of myself calling in for a 96 tank.

You don't need no Jag tank. Just go ahead with the stock Contour tank.

Demon calls the stock tank a fuel cell, cos it's plastic.

Demon has H&&R springs with his true duals. Wonder how he did it.
