scott87 Posted January 20, 2014 Share Posted January 20, 2014 I have just fitted my intercooler and for the time being the car is going to be used non turbo until i get the space to drill the pan. My question is i couldnt fit the expansion tank in the original place. So other than access being a bit annoying is there any reason why placing it here would cause the system to not work correctly?

Dnk Posted January 20, 2014 Share Posted January 20, 2014 Fit a smaller tank next to the battery Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scott87 Posted January 20, 2014 Author Share Posted January 20, 2014 Fit a smaller tank next to the battery That is the plan or a slim one behind the back of the intercooler. But for the time being the car needs to be used. There are no kinks in the hose from the rad and the expansion tank is lower than the rad so i assume functioning wise this will be fine?

Dnk Posted January 20, 2014 Share Posted January 20, 2014 The HKS relocation bracket lets you fit it here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scott87 Posted January 20, 2014 Author Share Posted January 20, 2014 The HKS relocation bracket lets you fit it here Ah fair enough. So basically exactly what i have already done but on the other side. So i take it, it works perfectly fine fitted lower down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the picture. Can someone just confirm to put my mind at rest that the coolant system will operate properly where i have placed it for the time being.
