Gauging vendor interest. (COOLING MOD)
Ok I am pretty sure this is perfectly within the rules on the site. Basically, I want to see who all would be interested in purchasing my reservoir swap as an entire kit. This would include the reservoir ready to go (nipples, sealed), all the hose you would need, all connectors, in line drain, t connector. It would be as close to ready to be put on as possible. Price would be around $150-$175 shipped. This modification does as much or more than an extra heat exchanger and introduces WAY more coolant than just adding another exchanger does. One huge advantage is that you can drain the system at the track and put ice water directly into the system. Your system can be completely cooled down literally within minutes and will not heat soak the entire time at the track. Your stock IC system is a two quart system, and this kit will roughly DOUBLE that. Pictures of what my kit looks like-
Here is proof of its effects. This is a track run after cooling the car down-
102* on line-
113* after 3 gears and 96 mph, ONLY 11* INCREASE!!!-
I will add names to this list, say if you are in, if we get 15 members, i will drop the price to $160.
1) Denny (mod)- shipped
2) Spectral- on hold
3) JasZ71- pending
4) rrutter81- on hold
5) rockstarSS- on hold
6) dead zen- shipped
7) cpraider12- pending
8) USMC- shipped
9) jeanbalt- pending
10) turbotommy

does that hold almost a whole gallon? i know my big cx h/e i got on ebay almost took a whole gallon. also i love the way the front mount looks and if you use my way or flashbrandons you can get it on for less than $199 bucks. not against your way but benefits vs big cx h/e? proof it is better? also assuming you use stock h/e like me and then just add that as a add on. i am still on stock h/e and big cx h/e btw. not trying to come across dick i know a lot of people think that but just wondering if you can answer the questions above.

did you account for the fluid lost when you had to disconnect the old lines?
again, if you wanted to discuss this issue i would have appreciated if you had done it in the thread about the original swap. this thread was purely aimed at gauging a group buy. multiple members have looked at my logs and been very impressed, and you can see from the track log i posted that this works very well.
on your setup you can not drain it and fill with ice water at the track, one big advantage for this
