What Size Surge Tank For 750-800whp?

[Sayajin]

Guys,

I know we have been discussing surge tanks a bit for the past week or 2.

However I have a question that differs from the ones we have been discussing.

Per our earlier information, the standard size for a surge tank is about 1-1.9L. It was agreed upon that anything larger is just overkill.

However I just got some information from someone stateside with a GTR as well as one of the top tuners over here. The person with the GTR was running 777WHP and was using a 1L surge tank. It seems that this surge tank was too small for his power and he had to upgrade to a larger one.

Now I just wanted to ask you guys what you thought about this since I thought it was already decided that 1-1.9L is a good size.

What do you guys think is a good size surge tank to run 750-800WHP?

As an aside, they are trying to convince me to go with a 3.7L tank. Just seems like overkill to me!

At least 3.7ltr - personally I'd go 5 ltr. If you have the return line going back to the surge tank you will get fuel heating problems if you're running a small surge tank if you are doing any extended sort of driving. I think Theo's is about the 5ltr mark (it's big).

2ltr should be enough. Thats what i would use.

If the lift pump is supplying enough to the surge, then it doesnt really matter how big it is.

Issues will arise with a surge not being big enough mainly when it doesnt get the supply.

[r33_racer]

you go too big and you need a surge tank for the surge tank.

[drf76]

anything up from 2 litres will do like like r31nismoid said, i have almost finished my setup in my skyline its about 4 litres

[NXTIME]

4-5 litres

Okay cool.... So it sounds like I should go ahead and grab that 3.7L one they are talking about.

Thanks a lot guys!
