I was contacted by numerous members here on RS25 in regards to the ATL Tire Well Fuel Cell (8 & 12 Gallon Tanks). I am opening up with ATL this week and was going to extend the deeper discounts to you guys if interested. Depending on how many people are interested, we should be able to save you some money on these.
If there is enough interest, I'll put this in motion. I can probably save everyone around $75 (+/-) on these fuel cells. Now, this is JUST for the well fuel cell. You then have to look at internal/external surge tanks, which you can have fuel pumps installed before hand. Also, Fuel Level Sender is an additional cost as well. So this is for someone that serious about this type of setup, whether it is for track, show, or some serious spirited driving lol.
For example, here is my setup for my RSTI build:
• 8 Gallon Well Cell [171115]
• In-Tank Surge Tank w/ Walbro High Pressure Fuel Pump [GSS340]
• Fuel Sender
Total cost, before any discounts is about $1250. But with discounts etc, I will have this down around $1000.
But this is just a feeler to see how many people, if any, are serious about this. I can assist with other options (external surge tanks, etc) as well. I am opening up with ATL either way, so wanted to extend the discount to you guys as I had a number of members express serious interest. I know this is not a cheap purchase, and it is a pretty in depth modification, so this may only be of interest to a select few. But as stated, I can at least save quite a bit on these kits and share the discounts! I will leave this thread on RS25 to start, then will post on other forums as well!
Thanks!
Joe

That looks awesome lol. I may just end up with the 8 gallon, as I won't be driving it far etc. If you need help with the other pieces, let me know. What did you go with for a surge tank? Or are you doing an external one afterwards?
I want to start getting these pieces together as I plan on putting the battery in the trunk as well, so I'll have to make some brackets to hold the tank and battery down etc. So once I fab everything up, I'll then paint the trunk etc.
As for the Beatrush divider, I'm pretty sure those are discontinued. I would say that I would make one, then could sell some, but would depend mainly on the demand. As I'm seriously looking at doing the carbon fiber divider and rear deck from rallytech.co.uk. However...that's gonna be expensive lol as I want to do the interior door cards etc as well...last on my list lol.
I went back and forth between the 8 and 12, figured I dont HAVE to put 12 in it but it would be nice to have the option too. For a surge tank I really really want the one that radium makes.... But ill probably do an intank one to start.
I have bedliner to put down once everything is done . Although something like lizard skin sounds appealing too.
There are some sites that still sell the beatrush. Not sure how legit they are or if its just old stock. Making one would be sweet! I believe you need it if you dont put the cell in a box right?
