After doing the last GB, due to the complexity and time involved welding each tank the starting price will be $250, with five people on the list it will drop to $240, ten people I will drop to $230.

Premix tank option will be $300.

I can also make a custom tank that can be placed in a different location, pricing will be dependent on complexity.

The catch tank does block the crank angle sensor, sorry, maximizing the volume within the available space calls for it.

I can add a return line, but I have a question, how do you account for the condensation build up that's being drained back into the oil pan? Granted it's a small amount, but not ideal.

My setup has two vents as well, one from the rear turbo drain and one from the filler neck. The vents are 3/8" now.

I have extensively tested mine, well as three of my customers. All work very well, note they consistently had to drain their tanks after two/three high G track days.
