Twin tank & turbo jset up
Turbo Mini Forums

Afternoon all, after 2 moves, kids etc I am finally getting time to working on my turbo project, after sorting out the issues & re-doing jobs that I thought I had done we are now starting to see the light, a few questions that others have probably asked but I can't seem to find the answers.

1) Twin tank set up, I have an Mpi tank & a S tank, usual flow and return, how do I connect the tanks together, the obvious way to me is to put an 8mm pipe in the "S" tank and fit the return flow to this, then connect the outlet of the "S" to the return of the MPi and then use the supply of the pump to the carb, once primed this shold work, am I correct !!.

2) Carb-turbo set up, what don't I need in the way of the valves etc that are fitted tot eh metro set up, I want it as simple & as cheap as possible.

Any help would be appreciated.

That way you would end up with a full S tank all thevtime, and running out of fuel in the MPI tank, what you need is to add is to add an extra 8mm outlet to the bottom of the mpi tank, and make the feed on the S tank 8mm, and connect these as low as possible.

Im not sure that's a good idea. I can see the S tank overflowing as the pump will move fuel quicker than gravity will return it to the other tank. Possibly anyway!

Hi mate, I ran this fine.

The mpi tank had a -6 fitting welded on it and the s tank was linked to that, and then the mpi tank plumbed in as normal.

Never had any issues with it

Have a look on my build page as I am sure there is some pics

I have started posting on Instagram also my name on there is turbomk1golf

Nothing is impossible it just costs more and takes longer.

I had an outlet braised to the bottom of the mpi tank. connected the tanks together along the bottom. Also spliced an outlet on the breather hose on the mpi tank before the valve and linked this to the breather at the top of the s tank. works well

Ok thanks for the input.
