The tank locates in a collision-safe area of the trunk behind the rear seat on a bolt-on aluminum bracket with rubber vibration isolators, which keeps surge pump noise out of the cabin. The PTFE hoses come cut to length and preassembled, and they meet at a junction in the trunk through an anodized bulkhead plate with four bulkhead fittings, so the install looks finished rather than improvised.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat You'll Feel\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA surge tank mounted where a collision will not find it, not strapped into the spare wheel well\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePump noise damped by vibration isolators rather than transmitted through the body\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePreassembled PTFE hoses cut to length instead of measured and built on the car\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA tidy bulkhead pass-through in the trunk instead of hoses threaded through a grommet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA modular electrical install using a proper connector rather than spliced wiring\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAluminum mounting bracket with rubber vibration isolators\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePreassembled 3\/8in PTFE hoses, cut to length\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAnodized aluminum bulkhead plate with AN bulkhead and adapter fittings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e40 amp relay and 25 amp fuse, weatherproof\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDelphi Weather-Pack connector for fuel pump trigger activation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStainless steel hardware\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eThe Details\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is the install kit only. The surge tank and its pump are separate purchases; the store carries the Radium 20-0960 single pump fuel surge tank, which this kit is built around. The Delphi connector on the trigger circuit keeps the system modular, so the tank can be removed or serviced without cutting into the car's harness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne sizing rule matters before you order pumps. The main tank's pump is what keeps the surge tank full, so it needs to flow roughly 40 to 50 percent of whatever the surge tank pump flows. Fit a large surge pump behind a stock in-tank pump and the surge tank will run dry under sustained demand, which defeats the point. Depending on the pump you choose, a drop-in upgrade for the main tank may be required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKit Includes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePreassembled 3\/8in PTFE hoses\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAluminum mounting bracket with vibration isolators\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAnodized aluminum bulkhead plate\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAN bulkhead and adapter fittings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e40 amp relay and 25 amp fuse\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStainless steel hardware\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNOT included: fuel surge tank, surge tank fuel pump, and any main tank pump upgrade\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eApplications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1999-2006 BMW E46 3-series\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1999-2006 BMW E46 M3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eImportant Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNOT compatible with the E46 convertible\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRequires a Radium fuel surge tank and a surge tank fuel pump, both sold separately\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe main tank pump must flow roughly 40 to 50 percent of the surge tank pump's flow rate\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Radium Engineering","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43700761296963,"sku":"20-0974","price":446.45,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0064\/7754\/5539\/files\/20-0794_BMW_FST.jpg?v=1787353736","url":"https:\/\/www.tunedbyshawn.com\/products\/radium-fuel-surge-tank-install-kit-1999-2006-bmw-e46-excluding-convertible-20-0974","provider":"Tuned by Shawn","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
