Default An awesome fuel starvation solution for Fuel Injection.

This is my buddies company based out of Portland, Radium Engineering. He manufactures these fuel surge tanks. I'll be using one of these in my SR1 race car. The quality is top notch.



A great video explaining exactly how they work:

Looks like about $820 for a race UTV setup (unless they make a smaller version that isn't shown on their website).

Agreed, looks interesting, I wonder how many fight with fuel issues that this would fix, probably quite a few...

We run an in tank pump with the pick-up to the rear of the tank, never had an issue. I can see where this may solve the issue with some of the newer low profile tanks people are putting under the seats, but for a regular fuel cell don't think its needed. Cool product though!
