Surge Tank with twin Fuel Pumps

Hey fellas, time to beef up my fuel system. Does any one have experience with surge tanks in 997tts? I see many setups done to 996tts but not much in this department. Surge tank and Bosch 044 fuel pumps, supporting mods are alpha 3076s, injectors, boost controller and all other goodies to make it work. Fuel will be E85/ 93 out of the pump.

Are surge tanks a headache to run if I daily drive this car 4 times a week?

well i just know about the pump gas setup , we just upgrade the injectors and move to 750cc or 80lb , but running E85 may need more fueling to support ..

No experience with surge tanks but my set-up which sounds similar to your planned mods is very simple-an 044 with a pick-up line running parallel with stock pumps.

you need to know your power goals and what fuel your looking to run to have the right setup

More power/more fuel..... E85 needs about 30% more fuel roughly

Do it right the 1st time.
