Default A2W intercooler ice tank help...

I've done searches on here and everywhere else trying to find an ice box that about the same size as the battery for my A2W setup. I've only found one place that sells them, but at $225.00, I'd like to consider that my last option. Does anyone know where I could get an ice box for my setup that's roughly the same size as the battery and I could mount it where the battery goes up front on my setup? Also, what's everyone else doing for ice tanks. I know some guys are running tanks in the rear of the car. This is still a street driven car so it can't be too extreme for me, as in sitting in the passenger seat. Post up some pics of your setups please.

I got my water tank that mounts in the stock battery location with the OFI kit. I never tried fitting it with the stock rad, but it looks like everything would fit. I would Contact Joel @ OFI.

i had one custom built to fit where the spare tire used to be. a non sponsored company built it for $190. absolutely perfect in every way and a quick turnaround. i'll pm you the company info. they should still have the specs for mine if you're interested in it. depending on what pump you're using, you may want it a little shallower than i had mine made, because when i designed it i still didn't have a pump. had to space it up about 2" to work. if i get some time this week, i'll post up some pics.

yeah, contacted joel... that's where my $225.00 price came from. It's a nice looking unit but I'm trying to find something cheaper before I jump on that one. I looked at the link you sent me Turbo383ws6 but I only saw the 2 intercooler tanks listed on there site. I'd really like to see pics of your setup, especially if it's 35 bones cheaper,unless Joel wants to do a little price matching . Theres another one that's on the net, I'll post up the pic but not the link since it's a nonsponsor. It looks like ti would fit, but it's the one for the ford lightnings. It's $166, which I though was pretty damn good. The other option was getting someone to make one for me. I figured a manufactured option would be cheaper before I really checked into that one but I haven't ruled that one out yet. I know, I shouldn't bitch about $35.00 here and there, but it's just bugging me for some reason!!!!!!!! Thanks for the help so far guys... keep it coming.
