Your current system will support 1000rwhp if assembled properly.

How much power are you shooting for?

Essentially you just need your same system but plumbed to a cell.

Typically the line between the tank & pump is larger, either -10 or -12 depending on the pump. The rest will probably be OK.

I can put something together for you, but for 850rwhp you are just wasting money.... your present setup will be fine.

Feel free to give me a call for more details.

Actually I just bought it.It mounts just like the stock tank and you fill it just like your stock tank.
