Stand alone options
Stand alone options Question for those who've been down this road already.
I have my direct port intake on the car now. This is the only part of the "kit" so far. My question is by experience what would be the best option for me(car in sig)? Should I run a battery dedicated stand alone cell, which would mean relocating the battery to the trunk? Or is the fuse dedicated the way to go? The battery relocation would be key in looking good, adds a little cost, but would it bring me any issues in the whole grand scheme of things? I will be spraying enough to not feel comfortable pulling fuel from the rail if that would be a question for me, but then again Im not hitting it with the kitchen sink. Ready to pull the trigger here so any and all help/advice would be very welcomed. Thanks.

You dint have to move the battery to the trunk if you have room somewhere else in the engine bay to mount it or could fab some thing up if you were to use one of ours.
Now I would recommend moving the battery to the back because our S.A.F.E tanks are meant to be mounted in a battery tray to keep that fab work to a minimum, plus the added benefit of the weight over the rear.
You wont have any problems with charging with it being in the back as long as you use a large enough wire for it.
Feel free to ask if you have an more questions or concerns.

I made my own. The battery has to be relocated. Here is the link

Also made our own.

Holley black pump
2 regulators the holley 12-803's - 1 for each stage.
mounted the cell in the driver side area, just had to move around the fuse boxes a bit. I'll snap a few pics in the next day or two.
The setup works great.

Thanks for the feedback. That S.A.F.E. tank looks killer where the battery goes(found a pic on here). I just cant wrap my head around moving the battery to the trunk yet. A 1 gallon next to the fuse area would be something good also. The off season has me bored and looking to spend a little money on the setup.

either is a good option. If you do not want to move the battery to the trunk yet, you could look at the plastic fuse dedicate. It will outlive the bottle as far as fuel. It is offered in plastic and metal so you have a couple of options. We have even had a customer mount the fuse dedicate in the nose of a F-body.
Both dedicates run 255 in-tank pump and aeromotive fuel regulator. The regulator comes with both a low pressure and high pressure spring so that you can run whatever best suits your need.
