That's Aquamist 2.5 gal tank. I fill it up once every 3-5 months.
How does your tank vent? Is it just a vented cap?

Vented cap, yes.
Mounted with copious amount of silicone

Most methanol tubing is nylon 11 right? Seems like .25" OD and .17" ID is the standard. Trying to find some tubing that will fit the compression fittings that came with the Vishnu pump.

Something like this: http://www.usplastic.com/catalog/ite...3405&catid=670

Actually the tank is Snow Performance and it came with tubing. Here's similar one on ebay.

Looks like the same as this one, except no branding

Did you run your meth tubing like Former_Boosted_IS did under the car (attached photo)?

How long have you been running meth in your car?

Since the reservoir is vented cap, do you fill some meth smell in your trunk? I know that vented cap should work let the air in into the tank. I want just to make sure.

Thanks

I ran mine under the car like that. Never smelled meth when it was in the trunk with a vented cap.

Hey how do you route your hose from the tank to the pump. I am in the process of installing mine similiar to your's, but can't find a way to get the hose from under the tray below the tank to the boot with the pump.

Here is where I am at now.

Everything were fixed in my car. New harness, and tow coils replaced. The problem was the WW pump leak. I had it replaced and new Snow Performance tank installed in the trunk.

Where did you source those straps? Good idea. Also how did you secure them?

Sorry for the long delay
The straps are fixed in the cd changer bracket

The speed Shop where the meth tank was installed had the straps.
I had bought the straps like these sold at Summit buy changed with the speed shop ones
