Is there any way to make an Option B Kit cheaper than buying one from ZZP or OTTP?? I think $120 for a reservoir, hose, and a few hose clamps is ridiculous honestly....LMK if there is a way or if you have done it maybe help me out and show me how....Thanks!!

Buy the parts that you just listed... Any reservoir will work reallly. Just have it sit higher than everything else like the opt b tank does

People have done it, the nice thing about ZZP and OTTP is that you can get the bracket which looks better and is nicer then trying to rig up something. I have an option b kit and brackets that I selling, less then 1k miles on it but want $105 shipped

Sounds good, actually getting ready to part out my car in about an hour so I will text you. Will be the first thing I pull!

I have an option B tank I'd like to get rid of (it's the coolant bottle from an Ion, but same thing). PM if you're interested, and I'll get you pics.

And personally, I'm more of a fan of a flow through design that keeps fluid constantly moving through the bottle...I ended up using a coolant bottle I found in the junkyard (I think from a mx3), made brackets to mount it behind my power steering pump, then plastic welded two 3/4" barbs to it.

I too am looking for something like this, so whatever the OP doesn't get I'd like to take a peak at

Another thing i wondered though, and i hate to sound stupid, but i know the bleed line goes to the H/E correct.......Which line do you replace for the larger hose??

If you bought my kit, I actually have a y-fitting and the 3/4 hose replaces the stock filler neck

I made a flow through tank

This is the flow through I made. Can't see the bottom barb in the pic, but its at the bottom of the tank facing forward. I used to threaded 3/4" barbs from a local boat supply shop, and plastic welded them.

What resevioR is that?

evilution

I think I pulled it from a MX3 or something

What do you mean the stock filler neck?? The actual tube gets removed where you put in coolant?? So where do the line in and out of the tube go to....Do you just run the 3/4 hose from the new tank into the port where it originally runs to from the filler tube??

To make it work correctly, i do need a dual pass end plate correct?? or tap mine?? Then Y the two factory hoses together and run my new one to tank??

Probably can find a good resevoir at a junk yard. There was a post a while ago says what make/modle car resivour is best though.

I would just buy a dual pass

insylem

I dont have the option B tank.
My IATs run 10 - 15 degrees hotter then IAT1.

I have pheonalic spacer, Dual pass, and OTTP Stg 1 H/E
