Icon2 TODA Dry Carbon High Power Surge Tank Question.

http://www.toda-racing.co.jp/en/prod...surgetank.html

Does anyone on here have experience with one of these? I need to know if the seal is good enough to hold 2-2.5 Bar?

If you have $20k laying around, I think you can find a better use of your money.....

Pretty sure 1 yen = ~$0.01 currently, so I think that's more like $1200 actually. Looks like a nice piece at that price, and probably not a big deal if you're already dropping the cheddar on the Sports Injection kit.

Looks pretty thin for a boosted setup though. I've seen Carbon, Carbon-Kevlar, Fiberglass, an RP plenums pop from just a real small backfire before. Well, the RP technically survived but split where the halves were bonded.

Google lies! Apparently the Chinese Yuan and Japanese Yen uses identical symbols. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chinese_yuan

Direct copy/paste came up with the above. Yen makes quite a bit more sense

Itb's and boost are not mutually exclusive... But yeah, I'm not thinking it's going to handle too much positive pressure.

I have it, and yes the strut bar is cut. I don't think it will hold high boost, maybe it will. Its a expensive piece to find out.

Fully aware, I did the quick copy/paste and didn't check to see if Google picked it up as Yen - just assumed it was. I really don't think I've seen any quality parts (Mugen, Toda, J's Racing, etc) come from China.
