Default water sprayer reservoir & alchy kit

question: since i'm planning on having a fmic, is there anyway to use my water sprayer reservoir as the tank for my meth or 50/50 mix? is there a kit to do this? and has anyone done this?

i like the location of the tank, plus its hidden. if i don't use it for that, it won't get used for anything b/c of the fmic......

Thumbs up It can be done

Topspeed sells an inhouse kit that will use your trunk tank. The smc kit can be modded to use your trunk tank. Send your tank to steve up at smc and he will outfit the tank to be used in place of the washer tank up front.

I use the stock tank in the rear as well with a snowperformance kit. You can order all the parts from them to do the tank hook up. And you'll need about 20 feet of hose.

I have a kit from Devil's Own and am pretty happy with it. I ordered mine with a solenoid(which you will need) to close when the pump is on so that water will not leak into your pipe. I am using my winshield washer bottle which is closer than the trunk but safer is better than sorry. I installed the kiy myself and it came with everything I needed. The kit also comes with a progressive controller that you can set when the pump should come on and trun off. Prices aren't that bad either.

I'm interested in this, as well. I have the Aquamist 2d and want to use the stock tank as the reservoir. I've posted my question on Nasioc here:
