I just purchased a SPA AFFF Multi-Flo Mechanical Fire System - 4.0 L Steel bottle.
manual pull cable unit - has 6 nozzles. This is going into my street turbo car, i thought things over and felt it was cheap insurance if my car ever caught fire. It's kinda heavy at 15lbs and has 4 liter capacity but i picked it up on sale at Pegasus for 295.00. On a street car i dont think the weight and size of the tank will matter much. Post pictures if you have them on how and where you installed your tank and nozzles |

I have a fuel cell on the floor of the trunk so the bottle is where the gas tank was. I have 3 nozzles- 1 just above the fuel cell on the F trunk firewall, 1 in the middle of the dash to put my balls out if they catch fire, and 1 in the middle of the F firewall in the engine compartment.
My car did catch fire once, those little 10BC Purple K fire extinguishers don't do shit to a fire any bigger than 2 matches. |
