Factory: steel(can rust), lighter weight, internal baffle
Vellios: aluminum, heavier, about $100 cheaper Is there anything I'm missing here? Is one better than the other? What are you using? Brian |

If I'm spending $6K+ to stuff a six in the car, saving $100 by using a repro tank does not give me a woody. As long as the factory tanks are still available (they are) I would lean that way.
If the Vellios tank isn't baffled (your post kinda implied that, I don't know myself) then that seems like a major negative. |
