Re: Evo X upgrades

Is it just me or does the stock hanger position the pumps *a lot* lower in the tank than the FB hanger?

A fair question. The FB hanger doesn't use springs so I am assuming that they measured carefully and their fixed hanger is actually hitting the bottom. I'm also assuming that BlaqOPs cut the small hoses connecting the pumps to the hanger at the proper length so that they are actually touching the bottom of the FB hanger.

I also question the FB hanger's use of slits at the bottom since the stock hanger holds fuel...you are guaranteed to get fuel all over the place when you pull the stock hanger. It drains out on the FB hanger.

These are the main questions that I need FB to answer for me this week. I have zero interest in pinning blame on either vendor. I'm all about wanting a car that can be driven!
