Default Accusump

Everyone with an Accusump - where did you mount it? I just got the 2 quart model and with my turbo system, there is not much room left in the engine bay. Lots of room in the trunk where the spare tire use to sit, so that's a possibility. I was also thinking of mounting it either behind the front bumper cover or behind the front wheel well liner. Anyone else have any suggestions?

IIRC, Krazik's is in the passenger's floor board.

He moved it, it's now in the trunk area.

With the trunk mount did you run the oil line to the accumulator under te car?

Just a quick Q on the Accusump... Is it safe to assume that with the Accusump, you do not need the baffled oil pan?

No, his car has no interior, so the oil lines run along the right side of the passenger compartment and through the firewall.

A 3qt Accusump alone has still resulted in a blown engine (spun bearing) due to oil starvation in at least one case.
