i currently have an alloy fuel cell tank in my car, but it doesnt have a fuel sender unit so i havent a clue when im runing low on petrol and the tank doesnt seem too big :roll: anyway ive decided i want to fit a normal tank but dont know what to go for, would a spi tank work with my xe or would a mpi tank be better?? just need to know as im going to put a tank request up in the parts wated section. Im guessing the gsi tank would be best would i be right in thinking this?? Thanks People :thumb:

Yes the gsi /gte tank are the best to use, you can use a carburettor tank but when you corner and it your running below qaurter tank then its tends to splutter and when pulling away to fast
Depends if you want intank pump or external pump. GSI ones are external pump iirc. SPI ones are intank (can get the MPI pump from a corsa or astra)
