You need an injection fuel tank....So yes a GSi or GTE tank will be a good start.

it will work with the 1.2 tank but its not a good idea as u'll starve the pump of fuel when cornering and this can damage the pump and engine

if u cant find a gte tank then a 1.2i tank with a corsa/astra/vectra/cav MPi pump will work too

ok cheers it is just i cant get hold of one and i aint got a car till i get one i found a gsi tank it a scrappy but they put a hole in it to get the fuel out also can i use the 1.2 fuel lines and bridge the pump in to the fuel feed pipe coz i might just go out and order a new tank then use the 1.2 lines will that work

i use a carb tank on mine, like aragorn said you will need to keep at least about 1/4 tank of fuel in there.
