I would recommend the standard 5 gallon tank for capacity and ease of access if racing is your thing and to place it in the rear passenger side near where the battery sits and get a lighter battery (i.e. Z4M) to offset the weight. But it's not stealth and it intrudes on trunk space.

But this concept is fantastic and one that I would do again if I needed my full trunk. Issue is getting a large enough capacity as the larger the capacity, the more efficient the system will be and the cooler the water temps will be for longer.
