It will come with detailed instructions as well as clamps to install it. Will ship anywhere. [IMG][/IMG] Thank You, PM me if anyone has questions. I have them ready to ship.

Searching the 1 series forums and found they still have issues with over flow on tightb tracks
Power steering fluid overflow during track conditions? https://www.1addicts.com/forums/showthread.php?t=280027 |

Also, your comment made me remember there was already a DIY thread on this upgrade before. And Tom from EAS says they've had success with using this on their M3 race cars. Thread: https://www.m3post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1116958 Basically what OP has done is already did the legwork for setting up a clean fitting adapter compared to all the Frankenstein trial and error in the above thread. |

Well I'm in for one. OP, you got PM!
So the feed and return ports of this new one are switched as compared to the original PS reservoir? |

I've ran my car as well as a heavier M5 at the track with these and we did about 6 hot laps with this tank and my fluid remained in the tank but I also have the Do88 PS cooler.

They are in the same location, lower port is a bit longer than the factory.

There was an article linked above that said the ports were switched. Something about there being fluid cavitation if the ports are reversed.
https://www.m3post.com/forums/showth...1116958&page=3 Can you confirm? |

This setup has been shown to work on the track so on street there will be no issues.

I prolly need one of these too.
Every time I park my car after a spirited drive, it sounds like an elf is throwing cold water on top of a hot BBQ grill underneath my damn hood as I walk away.

I've did this "fix" last year and am sorry to say I still need to tie a sock around the reservoir as it still leaks/sprays under heavy track load conditions. Granted I'm supercharged but there's no magic here folks.
